Former Illinois soccer star Tip Reiman had essentially the most memorable quote of the NFL Mix to date … telling reporters he believes birds will not be what they appear!!
For individuals who aren’t in on the joke … the “Birds Aren’t Real” motion made waves a couple of years in the past, when a man named Peter McIndoe created a satirical conspiracy that winged animals are literally spy drones for the U.S. Authorities.
A bunch of individuals joined in on the troll job … and now, it is even made its strategy to skilled soccer.
Reiman — who had 203 yards and three touchdowns final season — revealed his allegiance with the motion on Thursday … hitting reporters with a number of questions that assist his stance.
“Have you ever seen a baby pigeon?” Reiman requested, in response to Owen Riese. “How do we know that power lines aren’t pigeon recharging stations?”
Some individuals suppose Reiman is definitely severe … evaluating him to Aaron Rodgers, who’s been identified to rock a tinfoil hat occasionally.

However Reiman’s take wasn’t the one weird assertion out of Indy this week — Texas Tech standout Tyler Owens additionally advised reporters he would not imagine different planets exist … including some flat-earthers have a robust argument.
