Detroit's QB at #11?
I'm guessing half the posters here, all pretty knowledgable about football, don't know who that is...

Yeah, I was really surprised at that one too. Darius Heyward Bey is up there waaay to hight as well.

I was also surprised that Phil Mickelson was #2.

I would say the majority of football fans know who Matt Stafford is.
"Elaine, you're from Baltimore, right?"
"Yes, well, Towson actually."

Yup... but I also attend UGA so I may be biased.


I'm not surprised by Stafford or Heyward Bey... you gotta take into account the huge signing bonuses they collected... wasn't Staffords something like 40 millions? He won't be that high on the list next year I just like all the guys who got multi year $100 million contracts and then fell off the face of the earth.

Did anyone check out "The International 20?"

If girls suck, then why did a girl make that list?

Idiots!

:rofl:

SuperHornet's Athletics Hall of Fame includes Jacksonville State kicker Ashley Martin, the first girl to score in a Division I football game. She kicked 3 PATs in a 2001 game for J-State.

Yes, girls do suck. Maybe not you, but they definitely do suck.
