Did anyone else chuckle at the Gano link when it was on the right side of the site?

“Gano brokeback against Philly”

Man…so many people last year (mostly on Twitter) were in my ear “You don’t wish you had Sanchez right now!?!?!?!?” and I repeatedly said “No, I don’t.” Where are those people now?

I’m SO glad we didn’t move up and draft him.

Absolutely, to be honest that was one of my most tense days as a Skins fan over the past 3 or 4 years

I remember how happy I was watching the draft when the Jets trade popped up.

You can thank Jason Taylor for Sanchez not being here..

That 2nd RD pick was the ammo missing to acquire the “lazy” & “coddled” player.

Good ole’ “Twinkle Toes” himself….at least he was good for something in DC.

2 Left turns : Right :: 2 dysfunctions : quality move.

what's sad is that is so true

instead of us being able to say wow that Taylor trade cost us a chance to get LeSean McCoy or some other great player, we are thankful b/c it didn’t get us a worse player than Jason Taylor.

i would hope that they would have all their electronic devices taken away from them and they were forced to live in Amish Country

what has Mark Sanchez ever done that would make any football fan say ‘Yeah i want that guy to lead my team’

An overhyped USC QB? Noooooo

That never happens!

man if the eagles really do get spags

that’ll be a great addition for them…especially with the talent they with their down linemen…he’s such a great schemer too….i think the eagles are a few solid LBs and safeties away from being a really dominant group

F*ck the Eagles.
I concur

but always good to know your enemies

Mark Sanchez is garbage.

RG3.

Is that a quote from RG3?
that would be so awesome...
Joe Gibbs = Class Act

That is all.
