McCoy Just a Backup?
-
I love how they're already talking about the draft next year like they have some magic insight. They didn't have a clue about last year's draft, they had no freaking clue what was gonna happen in this year's draft, and in march of next year, when you're reading that mock draft by Mel Kiper AGAIN, just remember that they still don't have a clue as to what will happen in that draft no matter how many articles and mock drafts they conjure out of thin air.

Gipper, I graduated high school in 62... I must have seen every episode of the real McCoys...
BTW, the saying "The Real McCoy" came from the bootlegging days... A guy named McCoy made some kick ass hooch..Most bootleggers tried to copy his recipe but couldn't.... When you got a bottle of his stuff it was said to be the real McCoy...
Thats the honest to gods truth-----I think...........

I had a long list of family members who worked for the railroad, and I always heard to was about some oil can or something or another that was invented by a guy named McCoy. Lot's of copies were made, but the engineers wanted to be sure to get the real McCoy because it worked best.
I know somebody who makes some sweet corn liquor that is the Real McCoy.

This story is exactly that -- a story! Just like the Three Little Pigs. Michael Lombardi is a Tebow apologist and a McCoy hater. Nobody had anything negative to say about McCoy's arm until Lombardi started his drivel. Then some people climbed on the bandwagon. Lombardi does not know if he is washing or hanging out and you do yourself no favors by quoting him as your major source to confirm what you have written. Furthermore, what connections do you have to the Browns' front office that empower you to tell us what they were thinking when they drafted McCoy or what they are thinking about him now?
My guess is that you are one of those people who would gripe if you were being hanged with a new gold rope! Give the kid a chance before you crucify him. My guess is that he knows a lot more about football than you do and will wind up making you look like the north end of a southbound donkey.

It's Sunday morning and while reading the paper the history channel is airing a program about whiskey in America...
Duiring prohibition, ships would anchor about a mile offshore around New York City and small boats would travel out to the ships to purchase liquor..
This became a popular method of smuggling liquor to the states and the area became known as Rum Row....
This was all started by a captain named McCoy... McCoy dealt in only top shelf liquor... During this era, 1000's were dying from rot gut liquor as quantity (and the almighty dollar) was ahead of quality...
McCoy refused to handle anything but the best liquor available...
Hence when you were selling liquor by the shot or bottle your best advertisment was stating that your liquor was the real McCoy...
As a side note, the practice of this method of smuggling caused congress to change the one mile limit to a 3 mile limit that later, I believe, was changed again to a 7 mile limit...
Just thought I'd pass it along...
My wife, the curious one, says she's gonna google it because she's sure that other origins are possible....

Im ok with any "Real McCoy" as long as it does not refer to the German Dance band !

Well, here is a photo of the REAL McCoys. The ones involved in the feud with the Hatfields:

And here were their "playmates", the Hatfields:

He's a 3rd round QB that was taken in a weak QB class, of course he could be a career backup, but to assume he is going to be when he hasn't stepped foot in training camp is stupid.
I agree with Mudrat, this is just something to write about, nothing more.

Perfect Analysis!

it is believed the Browns will heavily scout what is expected to be, a rich quarterback draft in 2011.

There's a pole on ClevelandBrowns.com between all the rookies who's jersey will you be wearing come opening day, Colt McCoy is winning by a large margain at 50%....scary

He's a QB drafted on a team who hasn't had one in more years then I can remember.
Until some QB comes in and gets a stranglehold on the position, every new QB drafted is going to be BMOC.
