Kerry Collins Benched in Oakland

<< < (2/2)

Trauma-san:
Let me tell you a little bit about Kerry Collins.

Kerry Collins was drafted by the Panthers their inagural season.  I live in Charlotte so I was here that whole time and everything.  I also worked for a limo company at the time, so I worked indirectly with a lot of famous people in Charlotte, including the Panthers.  It wasn't like I was there or anything, I just was around all the drivers, and talked to people that were there on the phone, etc.  So when all this was going down, I was hearing about it.

Anyways, my stepbrother was in town around this time, too... and he met a girl at a bar.  Pretty hot chick, and I was driving them around one day because he didn't bring his car to town.  This girl (who I had gone to school with but never knew her) was Kerry Collin's girlfriend when he was drafted.  She said she can remember them calling the bank and things and checking his balance every few hours and how excited they were when the million dollar advance or whatever deposited in.  When he went to training camp, he came back a COMPLETE ASSHOLE totally different guy, and of course they broke up.

While kerry was a panther, he had a HUGE drinking problem.  He had a house in Piper Glen right down the street from Ric Flair's house, and right down the street from my manager's house.  This is a whole neighborhood of Mansions.  We would pick people up to go to the airport, and drive by Kerry's house on the way out of the neighborhood... it was NOT UNCOMMON to see Kerry PASSED OUT in his own Front Yard. 

This guy has always been a loser, and always will be a loser.

They're gonna cut Collins, he's set to make something like 13 million next year? Meanwhile, if they cut him they only have to pay him 1 mil. These last games are to test Tui, to see if he will be our guy. They have the option at the end of they year, if they want to renew his contract. I personally think Andrew Walters should be our QB.

who knows though? he's been sittin on the outside for years now. Why not give him a shot and see if he can do somethin. What we're doin now obviously isnt workin. Rich Gannon was a backup in KC before he got a shot, Tom Brady was a backup. No one expected those guys to be as good as they were when they were sittin on the bench.

I've seen him play alot, if he does end up doing good then he proved me wrong, if he doesnt at least we have Walters. Walters will do good.
