Turbosrrgood Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 (edited) You have to take into account this guy did not play at a big "football" school, and he was a UDFA. He's a long shot to make the team, let alone be successful in the NFL. Having said that, listening to this guy, how can you not root for him? The guy sounds honest, humble, and hard working, and has an ivy league brain as well (double major at Brown). As far as I know he hasn't fathered 5+ kids from different women, doesn't have a criminal record, and doesn't have a need to mess with drugs and fire arms. This is the type of guy you'd love to see come in and surprise everyone Edited May 1, 2012 by Turbosrrgood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ieatcrayonz Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Did someone say Anna Kournikova? No. It is Alexander Tounkara. Years ago his dad was a tag team partner with Mr. Fuji. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BILLS #1 Posted May 1, 2012 Author Share Posted May 1, 2012 He has signed with the buffalo bills as part of the 3 day rookie mini camp. Worth a shot i guess.. http://www.brownbears.com/sports/m-footbl/2012-13/releases/201204302car2q Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ 'Em Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Another very little-known fact about Fitz is that unlike most married players, he wears his wedding ring during games. No I heard Ryan Fitzgerald and Ryan Fitzsimmons both wear their wedding rings too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ieatcrayonz Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 He's a Belgium which makes this whole thing more boring than it already was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shibuya Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 It actually says his 40 time is 4.48 ... I found another link where they say 4.81 which does seem strangely slow http://cache.profootballweekly.com/prospects/player/alexander-tounkara-83/ if he runs a 4.5 that seems much more respectable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Grid Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 a 4.81 40 yrd dash is pretty slow for a kid that tall and lanky...I'm 6'3" 250 and run faster than that...just sayn' 4.80 40? At 6'3" 250 Lbs, I'd buy a Sub 4.8 20....but that's about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 That's alright they could use a sundial to time my 40. I once downed 3, 40's in a row. Boy was I bloated. It was Mickeys btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Barbarian Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 http://www.blogtalkradio.com/purplein1/2012/03/13/nfl-draft-time-with-alexander-tounkara-wr-brown Hey I heard we signed Usain Bolt to fill our Megatron role. http://a323.yahoofs.com/ymg/ept_sports_fantasy_experts__17/ept_sports_fantasy_experts-958493712-1251075583.jpg?ymAo3xBDDlUJuP6i Usain Bolt is as tall as Calvin Johnson (6-5) and he's faster than any human, ever. Thus it shouldn't be a surprise that we occasionally speculate about his NFL potential. The world record holder in the 100-meters and 200-meters would probably hold his own at the combine. In fact, Bolt would likely shame anyone else who's ever competed. After reviewing 20-meter splits from the world championships, ESPN track and field reporter Larry Rawson declared that Bolt would run an NFL-style 40-yard dash in … well, in an absurd time. Almost inconceivably low. Way less than four seconds. You can listen to Rawson right here. These were his comments: LR: "Forty yards, if he was being hand-timed by a scout and reacting to his movement - not electronically timed the way they do it [in track and field] - his 40-yard dash on a track, in spikes, would be 3.73 seconds." Host: [Laughter] "He would run a sub four-second 40-yard dash?" LR: "Listen, I did the math as though it was electronically timed, which it's not for football – electronically timed – and it came out to 3.97 seconds." http://sports.yahoo.com/fantasy/blog/roto_arcade/post/Usain-Bolt-would-run-the-40-in-WHAT-?urn=fantasy,184570 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And can he catch anything? For a publicity stunt someone should work him out, or have a "Pro Day" I'd love to see it though. Edited May 2, 2012 by Why So Serious?
