A Day in the Life: Detective Roc Hoover

Jan. 29, 2009   1 Comment  

7 AM: Roll over in bed and say to my wife, “You’ve gotta ask yourself one question, do you know what it’s like to play in the National Football League?”

7:01 AM: My wife responds by kicking me in the groin after realizing that I pissed in the bed again. Yet another flashback to my playing days.

7:15 AM: Roll out of bed and limp to the bathroom. Wingo and I have NFL Live today, and I’ve gotta study my lines before we go on-air. Absolutely no question we’re talking about the National Football League.

7:30 AM: Call my son and ask him how his “goat” is growing in. He seems drunk and pissed off and asks me why the hell I’m calling him when its 5:30 AM in Arizona on a Friday morning. I respond by saying “You’ve gotta ask yourself one question when you’re talking about the National Football League,” and hang up.

10:00 AM: I arrive at the ESPN campus after getting lost again. I see my boy Wingo sittin’ in the studio reading over some stats and news from the night before. I tell him that I’ve been studying my lines and am ready for the show. He proceeds to inform me that I had been reading my 3-sentence part for my monthly appearance on Guiding Light. Shit.

10:02 AM: Wingo asks me how I’m doing.

1:14 PM: After thinking about it, I respond, “Absolutely no question about the National Football League, I’m talking about the National Football League, no question.”

2:03 PM: I just finished my lunch: 4 EAS bars and some Bengay for my knees.  You’ve gotta absolutely ask yourself the question, “hey stink was all the pain and suffering worth it?”

2:08 PM: As far as I’m concerned the National Football League and blitz packages are absolutely worth more than my family.  No question, now you ask yourself.

2:39 PM: My phone rings. . . It’s Sears.  The Suits on the other end want me to promote a new ultimate football experience.  I tell them that the true ultimate football experience is absolutely no question in the trenches of the National Football League where the true tough guys play.  John Elway, I played with him.  Brett Favre no question, leadership, football, national, ask yourself.”

3:45 PM: I’ve just changed into my new brown and white pinstripe suit. We’re talkin about Perry Ellis, National Football League, Super Bowl.

3:58: We’re just about to go on the air when I get a call from the Suits at the Life Time Network .  They’re coming over this weekend to film more of my family’s upcoming reality show.  We’re talkin about. Stink Schlereth. on a channel. designed for women.  Absolutely, from a football and physical man standpoint, you’ve gotta ask yourself if you’re humbled by the honor, no question I asked myself, talkin about absolutely.

4:00 PM: Me and Trey go on the air. I make sure to relate any NFL story to the fact that I played with John Elway.

4:17 PM: I stop the show to mention that I played with John Elway once again and ask the entire viewing audience, “When you step in that National Footbal League locker room and put that jersey on, you’re representing the National Football League. Absolutely, no question, you’ve gotta ask yourself if you’re that football team.”

4:18 PM: Wingo asks me what the hell I’m talking about.

4:21 PM: Let me tell you what, you know what,Usain Bolt, no question football absolutely i know fast guys, send them  in no question.  We’re talkin about physical, line up and hit you in the mouth physicality football, on and off the field no question they’re a physical football team.

4:23 PM: I walk over to the EA Sports Virtual Field and can’t find any of the players I see when I’m watching on TV. Absolutely, no question, I’ve gotta ask myself where the players are.

4:30 PM: I spent 7 minutes on the virtual field  analyzing the 6 yard quick-out pattern yard by yard and stressing the importance of getting the National Football League football into the wide receiver’s hands who is wearing National Football League sponsored gloves. Lastly, I divulged some information that most analysts do not even know… absolutely no question that football is a ’physical-contact-line-up-and-hit-you-in-the-mouth-blitz-package-offensive-scheme type of game.’  Ne absolutely no question that the show’s over.

5:00 PM: I start my trip home after mapquesting my address. Those head slaps must’ve gotten the best of me during my career. By the way, I played with Elway and the Denver Broncos.

5:15 PM: My Red Dodge Ram breaks down on the side of the interstate, apparently the gas gauge wasn’t broken.

5:16 PM: I call my fellow Alaskan Governor Palin for some advice. We’re both from Alaska, but I wasn’t lucky enough to be blessed with her intelligence. Absolutely no question she could’ve been an O-Coordinator in the National Football League. You’ve gotta ask yourself that question when you’re talking about a football team.

7:00 PM: The tow truck arrives. The spare time gave me a chance to study my 3 Guiding Light sentences.

7:45 PM: I finally get home. It’s been a long day.

7:47 PM: Dive into my 8th EAS MyoPlex Bar. Absolutely no question Now I’m done.

8: 00 PM: I fall asleep watching clips of Super Bowl XXXII. Absolutely no question that Elway looked great.

Travis Henry Wants To Star In Blow 2

Oct. 1, 2008   1 Comment  

The news just broke that some guy was stopped in Montana with 6 pounds of marijuana and 3 kilos of cocaine. This man divulged that Travis Henry was behind the transaction and the Tennessee product was arresting for intent to distribute, there was a little over $63,000 in the car. It’s just a good thing that Henry took that suspension for a 3rd positive weed test so seriously. Also, it’s probably better that he will be spending time in the clink, away from his 9 illegitimate kids. They weren’t getting their child support anyway.

Double Cheeseburgers 4 Life

March 25, 2008   Leave a Comment  

Breakout wide reciever of the Denver Broncos, Brandon Marshall, had surgery yesterday after severing an artery, vein and nerve in his forearm along with tendons to five muscles. This accident occured after slipping on a McDonalds bag forcing his arm through an entertainment center. After reading this story I wanted a #2, and I went and got one, now I’m Lovin’ It.

Along with staisfying my hunger, this story also reminded me of a few other ridiculous injuries from the past couple years. Check some other classics at these two places 1 and 2

Here’s Jeff Kent staying country in San Fran back in 2002, as he broke his wrist washing his truck that had a lift kit.

Adam Eaton of the Padres missed a start in 2001 after stabbing himself in the stomach while trying to open a new cd.

How about Joel Zumaya making like a 12 year old and injuring himself by playing too much Guitar Hero.

My favorite injury however would have to be the mishap that occurred in the Jacksonville Jaguars locker room in 2003. In Jack Del Rio first season he used the slogan “Keep Chopping Wood” which included the introduction of an ax and stump in the locker room as a symbol. Punter, yes punter, Chris Hanson found this to be an appropriate venue to do some actual chopping like something out of the Great Outdoor Games (they really are great). While weilding the ax, Hanson mistakenly gashed his kicking foot requiring surgery, stiches and 4-6 weeks off the field. Del Rio should just be happy that Ax Men wasn’t on back in ’03, might have given them too many ideas, namely John Henderson.
