When we first signed Chad Pennington in the off-season, my initial reaction was pretty much one of "here we go again." Simply put, Pennington was just another retread quarterback with an injury history. And that arm of his. Whoa nelly, Keith Jackson could throw a football harder and farther than Pennington. So my reasons seemed legit. And, as Omar Kelly admits in his blog post today, he had the same feelings about Noodles. The vibes just weren't good. But the vibes can go fuck themselves with a cactus, because they were wrong. And so was I. And, as Omar admits today, so was he. Although, I did quickly change my mind soon after we signed Pennington. Nothing that rational mulling can't solve. Plus, Mr. T approved of Pennington. So there was that.Omar tells us Pennington's work ethic and intelligence is why he's proving the doubters wrong. Pennington's study habits are second to none. And his overall leadership is something we seriously haven't seen from our QB since The Right Arm of God roamed the sidelines yelling at everybody.
And then there's this:
Homework assignments? I don't know about you, but that gets my nipples really hard. You can engrave your name and your family crest onto a diamond with my nipples. Did Brett Favre go out of his way to teach Aaron Rodgers the ins and outs of NFL quarterbacking in Green Bay? Fuck and no. And I think we can safely say that Kellen Clemens in New York is pretty much on his own. Meanwhile, here in Miami, The Robot is getting a good dose of the Pennington knowlege downloaded into his system. Awesome.For those wondering if rookie quarterback Chad Henne and second-year vet John Beck are paying attention, let me calm your anxiety and reveal that they are.
Beck said he and Henne actually get homework assignments from Pennington and gladly breaks down whatever he asks.
And then there's Chad Penninton's dreamyness. The one guy I would blow, based on who he is and how gorgeous he is, is Chad Pennington. I have no gay inclinations whatsoever except that I want to fuck Chad Pennington. Throughout the day at work, I often catch myself day dreaming about Chad Pennington. Seriously, I'm not gay in any way except that I want to totally fuck that guy right in his face. And then I want to return the favor. But I don't know. I don't think I have a shot. He's just so out of my league. Sigh.
