    Sadly, Vandenberg's star turn in "Bring in 'da Poise, Bring in 'da Funk," staged last summer by the Keokuk Players in their annual Multiculti Revue, met with only a tepid critical response. #poise

    Kudos to him. Poise in Iowa usually means refraining from eating the 6th turkey leg at Thanksgiving dinner. #poise

    I'm also impressed by a kid who barely lost to the league-leading Big-10 team... the league-leader who lost at home to the 5th place team in the Pac-10, a league that will not get an at-large BCS berth.

    The handsomely-paid lobbyists and extensive political connections of Big Poise seem to be paying off. #poise

    Be careful calling him an avatar of poise; in two months that's going to mean he lost $400 million trying to be a good quarterback.

    The extreme rookie success of Ben Roethlisberger, and to a lesser extent, Joe Flaco and Vince Young has retarded the sports media into thinking rookie QBs should actually be good. They shouldn't. Rookie QBs should not be expected to take their team anywhere, let alone the fucking Super Bowl.

    Personally, I think the media has been very desirous that a USC quarterback do well. I think there's a little hope invested in Sanchez and he got a lot of credit for the performance of his team that he really didn't deserve.

    But, that's just me. #poise

    @lichnor: What do you mean, or rather, what do people mean when they say something like this:

    "Personally, I think the media has been very desirous that a USC quarterback do well."

    Who is the media? And how is it possible that they all want the same thing? #poise

    That's enough finger-pointing...the punter through an INT, too, and no one is knocking him.

    No offense, Tommy, but I can't wait until Schatz or Carroll develops a statistic that accurately measures poise and you have to eat your words. #poise

    One thing that ruins poise is when the QB admits that he has NEVER PLAYED A GAME IN WEATHER COLDER THAN 50 DEGREES. #poise

    Poise in a wildcat offense is about as useful as Robert's rules of order on Fox news.
