DeAngelo Williams of the Carolina Panthers was none too pleased when he picked up the gameday program for the home field Washington Redskins, and he has a valid point. Williams got a little extra motivation from the fact that the Washington Redskins listed the Panthers game as their "homecoming game." Traditionally, colleges and high schools schedule an easy opponent for homecomings, so their alumni and fans can enjoy a win. Williams took the message as a slight toward the Panthers and channeled his anger into helping the Panthers end their five-game losing streak with a 21-13 win.
"It pissed me off, I picked up the Gameday (program), and I'm looking at the Gameday, and it says 'homecoming,' and I'm thinking to myself, this is the National Football League. Are you serious? Homecoming? Homecoming, and it's not like you tried to hide it. You blatantly put it on the front of the Gameday, and you talk about somebody getting fired up today. I was pissed. That was definitely motivating. You don't say you're going to have a homecoming in the National Football League."
The rant was acceptable, but someone should notify DeAngelo that his Panthers are just 2-6 this year. More From Cosby SweatersHigh School Football Game Features An Intercepted SNAP?Greg Jennings Seems Happy, Even Post SurgeryCheck Out The Redskins Throwbacks
