Redskin's Star Tasered Himself
 

So, two questions: (1) How did Nick Sundberg achieve "Star" status in Great Britain? (2) Why would you taser yourself?

The secrets revealed!!!

We have a drunk thread...right. In that light, it seems reasonable to find a permanent home for.....treasures such as this.

Re: Redskin's Star Tasered Himself
 

Has anyone on this board been tasered? lol you don't have to explain why (you were drunk and belligerent and the cops didn't put up with your shenanigans) but just how did it feel?

Re: Redskin's Star Tasered Himself
 

JoeRedskin has advised me not to respond until the current disciplinary appeals process with the NFLPA and Mgmt has been resolved or Jonathon Vilma returns.....

Re: Redskin's Star Tasered Himself
 

Never been tasered but I had some electro-shock therapy for an injured ligament. That felt like burning pins being jammed into you.

I wasn't a fan of Sundberg early in his career after replacing the Red Snapper and his early struggles, but he's become a reliable long snapper and now I just think he's awesome.

We keep finding some real gems at this position. Are all team's long snappers insane? Maybe they just need to find ways to keep themselves entertained...it's probably the least-active position on a football team.

Re: Redskin's Star Tasered Himself
 

El Oh El Sundberg is all kinds of badass. Heal up fast and get back out there!

I wanna try the taser but can't because of a heart condition (reappearing murmur w/ irregular beat). Anybody ever had the feeling their heart turns over in your chest? First time I felt it it was like taking off in an airplane lol...

Re: Redskin's Star Tasered Himself
 

I have a ton of titanium plates and screws in me, so I might explode...or will they just heat up inside of me? :D

Not eager to find out.

Re: Redskin's Star Tasered Himself
 

I know not to get tazed on a full stomach.

I shows another good pick up by the front office. That pick has the George Allen coming out in Bruce Allen.

lol that's excellent

Goat, you and I need to stay out of airports.

Re: Redskin's Star Tasered Himself
 

This may be the only time and place that Sundberg is referred to as a "star"

At first when I saw this thread I thought you were talking about Barry Cofield taking his sack celebration to a new level...

Sundberg's been placed on the new IR, and the Redskins officially announced the signing of Justin Snow

Nice. Any inside scoop and "discussions" with Cooley?

Re: Redskin's Star Tasered Himself
 

[quote=SmootSmack;939681]Sundberg's been placed on the new IR, and the Redskins officially announced the signing of Justin Snow[/quote]

So do we have to wait until week 8 to get him back or is it 8 weeks from the date you put him on the new IR? Either way, glad we get the ability to take him off the roster for 8 weeks and then put him back on.

Re: Redskin's Star Tasered Himself
 

Has to miss the next 8 weeks of games, nothing new on Cooley

Wait so isn't it everyone goes to IR if they're injured. If their not that injured, theres one player that can go on IR and come back right? So are we wasting that one spot on a LS?

Not sure I follow what you're asking

Re: Redskin's Star Tasered Himself
 

[quote=SmootSmack;939725]Not sure I follow what you're asking[/quote]

What I'm asking is this:

Theres always been IR, which is a player gets injured and put there and cant return for the rest of the season.

Now theres this new IR, which I heard is when a player gets injured but gets the designated to return tag on him. I also heard that only once in the whole season can you use the 'designated to return tag' once.

So my questions are; Is it true you can only use that once? And if its true that you can only use it once, did we just use that on a freakin LS?

Re: Redskin's Star Tasered Himself
 

Yes. And yes

Re: Redskin's Star Tasered Himself
 

[quote=SmootSmack;939728]Yes. And yes[/quote]

:doh:

So when Orakpo or London or Trent Williams or someone like that breaks their leg and is out for 5 weeks we're just screwed then in terms of giving up their roster spot to someone else and putting them on this special new IR..which we used that 1 time thing on a freaking LS...wow

Re: Redskin's Star Tasered Himself
 

Out for 5 weeks with a broken leg..lol

Well I mean I guess they could assume someone else
could get hurt just enough to miss significant time yet return during the season (though you chose some odd examples), but right now no one else did and they had to make a decision on Sundberg

The baddest mo-fo long snapper on the planet.

Totally worth it.

Chances are good that Oakland may have scooped Sundberg up if we released him, and other teams too.

He's a quality longsnapper. It's a position we forget about and take for granted. We only notice these guys when they screw up...so when you have a good one like we do, you hang onto him.

That's a good way to put it.

LOL when you put it that way it kinda seems like a questionable decision...but it'll be alright we've faced that reality forever.

Re: Redskin's Star Tasered Himself
 

Sorry Red Snapper. It would appear you have been replaced.
