The Real Question

Is Riley Nelson feeling better today than he did last Thursday?



I think the answer is that he is better than he was last week, but it took the most embarrassing performance by a quarterback in the history of BYU football to persuade the coaches to bench him. And that brasses me off--the kid is feeling better tonight than he did last week, but he's benched tonight.



Note that this is not an argument for Nelson to play (Buddha forbid!), but rather an indictment of whoever let him play last week when he was in worse shape than he is tonight.

Well said, and that is on the coaches....
