The Man Mountain - The Orange Mane

Yeah yeah another Adams thread **** you all.

The "Man Mountain" I like it.

Sam Aaron Adams (born June 13, 1973 in Houston, Texas) is an American football defensive tackle for the Denver Broncos of the National Football League.
[edit]NFL career

Adams played collegiately at Texas A&M and was selected in the 1st round (8th overall) by the Seattle Seahawks in the 1994 NFL Draft. He made several starts during his rookie year, splitting time between defensive tackle and defensive end. In his second season, he sacked Mark Brunell of the Jacksonville Jaguars for a safety, scoring his first points of his professional career. He also blocked a field goal in overtime against the Arizona Cardinals. He played several more years for Seattle, making the AFC Pro Bowl team as an alternate in 1997. In 2000 he signed as a free agent with the Baltimore Ravens, and helped lead the most dominating defense in the league to a victory at Super Bowl XXXV.

That season he was also named as a starter to the Pro Bowl for the first time, a feat he would repeat the following season.

In 2002 he was a free agent once again, and this time he signed with the Oakland Raiders. He started 14 of the 16 games that season, missing one due to injury and played in the other game he did not start. He led his team to Super Bowl XXXVII; unfortunately, the result was not the same, as the Raiders lost to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

In 2003, Adams signed with the Buffalo Bills as a free agent and helped anchor the defensive line there. His first game for Buffalo was a memorable one, as he registered a sack, two tackles, and an interception against Tom Brady that was returned for a touchdown (his second career TD). He was a Pro Bowl alternate in 2003 for the second time in his career.

On March 1, 2006 Adams was released by the Bills because of salary cap issues.
On March 31, 2006 Adams signed a three year contract with the Cincinnati Bengals. Joining the Bengals has reunited Adams with Marvin Lewis, who was the defensive coordinator for the Ravens when Adams played for them and is now Cincinnati's head coach.

In what Lewis called "a very difficult decision", the Bengals released Adams on May 14, 2007. "But the timing is such that it provides Sam the opportunity to obtain a roster spot with another team". [1]

That other team would end up being the Denver Broncos, whom Adams officially signed with on June 4, 2007.
[edit]Personal Info

Adams is married with a son, Terin and daughter, Tea Alexis.
Adams is also the owner of the Everett Hawks of the arenafootball2 (af2), and he also owns an af2 team in Cincinnati, Ohio called the Cincinnati Jungle Kats to begin play in 2007.
Adams is nicknamed "The Man Mountain".

He has a daughter named "Tea"?

I wonder if they thought about "Sweet Tea" Adams?

Sweet tea goes great with Texas BBQ.

I bet you'd like a man mountain.

this signing is awesome!!

I really hope this shores up our defense against the run, and hopefully he can give us a good 30 plays a game.

30 is probably a bit much to expect. 20 - 25 1st & 2nd down situations will do nicely. He will fit into the rotation just fine.

I know you repubicans are all homophobic but you think we could stay above the 6th grade humor.

I think it's more likely that you are just trying to cover up your own pent up homosexual feelings. Don't be scared we'll still hate you just the same. I promise.

Kyla's lovvvvahhh spewing the richeous venom tonight.

I am geeked up to get the guy for sure, but just hope he finds himself at home quickly rather than be an outsider with the team.

He looks more like a mole hill when he's in the same pix with Jonathan Ogden.

I'm very sensitive about my homosexuality.

That and I do find Adams strangely attractive.
