re: Stereotyping A Recruit

I'm going to express my ideas about tattoos and leave it. I'm a libertarian and you can do whatever you want with your body.

I've worked out in a gym with older guys for 30 years. Many were from WWII and are now dead. A lot had tattoos. Got some Vietnam vets still here. I've never met one who wasn't sorry that he got them. They all regret getting tattoos.

When my 2 kids were young I told them "People spend millions of dollars removing imperfections on their bodies. Why would you pay to put an imperfection on your body?"

My kids are in their 30s. No tats. My son married a girl with none. My daughter married a good guy with a small one on his lower leg. Covered by sock. He regrets it.

It doesn't mean that you are a bad person. Walt Disney was a chain smoker. It means you made a bad decision that you will regret.

Do Jerry Sandusky,Catholic priests,jeffrey dahmer,hitler,ted bundy etc,have neck tats?

Tats are fine if they can be hidden with a sleeve. But if you have 2 QBs and can only take one, would you rather the guy who is clean cut or the one with ink covering his neck?

I want the guy that:

1) can read a defense and make a split second decision
2) can throw the ball on a line and hit WR on timing routes
3) can lead my team and have the confidence the offense when things are down.

I would give two shits about his tatoo's!!

I'm not hiring some dude with a neck tat. I'm a professional and need my people to look like grownups with an education. Not some hood rat athlete who would be knocking off liquor stores if not for basketball or Chalmette trailor trash with a couple of different baby mamas. Because I care about my bottom line and not making some social statement. Fact is, qualified people don't look like that. You can say what if, but if grandma had nuts she would be grandpa. Get a haircut and try to look and act like a grown man with his shite together.

As for athletes, I couldn't care less. He is either going pro or going to be a fry cook serving me after a long night swilling martini's with the non-tattoo showing crowd. I won't care once he is through entertaining me.
