Burrow - from crown to clown

[Elefantman]

If you lived in Louisiana, I guarantee you that in less than 30 minutes you could find at least one LSU fan who would bet you his house, wife , luxury RV and his best bird dog that LSU will go 15-0 this season. I used to live there. Some really nice folks but they somehow lose their minds when it comes to LSU football.

So all I have to do is put up $126 for equal value on that bet?

 

[NoNC4Tubs]

This statement sounds an awful lot like Tennessee fans.

Yeah, but those fans are teef-less...

No, probably only "tree fiddy".

He's going to the Browns. No one deserves that.

BENGALS. Owned by the Brown family!

I've lived here over 20 years and you are exactly right. These people absolutely lose their minds when it comes to LSU football. They also are completely obsessed with hating Alabama football.

Your polydentalnormative remark is offensive in 2020. And it marginalizes those brave individuals who are gingivitus-positive.

It is amazing how Joe Burrow. Managed his descent so quickly. Bad advice will do it every time. Joe is a very good Quarterback, but I have to wonder if he's following the career path of Johnny Manzel out of football.
Face it... Johnny and Tanya Hardin probably will not improve sales of the product.
(They both need to ditch the Red suits too)

Did I miss something???

Apparently we both did

Now, his hand size is being questioned by the NFL. His measure 9" even, smaller than Kyler Murray's. Tua, OTOH, measures 9 7/8", almost a full inch larger...

 

[CoastGhost]

He gets his moment in the sun. That is how it works. We'll see how he does in whatever hellhole drafts him. Meanwhile, LSWho will be back to normal next year.

Actually Tua's left hand measured at 10" -- his right was 9 ⅞". Interesting how the news reports picked up on his right hand even though he throws left-handed. LOL.

 

[BamaNation]

Hand lenghtening exercises seem appropriate for Burrow. Maybe this will help:

Is the NFL football bigger than the collegiate? If not, then what does hand size matter? If the guy was able to successfully handle the ball on the college level then why wouldn't he on the NFL level?

Here is a good article from ESPN (link below) that explains some things.

Yes the NFL football is actually slightly bigger.

Why Do the NFL and NCAA Use Different Size Footballs?

The NFL and NCAA use different size footballs in order to make the game an appropriate level of difficulty for players. NFL footballs are the largest on the market.

That article is long, but informative while also being humorous.

 

[cuda.1973]

OK, since my right hand is 9-3/8", why am I not a QB?

"Because you are only 5' 6", with your shoes on, dummy."

Thank you, Howard Beale, for that lesson in reality.
