The Nittany Turkey

Primarily about Penn State football, this is a tale told by idiots, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

McGloin Moves Up

Posted on October 3, 2013 Written by The Nittany Turkey

The Oakland Raiders have cleared Terrelle Pryor to start this week at QB after he had experienced concussion symptoms. His backup will be undrafted but ready former Nittany Lion Matt McGloin.

McGloin, formerly third string, moves up into the vacuum created by Matt Flynn’s free-fall from last week’s starter to digging pine splinters out of his ass and carrying a clipboard.

We live in a world of Kevin Bacon coincidences. Matt Flynn came from LSU. McGloin is bumping him out of the way. At Penn State, McGloin bumped Rob Bolden out of his way — all the way to LSU. What goes around, comes— Aw, shit, I got lost in my own logic.

Flynn didn’t impress anyone very positively in his start last week, getting sacked seven times and fumbling a couple. Sort of like a Roethlisberger performance of late, if you ask me.

Read about it here.

Many thanks to Drozz for apprising me of this move.

Whodat Turkey?

The Nittany Turkey is a retired techno-geek who thinks he knows something about Penn State football and everything else in the world. If there's a topic, we have an opinion on it, and you know what "they" say about opinions! Most of what is posted here involves a heavy dose of hip-shooting conjecture, but unlike some other blogs, we don't represent it as fact. Read More…
