OT: A game ball for Larry Izzo

[Fencer]

Just saw this story. Haven't listened to the interview. Apologies if it was posted here when it was new, but I don't recall it.

Professional football players usually earn game balls for spectacular plays. One time, Larry Izzo earned one from Bill Belichick by taking a poop on the sideline without anybody noticing.

“I guarantee that game ball is probably a more prized item for him than his Super Bowl rings,” Wes Welker told ESPN’s Dan LeBatard on a recent episode of Dan LeBatard Is Highly Questionable.

Oh yeah, this is a running joke for many of us about "pulling an Izzo." Quite an accomplishment.

Explains why he spent so much time as #2 on the depth chart.......

That's a crap story.

Don't let Goodell know this will only serve to tarnish the NFL Shield or damage the "integrity" of the game..

"Dumpgate" is born..
