Torry Holt's finger is all messed up

Found November 11, 2011 on Larry Brown Sports: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Torry Holt
TEAMS: New England Patriots

Via Larry Brown Sports:

Although I have gathered that this is somewhat old news, I’m sharing it anyway because there are probably others out there like me who have never seen it. It is something we all need to witness. The above photo features Torry Holt’s finger in its natural position. Apparently he popped it out of its socket several times over his long and successful career. A few years back, it became dislocated and never returned to its proper position.  Now, Torry just goes with it.

Is there any possible way this can not be painful?  How does one catch a football with their finger permanently in that position?  It looks like it’s a strong breeze away from snapping off.  I think I speak for all of us when I say I will pray for Holt’s demented finger.  May it cling to life for as long as he lives.

Wes Welker Likes Little People Waiters At His Parties

Via Busted Coverage  |  November 10, 2011
New England Patriots receiver Wes Welker is probably the shortest dude in the NFL. He’s listed as 5’9″, but he’s probably a little shorter than that. So what does he do when he throws a party? He hires little people as waiters. TMZ reports that Welker specifically requested the catering company put a couple people shorter than him on the waitstaff, which is...

The clock is ticking for Patriots OL Marcus Cannon…

Via The Rap Sheet  |  November 11, 2011
More than two weeks ago, the Patriots had cancer survivor and offensive lineman Marcus Cannon practice, which was pretty cool after he began the year on the reserve/Non-Football Injury List. It was a touching situation. Yet Cannon is allowed to practice for just three weeks before the team has to decide whether to activate him or not. If it doesn’t, Cannon will have three weeks...

Stevan Ridley Focuses on Making Most Out of Sporadic Amount of Carries

Via NESN.com  |  November 10, 2011
FOXBORO, Mass. -- Running back Stevan Ridley hasn't gotten a consistent amount of reps during his rookie season with the Patriots, which isn't much of a surprise to anyone who has followed the team's recent trend at that position. Bill Belichick typically rides the hot hand, and there's usually no telling who gets the first opportunities to show what they've got...

A Haynesworth-less Patriots To Try and Stop Snide

Via The Penalty Flag  |  November 12, 2011
For the fourth time in seven games, the New England Patriots take on a team from the Empire State. This week’s match-up against the New York Jets not only will break up the three way tie for first place in the AFC East, but should also show a preview of a possible late round playoff game. The Patriots cut ties with the baggage laden Albert Haynesworth after he suited up for...

DT Haynesworth Claimed By Bucs Off Waivers

Via Rant Sports  |  November 09, 2011
On Wednesday evening the Tampa Bay Buccaneers got a boost on the defensive line, (if you can even call it that), by claiming former New England Patriot DT Albert Haynesworth off of waivers. The move certainly made sense seeing how DT Gerald McCoy was recently lost for the season. Certainly Haynesworth brings some baggage with him because of his past run-ins with coaches. While in...

Video: Haynesworth on joining Bucs

Via Bucs Beat  |  November 10, 2011
Defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth considered signing with the Bucs a few years ago, when he was a free agent. He said Tampa Bay made him an offer, but he chose to sign a $100 million deal with the Redskins. But after some struggles in Washington and New England, Haynesworth gets his shot to rejuvenate his career with the Bucs, who claimed him on Wednesday to help fill the void...

Cromartie knows the key to stopping Wes Welker

Via Pro Football Talk  |  November 10, 2011
Wes Welker’s insane receiving pace slowed down for a few games after he faced the Jets last time around. For two games, Welker caught only 12 passes 84 yards and a score. That’s not bad, but it’s not the record-breaking numbers we saw early in the season. Welker bounced back for a huge day against…

Does Ocho Have a Future With the Pats?

He has been picked up by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers following his release from the Pats.Chad Ochocinco, everyone’s favorite ex-Bengal and media star, is also one of the Pats’ underachievers and thus his position...
