Fun week for 2 of the 3 first round quarterbacks from the '06 Draft. Matt Leinart continued to amaze the masses by increasing his gaudy party rating (*clever*) after hosting a gathering with drunk, horny females.
YES!
Shame on Matt Leinart for having a party at his house - especially a party at his house with
WOMEN. FOR SHAME!
At least, that's what Dan Bickley at the Arizona Republic
kinda sorta thinks:
"He probably felt like he was doing the smart thing by staying out of the nightclubs on the weekend, thus honoring his pledge to the Cardinals to keep a lower profile. And without carding at the front door, it would be nearly impossible to tell whether some of the female attendants were underage, as posted on the aforementioned Web site.... But Leinart is a single father about to turn 25. He is a starting quarterback in the NFL and the face of an entire franchise. He should not be in the same vicinity as a beer bong, much less holding one for a young girl.... the NFL is for men. Beer bongs are for drunk, stupid college kids."
I resent that last remark, Mr. Bickley, because I just pounded a couple of Natural Ice cans through the JSF Beer Bong and I feel like I could rewrite the New Testament.
And kudos to you for playing the hypothetical game, a talent often displayed by overzealous media members when they're attacking like vultures...
"Take that young girl apparently guzzling beer from a funnel device (beer bong) held by Leinart in a party picture posted on thedirty.com. What if she never made it home that night? What if she plowed through a red light after leaving the bash at Leinart's house, taking out a family in the process?
Imagine the repercussions... Now take that picture of Leinart and four young girls cuddling in a hot tub. What if one of them woke up and decided to accuse Leinart of improper conduct? What of the headlines then?"
Don't give the ladies any wise ideas, Mr. Bickley. And memo to you: it's the offseason, Matt Leinart is single and he had a 'small' party at his home - it just so happened that someone there took pictures of the gathering and they surfaced online. A mole perhaps... perhaps someone with the last name ... Bickley. Leinart can surely be accused of being an idiot for allowing people to take pictures, but that's the extent of it. Sorry.

Mr. Bickley is probably a Jay Cutler fan. Cutler
has had enough of the tomfoolery of Brandon Marshall:
"He's not my favorite person right now. I support him, but it's always something with him right now and you can't have that. It's disappointing. We wanted to get a lot of work in this summer and he was going to be a big part of that, but now it's up in the air when he's going to come back."
"I've talked with him many times. A lot of people have. I've probably talked with him more than most people. He knows he's running out of chances. This wasn't like his DUI or other stuff he's had. It was an accident, but still, stuff like that can't happen... He knows it and hopefully it's his last, but it's like I told him, 'They're going to quit giving you chances around here.' Hopefully this is the last thing we're going to hear about him for a while."
See, this is why Matt Leinart is a role model for young players entering the league. Instead of falling into televisions, making up stories about evil cheeseburger wrappers, getting DUI's and missing out on significant team preparation, Leinart is impregnating women, drinking at his house and having scantily clothed sex parties. And he's obviously proud to show his good judgment, hence the surplus of photos that surface from time to time.
Kudos to Matt for keeping his head on straight. Sure he has 13 career touchdowns and 16 interceptions, but at least he's doing it the right way.
