Kurt Angle Mark Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 From Dave Meltzer Brock Lesnar was all over the news again yesterday after a skirmish during a Vikings-Chiefs scrimmage. When Lesnar assisted on a tackle of running back Jonathan Smith, Chiefs player Jonathan Ingram shoved him off Smith. Lesnar shoved him back and a bunch of fights broke out. There were other minor fights in the game as well. Lesnar also got heat with the Chiefs for a sack on QB Damon Huard, which drew a big response from the crowd of 6,000. Huard was knocked silly, and had to go to the sidelines and sit out a few plays. Giving hard hits to QB's in scrimmages violates an unwritten understanding, and the Chiefs were not too happy with him. Lesnar was again featured on Sports Center last night.

Giving hard hits to QB's in scrimmages violates an unwritten understanding, and the Chiefs were not too happy with him. One word sums this up: Moron He'll most likely be on the practice squad since he's got zero clue about professional football it seems from the story and needs more than 3 months to work on his game.
razazteca Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 Brock Lesnar is doing it on purpose because he is still employed by WWE. Vince sent Lesnar to the NFL to get national publicity and it's working! Conspiracy Theory #04295
Guest Staravenger Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 Maybe Damon Huard is gay. Brock said he doesn't like gay people, and even told us to write that down.
Guest El Satanico Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 Perhaps hitting the QB was going too far, but the fighting is common this time of the year. Besides that qoute says the Chiefs player pushed Brock first.
Cartman Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 Brock is hated by regular NFL veterans so fights are going to happen no matter what he does.
Art Sandusky Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 This sounds scary, but he may be too intense for the NFL.
Guest Staravenger Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 Brock is hated by regular NFL veterans so fights are going to happen no matter what he does. He's probably hated by no-name players who bust their asses to just get tryouts too.
bobobrazil1984 Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 From the Torch article quotes, it sounds like some of the Vikings might actually like him for this, http://www.pwtorch.com/artman/publish/article_9392.shtml
the pinjockey Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 I figured this would happen as soon as Lesnar got involved in a normal training camp incident. If the article is accurate, then the Chiefs player started the incident. And I would like to see the hit on Huard. Having to sit out a few plays does not exactly seem to be the effects of a huge hit by a 290 pound man. If he was out the rest of the day or was going to be out an extended period of time, then maybe get on Brock for hitting to hard. But come on, sitting out a few plays? Cry me a river.

the pinjockey Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 And now reading the article metro linked to, Huard had the wind knocked out of him. I'll repeat. Cry me a river.
Guest El Satanico Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 I was about to post that he just had the wind knocked out of him. Boohoo
Guest Staravenger Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 Oh, I missed that. OK, the reports shouldn't have made it sound like Brock killed him if they didn't really know. <--feels sheepish
Guest El Satanico Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 Well I'm sure everyone reading this thread thought Brock killed him based on original article.
Guest Staravenger Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 I'll clarify that...the REAL tackle was just him knocking the wind out of him momentarily. The report made it sound like Brock tried giving the QB the hardest tackle possible.
1234-5678 Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 I hope he makes the team and I can watch the freakshow unfold every Sunday.
bobobrazil1984 Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 ^ as far as entertainment value, it would be great to see what sort of stunts Brock would pull.
MrRant Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 Do the Raven's play Minnesota this year? It would be fun to try and watch Ray Lewis and Brock try and out do the other's INTENSITY~! by spinebustering people on the field.

It would be fun to try and watch Ray Lewis and Brock try and out do the other's INTENSITY~! by spinebustering people on the field. I'd jump on a plane in half a second to see that. Brock = comedy of the NFL.
the pinjockey Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 There are many worse ways to use the 53rd roster spot, then on a guy who is all energy and is out to prove himself on every play. Especially considering that attitude is tailor made for a great special teams player.
Guest El Satanico Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 Brock and Ray could even cut promos at midfield before the coin toss.
the pinjockey Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 They need to have Brock in the lineup for week 2 against the Eagles. It is the Vikings first Monday night game and it would amuse me to see Brock go head to head with Raw.
Rob E Dangerously Posted August 7, 2004 Report Posted August 7, 2004 Call me back when Brock gives the opposing QB an F5

Guest JRE Posted August 8, 2004 Report Posted August 8, 2004 Brock and Ray could even cut promos at midfield before the coin toss. Brock needs Heyman to cut promos.
Guest Salacious Crumb Posted August 8, 2004 Report Posted August 8, 2004 Maybe he can actually bring some energy and heart to the Vikings. Lord knows they constantly roll over and die whenever they come across a challenge.
Steviekick Posted August 8, 2004 Report Posted August 8, 2004 Call me back when Brock gives the opposing QB an F5 THAT would make me watch football.
