The Big Ten Is Irrelevant - Again

[Jagdaddy]

Nah, if it was a clowns scout, he'd have just answered..."Who? Marvin Gordon? Listen, I'm very busy. Hey, do you know if they have those big, soft pretzels with the gooey cheese here?"

Reminds me of an old ad (I can't remember what it was for or dig it up where draft guys are running out of time and can't hear clearly and keep yelling "call the office, the office, office!" until they inadvertently select unknown prospect Ortega Arfus.

Here is one I just couldn't let go without commenting on:

MJS draft article

Here's another classic from that article, about one of my favorites (Kevin White from WVU) - note the bolded comments:

Kevin White, WR, West Virginia: 6-3, 215. Junior-college player for two years. "He's more of a Larry Fitzgerald-type receiver in that he doesn't have great speed," said one scout. "I never see him beat people deep." ... Made a ton of money with 40 time of 4.35.

If I was that bad at my job I'd have the dignity to just quit.

Any chance these scouts are trying to spread a bit of misinformation to keep the press away from some of their team's targets?

If I am a rival scout and see a guy run a 4.35 you aren't going to throw me off the scent by telling me he doesn't actually have great speed.

But that's just me.

That's why I asked if it was to keep the press, not other scouts. Also, i believe the article quote was before the Combine runs.

On an unrelated note, that Jessica Alba's kind of ugly.

Really?

I guess I'll quit stalk wooing her then.

Has anyone ruled out that these are scouts for the Reds?

I'd like to see some of these players run a timed 40 in pads from a football stance with upright technique, not a 3-point stance with their head down most of the way.

How would we get those sub 4.4 run times then?? No point in. The track meet I mean draft without that sec speed
