Which NFL QB Is Your Favorite Ugly Betty Character?

by Tom on October 3rd, 2007

b5Media, who brings you this blog, is getting into sports in a big way.  Their Sports Channel has now expanded to include 24 blogs!  To celebrate, they are holding a Launch Contest.  You could win one of 7 incredible prize packages.  There is a fun scavenger hunt type game, along with a blogging game.  For more info on the contest, check it out here.

In honor of this great launch, and my love of the NFL, I offer you this list:

Which Quarterback Is Your Favorite Ugly Betty Character?

• Wilhelmina: Tom Brady.  She is very, very good at what she does.  She’s not above cheating (or acting all innocent when she gets caught).

• Daniel: Eli Manning.  He’s in his current position because his father pulled a few strings, and he has a ‘brother’ whose reputation he can never live up to.

• Bradford Meade: Brett Favre.  He’s a hundred years old, always takes the perfect slant, and is still good with his feet.

• Amanda Tanen (Tie): David Carr.  Spent most of her career on her back.  Also - Jared Lorenzen (NY Giants backup).  She (right now) weighs over 250, and nobody ever sees her doing anything.  She was once a big star in a small-time gig.

• Ignacio: Donovan McNabb.  He’s stuck in a godforsaken place, and people are trying to kill him.

• Marc: (Tie) Rex Grossman.  Much maligned, but always willing (if not able) do do what is necessary to accomplish what’s asked of him.  Not afraid to do the dirty work.  Was benched for a while.  Also: Tony Romo.  I mean, is he not the prettiest man you’ve ever seen?

• Claire: Joey Harrington.  They sent her to prison, er Atlanta, but every time she’s written off, she comes back.

• Alexis: Peyton Manning.  Because everybody knows he’s really a girl.

• Christina: Drew Brees.  She’s very, very good, but stuck in the basement.  Last year, for a short time, she had her moment to shine, but it came at a horrible cost.

• Henry:Matt Leinart.  He probably wanted to go somewhere else, but ended up in Arizona.  He’s always having to struggle with another guy for playing time.  You can tell he’s going to be very, very good one day.

• Betty: Vince Young.  She’s there because the owner insisted she be hired (and by doing so, saved a lot of jobs).  She never gets points on style, but somehow she always comes out on top.  We can’t help but cheer for her.

Well, that’s my list.  Feel free to suggest your own additions or subtractions.
