Rookie symposium my ass
![]()
I woke up this morning and found these images (right) over on what is quickly becoming one of my favorite Web destinations — Nyjer Please. Do yourself a favor and blow those bad boys up, then we’ll talk.
Now that you’ve taken a gander, holy shit, right? What are these numnuts thinking? This was discovered on MySpace, so just imagine how many people have access to it (like that matters now).
First off, I wonder if all of these players have officially been contacted about this (I hope not). As we all know, T.O. is suing a club for something very similar.
Second, many of the NFL players listed were rookies. Didn’t those guys just complete the rookie symposium? I’m pretty sure the main point of that event was explicitly clear — stay the fuck away from anywhere where they “make it rain.” So what do they do in response? A handful of them run out and attach their names to a “Special NFL Celebrity Super Extravanganza” (superlatives, anyone?), a shindig which has the phrase “Let It Rain Power Hour” on its flier. Those slick sons of bitches. They swapped “make” out for “let.” That’s going to totally fool Roger Goodell and his boys.
There were also a lot of second-year players on that list — like Casey Printers, Mario Williams and Michael Huff — which leads me to ask the following question: Have young guys in the NFL learned anything from The Namesake and his crew? I understand partying and what not, trust me, but why don’t they just send Goodell an invitation himself. Incognito isn’t exactly the adjective that comes to mind here.
Anyway, I’m thinking that either Chris Houston or Tanard Jackson does something stupid, if anyone at all. Houston looks like a Pacman in training, and Tanard had his fair share of trouble back at the ‘Cuse, and both are CBs, just like you know who.
If you’re tempted to go, it takes place in Austin on July 14. If you can’t make it, no worries — the NBA Superstars are “in the house” July 28!
