Adrian Peterson was questionable going into today’s game, much to the dismay of fantasy football owners nationwide, after the Vikings reported their running back was suffering from a mysterious illness after the team’s chartered flight. Turns out Peterson swallowed a lip during a turbulent ride to Detroit.

I did this before back in high school and was pretty much useless for the next forty-eight hours. Forget stomach viruses or mono, accidentally ingesting long cut straight is a sickness and pain I would wish on no man. Peterson not only being on the field, but currently closing in on a 100 yard game is madness. We’re talking Jordan flu game type of performance. A true warrior of the gridiron.

    The one time I’ve accidentally swallowed dip I miraculously didn’t ralph. It was a human accomplishment on the same level as the moon landing and the four minute mile. I’m not saying you all should care, but I was pretty proud of myself.

      AP stated that it was due to shrimp on the flight. But we all know he’s just trying to make himself look like less of a dumbass

    Think I’ll make dip dogs for the pledges tonight! Should I use Copenhagen long cut or Original?

    I like Petersons response to the “injury”. He says that it wasn’t becuase of the chew becuase he has been doing it so long that it doesn’t even phase him to swallow all of it. My new favorite player.
