Player suing TCU once praised coaching, medical staff

BY Big Steaming Pile

Former TCU wide receiver Kolby Listenbee once had great things to say about the people he is currently suing.

Listenbee filed a lawsuit against TCU football coach Gary Patterson, the Big 12 conference and TCU for rushing him back to the field from injury that, he feels, has hurt his pro career.

A pro career has seen him land on the practice squads of three NFL teams and play in zero NFL games. He's on a future's contract with the Indianapolis Colts.

You never know you are really hurt and need money until some lawyer tells you that are and do...

Once again the lyrics of the Eagles “Get Over It” rings true...

I turn on the tube and what do I see
A whole lotta people cryin' "Don't blame me"
They point their crooked little fingers at everybody else
Spend all their time feelin' sorry for themselves
Victim of this, victim of that
Your momma's too thin; your daddy's too fat
Get over it
Get over it
All this whinin' and cryin' and pitchin' a fit
Get over it, get over it
You say you haven't been the same since you had your little crash

“But you might feel better if they gave you some cash

The more I think about it, Old Billy was right
Let's kill all the lawyers, kill 'em tonight
You don't want to work; you want to live like a king
But the big, bad world doesn't owe you a thing
Get over it
Get over it
If you don't want to play, then you might as well split
Get over it, get over it
It's like going to confession every time I hear you speak
You're makin' the most of your losin' streak
Some call it sick, but I call it weak
You drag it around like a ball and chain
You wallow in the guilt; you wallow in the pain
You wave it like a flag, you wear it like a crown
Got your mind in the gutter, bringin' everybody down
Complain about the present and blame it on the past
I'd like to find your inner child and kick its little ass
Get over it
Get over it
All this bitchin' and moanin' and pitchin' a fit
Get over it, get over it
Get over it
Get over it
It's gotta stop sometime, so why don't you quit
Get over it, get over it
Get over i

Not to defend Listenbee or his lawyers, but I used to speak up for my first wife. It wasn't until later that I learned just how poorly I'd been treated. People can be confused, deluded, or just plain ignorant.

Spoken like a true insurance adjuster making money off the misery of others.:)

I'll see your Eagles and raise you one John Mortimer the Author of Rumpole of the Bailey.

"Horace Rumpole: You know, it's a most extraordinary thing, my Learned Friend. We go through all the mumbo-jumbo, we put on the wig, and the gown, we mutter the ritual prayers, "If your Lordship pleases", "Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury", abracadabra, fee fie foe bloody fum. And just when everybody thinks you're going to produce the most ludicrously fake piece of cheesecloth evidence, there it is, clear as a bell! The truth! Don't you find it? You know, it's bloody scary sometimes, ha ha, but there it is, the truth. Naked and embarrassing!"

And yes, I know the outer was taken out of context, but the world seems want to prefer the phrase as is.

Popularity polling has been sinking ever since...

Kill all the lawyers is glowing?

No, we probably shouldn’t care what he says, but it doesn’t mean he wasn’t spot on. A stopped clock is even right twice a day.

Yes, “kill all the lawyers” was glowing. It was a quote by a character who wanted to usurp the throne and thought he could do so by disrupting law and order. Killing the lawyers first was a recognition of their place as the front-line guardians of civility.

Was I supposed to type something here?

No, we probably shouldn’t care what he says, but it doesn’t mean he wasn’t spot on. A stopped clock is even right twice a day.

I sat through a lecture by a Law School Dean who spent a good hour explaining to those of us gathered that what Shakespeare was saying was that to destroy the legal framework of a country, one had to exterminate it's guardians. The characters in 'Henry VI' who were speaking during that Act were the villains, and wished to plunder England while a weak and addlebrained King was on the throne. Thus, to eliminate the legal framework which prevented their acts, or, at least slowed them down, the lawyers would have to be eliminated.

During this speech, I was sitting next to a man who had just endured a long ordeal with a fellow named Jim Lerach. The gentleman did not find much truth in the words of the Law Dean...

See above.
