    Russell finally benched for good.

    http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news;_yl...v=ap&type=lgns

    I have never seen a bigger disaster than Russell, I actually dont know how this guy can make so many bad decisions, so consistently. He's like pouring bad milk on your cereal every morning.
    I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
    "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
    You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
    It was all     true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
    He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can     mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

    Russell was a horrible pick when he got drafted. His bust potential was huge.

    I hope he gets cut this offseason. I will make three threads a day saying, "Bring him in!"
