JOE HAMILTON LEADS BY EXAMPLE
Former Georgia Tech qb Joe Hamilton just joined the Yellow Jacket coaching staff to assist young players in adjusting to life. And as all great leaders do, Lil’ Joe leads by his own example.
A former Georgia Tech quarterback, just hired to help football players adjust to campus life, was arrested for driving under the influence, possession of marijuana, open container and hit and run on Tuesday, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Ever elusive, Hamilton dodged the first hit before campus police pulled him over and got him to admit the hit and run, along with emptying the car and finding the weed and open container combination. The things we love most about this:
One: That he was hired to help kids adjust to college life. Um, TOP SCORE!, Joe.
Two: When people take weed and an open container with them. There’s a very American mentality to it: if I can sit in my living room and utilize a luxury, it should therefore be able to come in the car with me, be it television, booze, weed, my XBox, television…all of it can go mobile, baby. We encourage the trend: the deep-fryer between the seats, the Wii in the dashboard, and especially the mobile meth lab.
Um, wait. Perhaps that’s not such a good idea after all. Baton Rouge, stand up! We mean, duck.

Joe Hamilton: Mobile and explosive, like a meth lab.

@4…..fan-fucking-tastic sir. That was great
@22….I’m not sure which way to go with this. I could make an OJ Simpson joke….with him stealing his own shit. I could make a Ron Dayne stole it, put mustard on it, and ate it joke……but I’ll just say fuck Ron Dayne and Joe Hamilton….Shaun Alexander should’ve won that shit.

@15 - “Ouch”
I’m sorry. Did you say that GT was better at counting?
Reggie Ball does not agree.

Don’t lie. You’d be drinking and smoking as well if Ron Dayne stole your Heisman.

RCR, everyone knows that lab was on it’s way from Lafayette to Auburn or somewhere. Just because it blew up in the shining beacon on the hill of Baton Rouge doesn’t mean it belonged here. It was M-O-B-I-L-E. Like the only library whatever backwoods parish you’re from could afford. But the State Troopers did say they were certain it was Lafayette in origin. It was the frosted tips/muscle shirt on the guys and the multiple stamps for The Keg and City Bar on their hands.
On a serious note, do you have my email?

Lawrence Phillips laughs at the childish antics of your former student athletes. Why don’t you grow a pair, Joe Hamilton, and commit crimes like a man.
On a side note, given his role on the coaching staff, this would kind of be like that teacher I had in high school who would always leave study hall early to go drink at his bar and just leave us alone and unattended until the bell rang. That guy was my hero then, and I imagine if I was a Georgia Tech football player, Joe Hamilton would be my hero now.
(Needless to say I never accomplished much in study hall).

“You avoided being a trouble maker for all the years you were in school and in the Arena league”, either that, or he avoided being caught legally.
And while he had no legal transgressions “in school” at Georgia Tech, he wasn’t really “in school” either, as shown by the NCAA sanctions Georgia Tech University recently received.

Also, Reggie thought it was only 3 charges. He totally had one more to go.
I’m waiting to see how he will shame the institute more than he already has. He was so awful, it’s inevitable. I think I’m starting to consider the possibility that the real culprit was Reggie in a Joe Hamilton suit, MiB-style. Reggie also lied about 9-11.

You mean other than “counting”, “ability to read”, and “wearing shoes to work”?

God fucking damn it, Joe. You avoided being a trouble maker for all the years you were in school and in the Arena league, then shoot it all to shit after you graduate and get a coaching gig at your alma mater. What the fuck is your problem? Are you trying to make PJ and Georgia Tech look like giant fools? Because you’re doing a goddamned good job of it! You had a good thing going and you give it up for drankin’ and smokin’. Bra-fucking-vo, you piece of shit.
I’ve never really gotten mad at the indiscretions of people I really don’t know, but I’m actually pissed off about this. Coach Johnson went out on a limb and hired the old star QB to help out (and make boosters swoon, no doubt) then Hamilton thanks Coach by dropping trou and taking a big ol’ shit on him. What an asshole.

This is the kind of Fulmer Cup hijinks that we’ve been waiting for. I just hope Joe stays in Atlanta and leaves the countryside of North Fulton for reckless alumni of other institutions. Georgia Tech should receive bonus points for authority figure transgressions.
How was RP NOT involved in the rolling meth lab?

Warm it up Kris I’m about to
Warm it up Kris cause that’s what I was born to do
So many times I heard you rhyme but you can’t touch this
I’m kicking the type of flow that makes you say “You’re too much Kris”
So feel the fire of the one they call the Mac Dad
The fire’s what I pack and what I pack is real bad
I’d like to grab a hold of your soul and never let go
Never ’til they jump, ’til they say Hoooo
Now that’s the state of mind I’m in huh…
With rhyme after rhyme I win

The miggida miggida miggida Mac came to get a warm
And my pants to the back that’s my everyday uniform
You little cream puff Mac Daddy wannabe
Keep dreaming cause the Mac you will never be
So all y’all with the Dr. Seuss riddles
You can get the finger… the middle
Warm it up Kris I’m about to
Warm it up Kris cause that’s what I was born to do
Warm it up Kris I’m about to
Warm it up Kris

You know it’s sto it’s sto
Peepin at my rhymes it’s dope it’s dope
And for you there’s know call my name what?
The Daddy Mac, baby, Totally Krossed Out
Catchin’ all the ladies
The age I be I should be playin with toys
Instead I put my hand into make you make noise
That’s how I kick it that’s my everyday life and
I rehearse to keep it sharp as a knife, man
I’m the wrong brotha that sucks to be messin’ with
Cause when I put the mic in my hand I start wreckin’ it
They call me the D-A-double D-Y-M-A-C
And there ain’t another brotha bad as me
When I let go
Somethin’ from the ghetto
Word, a little brother kickin’ rhymes like you never ever heard
Daddy of them all shootin to kill like a gun
Showin’ suckas how it’s done
Warm it up Kris I’m about to
Warm it up Kris cause that’s what I was born to do (repeat 3 times)
Yea, now you all know

And the Mac to all that
Yea.. we gonna kick one more verse for you all
So many times I heard you rhyme but you can’t touch this
I’m kicking the type of flow that makes you say “You’re too much Kris”
So feel the fire of the one they call the Mac Dad
The fire’s what I pack and what I pack is real bad
I’d like to grab a hold of your soul and never let go

So can coaches rack up Fulmer Cup points? If so Tech might actually beat Georgia at something.

personally, i commend joe on the fine work he is doing
i know that when i was an undergrad at OU, it took me until well into the second semester of my sophomore year to perfect the art of driving with an open natty light while smoking weed - had i had a man like joe hamilton there to help me adjust to campus life, i could’ve been terrorizing the streets of norman within weeks of my arrival

Unfortunately the charges cannot be blamed on / divided between multiple personalities … or can they. Someone call Herschel’s lawya.

I see you finally found a way to work the Baton Rouge mobile meth lab into a post. Good work…although I was hoping for a Perriloux or Miles joke to go with it. But this works.

Georgia Tech football is a total disaster.
This year might be worse for them than 2007 was for the Irish.

OK, the DUI and marijuana possession are pretty cut-and-dried, but you gotta cut the guy some slack on the hit-and-run; we all know he can barely see over the steering wheel.
