JaMarcus and Vince Young

I refuse to rank them as Black QBs.

JaMarcus isn't a QB, he just takes the first snap from center. There is nothing he does that makes him a QB. He's usually 9-17 for about 54 yards no TDs and 3 picks. So he doesn't get ranked in post below.

Vince Young was the starting QB and lost it to Kerry Collins. One is an emotional mess and the other one was a drunk. If you become the starting QB because your issues are worse than your competition, that is not winning a starting job.

Rating Black QBs

Okay, you've asked for it. Here goes:

1. McNabb

2. Vick

3. Jason Campbell

4. David Garrard

5. Byron Leftwich

6. Tavaris Jackson

God, what a horrible list.

Couple of things

1) The Eagles have the two best black QBs on the same team.

2) Jason Campbell who is the 6th best QB in the NFC East is clearly the 3rd best black QB, since Garrard barely beat out Leftwich a couple of years ago and Jackson got beat out by a retired/unretired/retired/unretired/ Brett Favre.


Suggestions to Daniel Snyder - "Play any white guy". In fact, play any of the whities on your bench like Collins, Colt Brennan or if he wasn't cut Chase Daniels.

In fact, I think if Warren Moon came out of retirement at 60, I would put him #3.

6th Best

After peeking in on Eagles game, I just realized that Jason Campbell is now the 6th best QB in the NFC East.

McNabb, Manning, Romo, Vick, Jeff Garcia and then Jason Campbell.

The Redskins might want to evaluate how the Eagles have 3 Quarterbacks on their team that have been All-Pro, Jason Campbell is ..... NAP....Not-All-Pro.

Jason Campbell and Clinton Portis

Jason Campbell - I'm with the rest of the Skins fans --- he's a bum!

Clinton Portis - I'm with John Riggins --- he gains yard but never breaks a tackle!

Redskins and Softness

Redskins lose to a team on a 19 game losing streak with a rookie QB who is erratic as a passer, a running back who got hurt and had to leave the game, and bum offensive and defensive lines.

Here's why the Redskins lose. They hire a pretty boy, North West QB who is soft and is more concerned with schemes and being creative than he is with playing football.

Give me the Rex Ryan's of the world. Did anyone see the Jets today? They were flying around the field crushing people and blitzing from everywhere.

The Redskins were trying to 'out-creative' the other team.

Big Papi and A-Rod

NY vs. Boston Series going on and when those two ex-steroid guys come up to bat does anyone else notice they have 27 home runs or so for the year?

All these ex-home run hitters have 27, 29, maybe 30 --- when before they were hitting 40, 47, 49. Not to mention the Bonds, Maguires and Sosas who were hitting 60+ and 70+ home runs.

There shouldn't even be baseball records.

Miami vs. Va Tech

Miami and Florida State are frauds! Miami beats Fla St. (who loses to South Florida) and Fla St. beats a bum BYU and everyone thinks those programs are back.

Wrong! Both teams are extremely poorly coached. Someone might want to tell Randy Shannon that you don't pass and fumble and bumble around in the first quarter in a torrential rainstorm and get your team behind by 21 points, while Va Tech runs the ball every time down your throat.

Fla State? Bobby Bowden is a statue and whenever his team loses, he's looking around all confused and everyone just ignores him. He has no say into what is going on, he should go up into the press box so he doesn't get hurt.

Big 10 / Michigan Officials

For the second time in three weeks the Big 10 officials have decided a football game with questionable and some would say, crooked officiating. The play taken away from Indiana was borderline 'point shaving/on the take'.

These same Big 10 Officials basically won the Notre Dame for Michigan when they called back three touchdowns by Notre Dame (the Allen touchdown still being contested by ND people) and whistled ND for 9 penalties and 5 holding calls/late hits after plays were concluded. Some maintain that ND's penalties were called after they had already broken free for big yardage. Sort of like in pickup basketball when a guy calls a foul after he realizes he didn't make the shot.

Michigan has always operated below the credibility line in sports, e.g Weber and the Fab Five with Myron Piggy, Dick Rod and his illegal practices, etc....but now there might be a conspiracy as well as officials.

Opposing teams are not getting a fair shake at the Big House (appropriate name?)

Sonny Jurgensen

After Skins/Rams game in the locker room, Sonny Jurgensen, Redskins old QB and now color commentator says to Jim Zorn,

"If you would have sent that play in (the Clinton Portis halfback pass from the 3 yard line on 3rd down inside the red zone)when I was the QB, I would have ignored it and called my own play"

Zorn said, "If you would have done that I would have called TO and benched you"

Great exchange!

Somehow I can't see Jason Campbell doing that. They don't make QB's like they used to.

The other thing Jurgensen said was, "when I played the QB was the money maker!"

Ouch!

Maryland FB

The Fridge looks great! He must have lost about 100 pounds. Too bad his team stinks and is losing games faster than he is losing weight.

The only thing MD has going for it locally is that UVA is worse.

Instant Replay in College FB

There's too much! After every sideline catch, after every fumble, and what's really annoying is after every touchdown. Throw in injuries and timeouts as well as the longer TV timeouts and there is no flow to the game.

The worst is a long touchdown pass in the corner where the receiver gets his feet in, crowd goes crazy, played reviewed, crowd bored, officials confirm, crowd mildly cheers, lame extra point, commericial, kick off out of endzone, commerical......ugh.

Too many breaks in the action.

Washington's Upset of USC

Last year Washington under Ty Willingham did not win a game! This year they lost to LSU in the final minute and they upset USC. Coach Sarkisian has to be doing a good job but is this another indictment of the job that Ty does.

USC

For the fifth year in a row, USC loses to a non-ranked Pac 10 opponent to knock them back from the national championship picture.

Pete Carroll comes across as a nice guy who is loose as a goose and fun-loving. But when your team repeatedly is not ready to beat teams of lesser talent, you've got some explaining to do.

Semenya and Testes

Testing is back on the woman's runner from South Africa who had to be tested to find out if she was a man. The testing showed that she didn't have ovaries but had internal testes. They are saying that this makes her an hermaphrodite --- someone with both sex organs.

Heck, if I had situation going on, I'd never leave the house!

Miami vs. Florida State

Watched this game last night and I don't think either one of them is very good. They have average QBs, neither had much of a running game and their defenses were porous! Both these teams will be playing for middle of the pack bowl games - Little Caesar's Bowl.

Game of Shadows

If you haven't read it make sure you do. The book is about Balco and all the players who took steroids and human growth hormone. Suffice to say that pretty much every baseball player and track and field sprinter was on the juice.

Also leads me to believe that they aren't being caught now because the dopers are ahead of the testers once again.

Dick Rod and Michigan

Dick Rod survives another week after Michigan trounces Western Michigan. Notre Dame has an obligation to beat UM so that Dick Rod's head goes back on the chopping block.

BCS Nightmare

Boise State vs. Brigham Young --- lot of white mid-westerners watching that one!

OSU vs. Boise Fight

Suspending the guy for one year seems way too excessive. But I have a sneaking suspicion that it might be because his own team didn't stick up for him too much. I've heard that he was a overweight and not participating in preseason stuff and that he had already been kicked off the team once by the coaching staff only to be brought back. Seems like an issues guy!

So, if you're an issues guy when things go bad, people try to stick it to you and your own team and coaches remain silent.
