Chris Long To EA: “I Don’t Have A Gut.”

May 08, 2008


We sat down with former Virginia defensive end, Chris Long, a few days before the NFL Draft at EA’s event in NYC. He didn’t notch any of the covers of NCAA 09 and he had a few minor issues with his virtual representation on the field. Specifically he seemed a little confused over his in-game gut. Getting picked second in the draft by the St. Louis Rams should help deal with any indignity suffered at the hands of EA.

May 07, 2008


We interviewed Jake Long at EA’s Draft Weekend event, just days before the Dolphins (officially) made the former Michigan offensive lineman the number one pick in the draft and the wealthiest kid to come out of Lapeer East High School. We talked with Long about video games, appearing in NCAA 09 and what he’s going to buy with his $57.75 million dollar contract…ah, fuck it. Writing down that kind of figure makes writing anything else seem insignificant.
