Brandon Lloyd Jumps a Smart Car, NFL and College Coaches Gone Mad, and More in a Crazy Week in Football

Brandon Lloyd Jumps a Smart Car, NFL and College Coaches Gone Mad, and More in a Crazy Week in Football


If only I was independently wealthy...I'd have camera crews following various teams and coaches around everywhere they went (24-7). Week in  and week out as I research the week in off-field drama I can't help but think what a fantastic reality show all the craziness would make (yea, I've said it before, but this was one crazy week).
There must have been something in the water with the number of coaches that were involved in one incident or another. We got guys going off about Twitter feeds, slapping assistants, abusing players, snapping at reporters, etc. There were so many coaches going nuts that the players pretty much went neglected. That is, all but New England Patriots wide receiver Brandon Lloyd who did something really dumb--he jumped over a smart car...

  1. Trav,
    He didn't "smack his asst coach"! He was moving him off the field! (Evidently the assistant's headset needed to come off...violently...for this to happen...)

  2. The definition of smack is pretty broad so I felt safe using it here. This story is getting pretty funny. Ole Tubbervile has denied hitting the asst, but has now apologized for doing it. Way to channel your inner pirate/Leach Tommy!
