Carter a no-show at Ruff Riders game

Quarterback Quincy Carter was a no-show for Saturday night's Abilene Ruff Riders' game against Odessa at Taylor County Coliseum.

When the Riders were introduced, Randy Hymes was named the starting quarterback. Hymes, who signed with the Riders as a receiver and caught four touchdown passes last week against San Angelo, played quarterback in college at Grambling.

Carter had not started a game since being injured late in the May 23 game against El Paso. He played the fourth quarter last week in San Angelo when his backup, David Bowie, went down with an ankle injury. Bowie was released Sunday after throwing four interceptions in a 56-32 loss.

Riders officials said he didn't show up for pregame workouts and was scratched.

A team official said Carter was contacted at his apartment but was "incoherent" in response to questions about his whereabouts.

We were at the game. A rumble went through the crowd after the team was introduced. It wasn't really a surprise, but still dissapointing. This guy is really screwed up. When you get cut by an IFL semi-pro arena football team....... he's done.:doh:

Ruffriders won and Quincy Carter is no longer a member of the team after being cut this evening. How do you get so drunk you miss a game? Aarons is going monday morning to get their property from his apt... lol Way to prove to the world your not a loser.

He makes a huge difference in this league. He is so athletic and throws some perfectly placed darts but he isnt smart enough to play qb on a flag team. Reminds me of Michael Bishop all the talent and ability in the world just dumber than a box of rocks.

I think you are correct, it is just a matter of time before he ends up in prison or worse dead.:(
