Yep they finally fulfilled their goals of fizzling out in the league as laughingstocks and returning to run a sad scout team operation for a college team where they use their considerable talents for nothing more than giving their former team a look. That's sad, whether you want to realize it or not.


You realize 2 of the 3 scout team guys were Blake Sims and John Parker Wilson, right?

Alabama squeezes every snap it can out of its talent, sends them to the pros to fail, then uses them as walkons. Anyone being honest about it would see how depressing that is.


Gawd dang, you cracked the case. I'll let Julio, Amari, Collins, Ha-Ha, Mosley and the rest know to watch out that their careers are about to tank.

Curious as to whether the school is allowed to pay these players who come to help out temporarily or not. If you can, holy opening the floodgates.

He should probably see if he can get Mark Barron, Vinnie Sunseri, and Dee Milliner lined up for the next scout team sad-a-thon.

Mark Barron


The guy starting at LB for the Rams who has 53 tackles, 2 INTs and 1 sack this season?

Yea, he'd probably be busy.

Barron just signed a long-term deal this past off-season.

Sunseri was a three star recruit who beat the odds to even sniff the NFL.

Well, Arie is the first OL off the bench for the Redskins and started 3 weeks ago. Cyrus is the first OL off the bench for the Bills and has started 2 games this season.

You aren't very good at this.

First off the bench! Awesome! Better than many of their predecessors.

10-0 appears to have finished off what was begun with 21-0.

It makes so much sense now that Bama hires all those failed coaches as staff. The process is the fricking Matrix. It's amazing to see how successful it is, but a bummer to see the misfit toys have nothing else going for them.

Arie was a 4th round pick, so, pretty standard.
