Revis Island: Beware of Stiffs

WEEI reported the following earlier today:

"Revis, who played his first game back Monday night after missing all of training camp in a contract dispute, was limited on Thursday in practice by hamstring tightness and his availability for Sunday is unknown."

I am just going to say it now:

If Darrelle Revis does not play this Sunday, he is automatically the stiff of the YEAR.

As long as he is alive and his thigh bone isn't sticking through his skin, he better being playing.

It seems way too much like an excuse for when he gets burned by Randy Moss because he isn't in football condition or is hurt.

After all his trash talk, contract hold out and hype about "Revis Island" how lame is it to lean on the excuse of hamstring tightness.

Either sit out until you are ready to play at NFL speed, admit you are scared of Moss or don't hold out in the first place.

Revis should have been running parachute assisted wind sprints 24-7 or at least sit ups in his driveway (the T.O. workout) while waiting for his contract. What was he doing all day, eating Twinkies and playing Madden '11?

But in all fairness... injury, out of shape or whatever, as long as Moss burns him for at least a couple touchdowns and the Patriots beat the Jets, I will be very happy.
