Sports. In February. Dear God.
Cupid's month is also the month of pure, unadulterated crap in the sporting world. 28 days of men's figure skating, the X-Games and PBA Bowling (brought to you by Denny's!). The Super Bowl is long gone and March Madness has yet to get appropriately...mad. So it's no wonder that people latch on to a non-story like the barely-percolating Titans' quarterback controversy.
Vince Young says
he wants to be the starter. Coach Jeff Fisher says he's sticking with Kerry Collins (so long as he re-signs). Oh, the drama!
Yeah, we're still months from training camp. Half a year from the first game. And, in between, this tired little plot line will be rehashed more times than the Middle East peace talks.
But here's the thing: For a sports fan, NFL news in February is the desert mirage that keeps us from giving up. Without it, we'd probably start having to help out around the house. Or, heaven forbid, watching golf.
So who's it gonna be? The shirtless, Patron swilling heir-apparent or the Gorton's Fisherman? Discuss.
