Ok I realize going through my whole blog its basically my thoughts, what Im doing, so forth. But I mean, what else do i want to blog about. I really dont have anything interesting to show anyone on the internet; I mean we all could use a laugh from a video on youtube but we can all do that on our own . i appreciate when people find something interesting and share it but usually what someone finds interesting a lot of people dont. For instance obviouly I am into college FB and I doubt a lot of people in our class follow it as much as me, or anyone at UTD for that matter but here I go doing the link thing.

If you dont read the article its about Texas Tech’s heisman candidate quarterback. In his last game against Baylor last saturday he broke his hand in nine different places in the 2nd quarter – he then finished the game 41 for 50 passing and led his team to a comeback win scoring the last 21 straight points of the game. Then sunday he had a 4 hour surgery placing 17 small pins and 2 plates into his hand and he is going to play in the teams bowl game. This to me, and to anyone who has watched a football game, is incredible.
Romo comes out for a month with a broken pinkie. This guy plays with the injury, wins the game, has surgery, and is still not missing one snap. I dont care how minor the breaks or fractures were; 17 pins and 2 plates must have been pretty bad. Quite honestly with his numbers already plus this situation where he proves his passion for the game is probably greater then any other, should win him the heisman……but it wont. Because of one game his team lost where he still threw for over 300 yards and 3 TD’s, the loss probably takes him out of the running……which is the dumbest thing ever. This guy should get something greater then the heisman. I love stories like this…….where an athlete plays through some crazy situation. Its even better when he wins the friggin game for his team.
So if I ever hear anything about how Romo uses a different delivery to throw the ball and how him sitting out is justified I am going to tell that person spreading b.s. to ask Harell what got him through the pain. I bet he will say passion for the game and for his team. Romo just wants a paycheck…..and Harrell proved that. A lot of NFL players are the same which is why you have to admire Favre. As much as I hate the guy, his endurance for pain is incredible. At least there are some true athletes out there still.
