The End of an Era

The Drew Bledsoe Era has come to a close folks. I for one, am sad. Drew, one the NFL's few class acts, will be hanging up his size 42 boots, which I think were made of lead. At least he brought us this despite being benched midway through last season.

One thing you could rely on Bledsoe for was comically woeful performances under pressure. After that interception he threw to end the game against the Eagles last October, a buddy of mine sent me a text message saying "Classic Bledsoe". My only possible response was "CLASSIC".

So, as one era ends, sadness abounds. But there is a silver lining: the Tony Romo Era! Ladies and gentleman, this is going to be cool. Let's take quick look at NFC East QBs, shall we? Jason Campbell (unproven at best), Tony Romo (mediocre talent, possibly gay), Eli Manning (mediocre talent at best, definitely gay), and Donovan McNabb (legit superstar).

Something tells me the Eagles will be holding on to this division for a while.
