Randy Moss, who is expected to be waived by the Minnesota Vikings on Tuesday, may have alienated some teammates when he roundly criticized a post-practice meal in front of the local restaurant owners who catered it, Yahoo! Sports reported.

Randy Moss = 0 Super Bowls
T. Owens = 0 Super Bowls
Ochocinco = 0 Super Bowls
And some people doubt God’s existence.
PS — I am right about TO, yes?
Wide receivers are the biggest divas around.
Randy Moss is a carbuncle on the butt of any team he plays for.
On the bright side, I FINALLY saw him get flagged for pushing off in the Green Bay game. I thought He** had frozen over.
The best receiver in the league is Andre Johnson and he is a humble guy. He gets very little attention from the media.
“Wide receivers are the biggest divas around.”
Why is that? I thought similar, the weirdest and craziest acting football players always seem to be wide receivers.
As much as I despise TO for him to have played in that SB and do what he did after returning from a broken leg was amazing. The Pats beat the snot out of McNabb that game which pretty much made all the difference in the world.
Not to be a wise guy, but, just for example, Hitler did amazing things, too. Still a POS.
I’m still partial to my boys Colston and Moore....

Tinucci’s Restaurant and Catering, which operates out of Newport and Woodbury and has been in business since 1958, hosted a buffet for Vikings players Friday afternoon.
“We had the whole buffet set up, and we had a nice spread — chicken, ribs, round of beef with a carving station, the whole deal,” Tinucci’s co-owner Gus Tinucci said today. “(Moss) he comes in, and I’m helping one of the guys and didn’t look up, and all of a sudden I heard, ‘What the (expletive) is this? I wouldn’t feed this (expletive expletive) to my (expletive) dog!’ And he’s screaming it at the top of his lungs.
“He never even came through the line. He walked up towards it, looked at it, made the big stink and walked away. He didn’t eat.”
Tinucci said the locker room, filled with players, got quiet.
“Nobody said anything except for one (player) who said, ‘Shut the (expletive) up, Randy,’ “ he said.
“If (Brett) Favre would have had a ball, he would have beaned him right in the head. Favre looked at him like, ‘Are you kidding me?’ “
Tinucci said nobody on coach Brad Childress’ staff was there. Tinucci said one Vikings locker room attendant in charge of the luncheon apologized to him.
“He said, ‘Don’t worry about it, Gus, he’s an (expletive). He’s done this every time we’ve had food.’
Pretty sure TO was with the 49ers last time they went.
I see some things never change.. Moss is one of them!
So is the best all time receiver, Jerry Rice. Too bad TO didn’t learn anything from him off the field.
It appears Moss was doing everything he could think of to force Childress to release him. Childress should have benched him for a couple games and then announced his availability for trade. There’d be nothing Moss would hate worse than being benched and forced to watch the game with the TV cameras occasionally focusing on his face.

Not all of them. This guy has twice as many SB rings as Moss, Owens and OchoBozo combined. He plays hard every play, and does not bitch and moan.
And then this guy has 3 times as many SB rings as Moss, Owens and OchoBozo combined. He just catches passes and drives linebackers and safeties nuts trying to cover him. He plays hard every play and never bitches and moans either.
They are the kind of players that make football fun to watch, not the drama queens who get all the underserved publicity.
Apparently they didn’t recognize how imPOtent Moss IS!!! John Stallworth won 4 Super Bowls and went to the Hall of Fame, yet never said a word out of line or caused a problem. Moss never won a THING, yet acts like people should kiss his non-existent RING!!!
I live about 2 blocks away from Tinucci’s in Newport, my girlfriend is related to the owners and her best friend is the owner’s niece. It isn’t pate and caviar, but it is local flavor and a great family owned and family ran business. It is a true taste of St Paul’s East Side. I wouldn’t even serve the left overs to my dog, its too good!
