Joseph Fauria, anyone?

What happened to him? Flash in the pan?

He would be more lethal in our 4 TE package in the redzone than Hooman.

Remember how Mrs Bruschi had a wicked case of the hots for his uncle?
Good times!

I'll take the Hooman for $1,000 Alex.

He was solid, steady and clutch during the playoff run last year. If you noticed, his playing time increased as Wrights decreased.

Hoo man is almost always in the right place, rarely misses a block and has more than adequate pass catching skills. He was a decent #2 but a really great #3, imho.

Rumors have it that he came out in the Lions Locker Room that he was gay and it went over like a lead balloon.. Supposedly cause a lot of disharmony and was part of the reason he was released.

Must be true because when my wife & Mrs B used to get hot & bothered about his uncle, I'd always say, "He's gay!"

But seriously, guys would care if he were gay?
Then again, I remember being in the locker room after lunchtime basketball at work. Drying off after showering I commented to the guys around me, "Yeah I know I suck at B-ball but I really enjoy the lithe young bodies showering!" Guys reflexively grabbed their towels and covered themselves.

Hoohah might rarely miss a block, but the other guy doesn't stay blocked for very long.
He also might have adequate pass-catching skills (I wouldn't say more than adequate), but he goes absolutely nowhere after he makes the catch.
And he was never a decent #2; in fact, he was a lousy #2 and only a decent #3.
Hoohah is easily replaceable, so I would certainly bring Joseph Fauria to Foxborough for a workout.

...injury shadow rooster ...
edit: *roster
although there must be a gay joke about ****-a-doodle-do there.

Will we ever find out what went down there with the Lions and Fauria sitting 20 yards away from his teammates on another bench alone? I heard the gay angle. I was just wondering if we'll ever hear anything concrete?

This is a picture of Fauria from one of the Lions' preseason games.



In any case, I suspect Belichick has no f—ks to give about his sexuality (whatever it might be), only his ability to play football.

And, if the rumors regarding Peyton Hillis are true, I don't see why McDaniels would have an issue, either.
