He's from a school very close to the one I teach at. "The Pillsbury Throwboy", "Hefty Lefty" have been used in the past to describe him. I did the stats for our school when he was playing in high school. I'll never forget him coming out to warm up as a senior. He got on his knees at the 50 yard line, and threw the ball to Derek Smith in the end zone for about 10-15 minutes to warm up. Those two were quite the tandem at Highlands and UK. They won 3 basketball regions in a row as well, they were dominant on the hoops scene as well.

Seems like he should come back to the NFL now.

Can't wrap this guy up because no human's arms are that long. Can't hit him low as its a penalty, same for hitting him at the helmet area. He should be good to go.

Oh and 320 my ass....he's a biscuit short of 400 lbs.

If he can still put any distance on his throws with those arms then honestly it might be worth a look by some team. He's like a more extreme version of Rapistburger.

We should totally do an FOFC get together at one of his home games.

Assuming tickets are available.

"Pillsbury Throwboy" is one of my favorite nicknames ever and kicks the shit out of "Hefty Lefty".

[PilotMan]

Yeah that would be great! How many Cincy guys do we have anyway?

I was thinking about going to a game.

[Lathum]

We gotta have at least 10 or so.

Maybe if we all bring Little Debbie Snack Cakes we can meet him after.

I was just thinking that. I don't care how many different guys get that nickname, I never get tired of it.

Also, i was surprised to learn that there's NINE indoor U.S. football leagues. They're all small and disjointed, but they exist. It really wouldn't take too much money for FOFC to buy, or pay the "expansion fee" for a regional arena league team. We could name it the Trout.

Where are they playing their games?

[BillJasper]

Where are they playing their games?

Bank of Kentucky Center on the Northern Kentucky University campus.

[PilotMan]

Looks like they are playing at the Bank of Kentucky Center at NKU.

damn

[Comey]

He said on SVP that the largest he's ever weighed in at is 348. I believe he said that's "on the record".

I remember the old NES hockey game, and how they had that big round guy that people would bounce off of. I imagine, if they made a football game, this is what that would look like.

[RomaGoth]

The thread title confused me, I thought it was related to Lorenzo Lamas or Lorenzo Neal....

[albionmoonlight]

I've always been partial to "Round Mound of Touchdown"

[PilotMan]

Home games for Lorenzen's River Monsters are

2/9
2/16
3/15
4/5
4/19

I don't think there will be a shortage of tickets anytime soon.

Yeah. Bank of Kentucky Center seats around 10,000 and I doubt the River Monsters will draw more than a couple thousand a game. I'd be up for the game in March if they haven't folded by then. :lol:

I'll have to see what my schedule ends up being in March. I should know by the 18th if I'll have that day off.

It would be interesting to see. The QB sneak would never be the same.

Ex-NFL QB Jared Lorenzen's lifelong battle with weight (http://espn.go.com/espn/feature/story/_/id/11382220/ex-nfl-qb-jared-lorenzen-lifelong-battle-weight)

[lighthousekeeper]

wow that was a good read.

[flere-imsaho]

Yeah, just wanted to say that was an excellent read. You have to wonder how good he could have been had he been able to keep the weight off.
