Man, some people never learn. Remember LaGarrette (which is a stupid same. What does that mean - The Garrette?) Bount from Oregon? He's the one who went all Mike Tyson on some Boise State player after last year's 19-8 loss in Boise. Well, he's at it again. After being picked up by the NFL's Tennessee Titans this off-season, Blount seemed to be the poster child for giving troubled athletes a 2nd chance. He endured the harsh standards set forth by the University of Orego coach Chip Kelly last year, and followed through with some quality playing time in the Ducks Pac 10 Championship clinching win over rival Oregon State. It appeared he was on his way to a productive career, having learned his lesson from his unfortunate encounter last September.
Fast forward to yesterday at Titans training camp.
Apparently, all The Garrette learned wasn't that much. In fact, at least last year he cheap shotted some unsuspecting, 2 star recruit, white dude from Idaho. This year, he went head to head with a NFL man-beast, who not only could probably eat The Garrette for dinner, but also was wearing a helmet. I'm not sure what is stupider - punching some dude who could clearly end you, or punching some dude who could clearly end you while the dude is wearing a helmet, making your attack utterly futile.
Hey The Garrette: It seems your anger management classes that taught you self control have worn off. Also: it seems your common sense hat was left back in Oregon. He'll probably get cut, because the last thing the Titans need is more bad publicity (thanks, Vince Young vs. the Strip Club).
The good news for the The Garrette? He could end up at Ole Miss, with his former Ducks backfield mate, QB Jeremiah Masoli.
