I don't know why but when the guy in the beard talks I just want to punch him in the face.

Re: Video on E.J. Manuel and the risk of starting him
Live or Die indeed.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.

Risk of starting him? The guy has played on a broken leg and just had surgery 2-1/2 weeks ago, so pain isn't an issue. His mother had cancer and went through treatment his senior season, and this isn't life or death, so mentally he'll be fine.
