ESPN article

Sometimes ESPN provides humorous visions in my head. Like Karl Malone sitting on his couch – which is probably shaped like a big 18-wheeler – watching the bowl selection show and getting super pissed that Lousiana Tech (who’s most recent national championships have been men’s and women’s powerlifting) missed out on playing in 4th-tier bowl game against a team that’s never been to a bowl game (Lousiana-Monroe).

ESPN article from today.

While I have historically loathed the Redskins, I may have to get a RGIII shirt just to spite this whole “Andrew Luck has the look – by which I mean a tall white guy that played for a major college football program” thing that’s been happening. I don’t even need to do a statistical comparison to show the horridness of comparing Luck’s season to RGIII.

Well, maybe I do (numbers, league standing):

• Completion percentage: RGIII (67.5, 4th), Luck (56.8, 31; at least he’s ahead of Sanchize)
• Passer rating: RGIII (104.6, 4th; including the first rookie to post a perfect game, and it would be highest rookie rating of all-time), Luck (76.7, 29; again, at least he’s ahead of Sanchize)
• Total touchdowns: RGIII (22, T-6th), Luck (18, T-11)
• Interceptions: RGIII (4, T-30th), Luck (13, T-3rd)

Stop it.
