Lavar & Michael Vick Get Owned on Pros vs Joes
 
Yea, thats right 3 guys off the street beat Michael V., Lavar, and Isaac Bruce on Pros vs Joes. It was about the most lack luster performance I have ever seen from the pros over the years of watching. Lavar kept talking about jacking someone up but he barley landed a hand on any of the joes. If anyone calls into Lavars show ask him what happened and why he let some street boys run all over him. Think MV is still in the NFL and I'm sure his coaches loved seeing this and to think he is the Eagles back up QB.

I watched this last night. Man oh man.

Lavar looked awful. Vick looked terrible. Isaac Bruce has still got it. They came across liked they just showed up and kind played around then got serious when they realized they were getting beat.

Vick also talked a lot of smack, which i wasnt a fan of. You dont celebrate or talk tough when you beat a Joe. You celebrate when you beat a Pro.

To be fair the Joes talk smack and the pros talk smack and thats the way its always been on that show. Last night I actually started watching because I figured at some point Lavar would jack up one of the Joes but he never came close.

Okay, ive only seen the show a few times, and i just returned to the 21st century because i got cable tuesday. Lavar definitly looked the worst, and could barely wrap people up when trying to tackle.

To be fair, dorrell jalloh (one of the Joes) was a WR at WVU from 05-08, he wasnt by any means spectacular but was definitely a contributor, scoring 5 TD's his senior year, he definitely wasnt just some Joe off the street.

Lavar shouldn't have been on the show. It embarrassed him. And I say that out of respect to who he was, because he is now a shell of his former self. He has put on a terrible amount of weight since leaving the NFL.

He is obviously still hampered by his career ending injuries suffered in that motorcycle crash in 2007. (Broken Forearm, Broken Femur, Broken lower vertebrae).

I remember when there was buzz in 2008 that he was going to try an NFL return, but after seeing that, he has NOTHING left. But to be fair, the "joes" were all former college players, so its not like he was competing against amateurs. I bet Lavar could still lay the average guy flat....

Lavar did not look fat on the show and I thought a college player was an amateur? LOL I know what your saying but the whole point of the show is to take the guys who think they can play but did not make it and put them up against people who did make it to the pros.

The dude's knees were shot long before that motorcycle crash. The league was done with him before that crash, whether he wanted to admit it or not.

At one point Lavar's jersey came up and his massive stomach showed. He just looked soft all over, and i was shocked that he was in the NFL only 3 seasons ago. He was slow and lacked any kind of burst or strength.

I like Lavar. I was a huge fan of his when he was here. I just think in his condition, he shouldnt have appeared.

Really? Really? Nothing about Ronnie Brown and the Dolphins? It was all Vick and his half assed season in the wildcat last year?

Its a shame because I liked Lavar myself. Heck the only reason I stopped and started watching the show last night was because I knew Lavar was going to light someone up.

Shame, he was a physical monster when he came out of Penn State.

I guess this is what restaurant ownership does to a man.

He was starting to fatten up his last year in D.C.

SolidSnake84 07-30-2010 02:26 PM

Re: Lavar & Michael Vick Get Owned on Pros vs Joes
 
He either has physical limitations from the crash still, which is totally understandable, or has just let himself go badly.

Most of the Pros on that show are actually still good and look like they could still play in the NFL. Isaac Bruce looked like he could play for any team, and Rich Gannon last year still looked totally competent.

Interesting to note, the Pro team on this show had never been beaten before by a Joe team, and i think that has to do mostly with the fact that all 3 Joes all had college football experience. Watching them last night, i dont know why they didn't try for the NFL. Eric Hooks played in 3 national championships as QB, and Dorrell Jalloh was already very accomplished at WVU.

I'll watch again, because maybe i am just being too hard on Lavar, but he sure looked bad to me.

To be fair two of those guys played Division I football at CSU and WVU with Jalloh just leaving college last year so its not like they lost to a Peter Griffin type guy.

I thought Arkansas started it with McFadden and Jones and the Dolphins just perfected it.

Everyone on here seems to forget that D Hall could not even tackle a slow moving QB in the open field against Carolina last year that sealed a loss last year.

It was kind of a shame to see Isaac Bruce on there. To me (unless there's something I don't know about him, which is entirely possible) he's everything an NFL player should be. Talented, yet doesn't take his talents for granted, humble, a strong presence in the locker room and in the community. I see him lined up with LaVar and Vick and it's one of those "what doesn't belong" scenarios.

Off topic. So you think Daiz wins tonight? I see that baby bull by your avatar I think he loses just because of his last few fights Though Daiz and Marquez Fighting styles will make for very good tonight cant wait.

They've both struggled since their last bout with each other, but I think Marquez pulls off the decision as long as he can stay with Diaz physically I think he's the smarter boxer. He's much older though so he might get worn out.

All that being said, Baby Bull had nothing to do with that. A friend who's last name means bull in spanish and his wife had a baby girl this past week so that's what that's all about.
