If you haven’t heard, Chris Cooley of the Washington Redskins has his own blog over with Yahoo! Sports. It’s highly entertaining if you want to know the thoughts of a pro football player or, say, if you want to know what it’s like to pee while another man stares intently at your penis (from the blog):
Once the selection process ends the player must wash his hands before the real fun begins. Who knows what someone could put all over his fingers to tamper with the results? The test taker then takes his shirt off and moves into the bathroom stall. At this point the pants must go down below the knees. In my case they usually fall closer to the ankles. I feel like a four year-old kid standing bare-assed in front of the stall while my dad coaches me on, making sure I don’t piss all over myself.
To me, the most surprising thing is how players have to report for a drug test within 24 hours of being selected, no matter where they are in the world. That, my friends, is insane. I mean, what if the player is in South Africa (a 24-hour flight from the East Coast)? Or what if you’re Hines Ward and you’re in South Korea? Does the NFL send someone on the 12+hour flight just to collect his pee?
The NFL…I WANT THAT!
I think, one should have been called for drug test long before his selection. It is really ridiculous. Anyway, I am very delighted to know that Chris Cooley has a blog. I am going to visit it.
Thanks for your interesting article.
