Oh, Channing Crowder. We’ve missed you, big guy.
With HBO’s Hard Knocks debuting on Wednesday night, the Dolphins linebacker talked about why the show will be must-see TV for him.
“I just want to see JT [Jason Taylor] and laugh at him,” Crowder said, via the Palm Beach Post. “I talked to
him the other night and I was making fun of him, so I just want to see
him out there embarrass himself.”
Crowder says the Taylor you see on camera is not the guy he knows.
“He’s a real pretty boy. He had makeup with Dancing with the Stars
and all that, so he might put on makeup,” Crowder said. “He’s gonna
perform. Trust me. You can mark that. JT is not going to be himself.
He’s gonna perform for the cameras, ’cause he’s a showman. That’s what I
give him a hard time about — he’s going to be as clean as he can, he’s
gonna have a freshly-shaved head, ’cause the camera is around and he’s
very womanly.”
And like every woman, Taylor needs makeup that doesn’t run when he plays football.
“What is it, Vidal Sassoon or something?” Crowder said.
“What’s the good stay-strong stuff you could wear? Loreal? He’ll have on
non-run Loreal.”
Crowder has some nice flowing locks, but he just can’t match the feminine qualities of his ex-teammate.
“JT’s
graceful. He’s a very graceful guy. I told him I’m gonna make fun of
him, so he knows it’s coming. But yeah, he is a very pretty, womanly
football player.”
