:klin: Actually, I also liked Stidham in that draft. Saw him as a Jimmy G replacement that could be had on the cheap due to extenuating circumstances. He has the tools, how he fares in the NFL will come down to how he handles the pressure of being an NFl starter from a mental standpoint, imo...

Aaah, that forced, pretended laughter ... I am sure that was cool in high school, now, not so much. If you have nothing to say, it's best to say nothing. You wanna keep people guessing, not remove all doubt.

Indeed. Republican-voting, gun-packing, bible-hugging christians dominate suburban areas and ultimately shape the law of the land in southern/flyover states. Even in those states, however, the people in large(-er) urban areas tend to vote democrat.
