Tuesday afternoon quarterback

To lazy to post anything on the weekend and to stunned to find out that a team that shut down the nations top rated offense and passer on Saturday actually fell two spots in the polls. I guess a 38-0 shutout isn't enough to impress anyone and is in fact, looked down on.

Anyway my random collection of thoughts:

- Look past the two TD's and career high passing yards TP put up on Saturday. The kid still looks incredibly timid at times, continues to throw off his back foot (often times into double and triple coverage). He needs to learn that this isn't NCAA 2010 and stop forcing plays and causing turnovers. It's all good when I am on my PS3 and running Colt McCoy all over the place making the impossible possible, but not something I want to see my starting QB do time and time again.

- The defense continues to play well. No complaints here. Brian Rolle continues to impress me and I am still very relieved to see Jermaile Hines in at safety with Anderson Russell safely tucked away on the sidelines. I don't know of any post route that can burn him there, though I am sure he's working on it.

- I've come down from the ledge over the SC game. Afterall, Im used to heartbreak. I am a Buckeye and a Kings and Dodgers fan. I'm used to having teams rip my heart out (or not making the playoffs in almost a decade). Still, I think JT needs to find a new OC and really woudn't mind if he suddenly retired. Looking at the game three times, I firmly believe that if JT called a good game, Ohio State cruises to a 14+ win over SC.

- You can never count me as one of those people who fell in love with Boom Herron. He looks terribly slow to me. I thhink Boom is a good change of pace back as he's been in the past, but I don't think he's someone you can live with getting 20+ carries. I'd like to see more of Jordan Hall and less of Boom.

- Saine's found a nice little niche as a WR\RB.

- I've seen enough Nascar commercials to last me a lifetime. Also, whilst watching a Buckeye game, I'd like to hear less Nascar talk. I've absorbed far too much Nascar and Danny Hamlin information.

- Why did the Dodgers get Jim Thome?

- The Dodgers will break my heart in October. Count me ready.

- Kings training camp opens. I am confident that this group will in fact end an eight year playoff drought and could even make some noise in the playoffs. JMFJ is the only wolverine I'd ever cheer for, but, that's why he's Jack Mother Fucking Johnson.

- I missed Gary's Steve Rehring tribute jersey on Saturday. Frankly, I think Gary needs to get that thing autographed by the man himself, though that may require a trip to the Diamond Cabaret in Dublin....we'll that's not a bad thing.

- The Fighting Lumberg's come to the shoe on Saturday. Here's hoping I hear Bill telling Juice "Yeah, if you could learn the forward pass, that would be greeeeaaaaaat" rather than watching the Fighting Lumberg's dance on the Block O whilst celebrating the biggest upset in the NCAA since well, whoever upset USC. Many congrats to Petey for once again choking a game away to an unranked team. I love watching USC play scrubs because really, you never know which one they are going to lose to. Does this mean U Dub does not appear on the USC "Conquest" list for the year?
