He actually sounds pretty decent. Not that it's my style.

But it's cool to see that his band is actually going somewhere it seems.

Is he ready to play RT now?

No, at the weight he's at now he might be ready for WR.

Feel the need to do a plug for him.

The Kyle Turley Band will be playing at Knuckleheads in KC on 11/19/11.

I know I'll be going.

I'm impressed. I'd go see him. You would think he would sing more angry type music. But I like it.

At first glance, I expected a pile of shit. Really though...not horrible. Definitely not my type of music, but I'd rather listen to that than Nickelback or pretty much any other modern day "rock" band.

[Dr. Johnny Fever]

In his heyday Turley was a badass on the football field, now he's a badass on stage. Much respect to Turley... living the life.

Not a good singer but rockin his thing anyway.

[BoneKrusher]

Pretty Darn Good.

Good for him.

Ive always appreciated that he never was afraid to speak his mind. Refreshing.



Already an outspoken critic of the amount of disability payments retired players receive and who is a board member of the Gridiron Greats Assistance Fund, Turley was asked for his take on the new NFL collective bargaining agreement that includes $1 billion in new benefits to ex-players.

"In a word, I think it's horse [expletive]," Turley said. "… It's horse [expletive] but no surprise. The union has failed to negotiate for the players of the National Football League, period. Because the majority of players that run through the National Football League enjoy only a three-to-four-year career. If you don't reach that fourth year, then you don't get your benefits."

For the record, Turley isn't the only former player unhappy, as a group of ex-NFL players filed a lawsuit against the NFLPA in September over the new CBA.

Turley has had a long-standing feud with former Minnesota Vikings RB Robert Smith, a member of the panel that decides NFL disability claims. It looks like reconciliation between the two is still a long way off.

"The last thing I have is patience to sit down and try to talk to guys like Robert Smith, the disability assistant to the National Football League, [who] levy down a verdict on whether or not you receive your disability or not. Last time I checked, he wasn't a doctor."




He doesn't even pull punches with Saints quarterback Drew Brees(notes), a member of the committee who will be forever beloved in New Orleans for winning a Super Bowl two seasons ago and for his extensive community service in the area. While Turley said he has immense respect for Brees, Turley's still steaming over comments Brees made in 2009 that some former players don't have money because of bad decisions they made and were asking current players to make up for those mistakes.

"For a guy like Drew Brees to say the things he said about former players is completely preposterous, to say a cliché word," Turley said. "It's downright ridiculous for him, a guy who should know better being that he's lucky he's not sitting on the couch watching football after the shoulder injury he received in San Diego and would have been in the same boat as a lot of these guys out here dealing with these injury situations."
