Crowder, 28, who was released at the start of training camp last year and wound up sitting out the season, said his lack of respect for General Manager Jeff Ireland means he’s willing to talk to every team but Miami about returning for the 2012 season.
“I wouldn’t go on a team with Jeff Ireland. I’m not very confident in him,” said Crowder, who has been hosting his Miami-based radio show from Indy all week. “He doesn’t know what he’s doing in my opinion. He’s real disrespectful; he doesn’t know how to deal with people and the whole Dez Bryant (situation) kind of showed to the world what he’s about, but guys in the building know what he’s really about.”
Ireland came under a torrent of criticism after reportedly asking Bryant probing questions about his mother regarding prostitution and drug use in interviews leading up to the 2010 draft. He subsequently apologized.

So, for all of the Jeff Ireland haters, you can at least confirm that Ireland prevented Crowder from joining the team. Remember, Ireland asked Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant if his mom was a prostitute, after the then draft prospect said his dad had been a pimp, and his mom worked for his dad. The story leaked, and the media and fans, both of the Dolphins and around the league, blasted Ireland for his improper question. Ireland later apologized for it.

It’s not clear why he got only a year in the pokey for this; either he totally rolled over on some accomplices, had a spectacular lawyer, or some combination. Keep those things in mind if you try to do this at home. We’re checking with prosecutors and Baugh’s attorney today and will update this post if we hear from them.
If you need to supplement your fraud income, you might want to consider writing a wildly overpriced ebook too: While we can’t say for sure it’s the same guy, there’s a “Marlon Baugh” in the Fort Lauderdale area pimping himself online as a “nationally known mortgage expert” and selling a book of “insider load modification secrets” for 50 bucks. He even has the chutzpah to warn against scam artists on his blog:

… The state of Florida has been cited third in the nation for highest number of human trafficking victims, which has lead to a statewide taskforce on the issue. Rundle also spoke of a Human Trafficking task force that she has now established in Dade County. Why would Miami need such a task force? Miami has been identified as a “gateway” for the trafficking trade. Trafficking victims are acquired from all parts of the world (Mexico, Guatemala, Bolivia, Argentina, Honduras, Haiti, Thailand, Hungary, etc) and are brought to Miami and forced into slavery. South Florida has been cited as having a significant number of “pimps” that are targeting vulnerable and scared minors. Although these “pimps” have traditionally been men, South Florida is starting to see adult females now pimping minor females. Another shift is that more young boys are becoming victims of this forced prostitution.

Former Miami Hurricane and current Washington Redskin Rocky McIntosh was a guest on D.C. area sports radio show this morning, and on the day after national signing day the hosts had recruiting on their mind. They started throwing questions at McIntosh about what part strip clubs and hot girls may have played in his decision to attend the U. Well, McIntosh happened to have his phone on speaker, and his wife overheard. Things didn’t go so well.
…
Apparently Rocky’s wife Natalie is a U alum as well, and the two met on Rocky’s first day of classes. The pair got married just three days after McIntosh was drafted in the second round of the 2006 NFL Draft. Sounds like Mrs. McIntosh didn’t want any strip club stories marring her storybook romance.
