The Runaway Vince

Vince Young as The Runaway


Once again Tennessee Titans Vince Young has garnered the attention of the sporting world, in a bad way. In the latest of the Vince Young saga, Young and Titans Head Coach Jeff Fisher had a heated verbal altercation at the end of a 19-16 loss to the Washington Redskins. Young threw his equipment into the stands on Sunday and, according to multiple media outlets, Young lashed out at Fisher in a profanity laden tirade.

Could this be the last image of Vince Young in a Titans uniform? 1

The Titans have a real problem on their hands as every time it appears that Young has turned a corner and grasped the reigns of leadership, he reverts back to being an immature man-child, running away from pressures of leadership. This is not the first time that Young has evaded commitment, growth, and maturity. The Daily Hat Trick has acquired a rare transcript of Vince Young’s runaway moments.


April, 1996 – Junior High Dance

Vince: (with R. Kelly’s “Down Low” playing in the background) So are you having fun?

Girl: I sure am Vincent. You’re so cute. All the girls like you. So…are you gonna kiss me?

Vince Young at his Jr. High Dance 2

Vince: Alright. (awkward pre-pubescent kissing sound)

Girl: You can do better than that. Here…nobody can see us. Put your hand under my shirt.

Vince: (nervous) Oh…well…I don’t know if I should uh…

Girl: Come on!

Vince: Ahhhh! (rapid footsteps…sound of the gym door flying open followed by kids laughing).



November, 1998 – Homecoming dance after party

(festive chattering in the background and “Say My Name” by Destiny’s Child playing in the background)

(sound of a bottle spinning)

Vince Stomaching Spin the Bottle

Kids: Ohhhh!

Boy: Vince, you’re up, dog! Y’all have to go into the love closet!

Vince (to girl): You ready for a round with “the King”?

Girl (giggling): Alright! Don’t go putting your ears against the door!

(door shuts…5 seconds later)

Vince: Ahhh! (rapid footsteps…item breaks in the room…kids are stunned, as if to say, “What the hell happened?”)



May, 2002 – High School Graduation Night

Male friend: Yo, Vince. You never tried Jager before?

Vince: That stuff tastes like cough medicine, man!

2nd male: Come on, man! You only graduate once.

Vince: Whatever. Hurry up and let’s do this.

(sound of shots being poured)

First male: Alright! Drink up!

(Boys exhale)

2nd male: Yo, Vince? You alright?

Vince: (not sounding so great) Man, what the (bleep) was that? (rapid footsteps)

Male: Hey where are you goin’

(footsteps continue, door shuts)

Vince: (barf sound, toilet flushes)

So, as you can see, old VY has just had a little trouble sticking around when the pressure is turned up. We’ll see how this ends in Tennessee. Most likely with Vince rapidly exiting the building and hopping into a U-Haul….
