Phelps Gets Motivated; Glenn Gets All Messed Up

Posted by jason on Feb. 05, 2009, 9:30pm

• Michael Phelps - from marijuana smoker to motivational speaker. Maybe he can motivate himself not to skip the 2012 Olympics.

• And Mike should have a talk with Terry Glenn, the ex-Dallas Cowboy who was taken in for wandering high & naked through the halls of a hotel.

• As if sports agents weren’t sleazy enough, now they’re getting caught collecting child porn.

• LeBron James doubles his pleasure & triples his fun by going off in a 52-point performance at MSG Wednesday night.

Terry Glenn Likes To Get Naked And Smoke Weed

Posted by Tom Fornelli on Feb. 05, 2009, 12:00pm

Wide receiver Terry Glenn hasn’t played in the NFL since 2006 when he was with the Dallas Cowboys before having to miss the 2007 season with a knee injury. He was then cut by the Cowboys before the 2008 season started because of that knee, and sat around hoping somebody would sign him to a deal. They didn’t, which gave Terry a lot of free time.

Now you know that old saying, “Idle hands are the devil’s playground?” That’s a stupid saying - shut up, Grandma. Still, at times it does ring true. For instance, since Terry Glenn has no football season to prepare for he really doesn’t have anything to do. So that gives him a lot of time to just get really drunk at a hotel, smoke some weed, and then roam the halls naked. Because, you know, why not? Too bad other visitors of the hotel have to ruin things and call the cops.

Are Cowboys’ Woes Due To Poor Conditioning?

Posted by Barry Petchesky on Dec. 28, 2008, 12:00pm

Did you know the Dallas Cowboys haven’t won a playoff game since 1996? That’s pretty spectacular for haters of America’s Team, which includes, oh, most of America. But according to one ESPN analyst, don’t blame the players, or coaches, or even Jerry Jones. Blame the trainer.

Marcellus Wiley believes he’s identified the culprit for Dallas’ late-season collapses: strength and conditioning coach Joe Juraszek, who maybe-not-so-coincidentally joined the club in 1997. Wiley, a former defensive end who played one season for the Cowboys, thinks the team is never in shape to handle the grind of a 16-game season. And Cowboy fans, eager to find a scapegoat, quickly rounded up the posse. (Wiley’s words, and the ensuing fan lynch mob, after the jump.)

Panthers Could Look To Trade Punch-Happy Smith

Posted by ryan on Aug. 05, 2008, 12:00pm

Hmm. Apparently, NFL teams frown upon intrasquad beatdowns. Last week, the Carolina Panthers’ Steve Smith went all “Michael Westbrook“ on teammate Ken Lucas (reprising the role of Stephen Davis), the team promptly suspended the Pro Bowl wide receiver for two games, everybody kissed and made up, and we’re all ready to move forward.

Except, maybe Carolina’s front office. According to Matt Mosley of THE BLOG FORMERLY KNOWN AS HASHMARKS, Smith’s surly disposition and penchant for Debo-ing teammates (language NSFW) could be his ticket out of town.
