Sorry, but there is nothing special about this 1st Draft pick that's anymore interesting than any others in at least the last 6 years. The only difference that makes it interesting is there is a team like the Colts who have a figurehead like Peyton Manning in the center of a discussion about whether or not to hire his backup and if he can play some more.

I just realized the Packers beat the Bears four times this year. Lol

You don't know shit.

Andrew Luck is the best prospect since, probably, Peyton Manning. He's a once in a generation talent. I've been watching a bunch of Stanford this year because of how likely it is the Colts get him and I can assure you, the hype is real.

Wait, what? How about John Elway or Troy Aikman?

Sorry, I've been talking in the prospect of recent memory; anything I'm saying right now does not go back more than 6 years. I wasn't paying attention to any of this then!

Really? Because there was a better quarterback in this guy's college generation.

I'm saying that without having actually watched college football, because lol college football; but he got beat out by another QB.

I don't have to believe the hype. Andrew Luck's value is in what people are willing to trade for the pick. Thief clearly doesn't understand this and is talking out of his ass.

I want to dish the pick.

(Peyton too)

((and Tim Couch))

I'm sorry, but the Colts when in perfect position to get Luck couldn't even commit to picking him up. Regardless of the circumstances, that really makes it hard to say that there is any more excitement over this guy than anyone else. You're just a sucker who has bought into the hype. I only hope he ends up like Reggie Bush and not worse.

What the fuck are you going on about? I'm hoping we dish the pick, but it's more likely we keep both QBs. Why would what we do matter concerning my excitement towards the possible #1 pick?
