I’d Suggest Trying Warren Moon Instead

I decided to turn on the 1 o’clock game while I was doing some writing, only to discover that the only game showing was the monumental Jets/Raiders thriller. With my stereo broken, however, the other options are slim so I left it on, and every once in a while glanced over to see the Raiders QB throwing up one feeble wounded duck after another. “Wow, Kerry Collins’ arm is really shot!” thinks I. But a more careful listening revealed that the Raiders QB was ex-UW not-really-a-star Marques Tuiasosopo, something that has to make one of my co-bloggers doubly unhappy. (And nor can Jets fans be happy, as this decision may remove them from the Reggie Bush sweepstakes.) The scary thing is, though, that Tuiasosopo isn’t even the worst recent Huskie QB to start a game this year; the 49ers had enough contempt for their fans to try to pass off Cody Pickett as an NFL quarterback. I mean, I guess it’s always nice to see alumni get nice paydays, but…

Anyway, I think this is a sign that it’s time to go out for brunch.
