So as much as I disliked him as a player for us he is actually really funny and cool on his local radio show here in Columbus. Today the contest was who has the best movie idea about a sports figure.

I called in and told him my idea which was a movie about Jerruh's life called "Crude Beginnings" and it would star Billy Bob Thorton because I imagine his character in Bad Santa was exactly like what Jerry's life is like everyday lol. Bobby got a kick out of it and chose me as the winner. He said he had the pleasure to see Jerry "in action" a few times and could definitely see Thorton portraying him well when he's hitting the blue label haha.

Crappy prize but whatever I thought it was cool he picked my idea. Just thought I would share since many of us here hated him when he played for us but he really is a cool dude.

Edit: mods only posted here bc the movie idea was about Jerry move this if you feel necessary.

Ha! Cool story... and uhm, if you don't want that oil change, I'll take it if it's from a national chain. My car needs one badly.

Is it a weak side or strong side oil change, or will they change it to the middle....don't let them get confused on the oil position change......may mess up the functionality of the engine and how it runs....
Make sure the mechanics (coaches) get it right....

Can't wait for the scene where a sauced up Jerruh pees in the parking lot then decides to blow a first round pick on Bobby Carpenter.

It's always something isn't it? People think they "own" a car, but in reality a car owns you.

Car note, insurance, gas,routine maintenance, not so routine maintenance, inspections, tag renewals, image, car washes, etc.....

Actually that was all on Parcells. But I'm sure there will be a lot of "producer / director" liberties....:laugh:

Jerruh was so liquored up that he was trying to eat cheeze whiz out of a stripper's cleavage while old Hank Williams records were playing so Parcells went crazy during the draft and picked whomever he pleased.

Funny story from the OP that had me laughing from the get-go. I've gotta admit, his impression of Jerry pretty much matches mine. I can easily picture him saying and doing quite a few things after consuming numerous servings of Blue Label that Billy Bob Thornton might love to portray.

A free oil change is a great prize, because the less you have to spend on your car is always a blessing.

This goes down as Carpenters biggest contribution to the Cowboys. A free oil change for a fan that the service shop paid for.

My firm's auto advertising division moves about 3,000 vehicles a month - word of advice, don't buy a car without doing your research - ESPECIALLY when they say they have a big sale going on lol.
