:slappy:

Extreme Scumbags & Pricks Network - Exhibit A: Mark May, Rece, and Craig James!

EDIT: They just asked Luck AGAIN!

What part of STFU-and-address-the-game-tonight are these idiots not understanding!
And they just asked Harbie again!

Perhaps when the super conferences pull out and make their own league, they can add an NFL style network to give true sports fans an alternative to the bloated ESPN ego.

Honestly, I haven't been following Harbie - what's he been doing the years before Stanford?

Pretty impressive turnaround.

Cool - thanks for the backfill. Wasn't too up on his resume.
Seems to have the skills.

Man, I just don't get the media's wet panties over Andrew Luck.

Locks in on his primary receiver.
Little or no YAC because of poorly placed balls.
Receivers have to stop or make big adjustment to get to the ball.

He's good, but to hear the media talk, you'd think he's the second coming of John Elway.

32 TDs 8 INT for the season. They may not get many yards after catches, but the ones I saw him make were in tight coverage and either the receiver could catch it or no one could.

Go back and watch the TD pass on that two play drive. Receiver basically had to stop and wait for the ball on a wide-ass-open post pattern. Defender nearly caught up to him as he caught it.

If he throws it five yards deeper, he hits his receiver in stride without anyone being within 15 yards.

Having said that, he played a much better second half. Settled in and made some good throws. I'm still not convinced he's the second coming of John Elway, but time will tell.
