Yup he's an idiot.
Should also remove brakes so there's no stopping him.

Unless he's a complete idiot of a driver or stubborn beyond belief, he's going to re-install it. My rear view mirror broke off one time and I didn't realize how much you rely on it until it was gone.
FWIW, this sounds like something Gilbert Arenas would've done 10 years ago.

Adrian Wojnarowski: Not if people make calls on him. Not if an organization is doing their homework and knows all the things he brings with him.

lol one of the comments on the ESPN boards:
Butler also spoke of once driving with his eyes closed, as a reminder that true motivation comes from within.

I hate when the OP gives the best response anyone could have in a thread. It's like why even make the post if you're going to start and shut down the thread?

And doesn't ever let anyone drive him around anywhere so they can't control him.
Please tell me this is a joke.

Re: Jimmy Butler removes rearview mirror in his car as a symbol to never look back
Let's just continue to remove parts of the car.
Remove the wheel so he can't be steered away from his goals.
Remove the cruise control because his intensity demands full steam ahead at all times.
Remove the headlights because he doesn't need some artificial light to see the championship ahead of him.

Re: Jimmy Butler removes rearview mirror in his car as a symbol to never look back
Some other things he could fix on his car.
-tear out his seat belts so there's nothing to hold him back.
-smash his headlights so no one sees him coming.
-install a microwave in his glove compartment so he can make Hot Pockets while on road trips
-remove his turn signals so nobody knows his next move
RIP Jimmy Butler

Re: Jimmy Butler removes rearview mirror in his car as a symbol to never look back
So dumb.
I liked Butler a lot more when he was just Jimmy Butler: that guy who plays hard and tries on defense.
Now he's JIMMY BUTLER: The Ultimate Warrior. The hardest man on Earth. He wants it more than your team. He needs it more than your team. He'll do anything it takes to win. The fire of his competitive spirit burns brighter than souls of one hundred Kobe Bryants.

Next time Jimmy and the Bulls play the Clippers, he's going to wear oven gloves, because he can't handle the Truth.

Re: Jimmy Butler removes rearview mirror in his car as a symbol to never look back
About a hundred RealGMers have read this thread and tried to think of a car analogy that's better than 'should also remove brakes so there's no stopping him.' Several have been posted here. All have failed.
Nice work, OP.
