1. No, not being suicidal (except for a few foolish incidents in my youth) . . .

I never wanted to be a quarterback. There's got to be a better way to pay for school.

2. Quarterback is fun, but real men play defense. Hitting is where it's at.

7. In my book, the only reason to want to be quarterback..

Is because you get to date the head cheerleader.. ;)

I still remember the line from "Revenge of the Nerds" I think it was when the nerd schtups the cheerleader and says something to the effect of "all athletes think about is sports, all nerds think about is sex".

8. Where did you get the Coug pics? Nice!

I haven't been to a game this year but I'm on campus doing blood drives quite often. We are supposed to be contracted to take the bus up to a game for some promo. Not sure which one.

9. One of the things I find most interesting about the differences in sports

is the way the fans must be totally quiet so as not to break the concentration of a golfer about to hit a ball - even though there are not 300 pounders about to break his bones, while the quarterback not only has those 11, but also thousands of screaming fans hoping it will happen. Now, that is concentration.

the right decision, then execute flawlessly....
