Don't Leave Tatum Bell Around Your Luggage

This is a candidate for either the funniest story or saddest story of the year first reported by our friends at Profootballtalk.com. When Rudi Johnson was at the Lions facility to finalize his deal he left some luggage outside of Matt Millen's office. When he came out of the office later the luggage was mysteriously missing.

Millen proved he was a much better detective than he is a GM by immediately pulling the surveillance cameras to see who was the culprit which was none other than:

Tatum Bell

Yes the Tatum Bell who was getting cut upon Rudi Johnson's arrival, but the story doesn't end there. Bell after he steals the luggage drops them off at one of his "Bust It Babies" (for my non hip-hop readers type in Bust it Baby in Google and you will find out what it means) house for "safe keeping".

After Bell explained to the Lions that he thought the bags belong to someone he knew (by the way Bell also thinks O.J. is looking for the real killer) the young lady in question told the Lions that she hadn't seen Bell in months and he showed up at her door asking her to watch the bags for awhile.

Suffice it to say it will be hard for Bell to find work after this. It is one thing to be a below average running back but it is a whole another thing to be a below average running back who steals his competitors underwear and leaves them with a random jump off.
