They cut him?

[elltrain22]

I can see it now. 10 years from now, he's gonna be on Outside the Lines or E60. He's gonna be 400lbs, in prison, talking about what could've been or should've been. Sad story. One of my favorite movies of all time "The Bronx Tale" has the best quote in relation to Russell; the worst thing in the world is wasted talent." This is certainly the case w/ Russell.

Woulda coulda

WTG JaCarcus LOSER!!!!

[YardRat]

Unfortunate for him.

Interesting factoid at the end of the article...


Since the start of the common draft in 1967, only one other No. 1 pick was released this quickly in his NFL career. Indianapolis cut 1992 top pick Steve Emtman (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=7271) after three seasons, but that was more because of injuries than production.

They cut him?

Even his drugs are fattening. Codeine Syrup?

That must be awesome on pancakes!

Even his drugs are fattening. Codeine Syrup?

Its cough syrup essentially. I had last year when I got Bronchitis really bad.

Its basically Robitussen with Codeine disolved in it. Its used in a powerful drug/liquor known as Purple Drank down south predominantly.


Purple drank is a slang term for a recreational drug popular in the hip hop community in the southern United States. Its main ingredient is prescription-strength cough syrup containing codeine and promethazine.[1] Cough syrup is typically mixed with ingredients such as 7Up soft drink and pieces of Jolly Rancher candy. The purplish hue of purple drank comes from dyes in the cough syrup.

I wonder if those were used in Flaming Moes?

a couple weeks ago, he was a bust who still had close to $50MM to play around with.

now he's in jail. My guess is that he pays a fine and it all goes away. but still. i think that sound we hear is the door officially closing on Russell.

[ddaryl]

be a man Jamarcuss get a real habit....

cough syrup is so high school.

i realize this thread is to mock J Russell endlessly, but on a side note, is it not worth mentioning that Dimetab allergey medicine is possibly the greatest tasting medicine out there? The fact someone decided to mix this with alcohol doesn't surprise me. what i don't understand is why dimetab doesn't sell 40's of their stuff. cure your allergies, have a grape soda, and be drunk? that's a good life if you ask me.

Pepto doesn't taste too bad either if you ask me.

[trapezeus]

i have to disagree with you on this one db. i hate the taste of chalky pepto.

although, maybe you could mix it in with a smoothie.

The Bills should consider bringing in Russell and Vick before TC starts.

[feldspar]

The Bills should consider bringing in Russell and Vick before TC starts.

Maybe we can sign Roethlisberger through week six as well.

[OpIv37]

The Bills should consider bringing in Russell and Vick before TC starts.

But only because Ryan Leaf is unavailable, on account of being on probation.

[ServoBillieves]

Maybe we can sign Roethlisberger through week six as well.

I heard LenDale White is available.

[TheGhostofJimKelly]

I think the worst thing anyone could have done with this kid was give him 50 million bucks.
