12.03.08 THE FIRST INTERVIEW SINCE THE SHOOTING
Unlike Plaxico Burress, some NFL players get really shot, and not as a result of their own stupidity. Richard Collier barely survived a murder attempt in September that led the the amputation of a leg and paralysis below the waist, and the Orlando Sentinel landed the first interview with Collier, who says he “remembers everything” about the shooting.
“When I got in the ambulance, I remember they were counting bullets,” Collier said. “I was like man, that’s a lot.” Collier was shot 14 times.
Hell yes that’s a lot. That’s a lot for 50 Cent.
“I realized now how much strength I really have, how much patience I have. I’ve realized there’s so much more to me than playing football.”
Anyone who gets their life turned into shit by some asshole and still comes out of it with a positive attitude gets a tip of the cap from me. I mean, if some mom accidentally bumps her stroller into me it ruins my day. I’m really in no position to talk about losing a leg and being paralyzed.

THE FIRST INTERVIEW SINCE THE SHOOTING
Yeah, this guy’s a much better human being than I am. I was just complaining because my foot is still a little sore from the walking-around-at-Disneyland I did a few days ago.

//looks closer, sees zit
You still punch that cunt, right?
Keep it clean Burnsy.
“I mean, if some mom accidentally bumps her stroller into me it ruins my day.”
When the hooker has the audacity to run from you screaming that must ruin your whole week!
/unless you paid for that
You’re still allowed at Disneyland WDYA? I was kicked out for an overzealous attempt to give the haunted mansion ‘authenticity’
Oh and props to RC, and Wayman Tisdale for that matter.
If only he had a gun…
If you liken Richard to a tougher 50 Cent, does that make Plaxico a blacker Cheddar Bob?
I guess all his shootin’s be drive-bys now.
/blatantly jacking rhymes from MC Hawking.
I’ll take “Dick Collars” for $200.
Seriously, though, fuck those moms and those strollers. Right in the achilles!
Collier to Taylor: “Anything you can do, I can do better!”
