Ben Longshaw - Media Day

[dropbear]

I just asked 95 questions across 9 press conferences in order to ask the 100 questions necessary to make that $10M bonus. I saved the last five for you Benjamin....


Number one. Did you give yourself your own "Brick Wall" nickname? Honestly though?


I'm just going to assume you did. Number two. Why "Brick Wall?"


Ok. So number three... you think you're the guy to beat on the offensive line in this league, right?


Alright. Four. What if I told you I just smashed my point tasks for the week JUST to beat you specifically?


Last question...


You're the best offensive lineman in the league. I'm the best defensive lineman in the league. Would you say it's smart to draft BOTH of us on the same team? Cause I think it would be and all shit talking aside, the only thing better than working to beat you ever chance I get on sunday would be working to beat you ever chance I get every practice.

:cigar:  :cheers:

1. It's a childhood nickname given to me by my father. You can read about it in my draft profile here.

2. See above.

3. Absolutely. I've said it time and time again, this league is a marathon not a sprint, and I don't care if there's a guy who's got his nose ahead of me here and there right now, a few months down the track and I'll be #1 in every stat that counts.

4. I'd wish you the best for the draft, and say that I don't worry myself with the talk of defenders or care about making a big name for myself or getting involved in smack talk. I'm here to keep guys off my quarterback and let him be the superstar.

5. I'm a team guy, through and through. If you're the best defensive lineman in this league - and it's not my place to make that call - then I'd be happy to have you eating QB's wearing the same jersey I am. And I'd save our battles for the training field, not TV, so that our flashy guys can get all the media attention.
