Sabitelli was a huge bust in the NFL though, right?

Ehhh he was a 2nd round pick that never really lived up to expectations, but it's hard to say how much of it was being a bust and how much was because of injuries.

DADDY MAGIC

quote:

There's one player who will always be the worst Buccaneer I've ever seen play. The very worst one. The player who will forever be engraved in my memory as the worst football player I've ever seen start a game: Sabby Piscitelli.

I am not exaggerating here. Piscitelli was horrifying. He tried to play safety, but looked more like a safety valve for the offense. He couldn't cover anyone. His angles to tackles were atrocious. He routinely whiffed on tackles even when his angle was good. He caused more blown coverages than anyone I can remember. According to Football Outsiders, he led the NFL in missed tackles in 2009. The entire NFL. And not by any small margin, either: he had 24 missed tackles. No one else even had 20.

Watching Sabby play wasn't just like watching a trainwreck in progress: it was like watching a trainwreck with the absolutely certainty that trainwrecks were to keep occurring play after play, week after week, month after month until Raheem Morris finally accepted that trainwrecks are no way to stop someone from scoring.

If this happens, I hope it's because they've brought in Tommy End as a member of the group instead of giving the NXT title to Eric Young, who made Sanity a million times less intimidating by having a Canadian flag patch.

I'm enjoying the way NXT is(/was) building things no-one cares about like Dan Matha's debut and Blake vs. Murphy, then having Joe just wreck them. I felt a bit bad for Blake and Murphy because it seemed like they were given just enough time to have the crowd start to care about their match before Joe showed up.

Has Itami/Ibushi's first round match been taped yet btw?

He made a roster for a while, which is more than former WWE champion Roman Reigns can say

Tommy End's gimmick should just be staring holes in people and then kicking them in the head, not whatever post-apocalyptic cosplayer bullshit they're doing with Sanity.

I don't recall seeing the Itami/Ibushi team in the reports from the last NXT taping. I imagine that teamup would have been all over social media as soon as it happened if they taped a match prior to announcing the team.

I'll give it a chance because NXT could always use more stables, but first impression was less than stellar.
