• The Jaguars wide receiver Troy Williamson carries a serious grudge against Brad Childress
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Troy Williamson will face his old team, the Minnesota Vikings, on Sunday at Jacksonville Municipal Stadium. Most players hope to make big plays against their former teams, but Williamson is taking it to another level. He wants to fight Vikings head coach Brad Childress.
Troy is still pissed off about Childress fining him a game check for missing a week with the team when he was in South Carolina after his grandmother’s funeral. The fine was later lifted, but the fact that it happened at all put Brad Childress on Troy Williamson’s Kill Bill list.
From the Associated Press:
“We can meet on the 50-yard line and we can go at it,” Williamson said.
The 6-foot-1, 200-pound receiver said he liked his chances against Childress, too, especially with a few inches and at least 10 pounds on the coach. Williamson even said he would fight with both hands tied behind his back.
Brad Childress was asked his thoughts on the fight and responded by trying to the kill the story with some comedy.
Childress initially said he wasn’t “biting” on Williamson’s comments, but when pressed about his height and weight on a conference call, he responded: “Do you need my reach? I’m not like a woman; I’ll give you my weight. It’s 190 pounds of twisted steel and rompin’, stompin’ dynamite. Is that enough humor for you?”
Somebody needs to get in Roger Goodell’s ear and tell him to make this happen. The chain-gang can rope off an area on the 50-yard line and let the two of them go at it. It could even be a feature before every NFL game.. Each team sends a guy to the 50 for a pre-game brawl. That way we could see Joey Porter and Brandon Marshall settle their beef, Brett Favre and Ted Thompson mix it up, and most importantly, we might get some cheerleader on cheerleader action.
