Just an interesting story. As some may know I work in the Jail in Downtown Houston. Today I get into work and find out the day shift finger printer didn't properly finger print some one. I normally hate that because they do it frequently.

Anyways, I read the paper work and the name seemed extremely familiar but nothing stuck in my head. Then I was reading and next to "Occupation" it said "football coach". That already sparked my interest because I enjoy football, so I asked him where he coached and he said "well actually I play football". Then I stopped and again was trying to figure out where I knew the name from but I stopped pushing questions on him because he just seemed like he wanted to get the process done.

I finished and sat him in a location for him to go back up to the housing floors. I jumped on a computer googled his name and yup he is an NFL player. He was named an All-Rookie in his rookie year and made the Pro-Bowl one year also.

I would list his name but I did a quick google search and nothing popped up about him being arrested so for fear it would get out I won't mention a name.

I briefly asked about his career and he said yeah he is who I thought he was but he "retired" a year ago. But I think he just couldn't find a team to keep him, I asked if he wanted to get back to playing again but he said he had no interest in doing so.

His career was about 10 years and he made some good money

If I wasn't hunt n' pecking my phone, I would google-machine the fuc out of this and find out in about 10 minutes. Alas... I am four IPA's and a number in, and incapable if such an activity.

Reps to the person that figures it out.

Hooray for Friday!

No I have his mug shot and his NFL bio picture. He is definately the same guy. Almost the exact same expression and face in his mugshot as his NFL Bio picture.

Now I'm super curious. What's it going to take for you to spill the beans?

I like this game but we need a hint. Draft year, position, pro bowl year, etc...Something to point us in the right direction.

I really don't know. haha. I mean I had to share with some one. I told my wife and she was like "cool, anyways what do you want for dinner". So I figured I would tell others that like sports.

But since it is not reported anywhere that I have found. Not sure if I want to release his name. I mean when I asked him about his career and the teams he played for. He acknowledge everything I said was extremely polite but at the same time it seemed like he wanted me to keep it "hush". Like he didn't want the recognition.

I mean if he would have said anything he could have been made a VIP and gone this morning when he got arrested instead he is in general population with slime and scum.


And on a side note, although he was named to the All-Rookie team his rookie year,to the Pro-Bowl one year, and was a team captain on his team. I really don't know if he is a "house hold name" per say. I just happened to remember the name and google it before I was 100% sure.

Is it Burt Reynolds or Adam Sandler?

Are the guards gonna play a game against the inmates?

I'd love to see a 3rd rendition of this move.
