NFL Show And Tell



If you watched any of the Colts/Lions game on Thursday night, you were likely inundated with countless loops of the NFL's "Take a Player to School" campaign. The clips I was graced with featured New York Giants defensive lineman(?) Michael Strahan...similar to what can be seen here.

The clip alone is funny on many different levels considering the recent rumors that have been spread by his wife (or ex-wife, for that matter), but also in the fact that Strahan probably isn't up for the bidding given that he isn't even a "player" at this point.

This got me thinking...If I were to win this contest, and just happened to be a kid in grade school that would be eligible, who would I pick?

An obvious choice would be Rex Grossman. Bonus points if I went to school in Miami. There's always the chance that he'd ditch me to bag the teacher, so that may not work out in the end.

I could opt for someone like Willis McGahee. We all know that he's great with kids. As long as we didn't have to go back to Buffalo, this could be a go.

Not that this place gets that many readers anyways, but who would you all bring to the table? High-fives all around to anyone who replies.

(And you're all welcome for the uber-straight Strahan picture)
