ESPN radio ‘experts’ compare Boeckman/Pryor to Favre/Rogers

July 31, 2008

ESPN radio’s Scott Van Pelt was joined on air this afternoon by former quarterback Kirk Herbstreit and the two of them came up with the oddest analogy yet regarding Green Bay quarterback Brett Favre.

The less-than-dynamic duo compared the Packers vs. Favre situation to returning senior quarterbackTodd Boeckman and incoming freshman Terrell Pryor. They wondered if would just “give the keys” to Pryor over Boeckman (which they admitted would never happen) as Green Bay is doing with Aaron Rogers.

The differences in the two instances are so overwhelming I was stunned they were making the reach. There is enough stuff to talk about regarding Favre and OSU (despite the fact practice doesn’t start until this weekend) that there was no need to try to compare the two.

I expect better from the self-proclaimed “worldwide leader in sports.”

In case you’re having Brett Favre withdrawl, here’s a little Favre soundtrack (I apologize in advance for his belch).
