Connor Halliday - Massive Douchefag

My favorite part ...

How he got his chance, realized how hard it was and went home.

What a jackass

So, he left the Redskins camp because he was pissed they didn't draft him. Sure showed them. With all he's gone through I can't summon a bit of sympathy. Neither could his wife - she bailed after two months of wedded bliss.

Probably didn't like living in her mother in-law's house... among other things.

This dude did not represent himself well in this article at all. I wouldn't hire him to make French fries at McDonalds.

“I told him when I got my signing bonus, I wanted a white BMW 760 with 20-inch rims.”

fuck, kid went to ferris, i expect this response from someone who went to rogers but fhs? gtfo.

“‘Do you know Connor Halliday? He had all the talent in the world, but it just didn’t work out for him.’”

replace "all the talent" with "system quarterback" and youre on to something

before the injury, I am Jared Goff.

and now this is getting sad

Connor had mono and an enlarged spleen in high school

now its happy, cause this is the attitude the scarlet and silver need to win

The four former Leach QBs who led the nation in passing—Kliff Kingsbury, B.J. Symons, Sonny Cumbie and Graham Harrell (twice)—combined to attempt six passes in their NFL careers. The “system quarterback” tag is difficult to shake.

this is the thesis of the article, thanks for reading

Halliday was easily distracted. Mentally and emotionally, he had tapped out. On the eve of the three-day rookie training camp, he bought a one-way ticket home.
“I felt bad about not telling coach Gruden face-to-face,” says Halliday. “But I also felt like they told me that they were going to draft me, and then they didn’t.”

but then this comes into play

he whiled away most daylight hours at Qualchan golf course

LOL, then he takes dat nfl money and plays at a public course in spokane fucking washington, cuog classy!

The fact that he signed off on this article shows "Leafist" self unawareness.

His commentary displays zero understanding or reflection that he acted like an ass, no one has his back, and his "accomplishments" are meaningless, "when you are the only one who cares."

You want to argue meaningless CFB stats?

Andre aware has a comfortable analyst job at ESPN.

This bozo will die a lonely Spokane drunk, frozen outside bar, holding his knee.

I love these sympathy human interest articles that complete ignore someone's abrasive, selfish personality. Most people who read Newsweek know little or nothing about this clown and might feel bad for him.

haie

Holy shit what a fucking loser mentality. My God.

How to not get a job:

“I had a second interview with an advertising agency the other day,” the handsome, auburn-haired Halliday says. “The interviewer made a big deal about being a leader in the classroom. I told him that my major was leading an offense.

Even the Coug forums find his comments disgusting.
