Sports Round-Up

Good afternoon,

The BBQ is packed today! We're grilling up football.

Here's what you can chat up today:

> A first in college football. The Associated Press voted defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh the AP player of the year.
> This is huge! Notice that it didn't go to the Heisman winner, which is almost always awarded to an offensive player.
> He has won 4 other awards (bear with me...these names are worth tossing around): the Outland Trophy, the Nagurski (nuh-GER-ski), the Bednarik (bed-NAR-ick) and the Lombardi Trophies. Essentially, these four awards are given to the best defensive player and best lineman. In other words, Suh was a clean sweep.
> Could Suh be the #1 pick in next year's NFL draft?
> Should he be? Why and why not? (IMHO, you've GOT to consider him up at or near the top of your draft board.)

Enjoy and thanks for reading the BBQ. We wish you and yours happy holidays!
