I agree with you. It could 1b with 1a being the Ole Miss presser.
No Dirty Bird?
I couldn't stand Merton Hanks when he played, but when I watch that herky-jerky move now I love it.
Obviously the jury is still out on Tebow's NFL success, but Plummer proved that he was a winner in Denver and his passing statistics were MUCH better than Tebow's. I think if you surveyed NFL players, a group that largely agrees with Tebow's religious beliefs and therefore should have little reason to discriminate based on that alone, they would tell you they would prefer mid-2000s Plummer over Tebow as their own team's QB.
I understand your side too. Maybe it wasn't his place to discuss the issue, but everyone else in America has an opinion on Tebow (including me) and he was asked by the interviewer to give his thoughts.
I don't have a problem with Tebow or his faith in and of themselves, but I think he has taken it to a level of piety and grandstanding that I don't think is appropriate. To have a personal relationship with someone/something you place faith in is wonderful, but to project that relationship onto the masses without their solicitation (and to thereby suggest that your belief structure is the only right one and superior to anyone else's) is not something I welcome.
I agree about Plummer. He walked away from football on his own terms. Tampa Bay even acquired him with the desire to make him their starting QB in 2007, but Plummer chose to retire instead.
Hey Mike, thanks for visiting the site. I'm glad we could help you out with some info for Thursday. Here's to hoping you and your family have a great Thanksgiving.
Spot on, Jonathan Washburn. Now let me get back to slamming my face into my wall while thinking about not having NBA basketball this season and Tim Duncan's last legitimate chance at a title being wasted because guys like Brendan Haywood and Travis Outlaw think they deserve $7M-$10M a year.
The accident involving Dan Wheldon was tragic, and on occasion cars do get into the air during KART and Indy races. But never have I seen one fly hundreds of yards into a pond outside the race track. Granted, I haven't seen more than a couple dozen KART/Indy races, but I would think a crash like that would have been replayed often throughout the years. Nevertheless, thanks for visiting and taking the time comment.
That was why I included it. It's not the kick, specifically, but the combination of the kick and the circumstances are what made it ridiculous. Thanks for visiting and commenting.
