How to Solve a QB Controversy?

The Jaguars over the past few seasons have constantly struggle to figure out who their starting quarterback was. They had the one quarterback in Leftwich with the massive arm but feet that work like they were stuck in concrete and the mobile but much less accurate David Garrard. Every year they would start the season off with Leftwich as the starter and then eventually he would get injured and they would fill in for the time being with Garrard. The Jaguars would then win a few games in a row, people would clammer that he was the better fit and that the Jaguars needed his mobility and ability to "make" plays happen. And then they start the whole process over the next season. So what would be is the best solution for the Jaguars? How about merging the two quarterbacks into a single entity?


Ya that's right folks the Jaguars brass have told both of their quarterbacks that they might be interested in Culpepper. Interesting move. The acquisition of Culpepper would give the Jaguars a quarterback who potentially would combine both the arm strength and accuracy of Leftwich with the mobility of Garrard. The problem, he also has the injury history of Leftwich and the proneness to the turnover of Garrard. So basically, what the hell would be the point. How about you just pick a quarterback and go with him, as novel of a concept as it may be, how about if Leftwich gets hurt one more time you bench him completely and just get rid of him. He may be a tough kid, and plays through a lot of pain, but there's something to be said for someone that is always injured. It can't all be bad luck.

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big...

Guest Post: Thoughts on Sabathia Signing

I asked Grutt what his thoughts were on the Sabathia signing and I thought his response pretty much nailed it. So here it is. I don’t know. Every year I get a little more disenchanted with baseball. Yea, it’s great we signed the top pitching free agent. But we were supposed to. No team was even in the ballpark of the Yankees offer yet they still needed to jump from the already ridiculous price of $140 million to $160 million to close the deal. Now I hear we are going to sign more pitchers who will also get large contracts and the position player gaps are still glaring. Each new, large contract just adds to the feeling that the Yanks are supposed to win it all. “I think we have a good chance this year.” That is a lost feeling. If they don’t win I’ll wonder why, like there has to be some other reason besides that it’s a sport you can never predict how things will work out and some years just aren’t yours to be won. If they win I will be pleasantly smug. It gets a little more...
