Brady Quinn Wishes He Was Still Relevant
Remember Brady Quinn? No? I didn't think so. Let me give you a quick crash course on the guy. He was the quarterback for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish for four seasons and set a copious amount of records and his name is sprinkled among some NCAA passing records. He was named to a few All-American Teams and even graced the cover of Sports Illustrated. He & Notre Dame never could win the big game, Quinn did at least take home a few awards, including a the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award for the best quarterback in the NCAA in 2006. Fast-forward to his NFL career where Quinn was drafted by the Cleveland Browns with the 22nd pick. The kid had moxie, after the Miami Dolphins passed on him with the 9th pick, he was seen saying "they'll be sorry." Well, unfortunately for Brady, the only team that was sorry were the Browns who gave him the reigns only for him to bust. In a spectacular move for the Browns, they traded the disappointing Quinn to the Denver Broncos for running-back Peyton Hillis who went on to make the Pro-Bowl with them while Quinn became a perennial back-up. This past season, Tim Tebow helped lead the Broncos to a surprising playoff berth with miraculous comebacks while Quinn watched from the sidelines. Now in the offseason, Quinn is speaking up saying that he felt it was unfair Tebow was given the starting role over him and he was upset Tebow was given more publicity in Denver than he got. He then called out Tebow for praying on the field for the cameras saying that that is something he would have done with his teammates. While Brady may have a point there, he simply sounds like someone who's trying to paint himself as the ultimate teammate while tarnishing Tebow at the same time. All in all, Quinn just sounds like an entitled brat who's throwing a hissy-fit over the fact that Tebow played well and got a chance. Here's a newsflash for Brady Quinn -- you had your chance and blew it in Cleveland. This was Tebow's first chance and he excelled. While Brady Quinn was losing every Bowl game he was in in college, Tebow was winning National Championships. Reputation proceeds you, Brady. Quinn has since apologized for his comments, which he really didn't NEED to do. He was just speaking his mind, even if he came off like a bitter douche bag.
And to wrap things up eloquently, a friend of mine, Christian Antonio aka Adoginawig puts it the only way he knows how - "tl;dr Tebow is a godfag and Quinn doesn't like it"
