Another player in the NFL is continuing to prove how spoiled today's athletes really are. And Denver Broncos wide receiver Brandon Marshall is no exception. Marshall who's had problems with the Broncos in the past is doing all he can to show the organization how much he wants out of Denver. In a practice held Thursday by the Broncos, Brandon Marshall was caught on tape punting the ball away and batting down balls passed to him. After being interviewed Thursday night on ESPN, Marshall said his behavior was out of frustration. But when BM wasn't seen punting balls away, he was seen sitting down while the rest of the team was running sprints.
I'm guessing this is his tactic to somehow get dealt to another team, however if I was a coach of another team and seen the same footage, Marshall would be the last person I'd want on my squad. Not only is Marshall being a pain in the ass, but he's disrespecting the team and organization. If this doesn't lead to the team trading him away, I don't know what will. With this unsportsmanlike behavior, Marshall joins a list of familiar names that have also been somewhat of a virus to their team, come practice time; T.O., Michael Crabtree, Jay Cutler, Chad OchoCinco and now Brandon Marshall.
In other Football news, Michael Vick made his long anticipated Eagles debut. In a preseason game today against Jacksonville, Vick went a perfect 4-for-4 in passing for a total of 19 yards. After the game, Vick was interviewed and said, "It felt great to finally be out there on the field and get my feet wet", as it was his first game since being released from prison just months ago. Vick compared his return to riding a bike, "You never forget how to do it." Vick also received a standing ovation from the Philly crowd in a half-empty stadium.
