There has been a lot of talk about the Stanley Cup lately, but we at NE Patriots Draft must ask, where is the love for the Lombardi Trophy?

We get to see it on the field after the Super Bowl and maybe at the parade, but then it goes under lock and key.

We can only speculate then, what these players, coaches, and owners would do if they were granted 24 hours with the most prized possession in the NFL.

Chad Johnson: The Lombardi trophy would undoubtedly be part of some lame touchdown celebration.

Maurice Jones-Drew: Shine it up real nice and use it as a full-length mirror.

Ricky Williams: We know it is cliche and all, but we're pretty dang sure he'd try to smoke it.

Shaun Alexander: He probably wouldn't, but he should melt it down and make a knife and spoon to go with the big fork sticking out of his back.

Peyton Manning: About 16 different commercials.

Al Davis: Two words: Vertical routes.

Jon Gruden: He'd give it a tryout for the eighth and final QB spot on the roster.

Reggie Bush: He'd cut right, then left, and lose three yards with it.

Donovan McNabb: This is too far-fetched, we know No. 5 isn't ever going to win this.

Matt Leinart: One Word: Kegstop.

LT: They would stay classy. It's a full-time job people.

Herm Edwards: Sign it as a starting right guard.

Vince Young: Probably something NSFW.

Tom Brady: Put it back on his mantle.

  1. Haha that was really funny. You should add Michael Vick, Pacman Jones, Tony Romo, Jeremy Shockey, Eli Manning... you could really do a lot more

  2. Funny stuff James! I liked the MJD one...hilarious! Keep up the good work!

    1. Thanks Andrew! MJD is not tall.

    2. Pinballs are never tall.

  3. should've added Tiki Barber to say-"I'm an idiot this could've been mine but instead a 265 pound running back took my spot!

  4. the reggie bush one is classic and true. Although i'd have to say i'd like to win it with ricky.

  5. Dennis Green - hit in the face and tell it "you were who i thought you were!"

    T.O. - would get mad at it for stealing his limelight then throw it under the bus to the media

    Shaun Rogers - eat it

    Joey Porter - use it as a weapon during his next fight

    Joe Namath - try to have drunken sex with it

    Lawrence Taylor & Michael Irvin - use it to powder their noses

    Pac-Man - pawn it for straight cash so he could make it rain

  6. Funny Raidersteve...I was going to say he'd probably hollow it out, carve out a bowl somwhere along the front and suck the top of the football!

  7. As an Eagles fan... it makes me sad. Cause it's probably true :(

  8. Ha Ha

    good stuff

  9. What's funny James is that when I read the title for the article, I said to myself, "Smoke it."

    Two words. That's it.

    This was really, really funny.

    And by the way, Cedric Benson would go boating with it.

    1. Brady might date it, get it pregnant and then dump it for next year's trophy.

      AND I'M OUT! Tip your servers!

  10. The one about Reggie Bush is great, and reminds of a quote from former Browns running back Leroy Hoard. As best as I can remember, he said, "If you need 2 yards, I can get you 3. If you need 10 yards, I can get you 3." :P

    1. I remember that quote! Hilarious!
