    "...pass over the middle and it is INTERCEPTED by Shyrone Carey!!!"

    "...it's a footrace! Nobody's going to catch him! He's down at the 23!"

    "... handoff to Ali Landry..."

    Ali Landry?? I'd only be interested if she were the center and I were the QB.... Surely you mean Ali Broussard...... :rofl:


    BUT......You all forgot the most important one.....

    Hawthorne repeatedly called Ali Broussard "Ali Landry" last year. Those cliche's were my "Hawthornisms" that I expect to hear.

    Nice post. The only problem I see was:

    That's the knockout punch (Carey scores)

    Which Carey are you referring to? Shyrone is sitting this one out. :dis:

    I was trying to suggest that since E.J. Kuale (does anyone yet know how that's pronouced?) also wears #2, Hawthorne would get him confused with Shyrone Carey, somehow.
