It's a strange week to be Jared Lorenzen. He's happy to be at the Super Bowl, but he realizes that if he actually gets to play in the game as the third-string quarterback, things will have gone terribily wrong for his team.
Still, the hefty hurler said he'd much rather win a championship than actually play in one. At least this year. Besides, he said, where else could he be and have a reporter from Fox News come up to him and ask about the presidential campaign? (Jared's an Obama Backer, by the way)
Lorenzen also said that the only change he's seen in Eli Manning lately is that he's more of a prankster. He said he and Eli managed to dye the shoes of some of the offensive linemen purple so they would come off the plane yesterday wearing bright footwear.
Not sure if anyone noticed the prank of not. I guess if it's not a walking boot, no one really notices around here.
