Relatives in Sports

[justinevans]

Does anyone have any relatives that have been in sports?

My great-grandfather pitched for the Philadelphia A's

I also was taught by Ron Villone's cousin.

[LeftWideOpen]

my cousin, tim fortugno, pitched for the california angels back in the early 90's. I think he played for the White Sox at one point, too.

(he was a 3rd cousin so we arent exactly close)

[Broken Parachute]

Not that I know of. My only cool brag is that I am like 4th cousins with Adam Sandler, if that's possible. He's my 2nd cousin's sister-in-law's first cousin. So damnit, don't tell me I'm not related to anyone famous. :dry:

you are someone famous, jack black

[NetNerdsRevenge]

I know of a guy who played for the Celtics and my grandfather played the equivalent of minor league baseball.

[justinevans]

oh yeah i forgot Tony Meola is my mom's 2nd cousin

[Broken Parachute]

you are someone famous, jack black
This is true.

[ActorInThisPlay]

I don't think I am related to anyone in sports. Jered Weaver went to my high school and was like a grade above me. I use to see him walking around all the time.

[PaulsRightNut]

ehhh my brother played in the maccabe games haha

[smokedsanity]

My great-grandfather lettered in Football, Baseball, and Track at Auburn. He also played for some semi-pro baseball team for a short while.

[Vincewithouthee]

My grandpa could've played in the NFL but he had an injury sometime in college and he couldn't play football anymore. I don't really know the whole story.

[skankinbri]

Not really realitives, but I have some good friends that play in the pro-leauges, such as David Carr.

[followtheformat]

my great-grandfather played semi-pro football, that's it as far as I know

[bigmike]

My brother's name is Kenny Rogers. that's about as far as it goes.

However, he does know Reid Simpson who's played in the NHL and Reid, when he wasn't playing for an NHL team at the time played on my brothers Men's league hockey team and basically dominated them. If you don't know who Reid Simpson is, I direct you to this video of when he was playing for the St. Louis Blues. He left my brother's Men's league after the Blues offered him a contract.

[1moreandimfree]

[merv the perv]

Jered Weaver is so good. His control is unbelievable.

[merv the perv]

I'm dating the all-time single season hits leader in Northwestern softball history. She's also like 24th all-time for batting average in a season in NCAA history. My best friend went to High School with Matt Leinart, but we're like three years younger. When we were seniors, my friend was an office aid and one day he was sitting in the office and Matt sat down next to him because I guess he used the gym or maybe he was just visiting the coaches.

I used to hang out with the sister of mike komisarek, defensman for the montreal canadiens.

joey harrigton sucks

[fcknazisympathy]

joey harrigton sucks

Wow, just fuck you. Joey > all.

[deCresceNDO]

dude he sucks
how do u do that bad with the talent of those kind of wide recievers in detriot
what draws you to joey harrington

[bigmike]

dude he sucks
how do u do that bad with the talent of those kind of wide recievers in detriot
what draws you to joey harrington
yeah. that great talent. What ones? The Coke head WR Charles Rogers? The Over Eating WR, Mike Williams who routinely skips meetings, doesn't run drills out in practice, was actually SENT HOME from mini camp. The team fucking tried to GET HIM A HOUSE CLOSER TO ALLEN PARK, MICHIGAN IN THE HOPES HE'D ACTUALLY SHOW UP.

Or how about Roy Williams that takes way too many games to recover from injuries and openly led the charge of the team quitting on Joey?

Or how about the fact that the team's owned by a ridiculously greedy owner with no intentions of having a winning team at all. The sole reason for the move from the Silverdome was because William Clay Ford, Jr. (owner) didn't get any revenue from Concessions/merch sales/etc. and then the movement for the new stadium started.

Not to mention Joey played under 3 different head coaches and had to learn at least 2 completely different playbooks/offensive schemes.

Or, how about a GM who has the worst record of any GM in the history of the NFL? Yet despite this lack of winning, or lack of finding talent, or lack of finding good coaches, he has the guts to call Johnnie Morten a "******" in front of people in the hallways of Kansas City's stadium when Morten was with the chiefs? or when he openly questioned Joey's toughness and guts and said he had no "intestinal fortitude" on a talk radio show?

And yet, he keeps his job through all of that and through 3 different coaches. How? It's a testimate to the Owner's unwillingness to be serious about putting a winning product on the field.

How about that all pro O-Line we have. Yeah, man, they just provide quite the pocket for their QB's. Not to mention the fact that all 5 guys on the O-line clearly only blocked for Mike McMahon (when he was here) or for Jeff Garcia.

