No, it wasn’t Kellen Winslow, but……..
Larry Brown Sports found this little tidbit from a GQ profile on Jay Glazer. This is probably the best story you will hear from Super Bowl Week.
Here is the story in Glazer’s own words.
“They have, like, a computer room where the guys can go study film. And somebody caught him. Pants right down, going to town. And I guess he caught wind that they were gonna make fun of him, and [snaps his fingers] gone. He quit football. Never went back. Man up, man! It’s not like nobody else does it!”
We know it wasn’t a high profile player, because it would have been too obvious. Obviously, the player was too sensitive to play in NFL, but it does remind me of a story from my days at Ohio State.
As a freshman I stayed in a dorm called the “Towers”. There were two of Towers and a lot of the freshman football players stayed in them. The way they were set up was there was one big living area and then 4 individual rooms. Each individual room had a study area then a bedroom with two beds (pretty sweet set up, much bother than the South or North dorms). So, you had 8 people in each of these rooms.
We routinely played Madden or NBA Live in the main living area and rarely locked any of our doors. When we were going to get a session started or even if we just wanted to go out to eat, we would just bust into someone’s bedroom and be like let’s go.
Well one day (names will be excluded to protect the guilty because the guy had a cup of coffee in the NFL) myself and few girls were going to the record store (yes we actually bought CDs/Tapes back then). This one particular football player fancied himself a DJ, so we always asked him if he wanted to roll. The player was a Defensive Lineman about 6’7″ 300 lbs, really big guy. So, me and the girls roll up in the dorm and just bust through his door.
And he’s buck naked going to town……………
There were three girls with me and I can only describe what happened next like this.
But, there was no pool……….
I always knocked on everyone’s door after that day. The girls being girls told everyone and the guys’ reputation with the ladies was ruined.
If he is reading this, I just want to say, my bad.
