I fear that the University of California: We Have A Mascot That In All Likelihood Drives A Windowless Van Offering Children Free Candy has hit upon some new secret weapon in recruiting, fundraising and/or training. This. Cannot. Stand. We must analyze this device to reveal it's true purpose, and be prepared to top it. My instinct says that this is a response to the wildly successful Roboduck, but I suspect it's something more devious than that.

Kellen Clemens

Interview with the Jets quarterbacks. I know it's just Duck-tinted glasses, but Kellen seems like the most mature out of the three. Watch the very end for Clemens' statement on what he thinks of the Jets' possibilities with him under center.

But to my knowledge, we have never done anything as stupid as this.

Why did Roper get pulled?

The TV announcers stated that it was because he got his bell rung. I kinda doubted it--I suspected he didn't show much so Belotti pulled him--but I accepted it at face value, even though Roper seemed to be fine when he was talking to his parents on the sidelines.

But in this live blog by a Seattle PI reporter, she wrote during the third quarter that it was because of a hand injury.

Maybe just a mistake, but I get the feeling that while Costa may have been the #1, the battle for #2 wasn't really settled when he went down, and Roper was on a short leash. I just hope this doesn't lead to the coaches switching out QBs like Saturday night.