How about that Jeff Garcia debacle? Yeah, Joey really almost got a fair shake in detroit with this shitty talent that is full of nothing but empty potential, then he's pushed out the door because Garcia is going to be the savior. That worked out well. Then after you've alienated your QB you can't put him back in there so we played Garcia at 60% when normally he'd be taking 4+ weeks off to heal his leg, he took 1-2 off.

Think it's all passed? Nope.
Roy Williams was asked about how well him and kitna have been so far this year and he brings up Joey in his answer to take subtle shots at him when he's not even in the fucking question.

This franchise is fucking ridiculous and doesn't deserve fans. I will love for nothing more then william clay ford to fucking choke and die and for someone to rip this franchise from his greedy fucking clutches. They're a disgrace to the NFL, to the state of michigan, and everything we love about sports. I will never root for this team again until those 'big 3' WR's are gone and Matt Millen is fired. Even then, i will never think about attending a game until the Ford Family relinqueshes they're grip on this franchise because they don't deserve my money at all.

Fuck this team. Fuck this franchise.

Next time, don't speak on something of which you have completely ZERO knowledge of.
kthx.

[deCresceNDO]

ok if joey harrington is sooo godly why is he not #1 QB of the Dolphins EVEN with Daunte Culpepper 100%. Don't give me that crap that Joey Harrington was signed as a backup or anything, cuz if he was really a god than he would be the #1 QB

PLEASE STOP TALKING. STAPLE YOUR LIPS SHUT OR RIP OUT YOUR VOCAL CORDS.

JUST
SHUT
THE
FUCK
UP

I'm seriously losing brain cells over your posts.

1.) it's not serious. It's a joke. It's sarcastic. It's tongue in cheek.

Here, look up what those phrases mean:
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/sarcastic <-- Sarcastic
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/tongue-in-cheek <-- Tongue In Cheek

2.) You think he's going to leave a debacle in Detroit where he unfairly got alot of the blame, much like you want to lay on him despite not knowing a single god damn thing about the situation and thusly, talking out of your asshole and looking retarded, and walk into a new team and be a starter automatically? He's going to have to work for everything from this day forward because he's got a bad rep for being shitty when, in reality, he was on a shitty, shitty team. No QB could have succeeded in Detroit.

So shut it down, son.
You have no idea what you're talking about.

Also look up the word tool.

[rcrook]

apparently this tool doesnt comprehend the satanic symbol known as matt millen

[deCresceNDO]

u dont know what ur talking about
daunte culpepper has been in Miami as long as Joey harrington
and ur saying Peyton Manning wouldnt do well in Detriot?

[fcknazisympathy]

u dont know what ur talking about

If you knew jack shit about football, you'd know Detroit has no line, shitty recievers, and their best option, Kevin Jones, doesn't see the ball alot. So please, shut the fuck up.

[rcrook]

detroits receivers were good in college but they are worthless pieces of shit in the pros

[bigmike]

u dont know what ur talking about
daunte culpepper has been in Miami as long as Joey harrington
and ur saying Peyton Manning wouldnt do well in Detriot?
Wow. Seriously, I wish your dad would've pushed your mom down the stairs when she was pregnant for you.

Try to comprehend this:
Daunte had success before his injury. He was on a good team for the majority of his career, with an organization that was moderately concerned with winning.

Joey's spent his career on a shitty team, with shitty talent, and an uncommitted owner.

Thus, Daunte's proven himself.
Joey hasn't had the opportunity.

And, no, Peyton wouldn't succeed here. Our offensive line offers ZERO PROTECTION.

What does a QB need to be successful, passing wise? Time and space. Joey, Jeff Garcia, Stony Case, Ty Detmer, Mike McMahon, Dan Orlovsky, Charlie Batch, and any other QB's we have had in the last 5 years haven't had space or time in Detroit.


Again, shut it down, son.
You have no idea what you're talking about.

I see where you're coming from. And initially I was just laughing it off.

But so far I've yet to see a single knowledgable thing on here from you AT ALL. It's seriously just alot of "well I'll bet you Vernon Wells signs with a Texas team because I said so" or whatever ridiculousness it is.

Plus, you're clearly inept about the Lions and Joey Harrington in general and yet attempted to speak about it multiple times. Stick to what you know, and you should be fine.

Edit: And squeeze some punctuation and actual sentences in there sometime, as well.

Basically, a kid from AP randomly IMed me (the kid is Slurps. That's his ap username) and asked if i wanted to post news for his new webzine and i said sure. and yeah, basically i post like 2 news things a day and probably will just tell the kid i'm done posting news there because i just never get around to doing it, haha.

