Those crazy Scots. Lawrence Tynes, kicker for the Chiefs and the NFL’s first Scottish-born player, has been charged with breaking a bouncer’s nose in a bar fight.
So Lawrence Tynes 1) kicks a ball for a living 2) is Scottish and 3) violent. That, to me, earns him the title of Scottish Football Hooligan. Congratulations, Tynes. If it’s not Scottish, it’s crap.
By the way, congratulations to the bouncer who got beaten up by a kicker… and a bad one at that. That’ll do wonders for his image. As soon as he gets back on the job, someone should wear a Gramatica jersey into the club and just watch him flip out and cry. I know it’s not as bad as it sounds, I mean Tynes is 6’1″, 200 pounds… small by NFL standards, but not small by everyday Joe standards. But getting your ass whooped by a kicker… well, that’s never good.

If his Scottish brogue has a tinge of Australian to it….goddamnit if this guy isn’t Braveheart 2005!
