Who knew??

Rivers is an active Catholic and does a great deal of work in speaking with youth about spirituality. He states that, "I feel fortunate that I have the physical and mental tools to play the game... In turn I would like to use the popularity I have and have been given for the glory of God, to share with young people about how to be a better person - how to do things the right way." Rivers encourages youth to look to spirituality to understand that sexual intimacy should be reserved for marriage.

So...why he he not getting the media coverage? Is it maybe he is not an attention hound? That's the only difference I see in him and The Golden Calf of Bristol....except he is a much better QB.

Just do not understand the The Golden Calf of Bristol fascination.

Just a couple of reasons off the top of my head...

Rivers doesn't take the field with eye black bearing bible verses.

Rivers hasn't done an anti-abortion commercial

this and there's no need to argue that rivers is a good qb. The Golden Calf of Bristol is so fuging terrible that analysts (skip bayless) try to take an outside approach to the debate in an attempt to look smarter and garner more attention.

i don't buy in to the abstinence quote either. judging by his personality he was probably pounding mad vag at NC State

Still don't see how The Golden Calf of Bristol's an attention hound.

And, as I've said before, a lot of it comes from the subconscious american zeitgeist that encourages cheering for the underdog. No one thinks The Golden Calf of Bristol can play in the NFL, not to mention he has an unconventional (to say the least) style. So this makes a lot of people cheer for him.

But he's not an attention hound, from what I've seen.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By TD alt · Posted

      Two things: 1. Dr. Eric Eager is central to the draft process 2. I know that it was edited, but we didn't hear "Thieneman" one time, not even before the Vikings pick.

      Why would he sign here as a guard when surely someone would sign him as a tackle?  Assuming he is healthy

      Went back to watching the highlights. With a sober mind haha. Here is what I saw.    freddie needs to make 1 of those but the rest aren’t on him.    Slavin was BBBBAAAD again last night. Not sure what is going on with these game one Slavin gafs.    miller was ok but had his worst game in the playoffs so far.    nikishin was no good. His his awful turnover led to the first goal at the end of the first period that just can’t happen. ghost was beat like a drum multiple times last night, including the go-ahead goal at the end jarivs wont shoot. He is either hurt or he is struggling mentally and I think it could be a combination of both. He passed up a wide open net on the power-play only to pass it to no one and cleared it himself.     Svech played well. He is getting zero help on that line.    aho. Worst game as a pro. I mean that. He won’t shoot it, passes go to no one and turns it over repeatedly.  He did exactly what they did against Montreal game one when Miller had a turnover. Aho left his man to go help and left the golden Knight player wide open in front of Freddie.  If I was Rod, you Tell Aho when that thing hits your stick you fire it  someone needs to sit him down just him in a room and ask what’s going on. He seems soft, timid and has zero fire.   canes could have won that game   There isn’t a gap between these two teams  they are dead even   Carter Hart’s gonna get lit up in this series. We can beat that guy. the consensus last night was our defense played horrible and our stars won’t score.  clean the defense up. Tell the top line to shoot it everything and we’ll win tomorrow night.   Possibly convincingly.
