Los Angeles Times Writer Blasts Rampage Jackson

Calls Rampage "the dumbest athlete of the year".....
Los Angeles Times columnist, Bill Plaschke (who also appears on ESPN's "Around The Horn"), recently posted a video blog on the LA Times website where he blasts Quinton "Rampage" Jackson for his run-in with the law this week. The following is a quote from the video:
"I want to offer my early nomination for dumbest athlete of the year to Quinton Jackson. He was arrested while fleeing to Newport Beach. Who flees to Newport Beach? When you flee, you flee to the stateline. You run for the border. Quinton "Rampage" Jackson great fighter, dumb guy."
Maybe it was because he was mentally fucked from staying up for 4 days and drinking energy drinks.
That's why he was dumb

All those guys on ATH and PTI are idiots when it comes to MMA.

Bill Plaschke is the same reporter who said the Lakers would win the NBA title in 5 games over the Celtics.
He made one bad move, get over it.

So if this guy's so smart, shouldnt he know better than to talk trash about some one who can kill him 8 times before he even hits the ground?

....Take anything....ANYTHING said about MMA by ANY ESPN personality or mainstream sports-writer with a five-pound bag of salt. 90% of the time, they're elitist jag-offs who still refer to the sport as "ultimate fighting," which I know pisses off more than a few fans, trainers AND fighters. One of their anchors actually had to ASK Rampage why he hadn't fought since the Henderson fight. HE HAD AN INJURY TO HEAL, ASS! My God, researching these things ahead of time is not that hard.

Rampage has suffered a mental breakdown - so to attribute this 'chase' to his intelligence is ridiculous.
Bill Plaschke is a tool.

Plaschke is useful when it comes to rattling off baseball stats, outside of that he is completely out of touch with just about everything. Making a comment about someone else's intelligence without knowing their mental state....yeah that a class move.

Wow! A brother make one bad move and he get the book thrown at him. I know he made a mistake, but who are you to judge him. It's way more bigger problems going on than worrying about what Rampage did.

What he loses a fight and frigin can't deal with it. You don't see Iceman or Hughes or Franklin or Silvia doing ignorant shit like that do ya. Rampage needs to find another job.

Bill you dink - you have no clue what you're talking about. Did you ever think he was not attempting to flee but rather get to a more comfortable place to surrender? Add to this the 4 days of sleep deprivation, and obvious reculting psychological impact, and you get someone making terrible decisions. Do some research, get some humility, and revise your position. You Dink!

I still think Rampage was pissed about being "netted" by Forrest G. He was mentally broken by a net!!!
