Around SBN: The Gift Of The 2003 Tigers

The world will come to an end in 2010 not 12

why you may ask because a qb that started the year on the bench behind a man we like to refer to as vodka is going to the PRO BOWL as an alternate to Philip Rivers. I mean its understandable for someone to go as an alternate because our very own teh Schaub got in that way, but really Vince Young is going to the pro bowl. This is an insult to Schaub to say that vince young is in the same league as him. For God sakes the supposed man was on the bench for half the season. I am heavily frustrated because of this and my keyboard has to suffer as I pound away at the keys. Once again the world is coming to an end Vince Young is going to the pro bowl. Let see what little dicky justice age 12 has to say about this.

i wonder if he is going to make another texans made the worst mistake ever by selecting mario williams over VY column again

I know MCM is supposed to be blogcotting BRB, but

which other QB deserves to be there?

Peyton Manning, Phillip Rivers, Tom Brady, Matt Schaub, Ben Roethlisberger, and Carson Palmer were voted higher than Vince.

Ryan Fitzpatrick, Brady Quinn, Kyle Orton, David Garrard, Matt Cassel, Chad Henne, Mark Sanchez and Jamarcus Russell were the quarterbacks voted lower than Vince.

Which one of those QBs should have made it over Vince then?

ok...

Greater point being, we have a certain sportswriter who writes at least monthly how Mario was the wrong pick. To call the man a moron would be an insult to other morons and even Peter King. And now? This will be fodder for at least five more columns of undying love and I-told-you-sos from a man who sleeps with a VY poster above his bed.

I'll go

Kyle Orton and David Garrard…

Two guys who weren’t riding the pine for 6 out of 16 games…

It’s kind of why NBA people are going crazy of Tracy McGrady and Allen Iverson being All-Star starters right now despite not really playing this season….

by TexansDC on Jan 20, 2010 8:47 PM CST up reply actions  

I would go with Jamarcus Russell b/c he just wins man.

tell that to the guys in MCM they going balistic because i said VY didnt deserve to go

by Texan Youngster on Jan 20, 2010 10:18 PM CST reply actions  

It's because you made some poor arguments

And you’re overreacting. You’re acting like VY’s going because everyone is biased for him. He’s going because so many QB’s pulled out. Chill out.

by TheElusiveShadow on Jan 21, 2010 6:53 AM CST up reply actions  

many people are biased for him because everyone says he just wins games when that is not entirely true

He’s going because the Titans defense snapped back to reality about the time he took over the starting job. If he had started the first half of the season, they still would have lost them all. I think it’s fair to get frustrated that a player who’s only real possitive this season was “he didn’t totally screw up” is going to be playin in the league’s all star game.

by Bryan72076 on Jan 21, 2010 10:09 AM CST up reply actions  

Then you didn't watch the Titans play

Kerry Collins was not the only reason they lost, but he played awful. Vince was a clear upgrade, so much so that his detractors in Tennessee (and there were many) were forced to admit it. He didn’t have anywhere close to big support in Tennessee. He gave them some semblance of a passing game, had a positive effect on Chris Johnson, and helped their defense out by not turning the ball over at the rate Collins was and by actually moving the chains. To say that Vince Young was the only reason they started winning is ignorance, but so he is saying he was only incidental to it.

by TheElusiveShadow on Jan 21, 2010 10:59 AM CST up reply actions  

I'll fully admit that Vince played better than I anticipated

-at least initially. But then again the bar was set pretty low with him, and it seemed that he regressed as the season wore on. Also, I’ve never bought the argument that he made CJ that much better because CJ hits the whole so fast and is so good at breaking tackles that he probably could have run for 1500 yards with the Texans’ offensive line.

And, to be totally honest, a lot of the dislike people have for VY around here has a lot more to do with the way the media treat him, especially Little Dickie Justice, Age 12. The reality is that no single player in the NFL is so good that the win games singlehandedly, yet VY seems to get all the credit (again in the media I’m talking about) when they do well but when the Tits fail, he seems to avoid the blame.

When you consider all the VY fanboys and their cheerleaders at the Chronicle out there who still somehow think that he was a better choice than Mario even though it is patently clear that Mario was the better pick it just makes you sick sometimes.

The Texans.

So it's not unusual

That a QB who had a 58.7 completion percentage, 1,879 yards passing, 10 TDs, and 7 INTs is going to be playing in the league’s all star game? Again, I don’t think it’s crazy for someone to think those are undeserving numbers for the probowl. How about these QBs…

Flacco 63.1%, 3613yds, 21 TD, 12 INT
Orton 62.1%, 3802yds, 21 TD, 12 INT
Garrard 60.9%, 3597yds, 15 TD, 10 INT

And again compared to..

Young 58.7%, 1,879yds, 10 TD, 7INT

Is he really the next best available? Really??

by Bryan72076 on Jan 22, 2010 12:38 AM CST up reply actions  

no

I suppose if all of the stars, moons and planets align it could be possible, but what are the chances of that?

by Rip Jersey on Jan 23, 2010 8:24 AM CST up reply actions  

That's not the issue

So much as Little Dickie Justice, Age 12 and the rest of the know-nothing media making such a big deal out of it.

Like the last time he made the Pro Bowl as the 12th alternate.

The Texans.

I'd put Roethlisberger in there ahead of VY

I would challenge you to a battle of wits, but you appear to be unarmed.

He was

by HoustonTransplant on Jan 21, 2010 3:32 AM CST up reply actions  

I know its only because other QBs pulled out, but it still makes it a mockery of the whole process imo. Just do away with the pro bowl game altogether and make it like an award only. Saying Vince Young was an all star in 2009 is just pitiful. If all you have to do to make the pro bowl is hand off to a good RB, then David Garrard is more deserving. Whats even more disgusting is that lil Dickie actually gets paid cash money to swing from VY’s nuts all the time. Doesn’t that make him a prostitute? All thats missing is a few needles and railroad tracks.

Help me flick the Comicle off

By voting for Mario in this poll!

http://blogs.chron.com/sportsupdate/archives/2010/01/revisiting_the.html

It’s a poll where you can vote for who’s had the best career so far between Mario, V(sucks)Y and Bush.

They placed Mario’s name in the middle so if enough people voted for Mario, it’s gonna look like. Well, you get the drift.

by Jordann on Jan 21, 2010 9:43 AM CST reply actions  

I voted twice

Once from work and once from home.

I would note that currently Mario is garnering 68% of the vote, proving conclusively that fully two-thirds of Houstonians are smarter than Little Dickie Justice, Age 12.
