“We’re running out of guys out here. We’re on reserves. Practice squad guys. I’m ready to roll if they need me. I’m 26 years old. I played two years! Varsity! I’m in the best shape of my life! Let’s go Eagles!”
Edit – this is a line from a movie, yeah? Invincible? Gotta double check.
This is perfect. Much better than anything the F Lot Crew has ever said or done. We need to get this guy on Good Day Philadelphia tomorrow, with Mike Jerrick and Alex Holley.
