Rudy charged with securities fraud

[ptrigger]

SEC Charges Daniel "Rudy" Ruettiger and 12 Others in Scheme to Pump Stock in Sports Drink Company

involved in penny stock scams. I see he put that education to work.

Maybe a Mod could move this to the ND news forum, posted in the wrong spot

Oh the t-shirts that will be made...

 

[phgreek]

Well, I guess exageration is ok in Hollywood...not so much when you are promoting securities...well then it just depends on who you are...

You know...all Rudy had to do was get elected to the house or senate and he would have been bullet proof...

...now his only hope is to be asked to join a presidential cabinet, and have his financial and other transgressions absolved...

Good luck Rudy...

Oh the t-shirts that will be made...

"5 foot nothin', 100 and nothin', and your shares are worth nothin'"


"When Rudy speaks, the SEC listens"

 

[Cali_domer]

"He was unprepared for the SEC's speed".

Saw this else where it made me laugh.

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

"In a blind taste test, Rudy was still offsides."

"Dream Big! Commit Fraud!"

 

[tko]

not at all shocked by this.

 

[Whiskeyjack]

Would have been kind of Rudy to give the University a heads up.

"Dear Fr. Jenkins, I need money and am about to do something which will reflect poorly my alma mater. Could you put me on the payroll somewhere so this can be avoided? Love, Rudy."

 

[ShamrockOnHelmet]

not at all shocked by this.

nope. not. at. all.

"He was unprepared for the SEC's speed".

now that is really funny

 

[BabyIrish]

Interesting, he just spoke a month ago at a Fellowship Church down here in Corpus Christi. Bet the church is sick to their stomach seeing where their money went.

Rudy the sequel: Jail Break

 

[IrishLax]

No way he actually defrauded $11 million and then settled for $382k......... and settle without an admission of wrongdoing or guilt..... $382k is ~3% of the supposed "defrauded" amount.

The ironic part? He probably settled to avoid a media **** storm... but it still happened.

 

[RDU Irish]

Anyone taking stock tips from Rudy deserves to lose their money.

 

[DomeX2 eNVy]

Does that mean the Rudy autographed football I got for Christmas is worthless?

 

[PLACforever]

FSU grads aren't smart enough to commit securities fraud.

 

[Anchorman]

FSU grads aren't smart enough to commit securities fraud.

Or win a Rhodes Scholarship.

 

[tadman95]

Does that mean the Rudy autographed football I got for Christmas is worthless?

Uhhhh......yeah

 

[johnnykillz]

Or win a Rhodes Scholarship.

Of course a Seaman can identify the only Rhodes Scholar athlete at FSU, due to the recent ESPN coverage of Rolle.

But of note, I'm not certain ND has produced one.

Anyone?

Here's a wikipedia link: List of Rhodes Scholars - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

[johnnykillz]

How's this Rudy issue going to taint his image?

My feeling is it will substantially.

It's still a great movie.

 

[johnnykillz]

I did find this:

ND Rhodes Scholars: Where are they now? // News // Notre Dame Magazine // University of Notre Dame

Sweet.

And this: ND's 14th Rhodes Scholar // News // Notre Dame Magazine // University of Notre Dame

Stick that up your dingy and smoke it, Anchorman.

 

[HereComeTheIrish]

Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy...

Bwahahahahaha.

 

[johnnykillz]

Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy...

Bwahahahahaha.

Lol.

You ****.

 

[PJWhitfield]

Nice to hear the SEC stopped downloading porn on the job long enough to pursue a case. Unfortunately the biggest wrong every commited on investors was courtesy of the SEC itself. Dropping the short uptick rule...

 

[Irish4Life09]

I can just see "Fortune" in the background shaking his head.
"I knew that kid was bad when I caught him sneakin into my stadium, then stealing my damn cot! I've got a damn sciatica!"

Edit: I am curious. For all the people that said they're not surprised by all this...why? As far as I've ever heard Rudy seemed like a genuine good guy,although I've heard he's a little high on himself.

 

[Irish To The Core]

On a related note I have several autographed bottles of Rudy Nutrition for sale on e-bay. Ex Enron executives prefer it to Gatoraid 2-1.

I did find this:

Sweet.

Stick that up your dingy and smoke it, Anchorman.

I love that application question: "Name a Shakespearean play that you would recommend to both George Bush and Saddam Hussein.”

 

[NDMontana]

Frank: As long as my brother talks this crazy stock fraud s**t, he deserves anything that comes his way.

Frank: That semester at junior college sure didn't make you any smarter. (Didn't even need to modify this quote)

Pete: Well, you know what my dad always said: Having illegal stock schemes is what makes life tolerable.


Rudy: Who cares how much effort I put in, as long I can fool a few people and make a couple of bucks?

 

[Rudy89]

this sucks now my nickname back in the day was for a douchebag.
