Deion Sanders Scores Touchdown For Stoners Everywhere, Masterfully Sneaks In Weed Reference During Football Highlight

In what can only be described as a victory for weed enthusiasts everywhere, Hall of Fame cornerback and NFL Network analyst Deion Sanders subtly and craftily worked in a marijuana reference while describing Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back LeGarrette Blount.

The 44-year-old Sanders, who has more than likely been stashing this one away for some time, saw his opening during Sunday’s Bucs-Packers highlight. Earlier in the day, Blount, whose name sounds like “blunt,” had broken a series of tackles on his way to a second quarter touchdown run. So Sanders decided to go for the gold.

“You’re gonna need Snoop at safety to hit that…” said an excited Sanders, who then proceeded to let his under-the-radar weed reference waft through the air. As the meaning of his words (which were an allusion to popular rapper and noted weed enthusiast Snoop Dogg) sunk in with his fellow analysts, a slow, cascading series of giggles began to permeate the studio. And Prime Time was pleased.
