Quarterback

If you're a quarterback, and you hear an announcer saying something about you flying through the air like Superman, hopefully you already have enough life experience to know he's trying to make fun of you and not comment on what a great job you were doing, even if you're young.

A quarterback who doesn't listen too closely to the bullshit is more likely to get things done.

Quarterback

One year/season is not enough to know whether a guy is good for a job. If you really want a guy to commit to a team, you have to make a commitment to him, rather than threats about how he will lose his job if he doesn't do exactly what you want him to, when you want him to do it (trying to light a fire under his ass). Nobody performs better that way, and it's a waste of money/resources you could've just saved for a different quarterback, if a different quarterback was what you knew you wanted deep down all along. I guess when you have excessive amounts of money at your disposal, you feel like fucking around with it more than someone on a tighter budget.

Either somebody wanted the guy to be a quarterback before he started, or they didn't. There's no sense in fucking around with a guy's head about it when you have enough money that you don't have to fuck around with anybody's head, you could pick anybody you wanted for the job.
