Default Manziel Pro Day

This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen. Not only is the entire thing televised but President HW Bush and Governor Rick Perry were also in attendance.

It's not unusual for VIPs w/ties to a particular school to go to a pro day for an athlete from that school. George Bush's father's library/museum is on the campus of Texas A&M and Rick Perry is an alumnus.

bust. Some GM is going to lose his job over this selection and set a team back five years.

I'm not so much worried about what he can't do physically and mechanically as a QB in the NFL, because his improvisation when things break down is second to none.....but what I'd be worried about with this guy is mentally dealing with NFL and all that comes with it......he had a hard time in college with off the field BS, it will be tenfold at the next level......ON TOP OF MORE PRESSURE.

^ great point. I think the most important question is how will he handle adversity. Last season he handled it great. Before that not so well. I chalk it up to growing up.

Olbermann's take on it was hilarious.
