Idjut Analysts, Self-Correction

When I examined Hardesty, I unfortunatley relied on several draft analysts, and never dug up his stats. These idiots said he needed to prove he could catch, and I idioticly repeated this.

In his final season he caught 25 balls and had a wide reciever-like yards-per-catch average. Apparantly, the analysts also think you should catch as many passes as a wide reciever, too, before they'll admit that you can catch the damn ball.

Even as they report from mini-camp, I read about his "surprising" ability to catch the ball.

Ok an in re Colt McCoy, we all know that you have to have a strong arm to throw through the swirling winds and snow and stuff up here in the frozen north. You need guys with real strong arms, like Bill "the Rocket" Nelson, Brian "the Cannon" Sipe, Frank Ryan, Fran Tarkenton, and guys like that with real guns.

Yeah. Right.
