Gamecockitis

The state or condition of being a complete and utter failure while remaining inexplicably arrogant. Often associated with low intelligence, inbreeding, and closet homosexuality. Symptoms include: loathsome envy of one's rival, an incessant need to brag about the accomplishments of others, extreme insecurity, and a general sense of success despite consistent and unrelenting failure.

Since entering the NFL draft, Johnny Manziel has suffered from a severe case of gamecockitis.
