High fives might be in order
“While playing beer pong, if you throw it too far and completely miss the table, it is now called a "JaMarcus Russell."
First things first. If the Jets win tonight, I’m $20 richer, so let’s go Sanchez and Co. Of course, I have to thank my very own Touchdown Copernicus for giving me the definitive upset hint of the week: Bengals over Ravens. If only I had trusted him twice and taken Seattle; the money would already be spent.
It was another big win for the Vikings despite their hapless opponent. Coming off a short week is always tough and the Vikes dominated the game from the beginning. Does anyone remember the last time an NFL team from Missouri won a game? No seriously… I think I was still living in the dorms.
Now on to my potentially favorite new NFL topic: quarterbacks worse than Tarvaris Jackson. Meet JaMarcus Russell. The first overall pick in the 2007 NFL draft, he is in line to go down as one of the biggest busts of all time. He went 8 for 13 yesterday against the Giants for 100 yards, no touchdowns, no interceptions and three fumbles. Believe it or not, these numbers actually helped improve his stats. As my dad would say, “He’s T. Jack’s Mississippi.”
