Brandon Marshall: Newest ‘Victim’ Of A Fan Not Really Selling An Athlete On Craig’s List

By Will Brinson

People sell tons of stuff on Craig’s List. Including athletes. Only they’re usually fake, obvs, because people can’t sell other people on Craig’s List. It’s like a violation of the terms of service or something. But some prankster-gangster type of fella is rejecting society’s mores and making it happen anyway, putting Brandon Marshall on the block.

The poor fella. He’s so “cantankerous.”

One slightly used, partially dinged up, occasionally unreliable, extremely agitated, currently insubordinate Brandon Marshall receiver! I really don’t want to sell my Brandon Marshall as there were some good times with Brandon Marshall, but for the posterity of the entire fleet, it is time to part ways with Brandon Marshall. I purchased this Brandon Marshall in 2006, and it was really a good “bang for your buck” situation at the time. This is your chance to get in on this Brandon Marshall before it is too late and on the free market. Trust me, I could easily sell Brandon Marshall at a police auction.

And so on and so on the listing goes. It’s awesome. It’s funny. It’s standard Craig’s List humor. But most importantly, it’s a perfect anecdotal-type example of what’s going on with the Denver Broncos and Brandon Marshall right now.In case it’s not clear-cut and obvious right now, the Broncos screwed up badly when they brought on Josh McDaniels. Mainly because he somehow managed to alienate the team’s two stars, one of whom (Jay Cutler) is now playing for yoooooooooooo-uuuuur Chicago Bears and the other of whom (Marshall) is on his way out of town because neither can get along with the coach and because he showed Marshall that he could do whatever he wanted and whine and pout and whatever and then he could get out of town.

So now he might be headed to New York, where he’s only sure to find more trouble. So that’s a bit of a nightmare, not to mention the disaster that Broncos’ fans have to deal with now that they’ll get 50 cents on the dollar back for him. But, hey, on the bright side, at least he’ll have a lot more potential buyers in the Big Apple.
