Oh. He was injured.
McCarron dealt with a toe injury that lingered throughout the season and had what UA coach Nick Saban labeled “shoulder fatigue†on top of dealing with a sore hamstring he sustained against Tennessee. Understandably, McCarron wouldn’t want to essentially work out for all 32 NFL teams if he wasn’t fully healthy.
It was clear McCarron wasn’t fully healthy towards the end of the season, and he took just partial reps during the media availability portion of practices at the Sugar Bowl. But the timing of his announcement explaining his decision to opt out of the Senior Bowl bewildered some.
Of course McCarron could always argue his three years of game film should be enough to prove his ability. He won 36 games as a starter and set several school passing records along the way.
Fairly or unfairly, he was saddled with the title “game manager†despite plenty of evidence to the contrary, McCarron proponents say.
Okay, first? How do you get "shoulder fatigue" when you NEVER throw a ball that travels more than about 35 yards, 95% of the throws you make only go five to ten yards max and you only throw the ball about 12 times a half? Are you shitting me? Shoulder fatigue? My god, I throw the tennis ball to my dog more times than that a day -- and usually farther than that douche ever throws a football. I got shoulder fatigue I guess.
And second? To whom was it "clear" that this douche wasn't healthy? His homo toe didn't have any problems running down the field doing the airplane at Jordan Hare after they scored. He didn't have any issues waddling his pedo-family ass off the field in a big hurry before Davis even got to the end zone. Not healthy? My ass.
I hated McGinger. Thought he was the worst. This dopey douche is the combination of the worst of McGinger and Sanctimonious Barker.
