BREAKING! ADRIAN McPHERSON CUT BY AUSTIN WRANGLERS
8 05 2007
McPHERSON “WAIVED” BY FOOTBALL-CESSPOOL AUSTIN WRANGLERS; EYEING OPEN QB SLOTS IN TAMPA BAY - BOTH AFL AND NFL, ‘CAUSE PRIMARY GRUDEN LOVES QBs AND TRENT GREEN IS TAKING HIS SWEET-ASS TIME
It figures. We were just about to slap the ‘Byron Leftwich 2.0′ tag on McPherson and he gets sent to the land of Shaun King. Only this time, you heard about it here first-ish. From our friends (we actually have no idea)(if they’re aware of us they probably hate us) at ArenaFanOnline:
“We felt like a change was needed at this point in the season,” said Wranglers General Manager Glyn Milburn. “This was a difficult decision, but we think this choice gives us the best chance to win and earn a spot in the post-season.”
Let us put this in perspective for everyone:
The Austin Wranglers : AFL :: The Oakland Raiders : NFL
The Austin Wranglers : an AFL playoff bid in 2007 :: Paris Hilton : free of gonorrhea
Ah well, Adrian. We wish you the best of luck. Say ‘hi’ to Shaun for us. Try not to get trampled by Trigger on the way out.
UPDATE: McPherson’s been re-signed!
I think there might be an opening with R’n'R Truck Accessories.
McPherson was a dud anyways. He was the same in college and will be the same for the rest of his life. He has the athleticism, but is a product of the system he was exposed to at Florida State. It’s a shame because he could have been one of the best backup quarterbacks in NFL history!
