    Did you guys hear the Jamarcus Russelll story???

    Raiders coaches suspected Russell was not studying the game-plan DVDs they gave him each week, so they sent him home with a blank DVD. The next day, they asked Russell what he thought of the game plan. He said it looked good to him.

    Sorry if this is old news, but I just heard it on Friday for the first time.

    Tom Cable gave Russell a DVD, it was the game plan on how to attack the Chiefs, Cable told Russell to watch it…. The next day Cable asked Russell what he thought about the game plan and Russell told him it was great and he was on board… The DVD was blank… Tom Cable gave Russell a blank DVD to see if Russell was even doing his homework.
    The next week Russell was benched.

    While entertaining this is stupid. If the Raiders suspected that, why wouldn't Raiders brass call him out on it and make sure he watched the film? You do this when you invest multi millions in a player.

    That's what happens when you give a lazy fukk all that guaranteed money and has no passion for the game. He probably figured I don't have to work out, get fat, don't study game tapes, play like shit, and let my team down and I still get all that guaranteed money. He also said he fell asleep during team meetings because he had some disorder.

    I guess but I imagine there aren't a lot of Raiders fans that feel the same way

    If you watched him play you wouldn't think he even played madden on the ps3. Really looked like he got out of bed and became raiders qb based on drawing the longest straw that day.

    I don't think belicheat or Omar epps tomlin would have handled it that way.

    This could be my favorite NFL story of all time. 99% of the time I can't stand grown men who wear sports jerseys. Seems so pathetic, but I'm on ebay right now looking for a jamarcus russell raiders jersey.

    They had to eventually draw up plays for him with only one read. Literally. If they do this, throw it here.
