Where do you get that?

Crabs was roommates with the campus coke dealer at Texas Tech, and when you be bunkin' with that type of crowd you eventually become no stranger to the "White China" yourself (you're either dealing or using on occasion in that sort of college atmosphere). -Specially if you're an athlete that's living off of tuition, without a job looking to earn some spending cash on the side.

I don't usually listen to 'here-say', but I heard they called him 'Crack Daddy Crabs', and 'Coke-head Crabs' down at Texas Tech.

You honestly think that this wasn't researched by teams? If there had been any significant evidence to suggest he was involved, don't you think it would have been a huge story in the media then and STILL?

I understand being pissed about the holdout, but damn...now you're grasping at straws.

Yeah we don't need to go this route

Michael Irvin turned out all right

What's worse? Buying his jersey or drafting him on your fantasy squad?

You guys are missing my point and making it too easy.

At least you didn't have to pay $70 to draft him on your fantasy squad.

Man I really thought I was going to wake up today and hear the news of him being signed. Man I'm starting think maybe he will hold out for the year especially if he is not signed by saturday.

LOL, one of my students picked him in 3 different fantasy drafts...

A diva (English pronunciation: /ˈdiːvə/, Italian: [ˈdiːva]) is a celebrated female singer. The term is used to describe a woman of outstanding talent in the world of opera, and by extension in theatre, cinema and popular music. The meaning of diva is closely related to that of "prima donna".

Crabtree: A woman of outstanding talent, lol.

Where do you get that?

Where does his "hearsay" come from...and just because his roommate was a coke dealer does not mean he had to sell or consume, that's a terrible generalization.

He is grasping at nothing, merely grasping the hot air blindly if anything.

I was thinking the same thing as I thought/think this was the day he was going to sign. Still, I think he signs no later than Saturday night.

For some reason, this holdout makes me think of a whining little boy who's stomping his feet cause he isn't getting his way. Unfortunately, I think once Crabs signs he going to pout and hold a grudge against the Niners cause he didn't get his way.

Hopefully this kid grows up and starts to see the world as it truly is...

If he signs and does act that way, he will only be shooting himself in the foot. See Brandon Marshall as example. He would cost himself more money than he already has.
