Blasting McNabb


Donovan McNabb is a chump. Actually he’s a stupid chump. I nominate him as dumbest athlete in America. Is he actually the dumbest? No, probably far from it, but all the other athletes that are dumber are at least smart enough to either A) keep their mouths shut or B) try and fool us. McNabb’s stupidity came to light when the Eagles game with the Bengals ended in a tie and McNabb admitted at the press conference that “he didn’t know a game could end in a tie”. Wow. And as if that’s not bad enough he compounded his stupidity by saying “I’d hate to see what would happen in the playoffs”. What?! Are you really that dumb Donovan? Um duh they wouldn’t end a playoff game in a tie you moron. Obviously in the post season the game would continue until a team scored, just like they did in hockey all those years when games could end in a tie (prior to the new shootout format). It’s actually scary that he would not know you could end a football game tied, but it’s even scarier that he would admit that to the world. Most of us when confronted with a situation at work that we’re unfamiliar with or don’t have an answer to will normally skirt the issue. Possibly we won’t admit our lack of knowledge or if we do it would be to a select person we felt we could trust. Donovan McNabb stood up in front of the country and admitted he was an idiot. Maybe we’ll see him soon on “Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader?”. He’d be a perfect candidate. I bet most 5th grade boys would actually know a football game can end in a tie.
Now as far as being a chump, he’s given up on his team this year. McNabb is loaded with talent and the only way you can explain his performance in yesterday’s first half against Baltimore is that he has flat out given up on this team and this season. He’s too good to play that poorly and make that many bad decisions. On 3rd and 1 he’s launching bombs downfield to well covered receivers while he has guys open just 5 yards away. The other thing that really sticks in my craw is that every time they showed McNabb on the sidelines yesterday he was yawning seemingly too disinterested in the game to stay awake. Yes, he clapped on a couple occasions to “show his support”, but gimmee a break. Yawning? You have to play one game a week and you can't get pumped up for it? He shouldn’t have been clapping or yawning. He should have been in the game helping his team try and win. It kinda makes me think back to the soap opera he had with Terrell Owens. Maybe they were more alike than we realized and THAT’S why they didn’t get along. They were too similar-loaded with talent, selfish, and stupid.
