Carson Bulter loves to fight
Apparently Carson Butler likes to fight with his own team as well.
From ESPN:
The Lions made plenty of mistakes: turnovers, penalties, dropped passes. Schwartz also had to deal with a pregame fight between tight end Carson Butler and defensive end Dewayne White, who tangled during warmups.
"I've never seen that before," Schwartz said. "The thing I like about it is they were competitive and going hard. I came in and said, 'Some of y'all thought the game started at 7 o'clock instead of 7:30.' Obviously that's something that shouldn't happen and it's already been addressed."
White hasn't put the skirmish behind him yet.
"We'll probably have to go at it one more time when we're not playing a game -- next week sometime," he said. "There's going to be bad blood between us."

Was that RR's fault too?

Moron.
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:09 AM ^
At least he is picking on people his own size these days.
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:11 AM ^
The best part about Butler is the word "former".
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:13 AM ^
I'm sure Antonio Watts will do whatever he can to keep his players from going to the Detroit Lions now.....
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:26 AM ^
Every coach should keep his players from going to the Lions.
August 23rd, 2009 at 2:02 AM ^
Cmon Carson, St. Patrick's Day in 6 months away. And I sure don't think DeWayne White is a random nerd.
August 23rd, 2009 at 4:24 AM ^
Nothing says St. Patty's Day more than Carson Butler beating up nerds.
Edit: Idiots are idiots are idiots. Carson Butler fits said description.
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:11 PM ^
Dewayne White must be a computer science major or something.
August 23rd, 2009 at 2:19 AM ^
He did score a TD
August 23rd, 2009 at 2:55 AM ^
that man is an idiot. no matter how many chances he gets, he does his best to fuck them up.
back when he was still on the team, i heard he was the scariest person in the locker room. No one wanted to tangle with him. I mean NO ONE. I'm happy RichRod kicked him off.
August 23rd, 2009 at 3:40 AM ^
fighting is fairly ubiqitious in pre season pro football, even among those on the same team. not to stand up for him but this isn't that big of a deal. just ask bill romanowski
August 23rd, 2009 at 6:45 AM ^
"I've never seen that before," Schwartz said.
August 23rd, 2009 at 9:48 AM ^
Teammates fighting on the field before a game, even a preseason game, is not.
August 23rd, 2009 at 9:57 AM ^
And I don't think you generally want a player saying he will have bad blood with another player on his team, especially to the media. Seems a bit counter-productive.
August 23rd, 2009 at 12:58 PM ^
Think about that for a moment, when you get to a game early you see the offense and the defense scrimmage a few plays, in a very light manner, its just a run through...
Its amazing someone could get that angry during a half speed run through and have so little mindfulness of where they are or what the situation is. To start a fight against a teamate who could have been injured 30 minutes before kickoff, dear lord these players are morons.

...that Jim Schwartz is now persona non grata at Detroit Renaissance. Obviously, he didn't know how to handle such an exemplary individual like Butler.
The most interesting thing about this fight is the public bad blood afterwards. White saying there might be a round 2 -- wtf did Butler do?
August 23rd, 2009 at 9:40 AM ^
if the Lions cut Butler than he can run for Detroit City Council at some point in the future. He would fit right in.
August 23rd, 2009 at 10:31 AM ^
WTF is wrong with that dude?
August 23rd, 2009 at 10:36 AM ^
It's a good thing when players get a little chippy during practice on occasion.. before a pre-season game? Really Carson?
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:03 PM ^
Are you surprised by this?
August 23rd, 2009 at 12:34 PM ^
.. but he is also a "designer camo" clothing company(!)

Someone earlier was talking about the fact that the South having internet access being a travesty. This link more or less confirms that.

My mistake. Reading a bit further, it turns out this all is going down in Indiana. Which actually isn't too far off from being the South anyway.
And as if to confirm things, from their "About Us" page:
"John Haugh is a Buckeye by birth."
Gee, really?
August 23rd, 2009 at 12:45 PM ^
This HAS to be the same Carson Butler, right?
August 23rd, 2009 at 12:58 PM ^
"Did that bitch-ass elk disrespect you? Did that punk-fuck duck quack some trash your way? Don't worry -- CB's got you covered like a jimmie hat."
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:08 PM ^
Nice.
August 23rd, 2009 at 12:38 PM ^
He's psycho.
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:05 PM ^
I remember an interview he did with Doug Karsch on mgoblue.com a while back. I'm surprised Dougy got away unscathed.
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:09 PM ^
There is only one place left for him.... THE RAAAIDERS!!! He would fit right in there.
August 23rd, 2009 at 11:45 PM ^
Or he can follow in Brock Lesnar's footsteps and join the UFC.
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:16 PM ^
At least if he continues to besmirch his own rep throughout his NFL career, it will always be as an ex-Wolverine that was booted from the team.
For all you RR detractors and Carr fans, please remember, Carr kept him, RR booted him.
I'm just sayin'
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:21 PM ^
To be fair though, Carr and Butler shared a deep-seated hatred of nerds.
August 23rd, 2009 at 2:08 PM ^
That's Ogre, you asshole.
August 23rd, 2009 at 2:18 PM ^
I just really think that their is something mentally wrong with him. I'm really glad he is no longer on the team.
August 23rd, 2009 at 11:26 PM ^
If we ever have an MGoBlog Fantasy Football League, I call first dibs on the name "C. Butler's Iron"
August 24th, 2009 at 4:28 PM ^
bfat, it was already posted and STILL ON PAGE 1
August 24th, 2009 at 4:34 PM ^
I looked to see if anyone had it up yet...but apparently not well enough.
August 24th, 2009 at 4:37 PM ^
It happens. At least most of the other threads were on page 2 or 3. At least you missed the negbang.
