Local UFC Fighter In Trouble Again For Obama Comments
2012-01-09
Jacob Volkmann admits heÂ’s trying to make a name for himself as a fighter. The problem is itÂ’s getting him in trouble at his other job.

Following a fight last Friday, the 31-year old White Bear Lake man was being interviewed by Joe Rogan. Volkmann told Rogan that President Obama should call him to schedule a “glass-ectomy.” Rogan then asked what a “glass-ectomy” is.

“A glass-ectomy is when you cut your bellybutton out and put a piece of glass in there so when you have your head up your butt you can see where you’re going.” Volkmann said.

The White Bear Lake School District apparently was not amused. Volkmann, whoÂ’s an assistant wrestling coach for White Bear Lake, said the district put him on paid administrative leave.

“I thought it was kind of a funny joke, it was meant for humor,” Volkmann said. “And the school took it the wrong way.”
I'm guessing that the Secret Service will show up with a six-pack of beer and a slap on the back.

#1  I don't understand this. Jacob stands sweaty, and victorious. Adrenaline, sarotonin and teststoterone pumping through his veins. Handed a microphone he decides to speak about Obama.

Maybe he should have thanked his mom.

The joke was sort of funny - I asked my wife for a second opinion, but did not directly relate to his performance. Glad to see that he doesn't hold a teaching position.
