Roy Willams Living in the Fantasy World

10
Vote

by user LastRow


“You play to win the game”…Words made famous by Herm Edwards. Unfortunately, Herm hasn’t consistently done this over the past couple seasons. Although, winning games is so overrated, at least in Detroit Lions wide receiver Roy Williams (not to be confused with Roy Williams the Cry Baby who resides in Chapel Hill). Then again, he plays for the Detroit Lions…Do they even know how to win football games? Perhaps this is why Big Bad Roy would rather strike a pose instead of “win the game.” This coming a week after he said the Lions offense could put 40 points on the Chicago Bears defense…Does a whopping 7 points mean anything to you? In the Lions first two games, they’ve been outscored 42-10…Only 30 points to go. At this rate the big 40 points will come in week eight.

So, with nothing else to celebrate, why not celebrate a reception with the Lions already trailing by two scores? The obvious response would be, “Hey buddy, look at the scoreboard, you’re loosing 10-0.” To that Williams responded, “I celebrate first downs all the time. I'm not gonna stop that. I'm an exciting player. If I do something exciting, I'm gonna show my actions." Guess what Roy - your actions certainly are making you look like a complete JERKOFF. My man, you’re a wide-out…Aren’t you supposed to make first down catches all the time, especially if you’re the only half-decent receiver on the team? Why, T.O. even isn’t this moronic.

"What does that mean? ... That means nothing to me. The score means nothing." You know what Roy, you’re 100 percent right…The score and the scoreboard are completely overrated. Well, that is if you’re playing fantasy football…Odds are your fantasy football team is better than your real one. I’m still trying to figure out if your Lions can beat the best team in Michigan, located in Ann Arbor? I’m trying to put this in terms the average sports fan might understand. Is the concept the same as going to the movies on a Friday night, but never really going into the theater? Only the dorks went in to view a flick, so if one pays attention to the scoreboard he’s considered a dork I guess? Only the cool people stand outside and raise cain of a monumental first down reception. I know you didn’t have a lot of opportunities to do this in Friday Nights, so I guess you’re trying to catch up by smacking your lips together. Funny, your professional football career best resembles your Hollywood career…Non-existent!

First it was the 40-point prediction, next came a memorable first down reaction...now Roy is back at it making bold predictions again? "You can all run with this: We will win the [next] game," he told reporters. "I don't care who it's against. We will win the game as long as we do what we're supposed to do. That's my comment for the whole week." Have you been hanging out with Fredex again? Okay, what’s with all the “Next Game We Will Win Predictions Coming Out of Detroit?” Sorry, the Lions aren’t the Detroit Pistons, and you’re not on the same level as Rasheed Wallace. Come to think of it, he might be a better receiver than you, Roy. The sad thing isn’t the fact that Big Game Roy made another ludicrous prediction, it’s the fact that he didn’t even know who the Lions play in week three. Well here’s some help…This coming Sunday you guys play against the Green Bay Packers. It’s a home game at 1:00. Hopefully you can post some better numbers than 6 for 71? Don’t be late…You might miss your one shining moment, Roy, against the moldy old Cheeseheads. Everybody has their own fantasies, it's quite apparent that yours is to be a good football player. I’m just glad I don’t have your loser ass on any of my three fantasy teams, even though you’re a fantasy stud…Or is that dud? Can’t wait to hear your words of wisdom next week! Here’s a thought…SHUT YOUR PIE HOLE!

Agreed. Roy Williams never should have opened his mouth. For a while I thought the Bears were gonna put up 40.

Yeah, but what's MORE stupid? Him saying it or the reporters who listened to him? He's not Kreskin or Rasheed "I guarantee EVERY game is a victory" Wallace, he's not Jerry Rice, he's not even Anne Rice!

He's a freeking Detroit Lion... one of Matt "Mensa called me twice - to tell me I'd never get in" Millen's boys, nuff said!

I'm tired of people telling other people to shut up! Let them talk and STOP listening and WE'LL all feel better... (hey, ask my "fans", they'll tell you)

Reading these poorly-structured, pathetically punctuated rants is exhausting. Glad to get some insights into what your high school english teachers must have gone through, though.

Since when has a rant composed entirely of random, unintelligable comments, sprinkled with references grasping at wit, been creative?

Since when has 'going Anon' become a "good" way to hide your identity?

Creative means 'to CREATE' - LastRow, by definition is creative. He doesn't spew the same boring crappy 'accepted format' garbage most everyone else seems to imitate.

Maybe it's just "unintelligable" to you...

Keep up the good work Norm! You get me to read about stuff I would definitely otherwise ignore. That's the sign of a CREATIVE writer...

You read format, I read content. Didn't your Mommy ever tell you? It's what's inside that matters more, not how it's packaged.

First of all, what is this fixation people have with ripping anon comments? Secondly, it was a mistake - I'm using a computer at school and I forgot to log on. Thirdly, I read content AND format. His content is bad, and it's even harder to read when the format is as bad as it is.

It is my personal mission to rip Anon's; it's fun - Armchair UP, whimps... (Hey, I anon as much as anyone due to my dumbass computer that doesn't 'remember me' and I comment "^^^that was me" more than anyone)

What is your fixation with complaining about everyone's grammar and correcting every little minscule error? It's nice that you go through the trouble and we appreciate the effort, but EASE UP on the deconstructive criticism.

You're human too. I've seen you make errors and you even corrected things in my articles INCORRECTLY! Sometimes I even write things incorrectly on poipice... (It's tough to sound like Curly and write like Admiral Grammar)

You know what you're getting with LastRow. Something different. If you think his content sucks, don't read his article! That's what a non-unintelligable person would do...

Accept the dude's efforts for what they are. We are a community of individuals, some of us don't even remember High School, let alone want to go through it again...

Are you certain it was me? I don't remember editing your articles. I don't do that much editing. Looking at my own page will show that. If I've incorrectly changed your articles, I apologize, but it can't have been recently at all.

At least I don't feel like Jim Rome did as ASwaff didn't throw me across the studio. Wonder what would happen if I called him ASSwaff though...And kept on doing it? Would a 30 minute commerical insue?

I never know which way I'm gonna shake my head when I open up a LastRow article. That's what I do know. That's what I expect. That's what I enjoy...

I will always stick up for anyone who gets their ORIGINAL efforts bombarded with "You spelt stuf rong" or "Yer Inglish ain't no good".

Yes, I'm a stickler when it comes to the stats and math... because you can't typo a number (876-3905 for instance) and git teh saime piont arcoss, but grammar and spelling is insignificant compared to the message being conveyed... It's called communication, people. Anyone with a minimally functioning primate brain can fill in the gaps in the President's Inglish (after all, American English barely resembles English).

Obviously it's a peeve of mine. If I've EVER said something to anyone about a misspelled word, rest assured it's only because I thoroughly enjoy teasing over innocuous semantics, but in reality I could give not a damn.

Grammar and spelling aren't insignificant to the message being conveyed if nobody cares what you have to say because they read an entire peice thinking you're an idiot. Maybe it's unfair, that's up for debate. But when you butcher something that badly, it does hurt your credibility. And I think it justifiably hurts your credibility. If you picked up a newspaper, and they couldn't even spell names correctly (not with a typo, but obviously didn't even know how to spell them), how likely are you to consider them a source worth going to?
