Vernon Davis Cried in the Pregame Huddle
NFL November 30th. 2010, 5:30pm
Frequently impassioned 49ers tight end, Vernon Davis unleashed a pregame speech just before the national anthem last night that spilled over into tears as the team gathered into its pregame huddle.
Wow. Brent Jones never cried. Hell, Niners all-timer Eric Johnson didn’t even cry a single victory tear upon marrying Jessica Simpson. I expected to see Davis chewing random limbs and screaming “click clack” on the sideline long before I’d ever see him cry. Consider him humanized:
“It just comes from the heart,” Davis said. “You have to feel it. You have to feel it deep down inside.”
After that second quote, expect Vernon to be plowing Kim Kardashian no later than Friday.

Steel Magnolias does indeed have a sad ending Hernia.
November 30th, 2010 at 5:34 PM
Wouldn’t be so sure about that…Vernon has my vote for “Football Player Most Likely to Come Out of the Closet”
November 30th, 2010 at 5:38 PM
Dhani Jones. That dude dresses way too well
November 30th, 2010 at 5:39 PM
The ending isn’t sad… it’s more the middle that’s sad than the end.

Dhani Jones. That dude dresses way too well
After John Amaechi came out, I recall him writing that he used to watch his teammates get dressed in the locker room after a game and compare their suits, and shirts and the jewelry they had on and he used to say “And I’m the gay one?”

Makes Vernon look even worse. What an emotional trainwreck.
November 30th, 2010 at 5:42 PM
Can’t hate on Vernon, he likes curling.
November 30th, 2010 at 5:43 PM
Just wait until you hear Vernon say “Yeeeeeesssss”…
/Oh…and he is wearing pink shoes/shirt
November 30th, 2010 at 5:45 PM
His hairline is out of control

I thought Magnolia had the sad ending.
Yes, I was the one who saw that movie.

He needs some Nolvadex to lower that Estro.

I missed the Shannon post, but all this talk about Leach being a possibility? No.
I know his poor interview w/ UM has been mentioned, but the real problem was that he showed up to that interview drunk.
November 30th, 2010 at 5:53 PM
ok……
Yup.
November 30th, 2010 at 5:53 PM
I’ve seen Steel Magnolias a few times, been years though.
November 30th, 2010 at 5:54 PM
I missed this earlier, but if jeter goes to the Red Sox, first I’ll eat my hat, then I’ll proclaim Jeter is dead to me.
November 30th, 2010 at 5:56 PM
Vernon rocks out to Bonnie Tyler.

Magnolias starts out happy, then it gets sad when Julia Roberts dies and they have the funeral, then it’s happy again because the little boy is with his grandparents and Darryl Hannah is pregnant and Dolly Parton’s husband opens a second hair salon for her. I love Steel Magnolias.

Someone didn’t get the memo on which way the Kardashian Boyfriend Color Spectrum is heading.
November 30th, 2010 at 5:59 PM
Well, no need to see Steel Magnolias anymore.

It happens in the first four minutes in the movie. Fucking Chris O’Donnell headlines the thing and he’s dead three seconds later.
