Title: The 75

Football Writers choose the 75th Anniversary All American Team:

It's ignorant. Actually it's beyond ignorant. 

Bo Jackson and Doak Walker are third team.  Behind Herschel, Barry Sanders, Tony Dorsett and Archie Griffin.  Bullshit. 

There's no Cam. In fact, nobody from Auburn but Bo.  No Tucker Frederickson. No Aundray. No Tracy Rocker.

And in the biggest fucking joke of all?  Barrett Fucking Jones -- a complete nobody and 90% al.com hype -- is third team OL.  I can think of sixteen dozen offensive linemen better than that waddling tub of shit.  Marcus McNeil for example.

Had Cam played another year, he likely makes the list.  But the Staubach over Tebow pick is right there in the Barrett Fucking Jones category. I understand the game has changed tremendously but damn.  Both guys basically played 3 full seasons as the starter.  Compare:

Staubach:

Passing  3,799 yards 18 TD's  20 Int's

Rushing: 635 yards 18 TD's

Tebow:

Passing  9,285 yards  88 TD's  16 Int's

Rushing  2,945 yards  57 TD's

Granted, seasons have expanded and Tebow had more games to pad the stats but....seriously?
