did anyone see the Iowa-Ohio State game? OSU looks pretty tough, and Gonzalez looked amazing! he had 2 TD catches among other stats, but one of his TDs was incredible.
he ran a slant, caught the ball, reversed field, broke a tackle, juked a defender, then sprinted down the sideline, and dove into the endzone. an amazing play!
afterwards, Herbstreet said that was "all effort" by Gonzalez. in fact, he mentioned "effort" three times and "determination" once, but nary a time did he mention "athletic ability" or "speed." hmmm...
after the commercial break, one of the other announcers said "I would pay to see a race between Ted Ginn and Anthony Gonzalez. That would be one heck of a race."
to which, Herbstreet followed up with, "His coaches and teammates will tell you that Gonzalez is faster than Ginn, no doubt about it. But I can't imagine
anyone being faster than Ted Ginn!"
WTF!!!
quit inhaling his crotch for a second and take a reality check. if you don't believe what his coaches and teammates say, then what the hell will it take to convince you?
I can't imagine anyone being faster than Ted Ginn? i'm guessing Herby knows whether or not Ginn's goober tastes like cotton candy, because he's been slobbering on it all season. GIVE ME A BREAK!
soon thereafter, Herbstreet followed up with more Ginn worship to ensure that no one thought
he had said Gonzalez was fast... "Now I didn't say that he was faster. In my mind, Ginn has to be the fastest player in football."
well, guess what? he's not even the fastest player on his team! it's a funny thing about facts, they seem to crop up at the most inopportune times.
Gonzalez last year against Iowa.
as an aside, Iowa cornerback Adam Shada looked very good in this game. they almost never challenged him, instead picking on the opposing corner throughout the game.
