O/T: Andre Wadsworth is selling ice cream

[DeAnna]

part owner of Creamistry which plans on opening more locations in the Valley. At least he put to good use the money he stol...er, made with the Cardinals.

A creamologist is someone skilled in crafting the store’s signature liquid nitrogen ice cream. And there are plenty of employment opportunities with the California-based franchise. Creamistry co-founders Ryan Zeleznak and Andre Wadsworth plan to open more than 20 locations over the next five years, including three in the Valley. Wadsworth is a former Arizona Cardinal and co-founder of Impact Church in Scottsdale.

I don't hate on Wadseorth. Can't control injuries. Sometimes luck sucks.

 

[Jetstream Green]

Wadsworth had injury problems and they where injuries which one could not play through. I will never call him a bust and I wish him the best because his talent was never the question and he did want to play and gave his all

 

[football karma]

In the fwiw file -- he had an injury his second year that he played through that may have cost him his career--

IIRC- the dreaded micro fracture was done after year 3.

Wadworth is the executive pastor of a hugely successful church in Scottsdale called Impact that he started and funded. It is affiliated with a group of churches started by Darrell Green. The guy is changing people's lives.

 

[Reign Blood]

Still getting paid.

Big difference between Wadsworth and Wendell Bryant. Injuries derailed Wadsworth's career whereas Bryant was a bust from Day 1.

wadsworthless never "wanted to play"...he wanted to get paid....I remember screaming at the tv when he was drafted.....and calling in on a radio show and telling them the cards needed to let this chump re-enter the next years draft..

never ever draft a finance major who is being hyped as the "next Bruce Smith".... that clown never wanted to be a cardinal....and he has the very proud distinction of being the only Cards jersey I have ever pissed on.

Totally agree. His children go to Scottsdale Christian Academy and he is very involved with them and the school.
My granddaughters also attend there, I've seen him at many events and fund raisers. He is community oriented and a first class person. :thumb:

Wadsworth, Mark Smith, Simeon Rice and Eric Swann...man what a dream front four. Ended as quickly as it began...

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

I heard at first the ice cream cone is amazing and then it quickly falls apart.

Wadsworth, Mark Smith, Simeon Rice and Eric Swann...man what a dream front four. Ended as quickly as it began...

This dream front four played a total of 4 games together in 1998.
Either Swann blew his knee out or Wadsworth did. Smith left the team soon after and was out of the league. Simeon was a damn good player that hated playing for us.

Sad. I had such high hopes for that season...well, that defense, anyway.

Wow.

Wadsworth also held out that season before signing his rookie contract the night before game 1 missing all of training camp and preseason.

I agree. Wadsworth enacted a plan from day 1 after the Cards drafted him to blow out his knee and have several surgeries on it.

From now on, the Cards should only draft general studies majors who are being called the next Wendell Bryant.

1) What Cardinals' first-round pick DIDN'T have some sort of holdout before picks were slotted in 2011? That's not on AW, that's on management.

2) The guy's knees failed him. Hard to give him the "Bust" label when you factor in his injuries.

We can agree the Wadsworth pick left a bad taste in our mouths and I'll be damned if I'm going to let it happen again. If you do it's on you this time; not Bidwill.

I hear ice cream helps with that bad taste in your mouth.

 

[DeAnna]

Wonder who wrote his Wiki page .. it state's he is one of the biggest NFL draft busts, and that he wanted to get paid like Peyton Manning and Ryan Leaf which were 1 and 2 respectively. Then he held out until first game of the season. Had surgery with Dr Steadman, against the organization's policy. Didn't play much after that.

Complete bull****. I met Andre Wadsworth and he had a chunk the size of a quarter taken out of his leg just below the knee. It was during the Spring after the playoff win over Dallas. He told me the injury happened in the Giants game at SDS in December. (Which some people here will remember as it was the coldest game ever at SDS and it rained and sleeted.) He finished the season and played in the playoffs, and he played well.

Sorry, but I absolutely cannot stand such judgmental posts when you obviously know jack frigging squat about the person or his character and the facts of their life.

If you want a trip down memory lane, here is the Giants game I mentioned.

The weather that day was soooo miserable, especially after the sun went behind the stands.

It was the only time I ever shivered at a game at SDS. I was so depressed when we lost, as I thought the playoffs were unlikely. The miserable cold did not help my mood at all.

It;s easy to forget how miserable that game was when we closed out the season with two amazing wins against the Saints and Chargers to get a Wild Card spot.
