Troysus in Samoa
- September 7, 2011
- filed under Steelers, Troy Polamalu
Troysus visited Samoa and well, just go watch the video and see the pictures over at ESPN Magazine.
Things to notice: Troy can dance. Troy cries. Troy has a beautiful family.
Troy is shirtless.
Amen.

The full spread is ESPN magazine is good – there’s a full page of him shirtless, in the water, holding both his babies – so precious! I loved the article!

Love Samoa, My favorite Samoan quote came after a luau. A samoan football player said ” We Samoans don’t stop eating because we are full, we stop eating cause we get tired of eating”.
Took me awhile to learn to pronounce Samoa correctly. It isn’t Sam-oa it is more like Saw-moa. (Troy says it correctly).
Wonderful generous culture, lovely lovely people.

Emulate this REAL man, you douchebag.

OK, I love me some Troysus but I don’t get two things:
1. In all his life, Troy has only been to Samaoa one other time. He was born in CA and raised in OR. I’m not sure why he is treated like such a king by the Samoans. Sure, his family is Samoan but there are other NFL players who were actually raised there. I am not, however, denying this man’s right to explore his heritage. It’s just that he’s not really FROM Samoa.
2. What’s up with this quote: “A few women even tried to make out with me,” he says, laughing. “If you fight it, it will be like a confrontation, so you kind of give in — to a point.” What the hell does Mrs. Troysus think about THAT? That knocked a little bit of the sparkle of his crown for me.
All hail Troysus!

The hair-net wearing Troysus in the video only convinces me of one thing. HOT even if he were bald. Thankyouverymuch.
