The Dumbest Man Alive

James Harrison. NFL defensive player of the year, Super Bowl hero, and dumbest man alive. But who needs a brain when you can do this?

Harrison had this to say about the Super Bowl Champion Steelers' upcoming visit to the White House to meet President Obama:

"This is how I feel; if you want to see the Pittsburgh Steelers, invite us when we don't win the Super Bowl. As far as I'm concerned, he [Obama] would've invited Arizona if they had won."

Suddenly Mike Tyson seems comparable to Stephen Hawking.

Somehow the timeless tradition of championship teams from every national sport visiting the White House has escaped Harrison not once, but twice.

He chose not to attend the teams visit after winning the Superbowl XL for presumably the same reason. This fact also clears any suspicion of political views determining his absence.

Perhaps unparalleled stupidity and not work ethic and sticktoitiveness is the real reason Harrison continued to pursue his dream of being an great NFL player despite being cut numerous times.

If that's the case, he better hope his big pile of money masks a glaring lack of intelligence or is enough to afford a pocket copy of Idiot's Guide to Life because this type of disconnected, willful ignorance will land him in a Madoff scheme or a bright orange jumpsuit.

But I have to thank James Harrison for providing me with the most entertaining nugget of stupidity since this little gem of a couple years ago.
