The Randy factor

Posted at 12:44 PM on January 16, 2008 by Bob Collins (0 Comments)

Perhaps it was only matter of time, but Randy Moss today became a distraction to the almost-Super-Bowl-bound New England Patriots.

The Boston Globe has Moss's reaction this afternoon to a Florida radio station report that a woman "filed for an order of protection against Moss, alleging he committed battery against her. The report said a temporary injunction was issued, barring Moss from coming within 500 feet of the woman and from using or possessing firearms." (Video available here)

It's the reaction by Moss that will likely raise eyebrows among the formerly faithful in Minnesota.

"I want to make something clear: In my whole entire life of living 30 years, I've never put my hand on one woman, physically or in an angry manner."

Technically true. He used a car before.
