THE PESSIMIST: “King of Turds” Returns
September 17th, 2008Well, everyone’s favorite tight end is back with the Bucs. That means a good guy who clearly had a lot of fans in the area is gone, Ben Troupe.
Jerramy Stevens, who last year was revealed to have a less than angelic past while attending the University of Washington, is back on the roster after serving a two-game suspension for “extreme DUI.” Imagine?
Stevens is such a man of high moral honor, he was awarded with the prestigious ProFootballTalk.com’s all-time All-Turd team.
“This guy was the King of the Turds even before his antics at the University of Washington were chronicled by the Seattle Times. And yet he somehow still has a job in the league.”
This distresses Joe a great deal. It’s not like the Bucs are in desperate need of a backup tight end. So why put such a scumbag back on the roster. Or do the Glazer Boys not care to sell tickets or gear to women? Seems as though the Bucs are pushing tickets. So why alienate half of your market with this piece of human debris?
While Joe is not a Gators fan, he marveled at Troupe in college. The former first round pick of Tennessee, Troupe was a steal as a backup Joe thought. Certainly better than the “King of Turds.”

i don’t know what bothers me more…having him on the team now or knowing that after he retires (or more likely gets kicked out of the league) and gets arrested and sent to prison, the media will refer to him as “former Bucs tight end”

You’re right. Fans remember where Turds came from when they ‘leave’ the game and they associate those thugs with the team they played for.
I know the Bucs organization is deeply entrenched in the happenings in the Tampa Bay area. They do A LOT of good things. Why they would want to give the team a black eye and sign/resign this rapist is beyond me.
Oh’Boy he got some TDs last year, 4 I believe. What does this show young up and coming players of fans for that matter?? This dude raped a woman and got away with it. 🙁 He should be raped every day in prison!

He’s only here because the fans didn’t put up enough of a stink. The guy needs to be booed whenever he touches the ball.

I agree. The Bucs will listen if WE the FANS stand up and not sit back and take this. He doesn’t belong on any pay roll nor on any team.
I got sick to my stomach last year when during a game my idol and football hero was standing next to this human trash refuse and appeared to be actually having a conversation with him. The RAPIST should be chemically castrated! If that was my daughter he raped…well lets just say I know where the rapists gets his pay check and practices. That’s all I’m saying. (Crosshairs can reach out and touch someone)

[…] of the Bucs by (potentially) replacing a five-star a-hole (no, not Alex Rodriguez) like the King of Turds for a four-star a-hole??? The guy who thinks he’s some dime store Green Beret, cheap shot […]
