After some rumors that JaMarcus Russell was re-dedicated to his fitness and training this off-season, now reports claim that Russell reported to Raiders’ camp weighing 290 pounds. So not only are the Raiders stuck with the dumbest quarterback in the NFL, but now they have a quarterback built like a defensive lineman.
Last week, Tampa Bay Rays’ outfielder Carl Craward shouted at fellow Ray Pat Burrell in the clubhouse prior to a game against the Orioles. According to the Daily News Wire Services:
Crawford, who had two hits for Tampa Bay but was twice caught stealing by Wieters, repeatedly yelled across the clubhouse at the Rays’ designated hitter. Burrell, in his first year with Tampa Bay after 9 with the Phillies, did not respond.
A teammate then stepped in front of Crawford, trying to calm the situation. Crawford was ushered into a side room.
Carl Crawford is probably just pissed that Pat is getting paid $7 million this season to sit on his loser DH ass and get fat! Besides the fact that Burrell’s statistics have been steadily plummeting since his rebound 2005 season (.281, .258, .256, .250, .230 anyone?), this once most-eligible-bachelor-of-the-MLB has pulled an old fashioned Britney Spears. I mean, let’s not screw around kids, I don’t know whether to ask for his autograph or stuff an apple in this mouth and tie him to a roasting spit. Don’t get it? I’m calling him a fat pig.
