Chris Cooley Blog Update - Poker night, whiskey, cigars, and Bon Jovi

[Warren85Ellard]

I just hope that Cooley takes care of himself. He has been a thrill to watch and we all want him to play as long as he possibly can. I know that he's not the first pro athlete to get loaded, but advertising it is a bit amateur. I love the story about the Hogs and Riggo meeting up in a shed after practice and throwin a few back. I love it even more how Theismann wasn't allowed to be there. I've also heard that John Riggins could be found at the Vienna Inn, well past midnight on gameday!! It seems like all of the old baseball players were drunks and many of them played drunk from time to time. Vlade Divac supposedly smoked close to a pack a day during his playing days in the NBA. I guess lungs aren't really that important when it comes to basketball! The most incredible story has to be Dock Ellis pitching a no-hitter on LSD: LSD and the No-Hitter . While this kind of stuff is fun to talk about, it's probably not a good idea for Cooley to promote it himself, since he makes a ton of money to stay in excellent shape and play football. If he keeps playing like he has though, I won't jump on him for it. Oh yeah, he shouldn't let it be known that "Captain Chaos" listens to Bon Jovi either.

Then again, it may be a good idea for Cooley, as he is drawing an awful lot of attention to himself and is suddenly becoming a fan favorite outside of DC. This will certainly help sell a lot of Cooley jerseys. You can almost imagine his agent writing it for him...

Cooley cracks me up, going all in with a Jack/9. The whiskey had nothing to do with that ;-)

I am very concerned about the Bon Jovi. SLAYER! SLAYER! SLAYER! He's a pro bowler now, he needs to hard core it up!

Some of you are being ridiculous about this. No where in the blog does it say anything about getting wasted, hammered, sloshed or any other synonyms for drunk. Chris is just telling a stories of his life and just the mention of whisky or beer means he's now a drunk? Ya'll sound like a bunch of mormans from Utah on here. Give it a break. It is fun, real, and if you didn't notice, Chris is still working his ass off in the weight room. Watch the videos.

Exactly. Cooley has never shown any indication that he isn't a hard worker. He's entitled to have his fun.

Yeah I actually watched those. Inspired me to do a brutal leg workout today at the gym. I'll be feeling it tomorrow fo sho.

I don't think anyone said he's a drunk. Hell, I love to tip a few more than occasionally and I certainly don't consider myself a drunk. The blog does mention "inebriation" a few times, which is in fact a synonym for being wasted. Pretty much everyone on here has no problem with what he's doing. I just don't want to see the media rip the guy. He and Sellers have become my favorite Redskins (RIP Sean). I didn't start this thread to rag on Cools, I just know how the media loves to tear up athletes, and I don't want that to happen to Chris.

Well said. It's funny, you can clearly see people fishing for an argument that isn't here. Cooley is everyone's favorite Redskin. It is just clear that this will someday be used against him.

stick around here long enough and you'll see that people make big deals out of nothing all the time.

Cooley rocks. Work hard, play hard. After all these self-righteous athletes (Clemens, i.e) BSing about their lives, it's refreshing to hear one tell the truth.

Keep rocking, Captain Chaos.

Yeah man, the thing I love about Cooley the most is how real he is. He plays like a pro but is very down to earth. This is why he is my favorite Skin.
