Why the fuck isn't Lamonica out at QB. Who the fuck is Campbell?


"I'm JaMarcus Russell. …I'm on the verge of, and the progress of getting myself back into the NFL"



Finally an off-season story we can all care about.

quote:

The first pick in the 2007 draft continues to be serious about a 2013 comeback.

Monte Poole of the Bay Area News Group explains the efforts JaMarcus Russell is undertaking to get back to the NFL. He’s working out at the TEST West Football Academy in San Diego, and former NFL quarterback Jeff Garcia is helping with footwork, passing, and conditioning.

Folks from Russell’s hometown are firmly in his corner. “If he goes anywhere — the Jets, Miami, wherever — we’ll be with him,” Mobile, Alabama barber Reginald Payton told Poole. “Just get on a team. We don’t care which team.”

Another local barber says Russell is coming back for pride. “He said they took his manhood,” Tre Hern explained. “It’s not about money. He’ll play for nothing.”

We’re not sure how anyone other than Russell took Russell’s manhood. The deeper problem is that Russell took the money — a lot of it — and never really did anything. And when other teams started sniffing around Russell following the Raiders’ decision to sever ties, Russell didn’t exactly demonstrate a high level of motivation. At least one NFL team visited with him several years ago, asked him to go outside and show off his arm, and he declined.

Now, at age 27, Russell is trying to regain whatever it is that he lost during a brief NFL career. In a league that is desperate for quarterbacks, it’s hard to think he won’t at least get a chance to show what he can now do.


Now JaMarcus is being trained by former Raiders teammate Jeff Garcia. Yes, the same Jeff Garcia that said


quote:

"When you put him on the field in a one-on-one workout session he'll make every throw for you, but when it comes down to making things happen in the heat of the battle and rallying the troops around you and making a case for the team, that's where maybe things aren't where they need to be."

This is the first video.

He is 310.5 lbs. He needs to be around 265 lbs.

His is 20% body fat. He needs to be around 10% ideally

He must lose 34.5 lbs of fat

Can he do it?




This thread is here to chronicle the return of JaMarcus Russell.

The adventure begins

If JaMarcus Russell signs with your favorite team, you must sign along the dotted line and be prepared to do the following:



Atlanta Falcons:

If the Falcons sign JaMarcus, I will change my username to "JaMarcus Is Fat And Sexy"

Baltimore Ravens:
Marketing New Brain posted:

quote:

If the Ravens sign him, I'm going to make Skittles infused vodka, and I'll do a number of shots equal to his number of starts. If he doesn't start any game, I'll do his jersey #.

Buffalo Bills:
Lance of Llanwyln posted:

quote:

If the Buffalo Bills sign JaMarcus Russell, I will purchase an appropriate avatar and extol his countless virtues as a quarterback on the Buffalo Bills message board as seriously as it is humanly possible to extol the "virtues" of JaMarcus Russell in his capacity to perform as a NFL quarterback.
Blackula69 posted:

quote:

I'll make one for the Bills. If JaMarcus practices with the Bills for more than a week, I'll buy a jersey and eat as much White Castle as I can, in his honor. I've eaten there all of once, but I think it'll go some way toward drowning the sorrows of Buffalo's fans this season. I'm also in for an avatar.
Carolina Panthers:

If the Panthers sign JaMarcus, I will buy a jersey, wear it each Gameday, and buy a Jamarcus avatar for myself for the entire football season.

Chicago Bears:

Cleveland Browns:

If the Browns sign him I will deep fry a bag of skittles for every game he plays in, including pre- and postseason (it could happen dammit).

I remember seeing some Chinese knockoff jerseys on eBay that went up to like 7xl so if there is a Russell jersey that big i'll buy that as well.

Dallas Cowboys:
Crunkjuice posted:

quote:

If Dallas signs him i'll eat a modified McGangbang using a double down as the meat and 2 double cheeseburgers as patties with photos of the event. I will also make skittles infused vodka, or maybe to save time use smirnoff ice and drink it with the sandwich.

