Brodie Croyle Is an Outstanding Redneck
By Chris Mottram | August 14, 2007
I realize I’m a little behind the curve on HBO’s Hard Knocks special, but I just watched it today. For those who don’t know, it’s a documentary-style look at the Chiefs training camp and it’s completely awesome.
The hits come early and often, like when Brodie is packing for camp and his smokin’ hot wife (pictured) of two weeks, Kelli, asks Brodie, “You got your huntin’ DVDs?” Christ woman, of course he did. That’s his porn. Shortly thereafter, Brodie discusses returning to camp:
“Camp should be a breeze after going through all the marriage stuff. Stressful time for the women folk.”
Women folk. Wow. By this point I’m already rooting for Brodie, and then we meet Boomer Grigsby, who is trying to convert from back-up linebacker to fullback. He’s apparently best-good friends with Jared Allen, who will miss the first two games after collecting two DUIs. They share an exchange at a local watering hole over some non-alcoholic brews:
Boomer: “O’Doul’s is delicious. It’s tasty and delicious.”
Allen: “It’s the beer drinker’s beer when you can’t drink beer.”
Good to see Boomer is supporting his buddy by drinking O’Doul’s with him. My best friend could be recovering from raging alcoholism and I’d still be chugging Guinness and Jager shots anytime we went out together. I’m sensitive like that.
All this goodness is trumped by Bernard Pollard, who does what can only be explained as some sort of pop, lock ‘n’ drop itmove in the locker room. It clearly shows why I stick to the crip walk in any dance-off.
Other video clips from the show: Kyle Turley explains going insane on the field in ‘01 and Gunther Cunningham threatens to strangle one of his rookie linemen.
