NFL: Is Tim Tebow the next Steve Young?

By Douglas Bennett on Mon, 06/10/2013 - 8:17pm

To lighten up the political discussion here in Boston, with the most popular athlete in the world coming to understudy Tom Brady as the future Quarterback of our New England Patriots, I ask all those who participate on UniversalHub.com to give their answer on whether they believe that Tim Tebow is the second coming of Steve Young? Please answer any way you like.

... are both left handed and fast runners. I expect that Belichick will use both Brady and Tebow on the field at times in attempts to fool the defense.

It will usually be with Brady serving as some sort of decoy and Tebow being the Quarterback.

I expect that this move will bring our fourth Super Bowl Championship.

Yes this is my prediction and it will occur in the Meadowlands, New Jersey, home of the enemy New York Jets and New York Giants.

I would love to hear your opinion.

Apologize to the person whose phone number you published in this forum in your ridiculous quest to try and prove who I am. Admit it, you lied about the whole thing. Admit you don't know who I am, that I never called your opponent's campaign manager and I'll forget the whole thing.

Oh, and Doug, it's funny that I don't see mention of this incident in your campaign literature.

From Boston.com March 13,2006, regarding your tenure as a Nantucket politician:

(Bennett was)removed as vice chairman by his fellow selectmen because of questions about his commitment and his knowledge of the town charter.

A history of wacky behavior and wrongly doxing people you don't even know, that really bodes well for your chances to become Sheriff.

... for promotion to Sergeant because of cronyism and dirty politics. The Police Officer who had been screwed over was Bill Higgins. According the collective bargaining contract between the Police Department and the Municipal Government, to be promoted to Sergeant, you had to pass the Sergeant exam.

Higgins passed the exam with flying colors, yet it was decided to give the promotion to another officer although he did not pass the exam. I spoke out against this injustice and in favor of Higgins because Higgins was not getting the rights that his police union fought for when they negotiated their contract with municipal officials.

My rivals on the Board of Selectmen and County Commissioners, specifically then Chairman Michael Glowacki and another gentleman named Brian Chadwick who I had defeated to win election to the Board, supported the other guy and did not like how I brought this issue to the attention of the public. However, by speaking out it was the right thing to do.

So if you want a Pro-Union Sheriff who is going to speak out and fight for the Police and Law Enforcement, one who will ensure our correctional officers and jail guards are working in safe conditions, and lastly a Sheriff who will stand up for the working people and fight injustice, cronyism, and dirty politics, then I ask for your vote because I am that man of the people!

Bottom line:were you removed or not? You were.

And which people are you a man of, certainly not people of integrity? Certainly not honest people, because you sure have proven yourself to be a liar while claiming the God's honest truth.

Given your recent erratic behavior, your history of being banned from another site for your erratic behavior and now your publishing the phone number online of someone you did not even have the courtesy to send a PM to the webmaster to even ask him if it was me ( he knows who I am), your chances of ever holding an elected office anywhere diminishes with every word you write.

So admit it, Doug, do the right thing. You don't know me, Frank Perullo never spoke to me, and you are proving yourself unfit to run for animal control, let alone Sheriff.

My comment is:

Is dvdoff lying, or are you? Care to weigh in without dissembling, shifting or changing the subject?

Dvdoff

I criticized Dougie a while ago on Uhub and he did the same thing to me as he did to you. He said he knew who I was and even called me by my first name, "Wayne", and then made up some story about why Wayne was criticizing him. But my name is not Wayne and Dougie does not know who I am.

In answer to your question about whether Doug is a liar, yes he is. I am intrigued by the comment about him being banned from another website. Which one?

And if you ever had the misfortune to meet him in person, you would notice that in addition to his wackiness, aggressive behavior, and lies, he has incredibly bad teeth. Just sayin...

From a 2006 Boston.com article about Dougie:

Others have faulted Bennett for recklessness, after he accused another islander of extortion on an online message board dedicated to Nantucket politics. Grant Sanders, the administrator of the popular website, known as YACK, said he suspended Bennett's posting privileges because his comments were libelous. (On his site, Sanders credited ''the Doug Brouhaha" with boosting visitor traffic by almost 20,000 hits per day in December.)

Sanders said he would happily welcome Bennett back to the website if he would apologize. Bennett maintains he did nothing wrong.

Proving once again that not only is Dougie delusional, he tries to maintain the politician's mantra: never admit that you fucked up. Ever.

I'm sure that at this point, Dougie realizes that people on this board are seeing Doug's obstinate wackiness and are treating him with the disdain he deserves. I just feel bad for the person on this board who had his number published by Dougie, as he posts under his real name and does not deserve to be a victim of this lunatic's enmity.

Just get a job, Doug and stop trying to game the taxpayers into giving you a salary you clearly don't deserve, a job you are clearly not qualified for and on a personal level,you are obviously too nuts to hold public office, IMHO. And, of course, let's not forget his obvious habit of upvoting his strange comments.

Actually, according to their website, DB is a real estate agent at this otherwise reputable agency.

I'll bet Doug calls you incessantly to ask you why not and then if you tell him finally to fuck off, he'll accuse you of spying for another realtor!

Seriously though, that's how the man puts food on his kids table so I would never presume to inform his superiors of his antics here. I mean his kids probably have no idea about the amount of embarrassment Doug is going to put them through in the future....

DB posts his invitation to comment on his wacky football question, then posts the first comment, answering his own question with an off the wall wacky theory. Now that's wacky.
