And another day passes without a collective bargaining agreement between the NFL owners and the players. So with the lockout continuing, the players, like Cleveland Browns wide receiver Carlton Mitchell above, continue to look for things to do to fill the time they would normally be lifting giant truck tires or going over defensive and offensive schemes in “voluntary” minicamps.
We’ve seen Chad Ochocinco ride (very briefly) a bull. The Manning brothers have apparently grown lavish moustaches and taken on the rolls of good cop and bad cop. Prank calls were made to league commissioner Roger Goodell, who got booed by fans at the annual draft in April.
Now comedian Will Ferrell’s website Funny or Die has enlisted a few of the unemployed football stars to help him create a sequel to the baseball movie Field of Dreams. Ray Lewis, Tony Gonzalez and DeSean Jackson are a few of the players acting with Twilight werewolf/jorts wearer Taylor Lautner in Field of Dreams 2.
