NYT: In Name of Fashion, Embracing a Trend

In Name of Fashion, Embracing a Trend

Giants linebacker Danny Clark recently saw a basketball player use his wristband to - get this - wipe sweat.

"I've got all sorts of biceps and triceps busting out of there. It's a good look," said Giants linebacker Danny Clark.

"I said, 'That's what those are for?' " Clark said. "I had forgotten that."

Clark wears wristbands, too. But he does not wear them to wipe sweat, and he does not wear them on his wrists. Like a growing number of fashion-conscious N.F.L. and college football players - and countless kids who emulate them - Clark wears his wristbands well above his elbows.

"I've got all sorts of biceps and triceps busting out of there," Clark said. "It's a good look."

cont'd...

Yo homey... I hear you been talkin' some sh*t 'bout me sayin' you got some pics of me in the tank.

Eh?

Well I'll be damned. If it isn't ol' Hisname Johnson from Milledgeville! The pics were of you and that tranny prostitute you took home that night. We were all trying to talk you out of it, remember? And you were just screamin' "I DON'T CARE, GO DAWGS!".

You still workin' at the Waffle House by I-75?
