He then walked off the field.Okay, this one gets filed under Jeff Kent "washing his truck". But this proves the point... preseason games can be dangerous.

NJTank Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 Amazing hopefully he wont be hurt too badly because if he is someone on the Titans will be in trouble. Imagine if this happened to Reggie Bush or something. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZBoyer Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 Amazing hopefully he wont be hurt too badly because if he is someone on the Titans will be in trouble. Imagine if this happened to Reggie Bush or something. How would someone on the Titans "be in trouble"? The dude got hit by a golf cart while he was throwing stuff into the stands. How fast could he have been going? Nothing's going to happen, it's not a big deal, I'm sure he'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred T. Jane Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Is it just me, or whenever you hear about the New Orleans Saints in the news, that you can hear blooper music playing in your head? This one? [Croatia National Team Manager Slavan] Bilic then went on to explain how Croatia's success can partially be put down to his progressive man-management techniques. "Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players. I go to the room of Vedran Corluka and Luka Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes." Maybe Capello could try getting through to his players this way too? Although how far he'd get with Joe Cole jumping up and down on the mattress and Rooney demanding to be read his favourite page from The Very Hungry Caterpillar is open to question. --The Guardian's Fiver, 08 September 2008 Attention: In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from your stay at the CCSLC, the reader is advised that the above post may contain large amounts of sarcasm, dry humour, or statements which should not be taken in any true sort of seriousness.

Broken Record Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 I've worn a mascot costume quite a bit and I'll tell you first hand that vision inside those cartoony heads isn't that great. I can definitely see hitting someone by mistake in close quarters like that. I've accidentally stepped on little kids before when I didn't have a spotter with me.Generally, I think T-Rac goes back to the locker rooms before he teams come back out on the field. This was probably just a preseason timing mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Well I dont think the gut driving the cart was wearing a mask he was driving T_Rac www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEAD! Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Well I dont think the gut driving the cart was wearing a mask he was driving T_Rac ... you're right, the mascot was only riding the cart.... it said so right at the first post quoting the articleNASHVILLE, Tenn. - New Orleans quarterback Adrian McPherson went to the locker room early in the third quarter after a golf cart ridden by the Titans' mascot hit him at the end of halftime Saturday night.ADVERTISEMENTA Saints spokesman wasn't immediately available for an update on the quarterback, who's heading into his second season.The mascot was riding on a golf cart and throwing items into the stands during halftime, and was heading off the field when the Saints were returning from their locker room for the third quarter.The cart hit McPherson, who stayed on the field for a few minutes being checked out by a trainer on the sideline.

Broken Record Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Ahh, I wasn't paying attention. T-Rac does have a cart that he drives himself, so I assumed that was it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSky Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 No, I was at the game and nobody drives T-Rac, he drives himself:Here's McPherson playing on kickoff coverage in the first half, and looking like, well, a quarterback covering a kickoff.

NJTank Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 which means he may not be a QB much longer www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSky Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 which means he may not be a QB much longer Maybe, maybe not. The guy just wants to play. Joe Theismann returned punts for the Redskins and he ended up being a pretty good QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
