Drops are Overrated...

"Who cares if Braylon Edwards drops passes? Drops are overrated." Cap'n Douche

Umm, I bet the quarterback and coach care. The fans probably care too. The punter probably cares cause when Braylon Edwards drops a first down catch on 3rd and 8 then he has to come on the field.

He furthered his moronity by saying who cares if Kobe Bryant misses 5 out of 10 shots you still want him on your team. Umm, .500 from the field is pretty damn good so that statement made no sense whatsoever.

He then said who cares if Soriano makes errors or if Manny can't play left field. Probably the pitcher I'm guessing. Maybe his infield coach.

Just cause you're good at one thing, doesn't mean it's OK to suck at other things.

I Would Never Draft a Quarterback...

"I would always get my quarterback through free agency. Granted I would miss out on the Peyton Manning's of the world but I would always get my quarterback through free agency." Cap'n Douche

Yes that's a solid choice Cap'n Douche. To see just how solid of a choice it is, let's look at who has lead their teams to the Super Bowl Title the past few seasons?

2008: Pittsburgh, Ben Roethlisburger, DRAFTED
2007: New York Giants, Eli Manning, DRAFTED
2006: Indianapolis Colts, Peyton Manning, DRAFTED
2005: Pittsburgh, Ben Roethlisburger, DRAFTED
2004: New England Patriots, Tom Brady, DRAFTED
2003: New England Patriots, Tom Brady, DRAFTED
2002: Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Brad Johnson, Free Agent or Trade
2001: New England Patriots, Tom Brady, DRAFTED
2000: Baltimore Ravens, Trent Dilfer, Free Agent or Trade
1999: St. Louis Rams, Kurt Warner, Free Agent or Trade
1998: Denver Broncos, John Elway, DRAFTED
1997: Denver Broncos, John Elway, DRAFTED
1996: Green Bay Packers, Brett Favre, Free Agent or Trade
1995: Dallas Cowboys, Troy Aikman, DRAFTED
1994: San Francisco, Steve Young, Free Agent or Trade
1993: Dallas Cowboys, Troy Aikman, DRAFTED
1992: Dallas Cowboys, Troy Aikman, DRAFTED
1991: Washington Redskins, Mark Rypien, DRAFTED
1990: New York Giants, Jeff Hostetler, DRAFTED
1989: San Fransisco, Joe Montana, DRAFTED

The vast majority of Super Bowl winning QBs were garnered via the draft. Johnson and Dilfer won on the backs of their defenses. Favre and Young were acquired on the cheap after failed experiments at their previous stops and Kurt Warner was pulled out of Arena Football. No Super Bowl winner in the past 20 seasons has had a major free agent quarterback lead their team to the Super Bowl. But ya, if your team was run by Cowherd that's what you'd be looking for.

Sometimes Michael Kay Is Too Stupid To Ignore

I know this is typically focusing on Cap'n Douche and Senor Sleeping Pills (nicknames are a work in progress) but sometimes Giant Forehead (Michael Kay) is just blatantly too stupid to not post about. In discussing Jason Campbell and Jay Cutler he said this doozy:

Jay Cutler and Jason Campbells numbers were almost identical. They have basically the same completion percentage and QB rating. Everythings almost identical except for Yards." Giant Forehead

AHHHHH STUPIDITY ALERT STUPIDITY ALERT. Ahhhhhhhh.

Ok ok I'm composed now. Let's take a look. Cause the numbers a ludicrously different of course.



Ok they played 16 games a piece. Yay identical. Had similar QB ratings, completion percentages, and are comparitve in both rushing the ball and fumbling. Outside of that nothing is the identical. Nothing is even close to identical.

Cutler threw 12 more touchdowns and interceptions. That's not noticeable in the comparison? The two most noticeable QB stats aren't noticeable to you? Are you blind? Or just stupid. He threw 110 more times and threw for more than 1000 yards more. How they reached the same QB rating and completion percentage couldn't have possibly come from any different paths.

Wow. Just Wow.

If I was the Giants I Would....

Darren Woodson on The Herd discussing the impact of not having Plaxico Burress on the Giants. Woodson was discussing how Plaxico's size and dynamic abilities force teams into double teaming him and makes running the offense easier for everyone, which eventually lead to Cap'n Douche's General Management suggestions.

"The Giants have a ton of depth. If I was the Giants GM I would go to the Lions and get Calvin Johnson. " Cap'n Douche

"Hahahah, you're not getting Calvin Johnson." Woodson

"I'd offer them one of my 32 running backs." Cap'n Douche


The sad part is that he was completely serious about the Giants getting Johnson, as if there is any chance in the world of the Lions giving up their only good player. Grade A Analysis there.
