OT: AR Coach Bobby Petrino - Idiot
It comes out that his motorcycle wreck a few days back was not a solo wreck - a 25 year old blonde staffer was riding as well. Oh, and both the University and Petrino himself tried to sweep that little tidbit under the rug. Oh, and Petrino is married if course... And the staffer is engaged.
Thankfully both are without serious injuries...but it looks like Petrino's motor cycle wreck will now turn into a train wreck for him.
That he spent the year traveling the country with ESPN as a college football analyst.
with guys not in power. But at least with them we leave it to the people involved to work things out, instead of passing judgement about it on blogs and twitter.
...that I have not read before about RR doing coeds a WVU. And I'm fairly familiar with what is being posted. And after reading Three and Out I just don't see RR in that light.
I have heard both these rumors before and there are rumors floating around of a ton of other coaches. But the thing is, unless a Petrino-esque thing happens to them, they're always going to be just that, rumors. The sources of most of these rumors seem to be from the bitter fandoms that the coaches left behind or the bitter fandoms of teams that keep losing to the coaches. Because of that, they're hard to take seriously without proof.
If it happens that the rumors are right, rake them across the coals. Much like what we're doing to Petrino now. To do that to a family is crap. To do that to a fiance is crap. And they deserve all the crap being thrown their way. But spreading unsubstantiated rumors and gossip that are coming from people with grudges isn't that great either.
A turd in the punchbowl
She assessed the aptitude of prospective employees for learning and problem-solving in a range of occupations?
Apparently this is more than just a person giving another person a lift.
Updated from the ESPN article: "Petrino apologized and said he had been concerned about protecting his family and keeping an "inappropriate relationship from becoming public."
Maybe these 2 people deserve each other.
Bobby Petrino: When he cheats on you, he keeps it on the DL. Because Bobby Petrino cares.
and there you have it folks...anither example of why riding on a motorcycle is not the appropriate place for "the reacharound"
Bobby Petrino must a) know a lot of bus drivers and b) be strong from throwing people.
The original version of his story was a pretty amusing read really. I was not aware that, whenever Bobby Petrino wrecked something, there was a woman in the vicinity who was willing to take him to the hospital personally. Obviously, this is one of those little-heralded perks of being the Razorbacks' coach.
The final quote from Petrino was pretty funny to me as well:
"I spent the day at the lake with my wife working. She works me hard when I’m up there."
I would imagine she will not be working him as hard for a long time now.
She is really damn hot though.
Please be sarcasm.
I wish I had your standards.
Yeah, she looks like Gregg Williams affected her head. Not attractive.
between ethics and SEC football.
What a strange way to dispose of your prostitute, Bobby. Call me next time for pointers.

He was not wearing a helmet at the time of the accident. He's lucky he didn't sustain a life-threatening closed-head injury.*
*Yeah, I know real red-blooded American men don't wear motorycycle helmets because if they do the terrorists win.
Honest question...no joke. And was she hurt?
but apparently she wasn't hurt. She went to her car and drove home after the accident, while Petrino went to the hospital.
Harley scratched.
He's gonna need to start wearing a helmet around the house. His wife probably has access to a 5 iron.
The helmet would have inhibited face sucking with Miss Jessica.
On a Hoover, the dirtbag is on the bottom.
Old joke. Seemed appropriate for Petrino.
This actually put a smile on my face. Bobby Petrino is an absolute piece of shit. Something like this couldn't happen to a better guy. I hope his wife takes him for all he's worth.
You deserve to be upvoted with the old system for that.
This one wins the internet today.
What a huge fucking surprise that the guy who ditched the Atlanta Falcons in the middle of the season has wife-commitment issues too. I'm absolutely blown away. Shocked.
Understandably, Robert (Bobby) Addresses News Media Establishing Youngster's Existing Relationship.
Why would you even lie about this?
"One of my coworkers had always wanted to ride on a motorcycle, so I offered her a quick ride one evening so she could experience it. Sadly we wrecked."
That plays a lot better than the coverup. The cover up screams non innocent contact.
an inappropriate relationship with her. Maybe that means his wife and or the AD knew about the prior affair, and if they found out her name, it would be obvious that it wasn't innocent.
Bingo!
My guess is that Mrs Petrino was already not a happy gal over this new employee so reporting her on the bike would not be cool on the homefront. Hence the seeminly needless lie.
My guess is that he wasnt lying to save his job....he was lying to save his marrage.
I wonder if the video of her "interview" will ever be on the internet.
Does this really surprise anybody? That guy has always been a snake, even by SEC standards. He left the Falcons to take the Arkansas job after less than a season. He was constantly flirting with other jobs while he was at Louisville (including a well-publicized secret interview with Auburn while Tommy Tuberville was still employed as their coach). It was only a matter of time before he started flirting with other women as well.
Being the coach of an SEC football program and earning a seven-figure salary tends to help.
