Jake The Snake Plummer Honors Pat Tillman Against NFL Rules

Says that if he's fined, he'll take his fine "like a man"

Nick sends this story over.

Asked recently about Plummer's sticker, NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said the league's long-standing policy prohibits personal messages on uniforms or helmets. Violators could face fines of $5,000.

"I'll get fined," Plummer said. "I'll take my fine like a man."

He said he would ask the NFL to give the fine money to the Pat Tillman Foundation, which was set up to honor him after his death.

It's just a small gesture, and it can't bring Tillman back to us, nor help win the peace in Afghanistan.

But really, a lot of what's good in life is just small gestures.

Sort of like that Miami Vice episode with Glenn Frye (the first one-- Smuggler's Blues), where Rico doesn't have a clean undershirt to go with his banana-yellow zoot suit, and Crocket just opens up his t-shirt drawer and says, "Here, man. Take mine. We're gonna need to look sharp when we meet Reyes about the drop."

And then he sticks his pinky into a bag of coke and tastes it and says, "Mmm. Pure Columbian snow."

the odd aspect of the Plummer story is that he wants to display the sticker that the NFL authorized players to wear during week 2 (the week the NFL publicly honored Tillman).

why not let the players wear the sticker for the remainder of the year? especially players like Plummer (and Tedy Bruschi of the Pats) who played with Tillman in college. (BTW Plummer played with Tillman in college and in the pros.)

I saw this story last night, on ESPN's MNF pregame show, and the reporter giving the story said that Jake said it was just too hard to take that sticker off his helmet. As small a gesture as it ends up being, it really elevates him above the rest of the NFL, and many of us civilians.
Thank you for helping keep Pat's sacrifice fresh.

Tillman served in my regiment, and I have always been
a Broncos fan. Clearly, Jake Plummer is a quarterback
who gets it.

Now I feel like a jackass. This is what happens when
you stay up all night drinking. Please refrain from
associating me with The Regiment. I have only spoken
for myself.

When I heard about the fines I was stunned. What a bunch of crap! If the powers that be over at the NFL are so afraid of alienating football fans, maybe they should rethink the whole cost of tickets to a game. But I digress. I honestly think every player should still be wearing Tillman's number...fine be damned! I never paid much attention to Plummer before, but you better believe I will now.

P.S. Don't you be mocking me with that Miami Vice stuff now! I've been through this with one man already, I don't need another one.

P.P.S. If I play Columbian drug lord hostage, will you play Crockett and come rescue me?

What is the UK Regime's plan for protecting the citizens from the savage criminals they've foisted on the populace? They offer NONE. They do, however, have a plan for protecting the savage criminals from the citizens: The citizens must STAY CALM and not get angry and not share videos of citizens being attacked by savage criminals.
The public keeps saying "protect us from the foreign savages you have imported against our wishes and over our objections" and the UK branch of The Regime keeps proposing plans to protect the foreign savages from the public. Soclose to what the public is demanding, just, you know, the complete opposite.
Just a thought: Maybe you wouldn't have to worry about the public attacking the savage criminals if you actually introduced a plan to protect the public from the savage criminals. Maybe they wouldn't feel as if it was necessary for them to protect the public through self-help.
