McGloin Moves Up

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.

Many thanks to Drozz for apprising me of this move.