Well, its hard to contend with Morrison's porn-stache as well as his tears of doom.

Well, its hard to contend with Morrison's porn-stache as well as his tears of doom.

one of the biggest thrills of last year was watching him play in person. he scored 7 points in the first half then blew up in the second half for 42 points...it was insanity

[livethesounds]

yeah. that great talent. What ones? The Coke head WR Charles Rogers? The Over Eating WR, Mike Williams who routinely skips meetings, doesn't run drills out in practice, was actually SENT HOME from mini camp. The team fucking tried to GET HIM A HOUSE CLOSER TO ALLEN PARK, MICHIGAN IN THE HOPES HE'D ACTUALLY SHOW UP.

Or how about Roy Williams that takes way too many games to recover from injuries and openly led the charge of the team quitting on Joey?

Or how about the fact that the team's owned by a ridiculously greedy owner with no intentions of having a winning team at all. The sole reason for the move from the Silverdome was because William Clay Ford, Jr. (owner) didn't get any revenue from Concessions/merch sales/etc. and then the movement for the new stadium started.

Not to mention Joey played under 3 different head coaches and had to learn at least 2 completely different playbooks/offensive schemes.

Or, how about a GM who has the worst record of any GM in the history of the NFL? Yet despite this lack of winning, or lack of finding talent, or lack of finding good coaches, he has the guts to call Johnnie Morten a "******" in front of people in the hallways of Kansas City's stadium when Morten was with the chiefs? or when he openly questioned Joey's toughness and guts and said he had no "intestinal fortitude" on a talk radio show?

And yet, he keeps his job through all of that and through 3 different coaches. How? It's a testimate to the Owner's unwillingness to be serious about putting a winning product on the field.

How about that all pro O-Line we have. Yeah, man, they just provide quite the pocket for their QB's. Not to mention the fact that all 5 guys on the O-line clearly only blocked for Mike McMahon (when he was here) or for Jeff Garcia.

How about that Jeff Garcia debacle? Yeah, Joey really almost got a fair shake in detroit with this shitty talent that is full of nothing but empty potential, then he's pushed out the door because Garcia is going to be the savior. That worked out well. Then after you've alienated your QB you can't put him back in there so we played Garcia at 60% when normally he'd be taking 4+ weeks off to heal his leg, he took 1-2 off.

Think it's all passed? Nope.
Roy Williams was asked about how well him and kitna have been so far this year and he brings up Joey in his answer to take subtle shots at him when he's not even in the fucking question.

This franchise is fucking ridiculous and doesn't deserve fans. I will love for nothing more then william clay ford to fucking choke and die and for someone to rip this franchise from his greedy fucking clutches. They're a disgrace to the NFL, to the state of michigan, and everything we love about sports. I will never root for this team again until those 'big 3' WR's are gone and Matt Millen is fired. Even then, i will never think about attending a game until the Ford Family relinqueshes they're grip on this franchise because they don't deserve my money at all.

Fuck this team. Fuck this franchise.

Next time, don't speak on something of which you have completely ZERO knowledge of.
kthx.

you really hate your lions

[chroma23]

My uncle got a full ride to Pitt in their glory days. He was the back up to Marino for two years, then he started. His first starting game against Tennessee he threw two touchdowns in the first half. The first play of the second half he dislocated his throwing shoulder, ultimately ending his career.

I do. I really, really do. We ran off the greatest RB of our generation, and possibly the best ever to play the game because we couldn't field a team around him.

I will never root for this franchise again until Roy Williams, Mike Williams, Charles Rogers, Matt Millen are all gone. And I'll never attend a game as long as the Ford Family owns the Lions. I'm done with this franchise.

Yea, i was lucky enought to see #20 in person. It was quite amazing. Honestly did he do that crazy crap during every game? from what i remember he did.

basically he'd be like: lose 2 yards, lose 5 yards, gain 86 yards, lose 3, lose 4, 76 yard TD run. It was nuts. He'd always get to 100+ yards though, no matter how many times he got caught in the backfield due to our shitty line.

i'm pretty sure shawn kemp is my father

I got nothin

hahahahahahahahahaha

[ThriftWhore]

when my father was in high school, he was a great soccer player. his team won the all-long island championship i think two years in a row, and he was highly recruited for many schools and in his last game as a senior he tore his mcl and acl.

needless to say, he ended up the university of vietnam(haha, that was a metaphor for the vietnam war incase you didn't catch that).
