Ok, this made me smile. I live near the Bears training camp, and they all brought Rock Band to the dorms they were staying at...I just find it funny, picturing NFL players playing it.
Ex. Rex Grossman on drums..."QUIT MISSING NOTES REX!"

I'm sure Grossman sucks at Rock Band as much as he sucks at being a NFL QB.

Because he's just as good as Danny Wuerffel in the NFL

He doesn't THAT bad, but the joke just presented itself.

I was reading an issue of ESPN the Magazine a month or two back and they were talking to someone on (I think it was) the St. Louis Cardinals. The person interviewing him said that they know he and his teammates love video games and they asked if they played Guitar Hero. He said something to the effect of, "We play Rock Band around here!" That made ME smile.
So MLB players love RB too!

The way you wrote that makes it seem like GH is a little girl's game.
ARRRRRRRRRRGH, real men play ROCK BAND! Right after they're back from the UFC Hunting BARBEQUE FOOTBALL GAME!

Again, I don't dislike Grossman, he may be my favorite player, but I just couldn't resist that joke.
Picture the band "Da Bears"
Rex (Drums), Urlacher (Guitar), Gould (Bass), Benson (Formerly Vocals)
"Rex! Quit missing notes!"
"Urlacher with the solo! It's a perfect! He brings the score up!"
"Gould using his Bass overdrive wisely, saving the Bears!"
"Benson can't remember the words. He is also being unreliable by using his overdrive during the WGFA's keyboard solo."

because he's not very good...? seriously, as bad as T-Jack has been, I'd probably rather have him at QB than the Sex Cannon

what makes him so bad? his interceptions? that overrated jackass favre threw tons of interceptions and f***ed up all the time, yet many think he is great
i personally think Rex could be an elite QB if he could keep his mind straight when he loses the football

Grossman loses his composure too much. If he could keep his cool out there and not focus on how he's screwed up, he can do well. Until that day comes, the bears need someone reliable to back him up.
Go Bears!

I'm not a Favre fan either, but let's look at the numbers: Favre had 442 TDs to 288 INTs, a ratio of 1.535, Sex Cannon has 35 TDs to 37 INTs, a ratio of 0.946 -- so, yeah, Favre threw a lot of picks, but he was also better at throwing TDs
I hated it when people said Grossman led the Bears to the Super Bowl -- no, he went along for the ride, but it was a stone defense, a solid running game, and something called Devon Hester that led the Bears to the Super Bowl
Rexie certainly lost the Super Bowl for them, so he's got that going for him

Devon? Who's that :P.
And I blame Benson for the Super Bowl. Mainly cause I don't like him. But he got injured, so **** him.

Maybe now we will get some DLC requests for "The Super Bowl Shuffle". lol
That would be classic seeing McMahon and the Fridge playing RB.
and yeah, Rex "F**k it, I'm going deep" Grossman is aweful.

And you can add that they had to play the Colts. C'mon, no NFL team was going to stop Manning that year.

I am a huge fan of the NFL (Carolina) and I must admit that Grossman isn't as bad as everyone says he is.
But I don't know why he is called the sex cannon. Anyone care to explain?

A reporter for ABC 7(i think... maybe NBC5 or CBS2) out here in chicago said something about the bears playing rock band but instead of band she said star... yes there is totally a game called rock star with drums

it's a nickname that sports blog Kissing Suzy Kolber gave to him, not entirely sure how it originated -- probably an evolution of Sexy Rexy, Rexstasy, etc
