RB Chris "Beanie" Wells (All B1G, All-American)

Todd McShay on ESPN has a video up with him and Mel Kiper debating who the best QB, RB, & WR will be in the draft this year. Kiper picked Beanie. McShay picked Knowshown Moreno over Beanie because of Moreno's instincts and "toughness", which he says is the big difference between him and Beanie. As evidence, he cited that Beanie 1) doesn't like tough hits, 2) chooses not to run over guys, 3)chooses to run out of bounds rather than pick up the extra 2-3 extra yards, and 4) doesn't love the game as much as Moreno. But his big equalizer is that Beanie is slightly more talented than Moreno. WTF?

Sounds like someone watched one game of Beanie (most likely "The Game") and suddenly became an expert. Ass clown.

Exactly what I thought. I'm thinking who is this moron who thinks Beanie isn't tough because of one play?? I think that was the only time all season I saw Beanie do that and at that point he was pretty banged up health wise. We were already dominating the game and he probably would've only got an extra yard or two by plowing Morgan :slappy:Trent anyway. I'm sure it would've drawn many cheers to truck him, but there wasn't much more to be gained on that play.

That whole conversation on ESPN just really made me mad. What a tool! Not like Beanie needs extra motivation, but dang I hope this fuels his fire even more!

This seems to be infecting a lot of the sports "experts" these days. They pretty much watch Sportcenter and develope their "analysis" based on it. Basketball's the same way. That asshat Seth Davis didn't even put Ohio State in his top 25 after they beat two top 25 teams in a span of four days (one of whom ND was #7). Things like that really expose how little they actually research the entire field. They study all the details about the top 5 teams and pretty much read the box scores for the rest. I'm sure it's pretty demanding being paid a shit ton to watch sports for a living. :roll1:

Davis "justified" his ineptness by saying that Miami was playing without their best player and that ND was playing with a "sick" Harangody.

He couldn't just be fucking honest and say that he simply forgot about Ohio State. Fucking dick.

Yeah justification is MUCH easier than admitting incompetence. He's a pecker.

somebody send him the beanie stiffarm video.....

i would put my house up in a bet that knowshown couldn't put together a highlight real like that. toughness, brute force, speed, elusiveness, agility, and punishing defenders without prejudice...its all in there.

The best thing about growing up before cable..I didn't need a talking head to tell me Jim Brown was a decent running back and that Jack Tatum could hit hard. It seems like some fans need idiots like May Alberts Mc Shay to validate their player or team. Who made them Gods anyway?
