Your “Hotheads Hotheading” Thursday Evening Open Thread

NFL Noise:

• The AB thing is over a $4000 moving dispute.
  • A company he hired to store & ship his stuff back from California refused to unload it at his house because he refused to pay.
    • When the van drove away, AB threw rocks at it, causing minor damage.
  • When he called to apologize & promise to pay the $4000 + $800 “damages”, they agreed to return.
    • Then Brown & Brown’s trainer, Glenn Holt, grabbed the van’s keys, assaulted the driver & threw him out of the van.
      • They began unloading Brown’s stuff, including items in the van that weren’t his.
      • “Burglary with battery” – a Florida felony.
  • The driver called the cops.
    • TMZ has the audio, but here’s the money quote:
      • “The guy is high, he smoked, he threatened me,” the driver says in an accent that sounds Russian. “He’s trying to fight, he throws stones at my truck.”
    • Holt was arrested & Brown ran inside the house to avoid them.
  • Florio compares the whole incident to the thing OJ did which got him the Nevada jail time.

• Stadium updates:
  • Las Vegas Raiders – Allegiant Stadium – 80% complete.
    • Henderson, NV training complex not on schedule.
      • Training camp to be held in Alameda, CA.
  • LA Rams – SoFi Stadium – 85% complete.
    • The first events at SoFi Stadium will be Taylor Swift concerts on July 25 and 26.

^{The avarice & resemblance is uncanny.}

• Campbell’s Spicy Chunky – Donovan McNabb has reignited his beef with Terrell Owens.
  • In a story with Sports Illustrated, McNabb blames TO for the Eagles not returning to the Super Bowl.
    • McNabb blames the offseason & preseason contract dispute, saying
      • “He’s doing sit-ups, he’s doing pushups, he’s playing basketball, he’s ordering pizza for people out there, we’re sitting at training camp like, ‘you gotta be kidding me.’”
  • Naturally, TO’s got his side & a Twitter account.

I’m going to be away for a while. The buddy I went on the baseball trip with this summer got got by his cancer yesterday. I’m going to help the family with arrangements & clearing out his shit. In advance I’m appreciating all your condolences & thoughts, and will be back eventually. But I’m not going to lie – this one hurts a lot.
