Political correctness ( or cancel culture as it is called today) is a doctrine fostered by a delusional ,illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by MSM which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

Re: Brian Brohm
Biggest bust ever is a bit much. He was a 2nd rounder. Lots of guys picked higher than him sucked twice as hard.I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

Re: Brian Brohm
He's not the biggest bust ever. He's a player who was 1st exposed in his senior year, falling out of the 1st round as a result, then basically proved he couldn't play in pre-season with the Packers enough to get waived and no GM picking him up a year later. When he came to the Bills off GB's practice squad, it was a shot in the dark that he wasn't the player the rest of the league's GMs thought he was. He proved those GMs right, but he really didn't cost the Bills anything other than a roster spot & a couple of losses which they probably have still lost without him. When he was on the Bills, I tried to tell his fans exactly what I've written here in a little more detail and all I got from them was "You hate him. I saw him play in college", when all I was doing was giving a fair analysis that no guy who had gotten drafted as high as him had been waived with no interest in his 2nd season, indicating that all the GMs had seen enough of him to realize he wasn't NFL material.Originally posted by ticatfan View Post
He's a guy from a coaching family who should start his coaching career pretty soon at a low level & see if he can work his way up. I'm not sure whether he believes that he can ever play QB in the pros or if he's just adding to a list of contacts for his coaching career down the road.Comment

Re: Brian Brohm
I was onboard with picking up Brohm, and it doesn't really bother me that it didn't pan out. IMO your 3rd QB spot should be used on these types of longshots and after his college career I thought he had some potential. Oh well.
