National Slapdick League

So the NFL owners better get it together and take the deal the players want or the players will all be in jail and they won't be able to have games even if they want too.  I wonder if now that the teams can't contact the players, they also can't use their power to get players off scott free when they rape girls in Georgia...hmmm.

Well the latest two stories are Aqib Talib and Dez Bryant.  The first thing I can say about these two is that spell check doesn't like their names, the second is that they are both complete knuckle heads (Charles Barkley voice).  The Cowboys and the Bucs knew what they were getting into when they drafted these guys, as there were rumors that both were complete idiots coming out of college.  Dez looks like he is in some financial trouble as he owes around $1,000,000 to various jewelers for diamond encrusted necklaces that he bought on credit and decided not to pay for.

At least he timed this well with the lockout keeping him from collecting any pay checks for a while.  Luckily North Park Mall decided they would look out for his best interests and ban him from the mall so he couldn't make any financial follies there.  Who knows what is going to happen with this guy in the next few months without the oversight of the team.  It should be comical though.  Maybe there is still time for him to get a cameo in The Hangover 2.

So then we have Aqib Talib.  This guy is from Dallas and graduated from Richardson Berkner.  I am a little surprised that I don't remember hearing about him in high school since he is local and apparently was really good.  Maybe he was never academically eligible.  Well after Berkner he went on to become an All-American at Kansas where he earned a degree in being a slapdick.  His latest achievement is getting into a dispute with his sisters boyfriend.  Talib and his mother were arrested for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon (mother of the year?).  Apparently Talib fired shots and tried to pistol whip this guy n Garland a few weeks ago.  I am not quite sure but I feel like you have to be some how impaired to be close enough to pistol whip someone and not only fail at that but then miss them with a few shots.  What do you think?

Naa he looks like he is completely alert.  Well needless to say it is pretty likely he is going to jail.  But that just sets us up for his triumphant return in 5 years to become one of the best players in the league right?  History seems to repeat itself.
