The most amazing thing to me about Vince Young is how, precisely when he's taking over a game and scoring the winning touchdown, he just appears to be jogging, like he's playing in the backyard with his little cousins. As for the decision to pick Williams over VY--you'd think a quick look at Orpheus Roye and the rest of the Cleveland Browns' DL first-round picks would have clued them in. At least they didn't take a receiver... Not exactly a timely comment here, but–you’re right.

Oh, I'm not a fair-weather fan, mind you; I endured (albeit as a child, but a sensitive, football-fan child who was frequently mocked for sporting creamsicle orange t-shirts emblazoned with the likeness of a gay pirate) the most abysmal string of losses in professional sports (not just football -- sports!) history. I'll be back on board next year. But the combination of moderately high expectations and wretched performance has alienated me for the 2006 season. I still watch. But I watch without hope. Good thing I have the Gators to console me, the University of Florida Gators who, against all odds and inspite of their error-filled execution and bone-headed play-calling, will contend for the title this year. And as I endure the taunts of confident Buckeye co-workers who are sure their team will make mincemeat of my lowly reptiles, I remind them that I was the sole person in the office football pool last year who picked the Horns over the "invincible" Trojans. Vince Young, baby. Of course, the Gators don't field anyone worthy to hold his jockstrap and will probably get trounced, but still, Vince Young inspires.

The Titans are still only moderately impressive, compared to the utter revolution The Good Bush has performed on the perpetual Losers, oops, Saints. Now, put them both in the same uniform, and you've got a truly terrifying team Y’all have been sniffing that Yellow Rose too much.
