Who knew there were 12-year-old "pro-style" QBs.

I'll give Eric Winter some grief about it tomorrow.  He is the head of Rivals, we worked together for 6 years at DIRECTV.  He is one of those guys that pushes the envelope on this kind of stuff, so not surprising.

He and I have been talking about a piece for Cracked Sidewalks on recruiting rankings, but he knows how much I think recruiting rankings are ultimately crap and since that is his bread and butter....well let's just say we have some fun barbs over it and busting each others balls.

Eric is on the far left....we worked long enough to remember a full set of hair....but this business will kill that.  LOL

[Steve Buscemi]

Why don't you tell us the size of his jock strap?

Not my thing, but if you are into that I certainly won't judge you.  Certain things float people's boats....guy's junk size or jock size isn't one of mine.

It doesn't sound like that to me.  Are you the bro drinking the appletini or the one with a firm grasp on Eric's right butt cheek?

[BrewCity83]

Appletini?  That looks like an old fashioned to me...

I'm not in the photo.  I do have one of him, my son and I from the BCS title game between FSU and Auburn.  Would you like to know my son's jock size?

Let me guess... it's smaller than your ego.

And the crazier thing, some would say a reason European tennis players are superior is that they identify their talent even earlier.

At first I was like "WTF is Keefe talking about?!?" 

Then I noticed that I could slide the photo to the right.  Hilarious.