Fenrir posted:

quote:

I will do this if the Packers sign him. I'd also change my name to Aaron Rodgers Is Dead, Long Live Jamarcus... but I think that's way too long. I'll come up with something. As with the Tebow , I'll also wear said jersey to campus and take a pic in the courtyard.

Indianapolis Colts:
Chimeric posted:

If JaMarcus is signed by the Colts, I will hand-make a crappy replica of his jersey out of appropriately-colored bed sheets or some other large material. Then, during the first home game of the season, I will don this mammoth jersey and tuck it in so that I can fill it to the top with bags of Skittles. I will stand outside Lucas Oil Stadium and hand these bags of Skittles out to passersby until they're all gone. If necessary I'll eat them myself.

nnnAdam posted:
In addendum to the first addendum to my original toxx, if the Dolphins sign Jamarcus as a QB I will beer-bong/skittle-bong/funnel as many packs of skittles as his jersey number is.

gently caress it, I feel safe enough to say if the Patriots sign him I will make Wanda's Macaroni Salad, with skittles instead of vegetables, and eat as much as I can before inevitably vomiting.

only except filling it with simply cheese like they do I'll add a few bags of skittles and maybe some sausage in there too.


Come to think of it I might just buy a 5XL Jamarcus jersey either way. The $40 will be well worth it to see the reaction on the face of the 1% of people who understand the humor in it
Boo This Man posted:

Screw my previous bet. I am changing my bet. If JaMarcus signs with the Giants, I will buy a Russell jersey and get a burgerking crown. I will go to golden coral, have a picture taken of myself. I will wear the crown and the jersey in the picture with a big plate of food. I'll include a smug look on the face that is equal to the JaMarcus flexing picture. The picture will be my avatar. I'll change my name to, "JaMarcus Russell Buffett Jesus".

If the Raiders re-sign jamarcus I will eat a bag of skittles. Which doesn't sound like a lot, but I'm on Atkins and haven't had sugar in like half a year so this will but NUTS.

Philadelphia Eagles:
Quiet Feet posted:

Screw it. Not enough Eagles fans here, and I'm expendable.

If JaMarcus is signed by the Eagles I will make a double-down sandwich. Which is of course, one double-down as the meat and two as "bread". Furthermore, I will dip each bite in a chocolate shake. Since we're randomly throwing in skittles, the shake will be topped with them.

Pittsburgh Steelers:

If the Steelers sign him I'll get a Jamarcus "2" tattoo. Because if that happens I will seriously question the Rooneys' collective sanity.
kalensc posted:

If Russell signs with the Steelers I will buy big bags of regular, tropical, berry, double-layered, and sour Skittles. I will pour all 5 bags into a big salad bowl, and mix in french vanilla ice cream, peanuts, and chunks of fudge to create some sort of homemade Skittles Blizzard.

The night of the first pre-season game where Russell gets some snaps, I will eat the entire concoction before the game is over. For each Jamarcus incompletion, sack, fumble, or interception, I will scarf down multiple mouthfuls.

Also if he gets signed by the Seahawks I'll make myself a sandwich out of two Voodoo doughnut bacon maple bars, use a Double Down as the middle and cover it all in a light drizzle of melted Mo's Chocolate and Bacon bar.

Or maybe do something similar with this foie gras doughnut thing a restaurant in town makes.

In April, Lucas reportedly fired Russell, still more evidence that he was an irredeemable slug. Except both men say it never happened. "I felt like I was overtraining, running my body into the ground, so I left Houston," Russell says. "But fired? Me and Coach Lucas, we're cool. We still talk. I texted him just the other day." (Says Lucas, "I don't know where that [report] came from. JaMarcus is a good kid, I'm telling you, who just needs to find his motivation. But we still talk. Have him tell you about his sleep apnea. A lot [of his issues] come from that. And no one knows it.")

Matt Moore is head and shoulders above Stanton, both in production thus far (which is sad) and in current value to NFL teams. Just because he wasn't drafted doesn't mean he wasn't in the draft class. Who would have thought the best QB in that entire draft would have been a UDFA out of Oregon State.

Drew Stanton is a big motha though. I had no idea he was 6'4 235
