His hands, the ones that tightly gripped onto his son's hands as he taught him to steer a tractor, the ones that showed him how to throw a football, the ones that patted him on the back as he sat immersed in home-school studies, remain busy with a task that Doug Klein could have never imagined.

"I'm going through some photographs and I've got to finish up this project for ESPN and the Heisman," Doug said, "so I've been going through them and looking back…"

His voice trails off.

lol, wow

What you quoted was one of the worst sentences ever written in journalism history.

Also, love D. Scott, but man he's a terrible writer.

At least he can make fun of himself once in awhile, doesn't take himself too seriously.  Meanwhile the rest of the crew is out being jackoffs and throwing a fit on twitter calling people bad ksu fans

CK named one of 3 finalists.  Johnny Pud and Some defensive guy were the other two.

I do not understand why the Heisman trophy comes down to best marketing. Shouldn't the voters base it on things like stats? (I'm just spit balling here.)

We handed out band-aids, chum.  what the eff else did you want us to do?  John doesn't have room in the budget for these kinds of things.

Klein was never super flashy.  Manziel is.  Less about quality of player and more about highlight reels.

Yeah, but CK wiped his ass with johnny's football when you look at their stats against teams with a rough ridin' pulse.  They should have pimped the crap out of that cause it's relevent.

i'll get smashed, but i never saw CK as heisman worthy.  i definitely wanted and hoped he would win, but never really thought with an unbiased eye that he was the best player in the nation. i don't think johnny hatecrime is either.  it's just a really terrible year for superstar players.

despite what you've been told, the heisman rarely goes to the nation's best player.

I think that's because it's a player you watch week to week instead of just someone that you see their highlights on sportscenter but don't have the attachment to like you do a player on your team.

If that makes sense  :dunno:
