Clinton Portis, Redskins teammates did shots before games

If you want to commiserate in another teams' lost season in NFL lore I saw this weird story crop up on Twitter,

 

I know it's tragic about Sean Taylor, but they were doing this way back. And why Hennessy??

 

I don't even know what Jim Zorn is supposed to do in that situation.. He didn't even seem to hard pressed about it. Just let it go I guess. Takes a certain kind of coach to deal with that.

 

This is the full story https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/dc-sports-bog/wp/2017/12/05/clinton-portis-and-santana-moss-lost-more-than-a-friend-when-sean-taylor-died/?utm_term=.80fcb9598e78

I never did this but I kinda wish I had. I'd get so nervous before games, I'd want to puke. A shot would have eased that.  I know many people who have a glass of wine before job interviews. 

ha I'd have incredible anxiety before games, I don't think I could stomach liquor by the time I'm in the locker room. Could barely force down water.

WTF??? How would any coach allow that to happen??

A Gibbs thing I guess, he must have seen everything by that point. IIRC they were pretty good before he retired and Zorn came in.

I actually think all NFL players should do a shot before a game. Probably would relax players a little bit and maybe save on some injuries 

 

Except half the league is loaded up on painkillers since the league won't let them smoke a bowl lol.

 

Combining alcohol with all those pills can't be good.

Id imagine there’s also an awful lot of stimulant use as well. I mean, who wouldn’t want to rip off a few lines before running out of the tunnel!?

I actually think all Buffalo Bills fans should take a shot of morphine before games, would ease the pain a little bit.  Just a little.

Anyone remember the interview with Russell Wilson in the tunnel right before the MNF game vs Bills last year? There is no doubt in my mind he was on something. Sweating profusely and talking so fast it was almost maniacal.

I did not see this but would like to now lol

Adderral. 

 

Thats the next question I want to hear from Jim Gray's mouth.

 

"Tom, TOM do you have a prescription for adderral?

Glad you remembered that. That was ridiculous. He looked/spoke like a certified lunatic. There's zero chance he was sober at that moment.

Exactly - I was thinking wtf were they doing in that locker room before the game? I think I know. Dick Sherman’s been caught with adderall before.
