From ABC comes a scary story out of Florida. Three NFL players are on a fishing boat that is missing off the Gulf Coast in Clearwater.
One reportedly plays for the Lions, and another plays for the Raiders.
A 21-foot boat with four passengers left from Clearwater Pass at 6:30 a.m. EST on Saturday. It was due to return after dark but never arrived.
A friend called the Coast Guard at 1:30 a.m. EST on Sunday and reported the boat missing.
Per the report, officials say that the Gulf waters are extremely choppy and that itâs believed the boat is in distress.

The Tampa Tribune has the names of two of the NFL players who have been reported missing on a boat off the coast of Clearwater, Florida.
They are linebacker Marquis Cooper of the Raiders and defensive end Corey Smith of the Lions.
A third person, identified as Nick Skyler, also is on the boat. We can find no evidence on the Internet (including NFL.com’s current and former player search tool) that he is or has been on an NFL roster.
A fourth person, possibly another NFL player, is believed to be on the boat.
The Coast Guard is searching a 750-square mile area for the 21-foot fishing boat.

I put 8.2 in swimming lessons last year. The only thing kids have a problem with is getting their heads wet/going under water. Other than that, dude was a swimmer. Took about 2 hours and he was diving under water for everything.

Think about all the sweet hotels these players stay in during the season and not once they decided hey to kill some time I'm going to the pool to swim.
