re: You ever think about how weird quarterbacks are?

I think your perception is wrong these guys are much more athletic-'looking' than you think. Peyton, Rodgers, etc. You're just comparing them to guys all over the field who are required to be physical freaks by the nature of their position.
Just like baseball players. They are rarely-gifted athletes, but your perception is off because every other guy on the field is similar.
I once ran into Mike Golic. Always saw him as your run-of-the-mill fat guy. Then I shook his hand in person. I would not frick with that dude. He's a well put together man in person. Shocking really.

Granted, Aussie football is a different game, but those guys are on TV down under, and it's a physical sport. And I never thought of Montana as a big guy. But Joe was the biggest man on the field out there, and he was pushing a few of those guys around in a physical manner while running with them. At the time, I wondered what a guy like Rickey Jackson or some other linebacker would look like.
