Sometimes, I forget

"What the hell quarterback, what are you doing? Throw. The. Ball! Oh, now look what happened? You get sacked. Idiot!"

"Why didn't you catch that, it was right to you?"

"Hey, you're at the goal line, try running around that dog pile of 250lbs brutes instead of trying to run through the middle of them."


Indeed, I spout these and many other play calls (or some choice expletives) while watching my sport du jour--football. I'll admit it though, sometimes, I forget just what these men are doing out there on the field. But then, pictures like this remind me of their athletic prowess:
























How Auburn running back Kenny Irons manages to gallop full steam ahead, while having little more than an iota of his big toe on the ground, amazes me. That, and his body is almost a geometrical dream of the diagonal line, literally defying the law of gravity by way of Newton's First Law.

Simply spectacular.

And that look on his face? War Eagle indeed.
