Unfortunately, it seems every time you turn around an athlete, celeb or politician is behaving badly - and we think those dudes that go beyond the status of "dumba**" and enter "douchebag" level idiocy should be recognized for their acts.

Here's where you guys come in: every week we will present you with the list of finalists for the "Ron and Ian Douchebag of the Week" and you simply have to vote which one of these gents was the biggest douchebag of them all. 

Once the voting closes, we'll reveal who our faithful listeners have selected. As always, feel free to leave your comments on our Facebook page!

Ready to vote? Here's this week's nominees:

1. Chris Rainey - former Gator and now unemployed NFL running back.

Basically, this kid just doesn't learn. Back in 2010 he was arrested for aggravated stalking after sending his former girlfriend texts in which he threatened to kill her. This time? He argued with, chased, pulled out of a car and slapped his current (we sure hope she's an ex) girlfriend over a cell phone.

2. Joe Amendola - Jerry Sandusky's lawyer. 'Nuff said.

This guy just infuriates us. We get he has a job to do, but how anyone could even take this case is beyond us. Now, the lawyer that got a 16-year-old client pregnant (later married her) will seek a new trial for his current client, Jerry Sandusky, because the defense team was, according to a Philly.com article, "overwhelmed by the bulk of material produced by prosecuyor's three-year inverstigation and never had time to study it in the seven months between their client's arrest and the start of his June trial."  Isn't that called "evidence"?

 

3. Robert Weiner - Decorated Plant High Head Coach-turned-USF-Defensive Coordinator-Turned-Jerky to Some-Plant High-head coach again.

If what Chip Kelly did didn't bother you - we get that - but what Weiner (appropriate, no?) did was pretty crappy. It's one thing to flirt with a promotion - it's a completely different ball game when that promotion happens to be a college gig in the same city in which you are currently employed as a head high school coach and then not only do you accept it but turn around less than 24 hours later and call "mulligan".

4. Lance Armstrong - Liar, cheater, and probably the most disappointing athlete of the last decade.

If you aren't sure what latest escapade brings Armstrong back to the limelight, you might want to read THIS.  I mean, really dude? REALLY? Just admit it: you suck. You had the entire country thinking you were a class act who was constantly picked on just because you were the best in the world at riding a bike on streets in France. Turns out, you were the biggest fraud American athletics has probably ever seen. And now you're going on Oprah's network to schmooze the public back to your good graces? Nice.
 

5. Bryan Thomas - Jets linebacker who is a hot mess. Oh, and he "allegedly" beats his wife.

No one outside of Tebowland probably even heard of this jerk until three days ago when the news broke that he "allegedly" assaulted his wife with a kitchen chair, punched her in the stomach, and grabbed her by the neck. 

In addition to aggravated assault, the 6-4, 265-pound Thomas was also charged with possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of less than 50 grams of marijuana, and possession of 20 tablets of suspected hydrocodone. Complaints state that Thomas had a "Havannah hookah, a pack of ZigZag rolling papers, a box of Phillies Blunt Cigars, and six small glass vials, all allegedly used to smoke or store marijuana."

He was also charged with unlawful possession of a weapon - the kitchen chair.
