Survival Guides: What to do if your Favorite Player gets Traded to a Rival Team

10
Vote

by user Blocking Back

The loss of Wes Welker to the Patriots is still hurting rather badly so heres my 'Survival Guide' for anyone going through similar circumstances:-

1. Gnash teeth, hammer keyboard, impersonate chick from ‘The Excorcist.’

2. Repeat.

3. Breathe deeply, relax and remember that this is the NFL and that this stuff happens all the time.

4. Hammer head against wall, varying both aggression and angle of attack.

5. Get out that overpriced jersey from last season and admire it. Think of all the good things that that player did for your team. Remind yourself that he deserves to get paid for his efforts…

6. Throw jersey to floor and stamp several times. Ensure both player name and team logo are sufficiently targeted.

7. Check out the latest transfers to see that, not only has Joey Harrington finally been cut, but that you have also signed one of the finest damned players in the league (or atleast one of the craziest).

8. Drink yourself into oblivion anyway, because you just spent a crapload of money on a player you didn’t need.

Disclaimer: This system is 100% unchecked and unverified. If you decide to follow it then you may die in some horrible fashion or other. By doing so you also accept that I am not responsible for this and agree to buy me several alcoholic beverages whilst I supervise your sorry ass.

I suggest writing nasty letters to the GM.

What about #9? Check weekly injury report to verify that said player suffers season-ending injury.

There's always the Toronto Sport Fan option, which is to begin hating the guy (See Vince Carter, Roger Clemens, Owen Nolan, Tracy McGrady, etc). I've done that for several players. Though, if you have a jersey for the guy, just get it on eBay ASAP. I wouldn't hang onto it.

WHat are your feelings on Trent Green possibly going to Miami??? I live in Kansas City but I am from Florida. I am pleased with this possible deal.

lol, nice comments guys.

Personally I think signing Trent Green would be a bad move for the Phish; just another band aid for a wound in need of stiching, as it were. I think Miami focus hard on rebuilding other areas of the team and give Culpepper a chance to come back.

Hopelessly optimistic? Yup, you got it! :)

Thanks for your support as always guys and please take a minute to stop by the sports blog - http://shott...ordpress.com Thanks!

Dolphins are mammals. Not a fish... (like a Devil Ray).
