Another Judgmental Right-Winger

I wrote this for the Outsports blog. Go and read it first, and then come back here for a little bit of additional commentary, which is more appropriate on this forum than on Outsports...

So we have a pro football player -- Chris Henry -- who died after falling out of the back of a pickup truck, apparently because of some sort of domestic dispute with his fiancée, and another pro football player -- Jay Feely, a placekicker, so to many he's not really a football player -- feels the need to go on Twitter on the very day Chris Henry died and say that "Chris Henry seemed to have turned his life around. But, you can’t live on the brink of destruction without inevitably falling off the ledge" even though there's nothing indicating that anything criminal happened. Just because Chris Henry was arrested a few times in recent years automatically means he was living "on the brink of destruction" even though everyone on his team says he turned his life around?

Awfully judgmental for someone who professes on his Twitter page to being a "Christian, with political aspirations." Oh, wait -- the online Sporting News profile I mentioned in the Outsports post lists two TV shows Jay Feely watches: "Hannity" and "The O'Reilly Factor." And surprise: Feely was on Hannity's show back in June and allegedly had some discussions as to whether President Obama is a "socialist Muslim."

It all makes sense. Another Faux News-worshiping right-wing nut who wants to tell the rest of us what to do. Fortunately I have no political aspirations and can't logically be described as much of a Christian, so it's easy for me to say that Jay Feely is a douchebag and if he ever suffered a career-ending injury to his kicking leg, I wouldn't exactly be heartbroken.
