Football Bloopers Thread
In the midst of a terrible season, we look for the positives in every loss. We study film, critique players, and are constantly awaiting (and praying for) our next victory. However, there comes a time where we need to return our demons to Pandora's Box and have a little fun.
While perusing a mock draft website (WalterFootball), I found what is quite possibly the funniest football typo ever:
There also could be a trade here. Mangina may decide to move down 20 slots in exchange for a third-string quarterback and two eighth-round picks.
I'm sure Eric "Mangina" will have "his" hands full when the Browns are on the clock.
Joe Theismann says football isn't for geniuses.
"Nobody in football should be called a genius. A genius is a guy like Norman Einstein."
What an outstanding observation, Joe!
Torrin Polk, WR, keyed in on how coach John Jenkins treats the team.
"He treats us like men. He lets us wear earrings."
So, am I too late for the tea party?
RB George Rogers, formerly of the New Orleans Saints, states his aspirations.
“I want to rush for 1,000 or 1,500 yards, whichever comes first.”
2+2=22, right?
This one is a double whammy from Houston Oilers coach Bill Peterson.
"You guys line up alphabetically by height."
And...
"Men, I want you just thinking of one word all season. One word and one word only: Super Bowl."
This man deserves extra credit.
Jerry Rice is ever so humble.
"I feel like I'm the best, but you're not going to get me to say that."
Could have fooled me!
Doug Plank offers some sound words of advice.
"Most football teams are temperamental. That's 90% temper and 10% mental."
-Face palm-
How could I forget Bo Jackson?
"Football is easy if you're crazy as hell."
Are you kidding me? Football is almost as tame as ballet!
George Raveling has a successful recruiting story.
"When I went to Catholic high school in Philadelphia, we just had one coach for football and basketball. He took all of us who turned out and had us run through a forest. The ones who ran into the trees were on the football team."
He layeth the wood.
We can relate to this, can't we?
"We can't run. We can't pass. We can't stop the run. We can't stop the pass. We can't kick. Other than that, we're just not a very good football team right now."
I empathize with you, Bruce Coslet.
Finally, Sue Lawley offers a grand comparison.
"American football makes rugby look like a Tupperware party."
Ah, I love me some Pampered Chef...
Laugh away and add more content, folks!

i like coach mckay in tampa
when asked how he felt about his teams execution
McKay, “I’m in favor of it.”
The only players I hurt with my words are the ones who have an inflated opinion of their ability. I can't worry about that.

Knowledge is confidence. And confidence lets you play fast.

"I'm a man! I'm 40!".....
….not really a blooper but funny non the less.
Leave the gun. Take the cannoli.
I'm not sure Mangina was a blooper.
The Walter Football guys seem to be pretty abusive.
good stuff
as Berra once said about baseball: 90% of the game is half mental

“Terry Bradshaw couldn’t spell cat, if you spotted him the ‘C’ & the ‘A’!”
