Reminds me of Demetrius Underwood for the Vikings. The guy that secured his signing bonus and then walked off the team. Classic, at least we got a few years out of Tony Mandarich. Way to go Dennis Green, we all miss you.

Bruce Clark was an All-American at Penn State and was drafted #4 overall by the Green Bay Packers in 1980, selected by then Green Bay GM, one Bart Starr

Clark then refused to play for the Packers and decided to join the Canadian Football League (CFL) instead.

Imagine that, disliking the Packers so much, you'd rather go to Canada.....and since he never played for the Packers, they wasted a top-five pick and got nothing back in return.

It's pretty insane how much history vikesrule knows about the Packers, yet, claiming to be a "fan" of the Vikings.

If Derek Sherrod quit (which he didn't, it was a joke) no one can bitch about it unless he fully recovered. His injury may have been so severe that he had to quit.

Still, I thought it was funny and figured something was up when it was Josh Sitton breaking the 'news', lol.

But yeah, as Zero said, I should have known something was up when it was Sitton breaking the the news via Twitter. He got me hook, line and sinker, it's last time I believe anything I read on Twitter, going to get all my news from reliable sources such as Wikipedia in the future. 😛

But never, ever cast aspersions upon the man whose given name is Harry Peter.

Yeah, Sitton is quite the character on Twitter...

Lang, Sitton and Bulaga are always talking smack to each other on there about their golf game and how fat they all are....pretty comical.

This doesn't surprise me. I am sure Wilde shit his pants at first, too.

Twitter is what it is: A source of "entertainment." It amazes me how many news stories are written from Twitter. You don't think that famous people and such realize how the media will run with whatever they say? I'm sure many use that to some kind of advantage at times. None of that is Twitter's fault or makes it bad, simply the media and people's reaction to it. I personally enjoy anything that makes the media look stupid (because they are).
