3rd Pick Overall ...Jared Zabransky
First off, Steve Young was sippin on the syrup a lil too early in the broadcast and missed on the most impressive and obvious "woulda/coulda/shoulda" and guessed Brady Quinn at the 3rd slot.
Hello...what was ol' #8 thinking? Post concussion syndrome is clearly evident when he opined that the Browns needed to select Brady Quinn.
However here is where the most undiagnosed conspiracy theory is being overlooked.
I could have sworn that the Commish whispered under his breath Jared Zabransky ( 26 second mark on the clip) when announcing the 3rd overall pick. Instead it appears that the Commish has been instructed to go with known amateur fisherman, Joe Thomas. I smell an investigation similiar to the Warren Commission in the near future.
Luckily, the next shot is not of Joe Thomas but of a sulking but more shocked Brady Quinn. Luckily the camera pans to some hottie who wants to make Brady Quinn her " Tom Brady Baby Daddy"(don't believe me, read the sign she is holding)....but then some idiots get in the way of the best looking hoodrat in the venue.....stinking Jets Fans.....
Luckily, the crowd picks up on the conspiracy theory surrounding the Zabransky/Thomas/Quinn selectionand they start chanting "Cleveland sucks, Cleveland sucks..."----another no-brainer by the Jets Fans.
Best Pick of the 1st round
P Willie going to the Niners...could be the 2nd best player in the draft for this upcoming season.....and I hate the NINERS!!!

The Question not asked by Don Imus? ( I nominate Heather Zurich to answer the all important question)
Shaven or Unshaven?
(Notice the school colors of our favorite local junior college making an appearance)
Why isn't Imus being accused of not asking the tough questions during this p.r. nightmare?

Spring scrimmage #2 4.6.07
Easiest way to see these pics in good detail is by clicking on them
This vehicle just made me laugh....and I needed it.
The best part of this pic is the classic "hands to the face" by Clady on some poor soul
Towards the end of the scrimmage, Tharp overthrows wideout
Coach Pete eyes ballcarrier( possibly Jarvis Hodge w/ blueshirt hanging out)
Lomax gets clobbered ( hidden on left side behind referee)
Lomax actually escaped this rush, on an undesigned rollout
Avery about to punch the ball in but fumbles....
Sweet play where Key runs cross field for an easy throw and catch for a touchdown.....perhaps with some help from the referee who might/might not have been used as a pick.
Bush threw the td pass and pointed to 3 guys in the upper deck on the west side seats, who were celebrating
All day to throw, provided by the o-line
Tharp with all the time in the world, RT is pancaking some poor soul
Bush rolling out, eluding Acrey #52
Avery taking the ball before absolutely getting crushed by a d-lineman
The TWO HEAD HONCHOS discuss the weather, which was incredible
Tharp on a bootleg where he got hit near the sideline, about 5 Yard gain
Tharp handing off
Gore and Clady...could/should be dominating
Coughlin drops back
