Random News Shit: Misc. NFL News Edition

1) Rex Grossman Thinks Redskins Will Win NFC East
Forget blood testing for steroids, how about one for illegal drugs because Rexy was definitely on something potent when he made this statement.

In all seriousness, unlike most, I'm not even mad at him for saying it. I mean, what is he supposed to say, "It's clear we're the 4th best team in our division, so I'm just gonna hammer these game checks and maybe we'll have some talent next year"? No, he'd be getting killed by all the football analysts that are laughing at him right now. Of course Washington would be lucky to win 5 games this season, Rex knows that, but he obviously can't say it to reporters.

(Side note: Speaking of the NFC East, everybody seems to think Philadelphia winning is a foregone conclusion, but I'd caution them to remember the Cowboys haven't gone anywhere.)

2) Clay Matthews Says He Played 2nd Half Of 2010 With Broken Leg
Okay, I'm gonna have to go ahead and call bullshit on this story, this is almost more ridiculous than Rexy saying the Skins would win the East. I'm willing to believe he played hurt, but a broken leg? Nigga please.

3) Channing Crowder Retires At 27
He didn't want to not play for the Dolphins, so he retired? Damn, what would've happened if he got drafted by the Bills instead?

Regardless, this nigga must be out of his rabbit ass mind if he wants us to believe a budding radio career and wanting to spend time with his family is even 1% of the reason he's calling it quits. That shit had NOTHING to do with it. He's just butt hurt about being cut from the Fins and I expect him to be back eventually.

4) Ray Lewis May Retire If Ravens Win It All
Welp, I guess the Ray Lewis won't be retiring anytime soon.

5) Bill Parcells, Jerry Rice Joining ESPN
I understand Bill Parcells, but Jerry Rice? I can't remember ever caring about or being entertained by anything Jerry Rice ever said, but oh well, it's ESPN's money, not mine.

6) Undrafted Free Agent Jimmy Young Carries Roy Williams' Pads
Good job Roy, get the undrafted free agent rookie to carry your pads, not the first round stud who's going to take your job. Who knows, maybe he'd still be in Dallas had he not tried someone who is greater than him? Oh well, I'm just glad his ol' fuck ass is gone.
