After watching the guy play all those years in Green Bay and having the privilege of watching him in purple in Minnesota, I have grown accustomed to New Orleans Saints safety Darren Sharper’s capacity for smack talk. Sharper was back at it again on Twitter when he made a not very veiled threat regarding Brett Favre and his recently surgically-repaired ankle.
Surprising? No. Amusing? Absolutely. Sharper’s best years – in playing terms – might be behind him, but he can still talk the talk with the best of them.
Since it’s Sunday, you know, there’s going to be sex, drugs, rock-n-roll… chips, dips, chains, whips… You know, your basic high school orgy type of thing. I mean, uh, I’m not talking candlewax on the nipples, or witchcraft or anything like that, no, no, no. Just a couple of hundred kids running around in their underwear, acting like complete animals.
