claudio1 What a joke lol -
kellex When is Tatum going to realize he'll never be a premier back? -
SpottieOttieDopaliscious On the other hand, Bell could probably find work as a Northwest Bag handler. They steal bags all the time and don't get caught. -
AEM I think it is hilarious myself. What he thought "no bags, no clothes, no job" for Johnson?
He might just have to go hang out with the two NBA rookies and smoke some of what they had to find better ideas next time.

FanIQ Blog —
... up out of the blue and asked her to keep the bags for a while.
Bell was quickly identified by surveillance footage, confronted about the missing bags, and gave some lame ass excuse about how Johnson's bags were stolen. Either PFT is pulling a fast one on it's readers, or Bell just became the starting running back on the NFL's All-Blockhead team.
Now it's easy to see why Bell has had trouble winning over the coaching staffs in Denver and Detroit.
