Who Will Take Him: Atlanta loves him because he's safer than your girlfriend's gay shopping buddy.

Hobbies: 94, 51, 56, and the one on the far right...

And 98 that one night he was really trashed.

Favorite Food: Chowdah!

Story ESPN Will Shove Down Your Throat: He's from small-town Pennsylvania, he attended a prestigious Quaker high school, he attended a prestigious Catholic college, and he emits a distinct odor of apple pie.

Down the Road: Another generic disappointment.

Wow, this got buried quick.

I hope the Dolphins take him. That way Pats fans can cheer for Adalius Thomas to sack a nice white boy from Boston College. And then, Foxboro stadium will implode.

I hear the skins are in need of a QB...what's that, they've already got Lionel Richie running the offense? My point exactly.

"Safer than your girlfriend's gay shopping buddy."

Well done guys! That and as a BC fan the whole Matty Ice nickname always annoyed me. Why were we insultly our guy?

Les Savy Ferd said...

so what you're telling me is that repressed catholic blue chip quarterbacks are prone to promiscuous behavior with blond and/or slender young ladies in short-shorts? I'm sure the young ladies at BC are too clever to fall for that angle.

it would take a lot of his moniker's namesake for me to hit 56. She's not well in the face.
