Whats up with these mouthy NFL mothers? First Vince Young's "momma" shoots her mouth off to the media and embarrasses her son and now this? These NFL players need to get their handlers to invest in mother muzzles.

AHhaha I don`t know but i hope it doesnt continue

Can these grown men not speak for themselves anymore?

He should start acting like a dunking Grandma.

You know, that's so funny! My mom says the same things about BoBo....I'm misunderstood and angry....very angry.....

I think Oprah needs to have a football mommy show. vy and lj can make a guest appearance at the end of it...and the big ending can be McNabbs mom bringing thiem all out a big bowl of soup.....i like it.

man he will do anythiong to get news tried rapping now mommie is talking for him just try and be a good running back how about that ????

perhaps he should do another rap song to let the world know how he feels. take if from vince young, you don't want your mom speaking about your career..

lol good idea 50yearfan.

Maybe they needed to do more soup commercials to keep them busy

What is this? A new way for the media to get something posted, interviewing Mothers of athletes? Great Idea - Start with the recently unable to find a team older former players mothers I am sure that will increase readership.

Larry's personality is different. He kind of checks things out first."

I had a beagle that was the same way, he needed to sniff other dog's butt before he would play with them, what a world huh?

When did they start making the moms spokespersons for these athletes..Its not going to change the way some people feel about them..When the moms speak,in my opinion, it makes things worse...aww, dont pick on my baby..sighs

Sorry Mrs. Johnson, your son is a fraud. He comes from a middle to upper-class family but he wants to be "street" so bad he invents this abrasive persona to try to come off as hard. Sorry Larry, I don't care how much you want to be down with Roc-A-Fella and how you idol Jay-Z, you're not street, never have been, never will be. More importantly, as a black man who grew up in the streets, why would you aspire to be that way? You're just another suburban knucklehead poser. Try not gettin hurt this season you whiner.

Concerning the Oprah cameo, you will have to nix that whole campbell soup thing. The following is a story that explains all.....

"Wilma McNabb and the other NFL moms are finished as corporate spokespeople, the Wall Street Journal reports. Campbell's Chunky Soup has launched a new distinctly mom-less advertising campaign after market research indicated that the 30-year-old men they???re targeting weren???t relying on their mothers??? food advice. Their new ad likens LaDanian Tomlinson to a working man, coming home to a hot bowl of soup. ???"LaDainian Tomlinson doesn't need his mom to tell him which products have protein and which products don't,??? said Chunky???s brand manager.

..........No wonder the mom's are sounding of about football. They are PO'd about their loss of advertising power because no one listen's to them!!

Mom's need to stay out of their son's professional business.

"Whats up with these mouthy NFL mothers?"
"Mom's need to stay out of their son's professional business."


His mom was contacted by the writer. She didn't call him ...

Can i just say one thing? If we've got guys who have been starting at their positions and have been fairly successful and we have their own mothers complaining about them, what does that say about the player. What kind of balony is that? Look at Aaron Rodgers for God's sake! You dont see momma talking to the press about how horrible she feels about all the negativity surrounding him and all the preasure. So Vince Young cant handle the pressure sometimes, welcome to life as an NFL starting QB. If anything, from what ive seen and heard, Mrs. Rodgers is very proud of her boy as well as many Packer fans after his perfomance on Monday Night. Stop whining and play football. These are grown men for crying out loud, what? are Mrs. Young and Mrs. Johnson going to start bringing sandwiches and juice boxes for after the games? Grow up.

Mom needs to say "call his press agent"
