The Questions With Kareem McKenzie
What was yourwelcome-to-the-NFL moment?
My first preseason game, with the Jets, the O-line coach yelled at me formessing up. I was like, Wow. They don't do that in college--at Penn Stateeverything's warm and fuzzy.
Mostembarrassing moment?
Last year I went the wrong way on an audible and I knocked [Jeremy] Shockeydown. A knockdown block on my teammate. It's an ongoing joke in practicesnow.
Favorite off-dayactivity?
I shoot pool and I watch a lot of cartoons.
If I werecommissioner for a day, I'd...
...shorten the preseason. Maybe three preseason games.
If I weren'tplaying football, I'd...
...probably be in law enforcement. I'm a fast driver, but when someone passesme or does something stupid on the road, I wish I could pull them over. I'd bea highway patrolman, boy.
