DeSean responds to Jaguars kicker
Jeff McLane
DeSean Jackson responded to Josh Scobee's tweets Sunday night in which the Jaguars kicker called the Eagles wide receivers a "punk" after he was flagged for taunting.
"This man @joshscobee is Waaaaaaay outta LIne!! Stick to ya Own business.. Mind ya own!! I don’t respect what u sayin.. Lil Boi status,” Jackson wrote.
Jackson then followed up with another tweet: “I don’t even know who this guy is."
Apparently. Scobee's Twitter sign-on is @JoshScobee10.
Here's what Scobee initially wrote:
“Desean Jackson is a punk. #growuputinybastard.”
And then, after some readers complained about his first tweet, Scobee wrote:
“Relax people. He’s just a punk, which to me means he doesn’t respect anyone or anything around him. Therefore, I don’t respect him.”
Scobee apologized a day later, writing, "Shouldn’t have called Desean Jackson that, I used the wrong words to try and make my point.”
Eagles tackle Todd Herremans was confused by the apology. "Which 1? Punk, tiny or bastard?" Herremans wrote.
Eagles guard suggested on Twitter that MTV should bring back celebrity death match so Jackson and Scobee can settle their differences.
The Eagles do not play Jacksonville in their final six games.
Bummer.
Could someone translate what Jackson said for me?— gho_matt- DeSean can drive me crazy when he pulls those stupid stunts, but he also is a playmaker and a game breaker, and a very exciting player when he is on his game.— racn4acure
- I'm still laughing over #growuputinybastard.— ekw555
- Just another twitter gangsta !— Dat Why Whut !
- Truth hurt? He is a Punk!!!— chuntz
- Jackson should learn how to keep his childish behavior at home and maybe none of this would have happened. He acts like a punk. That's why people are calling him a punk. Maybe he can go put his head on Drew's shoulder and cry a little.
- I don't think calling people names solves anything but Desean needs to understand that childish behavior will get him no respect from other professiopnal atheletes— phillysmart
- He is a punk though!! When you throw the ball to other coaches, where is the respect? He plays for my team but he is a punk!— likhon
- Truth hurts. DJax is just another punk hood rat.— DennyP
- DennyP,
What makes you the expert on "punk hood" rat's? I could have respected your opinion if you would have stuck with the main point, but obviously you could not control your ignorance and racism and had to throw in the "hood rat" comment. Grow up.— rwilson065 - I'll always respect DJax after he met that kid that was being bullied. What has this Scobee character done for anyone besides sit on his arse and tweet?— Bill Lumbergh
Comment removed.- Comment removed.
