Vince Talking Trash?

by Horange on Nov 30, 2005 11:52 AM CST

I've heard a lot of disturbing comments about how much smack talking Vince Young has been doing; does anybody know if there is any truth to any of this?
I heard that he said something to the effect of all Aggies being drunks and what not.
Whether or not this is true is irrelevant, I prefer Vince to just keep it classy. Anyone have any conclusive evidence? Anyway, I won't believe it until it's proven.

I have circumstantial evidence

To the contrary, I've heard the opposite. And with my own eyes, it seems to be true. Watch him after he takes a hard tackle. He gets up and wacks the opponent on the ass. He looks to me like he's got a great competitive, but good spirted, attitude.

This is the first I've heard of Vince being negative.

Seriously doubt it

He went to Cortney Lewis' b-day party and is a really close friend of Reggie McNeil. I doubt he would say that about all Aggies. Maybe fans, but I don't know about that either.

about the fans

From what I heard he was talking about the fans. Still, it does contradict everything he has done on the field; he congratulates the other team as much as he does ours.

I was just wondering if anyone had heard a reputable sound byte or quote.

He said...

that the aTm fans look like a "bunch of drunks" during an interview with Fox Sports Southwest. The interview was one segment of an hour long special on the UT-aTm game that aired on Thanksgiving day. I'm not sure if the interview was edited in such a way that it was taken out of context, but Vince did, I am sure of it, use the phrase "bunch of drunks". It surprised me when I heard him say that.

The whole team blew the Aggies off, not just him, and this attitude clearly affected them during the first half.

Vince

My guess is this is in regards to the swaying back and forth done during the game and not really negitive comment, but more of a colloquialism.

Let's not kid ourselves

We all know Vince is a good guy and a classy athlete on the field. But Vince is a hard core competitor, he's young and he's a bad ass and he plays football. If you don't think he talks some shit then you probably think he went to UT just to get his degree. All of these guys run their mouths, some are just smart enough to not do it in front of cameras or in ear-shot of the wrong people.
