Harry Douglas Named NFC Special Teams POW

by Tron5000 on Nov 26, 2008 6:56 PM EST Comment 17 comments

According to the AJC, HD-WR (my new nickname for him...take a hike if you don't like it) has been named the NFC Special Teams Player of the Week. His 3 punt returns for a cool 93 yards, including a 61-yard backbreaker TD, earned HD-WR (get used to it) this award.

Well, at least something good came out of Louisville. And if you don't know to whom that refers, you're dead to me.

While Adam Jennings...

Better have gotten a degree from Fresno State.

Cause I don’t see “NFL Pro Bowler” etched into his tombstone in the future.

He'll be on VH1 sometime soon, I'm sure.

Glad I don’t watch that channel.

Do you have a girlfriend/fiancee/wife?

‘Cause I promise you’re bound to see it sooner or later.

Anyway, kudos to this staff for recognizing the deficiency at PR and acting to correct it. Jennings was garbage, and lack so much refuse, he was put out to the curb.

Beats our moves last year, like releasing the Gravy Train. And didn’t HD-WR have a few TD returns in college? What the heck took this long?

My Fiancee abhors VH1, so I'm safe.

Agreed, where the crap has HD-WR come from? I think he’s been body snatched by that Hester kid’s alien twin.

Either that or he’s been caught in the matrix and just now escaped, fully able to convert PRs into TDs.

I believe...

…he was trapped in the Phantom Zone with Superman, and somehow acquired Kryptonian speed-running abilities. He’s still working on the X-Ray vision and flight, so at least he’s got that going for him.

Actually

Speaking of Adam Jennings, he showed up to muff a punt for Detroit against the Titans. I don’t know that it had the game altering implications of his LAST punt return duties, but it certainly was nice to see him sucking for a different team for a change.

We’ve heard that a million monkeys at a million keyboards could produce the complete works of Shakespeare; now, thanks to the Internet, we know that is not true.

When will they learn?

Campaigning

I am still campaigning for someone to invent a drink named after HD. “The Harry Douglas” just sounds like it should be a drink name.

“Barkeep, I will take a Harry Douglas, hold the celery.”

I'll work on that

A Hairy Navel is vodka, peach schnapps and OJ. A Harry Douglas sounds like perhaps it should have gin instead of vodka. Gin and OJ, right on. Gin and peach? Hmm…..

Yes

I like where that’s going! I am not much a hard alcohol guy except for Gin. I love me some Hendricks Gin. I like the peach angle, it being Atlanta and all!

…like a western film star, Harry Douglas….The Real Dirty Harry!

go hard or go home

I'm a bartender

I’m gonna serve up a couple Harry Douglases during the game Sunday, and if he scores, it’s a round of Harry Douglas shots for everyone at the bar.

Crap. Game’s at 4 and I get off at 5. Dude better score in the 1st.

That could be a version..

…of the drink. I have no idea what makes a Martini “dirty” or not, but that now we have to come up with a Dirty Harry Douglas version of The Harry Douglas.

Don't know about that

What makes a martini “dirty” is the addition of olive juice. I think we may be on to something here with the gin, peach and OJ, but adding olive juice to the mix? That just sounds unholy, like some sort of concoction what may conjure up spirits and the like. This might be a bad idea.
