The Flaming Yak

I just heard that the Pittsburgh Steelers are changing  "Big House" Ben Rothlisberger jersey number.

He's no longer Number 7 ...

He's GA Dept Justice number  09878-0986768737

Also,
He no longer wears a Red shirt over his practice jersey ... he wears a bright orange jumpsuit.

Look at the statistics for this Loose Cannon.   He makes Jeff George look like a complete QB.

Cutler throws more ITNs then Matt Stafford, who is ALWAYS behind, and a rookie.   And only beating out the likes of Brady Quinn and Kerry Collins.  Yikes!    Must hand it to Pat Bowlen and Josh McDaniel, they knew who was driving that offense: Brandon Marshall

MOST INTs
Cutler  22
Stafford 20
Delhomme 18

LOWEST RATINGS
22  Jay Cutler CHI    75.2
23  Chad Henne MIA   74.9
24  Brady Quinn CLE  70.7
25  Marc Bulger STL   70.7
26  Matt Cassel KC   68.3
27  Kerry Collins TEN   65.5
28  Mark Sanchez NYJ   63.7
29  Matthew Stafford DET  61.0
30  Jake Delhomme CAR   59.4

 

For the past few seaons, the main message from the commentators has been the "gunslinger" Jay Curtler is a star ready to shine in the right system, etc etc.   I think he's resembling Jeff George - a giant arm and a pee brain.

Honestly, I like both these guys.  I like Chad Ochocinco, too!

"A" Personality is better then "No" personality, anyday.     I liked seeing those long balls from Jeff George to Randy Moss and Cris Carter, even in Oakland, George was able to pitch a lot of pretty passes deep.   Jay Cutler can too!  But both these guys throw away games as fast as they win them ...

I am a Cutler fan - I hope he learns and matures.  

Otherwise, he will finish his career the same way as Jeff George - a legendary arm, with a sub-500 record and a paltry playoff record.

I am seeing less and less mulletts in hockey. Are they dying out ?   

Have all those jokes about mulletts finally risen northward, and penetrated the frozen conscience of Canada and made the mullett 'uncool' in the great white north?

Your opinion matters.
