Obligatory Merriman = HULK Joke

Shawne Merriman, linebacker for the San Diego Chargers, is facing a 4 game suspension for using steroids. Merriman has been regarded as one of the young, premiere defenders in the league as he won Rookie of the Years honors last season.

We, at Brothers in 3-Z, got a chance to talk to Merriman to get his reaction:

B3Z: So Shawne, I will get to the point. You like-a the juice?
Merriman: Grrrrrrr. (grumble) Not. Knowing. GRRRRAAAAAAAAHHHH!
B3Z: I'll take that as a "yes." We have to ask, why do this?
Merriman: After Foley shot in leg... grrrrrrrr Hulk need strength. AAAARRRGGGGGHHH! Be hero. (grumble) Ook. AAAAAAAAAHHHHHRRGGGH!
B3Z: Were you trying to be a hero for the team, or to Foley?
Merriman: (grumbles) Both. Me angry. AAARRRRGGGHH! grrrrrrrrr.
B3Z: Of course you are angry. Please tell us, from a football stand point - you have been so integral in the San Diego defense; your presence alone serves as a anchor and solidifying force on in the D - what ramifications, if any, will this have on the other members of this team?
Merriman: Ook.

There you have it.
