Sports Caller Sounding Like Randy Moss Slams Fisher: There's speculation in Nashville that wide receiver Randy Moss called a former Tennessee Titans player's radio show Wednesday and criticized head coach Jeff Fisher under a fake name. "I don't like Fisher," said a caller identified as Woody, who hoped for Fisher to be fired.
Definitely sounds like him.

I call irresponsible journalism. These guys seem interested in becoming part of the story.

Clay Travis is part of the story. It was his radio show that "Woody" called.

Randy might want to get out before the NFL does it for him. Doesn't seem like he can get along with any team and basically mails it in on the field at times when he doesn't like somebody--which is mostly everybody in the NFL.

You guys should hear my Randy Moss imitation. I sound exactly like him, especially over the phone.
Come to think of it, you may already have heard me!

People got some serious idle time on their hands.

Randy Moss. A self absorbed person who had his ego artificially inflated since junior high by having one selfish coach after another tell him how great he was and how much better and smarter he was than anyone else, just to get him to perform a little better. And then the growing entourage of family and friends and hangers on repeating the same thing over and over.
No wonder Randy is the arrogant, egotistical fatal team cancer that he is. He just can't help it if he knows more than the head coach, the owner, the QB, and all the other players on the team. Like TO, i think that Randy has seen his last season in the NFL. And like TO, his legacy will be one of a rare talent that was wasted.

Wow. Were you there?
I mean, I'm not saying it's not possible, but I'm continually floored by fans (or haters) who claim to have all this insight into the personal history, motivations, etc. of professional athletes. If you were his brother or his coach or something, I'd be inclined to think there was probably a factual basis for your fairly detailed assertions about the Randy Moss Ego-Inflation Program...but as it is, I have to wonder if you aren't perhaps embroidering just a wee bit.

Wouldn't surprise me. Hopefully Fisher stays around and the next game or two will be the last we see of Randy Moss.
