Armchair Quarterback

NJ man arrested in mother’s closet after calling police, demanding to speak to Tim Tebow | ProFootballTalk

You can't make this **** up:


"The New Jersey Herald reports that Jason Slater of Hopatcong, New Jersey was arrested on charges of creating false public alarms after calling 911 three times on June 10th and then refusing to give dispatchers any idea about why he was calling. Slater then called police headquarters and demanded to speak to Jets quarterback Tim Tebow while claiming to be the President of the United States.

Police went to Slater’s house to make sure that there wasn’t any emergency and found him hiding under some pillows in his mother’s closet. Slater, who is 28, was arrested at that point.

Slater greeted the officers with expletives and was taken to the police station for processing. Slater was then observed throwing his summons on the ground after leaving the station, earning him another summons for littering."

All the qualifications of a Jet fan:

Delusions of grandeur
Lives at mom's house
In the closet
Speaks only in expletives

I feel the urge to Tebow right now.

Urgent

Did the police confiscate his green fireman's helmet?

There was an article on Patriots.com a few years back that described them accurately called "The Jersey Sure" if anyone else had the pleasure of reading it.

Basically, when one their present "Heroes" doesnt pan out (Sanchez), they jump to next "Sure thing" (Tebow) in their minds. Throughout history this same pattern has played itself out over and over.

Antonio Cromartie is 28.
With all the kids he has surely at least one must be named Jason Slater.
I think its him, and he gave the police the worng name.

People in that family have a history of giving the wrong name or at least not remembering them. He should change their names to 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13 and on and on and on.

......Actually Cro-magnon might have trouble with that method too .

What I want to know is could a better description of a Jets fan be made up? This is priceless!!

Hiding in his Mom's closet under a bunch of pillows strangely reminds me of the movie ET.

Don't laugh. That's exactly how I spent the rest of the day after the Giants SB wins.

Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.
This is known as "bad luck." RAH

I wonder if he tried to use his PSL as collateral with the bail bondsman?
