Poor Alex -- that's his career ending right there.

Roid rage guy's picture should go up in every gym in Montreal, banning him from ANY gym open to the public for life. That could have been career ending for Charles.

The Rock simply has no fear of movie career ending roles. I think he takes them on just to prove how awesome he is.

...and yet his fame is probably the only reason anyone beyond his immediate family and friends know anything about these "career ending " mistakes you list.

I think it wouldn't be fair if we judged your life based on your worst five mistakes, why judge his life on his?

Hrmmm, hockey can be a brutal full contact sport with explosive mid-ice collisions and teeth rattling board checking. Any of those hits could be career ending, life altering, and even deadly. What is the concern about a few punches to the face?

The moment his career ended. Straight out of the script for "In The Loop".

Coming from the same woman that thought Canada sent troops to fight the Vietcong? Ann doesn't know what she's talking about.

I'd be willing to bet cash money that - baring some unforeseen career ending gaffe - Palin will not only seek the nomination, she may actually get it. With her combined charisma, ability to read lines, blissful ignorance of real world events and the ability to do as she's told, she could be a female Reagan. I would imagine the Neo-Cons see much potential in her.

Sift needs a "career ending" channel. This would be a good addition to it.

Whenever I see homophobes now, I can't help but think of haider, head of a right wing conservative Austrian political party. He has professed long about family values, and has legislated against gay rights for the length of his career.
Ends up his right hand man in the party was his boyfriend.

Funny. And potentially career ending.

Irrespective of the flouride debate- it's kind of condescending to be giving "assignments" to people with an opposing view.

I'm not giving the assignment to Qruel because I oppose his viewpoint on water fluoridation. I'm challenging Qruel to step up, because up until now having a "debate" with him has only resulted in him dropping a deluge of copy-pasted articles, and everything else getting lost in the fold. In the sifts that I have viewed, he has brought down the level of conversation and increased the noise-to-signal ratio significantly. I am challenging Qruel because I want him, for once, to break that habit and rise above. And I know for a fact that I am not alone in that desire.

Also, if these are selected extracts from SciAm to prove a point, I don't think it's plagiarism. It's not like he pasted the whole article.

It is plagiarism. I wasn't accusing him of plagiarising Scientific American, I was accusing him of plagiarising the article summary from this page. If you view the page, you will see that Qruel did just copy and paste everything over. It is, in fact, like he pasted the whole article.

In the years of my education, and in the lines of work I have been in, plagiarism is one of the most serious intellectual crimes that can ever be perpetrated. Plagiarists in top universities have been EXPELLED and in research have had their careers ENDED on their first offense for doing in essence what Qruel just did. I say this so that you will understand that I am not leveling this accusation lightly, nor am I doing it condescendingly. I am very, very much in earnest.

I had expected Qruel to post about the SciAm article, since it has been pretty actively discussed in the public health community since it was published, insofar as any non-peer-reviewed-publication article is, so I began writing a response when I saw he posted about it. I was surprised and angered when I googled a sentence from Qruel's post in order to look for a source for one of his statements, only to discover that he had not actually written those statements, and that I was basically taking a debate up against another person entirely, and that Qruel had yet again not put any thought into a post that I was about to spend much effort arguing against in order to discuss the intricate details hidden in the SciAm article and the studies that lie behind it.

Since you brought it to my attention, I will attempt to not be condescending, as you put it, and I will try to keep a civil tongue as long as I can, but I am not going to sit idly by and let this fly. My challenge, unless you so happen to decide it is against the rules of this site (and I do not believe it is), still stands.

Mark my words, Simon will NEVER play in the national hockey league again. This is his career ending moment.

Quite sure Arkansas, and Mississippi, both have their roster of trailer park, "Kings for a Day", who's careers' ended abruptly.
Don't tell me you don't like the cartoon, Bug, it's classic.
