    "Whenever Kellen Clemens throws a football, he first informs the FAA to get any low-flying craft out of the area - or else be sucked into its wake."

    "For Kellen Clemens, stepping on a mine is the best cure for athlete's foot."

    "Real reason the Beatles broke up? Kellen said he preferred the Stones."

    The hyperbole this rookie has been generating here is unbelievable, on a par with all these claims about the superhuman status of Walker, Texas Ranger. Some seem to wonder why hasn't Chad retired already, knowing the K-Man has landed.

    It's true a QB chosen in the first round doesn't always pan out, but that doesn't mean one chosen in a later round will. Training camp is a galaxy far removed from the actual NFL game, and the vets are still sweating off their Christmas pudding. Writers want something new and interesting to write about, and Kellen fits their agenda. He's young, but so was Ryan Leaf. And Leaf made a bigger initial impression on the same football-pundit establishment singing about Clemens now.

    I've just about given up pushing my man Bollywood, not because I don't think he's great but because it's falling on deaf ears here. It seems Jets fans are so pessimistic the only thing they can believe in is something they can't really see.

    I hear you about Bolly. I think it is foolish to start an injured Penny behind a new line with 2 rookies. It is asking for a carreer ending injury. The line should be allowed to gel. It is just as foolish to start a rookie in similiar circumstances. You are asking to get him hurt or to destroy is fragile ego/confidence which sometimes never returns. Ramsey is too inaccurate and immobile. Brooks is accurate and mobile and he would be perfect to start behind the rookie line until it gels and it gives Penny time to further heal. While this makes sense on many levels. Unfortunately there is a 110-1 chance of it happening. But it would not be a bad thing if it did.

    It does look as if someone was on this already, in slightly different form. I didn't realize people here have been tracking his weight-lifting regimen. I'd rather have a QB with long, spindly arms or fast feet myself, but I'm sure by the time Kellen completes his pre-season, he will have advanced beyond any such mortal considerations and merely will the ball to magically materialize into the hands of receivers. He will have ten choices, since his mere aura will repel defensive linemen.

    Alright, now I'm getting a wee silly...

    I think it is gel, not jel. Jel seems short for Jell-O, a brand name. Gel is short for gelletin, which is the substance that turns from liquid to solid when cooled.

    Or should that be spelled "gellitan"? Correct me if I'm wrong. Anything to keep this thread going.

    Then BE silly, man! I highly recommend it! After all, it's the point. And the spice of life. :)

    ^It's actually an owl. My own little Nightowltom tribute. I didn't know him well, so using his signature seemed out of proportion to the level that I did know him (I do think it's wonderful how lots of folks are doing that, though, so please don't anyone take offense to that - it's how I feel as to myself, not as to anyone else). Still, I felt - feel - very, very badly, and enjoyed his contributions very much. Thought I'd carry it there for a while in his memory. We had some great Fat Parcells and BB dialogues.

    Back to silliness...

    So, yeah, this Kellen Winslow guy. I...what? Clemens. Right.

    I thought that was a Patriot in his moon, but of course you have the right idea because you get across the whole concept. He was a great poster, and will make it tough to insult Pats fans for a while.

    Don't get your Kellens confused. Kellen Winslow was the guy who did those funny sounds in the "Police Academy" movies.

    Of course (slaps forehead)! Kellen Winslow the II. Kellen Winslow, Jr., who knows who the hell that guy is, anyway. Him, he probably wouldn't pop a wheelie, though.

    Back to Kellen Clemens. That guy, he ain't so great. Could he sit atop my birthday cake and strike a pose, like this? Could he scrape his fingernails through the frosting in controlled rage as the JETS are tanking, like THIS?

    I didn't think so.

    I take it that ceramic work is from your personal collection. Most impressive. If that bulge in his pants was any bigger, I would think he was Kellen Clemens.

    That didn't work for Larry David. Why should it for you?
