Almost two months ago, I wrote a post detailing how the Oakland Raiders dissed LaMont Jordan by telling him “don’t show up for work”. For the last sixty days the Raiders have been trying to trade LaMont, but nobody would accept a deal (the Raiders had no leverage). Oakland grudgingly released Jordan from his contract a few days ago and received no compensation.

Being the snazzy little fuckers they are, the New England Patriots signed LaMont to a contract on Sunday afternoon. He’ll provide a nice little one-two punch with Lawrence Maroney next season. Don’t get me wrong, I hate the Patriots but I do acknowledge that they have a very good team (it’s the least I can do).

LaMont has to be thrilled he went from the most dysfunctional franchise in the NFL to one of the most successful.
