The NFL Draft combine coverage on the NFL network always sucks me in. It is pretty creepy that I enjoy watching 20 something males running, jumping, and lifting weights in tights.
This gawking homophobic behavior is probably prohibited in some states by a backwards arcane law like the Texas one outlawing the purchase of vibrators.
Nonetheless, I am compelled to keep tunning in and I spent considerable time over the weekend glued to the NFL Channel.
My favorite part is listening to Arizona Weight training coach and combine spotter, John Tott, pump up the players during the bench press lifts.
Check Coach Tott out in rare form and here is his pep talk.
If I could train with Coach Tott, I would be posting ripped shirtless self portraits on my MySpace account in no time.
RB Darren McFadden(Dmac) blazed to a bad ass 40 time and should have solidified his spot as the number one RB in the draft. NFL Network draft Analyst Mike Mayock disagrees and ranks Illinois Raysheed Mendnahall over DMac. Mayock believes DMac fumbles too much, has character issues and is not strong enough in the lower body.
I could not disagree more with his assessment. If I remember correctly, pundits questioned Adrian Peterson for being injury prone, lack of receiving skills and his upright running style. Apete slid to 7 and then he ripped off one of the best rookie RB seasons in NFL history.
I see the same nitpicks on DMac. He dominated the best conference in America (SEC) and gashed the BCS champs LSU. DMac played in a gimmick offense, where he was lined up as a QB in the shotgun. He is hands down the best RB and might even be the top overall player.
Although DMac needs to use some of his future wealth to buy some rubbers.
The Blog Construda attended the combine and the NFL networks' Adam Schefter was pulling a Chris Berman on his camera crew.
Another favorite highlight this weekend was watching Schefter catch a football and run down the field for an apparent make believe touchdown. His stated dismay was the end zone being void of goal posts so he was unable to spike the ball over them.
I was unable to locate this hilarious video. Damn NFL Youtube Ban.
