Freep - Asked what he thinks of Stafford in an interview on ESPN Radio (1430 AM) in Fresno, Calif., linebacker Zack Follett said the Detroit Lions' starting quarterback is “a china doll right now.”
“Stafford, good guy,” Follett said. “He’s a china doll right now. Anytime he gets hit, he goes down. But the kid is -- hopefully, it’s just patiently waiting for him, because the kid is an awesome talent. He has a tremendous arm. The throws that he makes during practice when no one can touch him, he looks like an All-American quarterback, but put him in a game, and you hit his shoulder. So hopefully, say a couple prayers, keep him healthy next year, and the Lions can do some damage in the NFC."
I'm kinda pissed. I seriously can't believe Follett didn't give me this story. Would've broke the shit out of this and put JBS on the map. ESPN probably would've even picked up my "Follett looks like Jim from American Pie" story. But nope, I'm still stuck here making wise cracks about little kids getting hit in the face.
PS - About the comment, not sure if a dude with a broken neck should be calling anyone a china doll, but you know what? I kinda see the resemblance.
