Holy Terrible Takes: The injury to Il Grappa’s shoulder had the NFL media freaking the off out. Quite a sight. It’s so fun to have everyone in the national media scrambling to expose what idiots they are. Anyway, a truncated look at the concern trolling from them.
1. Peyton Manning should be on Belichick’s speed dial. Why not?! Boomer asks… um…
To be fair to Boomer Esiason, he hasn’t had an intelligent thing to say for some time and now he’s knee-deep in the derp-tastic sports radio world. I mean, let’s move on and pray for his family. Someone mentioned Doug Flutie and Vinny Testaverde-type players to Bill Belichick’s face. To his face. And folks wonder why Belichick is dismissive of the NFL media. Amazing.
The Media List:
Tim Tebow: (without comment).
TJ Yates: Sure. This is only reasonable mention. (Brought up by the only sane man covering the NFL, Greg Bedard, obviously)(reports that he was worked out Tuesday exemplify this.)
Ryan Lindley and Matt Flynn: Both were evaluated and cut.
Matt Cassell: Belichick’s already proven he can win with this bag of balls and super nice guy.
Johnnie Manziel: We know what the Patriots scouts think about him. That’s before he hit his girlfriend, etc.
Honorable mentions: Tarvaris Jackson, Jimmy Clausen (only room for one Jimmy), Josh Freeman, Charlie Whitehurst, Michael Vick, Good god, someone suggested A Hasselback?
The fact that the Patriots released their Monday workout invites and didn’t include a single QB was BB trolling at peak. Glory in the highest. (Yates was Tues. left w/o contract).
