Daunte Culpepper - First Class Jerk
Posted By Paul on February 3, 2005
Just when you think that multi-millionaire professional athletes couldn’t sink much lower, Daunte Culpepper shows that the bottom isn’t even in sight yet.
The Minnesota Vikings quarterback presented a paralyzed high school football player two diamond necklaces worth about $75,000 during an NFL awards ceremony, but then awkwardly asked for them back after it was finished.
I guess I shouldn’t be surprised, but still, you have to wonder what was going thru the moron’s brain to pull a stunt like that. To his credit, he promised to get Townsend “something else.”
Let’s hope it’s not an autographed picture of himself.

My only explanation is this is a coordinated attempt by the Vikings players to take all the heat off of Randy Moss by finding ways to out-shame him. I expect that the next news story we’ll read is Michael Bennett dropping by an animal shelter to kick puppies.

Culpepper was actually the good guy in all this.
BTW - I like the new design
