How to End a QB Controversy

For those of you that wanted an end to the quarterback controversy in Provo, you got it. Here is what the press would tell you about the injury:
Nelson was injured at the Florida State game, possibly after one of the eight sacks BYU QBs received in the game. Nelson had two series and did not come back the rest of the game. http://www.deseretnews.com/blog/60/10010109/Harmons-halftime-Nelson-injury-is-a-tragic-twist-in-a-strange-BYU-offensive-fall.html
We all know the statements above are a bunch of LIES. Eight sacks does not blow out a dude's shoulder. Go ask Sam Bradford. The magic number is two and he found out the hard way. Clearly if Nelson had been injured, he would have come out after the second punishing lick. But he played on, uninjured and the coach was so disgusted with his play, that he pulled him from the game. 

So Good it Hurts...
Here is the real cause of the injury. After no definitive statement from Bronco that Heaps would take over as the starting QB, a local 63 year-old Relief Society President couldn't take the pain any longer. Anyone with at least one eyeball knows Jake Heaps is the future of the program. So this inspired woman did what any good Saint of the Ultimate Days would do: She made a Jell-O casserole with a side of funeral potatoes, took it to the team hotel, delivered it to his room, handed Riley the food and while his hands were occupied, she whipped out a pair of steel nunchucks and in a matter seconds delivered six bone breaking blows to his shoulder.

Nelson was so embarrassed that he got worked over by a RS President bearing a casserole that he denied any reports of his assailant. Besides, who could believe that harmless old lady could be so brutal? I know about it because I have a cousin in the Tallahassee 2nd Ward who is friends with the ward clerk that home teaches a guy who has a friend that dates this girl that works at the hotel and saw it happen while delivering ice to one of the "genuinely" injured player's rooms.

Trust me. This was no accident. "His judgment cometh and that Right Soon." Fair warning to anyone else who wants to try a dual quarterback system.

Frankly I'm glad. Heaps played awesome last week. He's coming out of his shell and I'm excited for him to lead the Cougars for the next segment of BYU history.

I was the best thing that ever happened to Bronco. And quite frankly, I hate this blog for all the trash it talks about me.

Wow, I am truly amazed at your writing abilities. I'm sending this post to my crim law professor, so he can savor the layman's true understanding of street crime.

Five stars. (I especially love the Max Hall twist.)

Juan, I love ya man, and I love your writing. However, I will have to interject here. Nelson was not on the receiving end of 8 sacks, but 1 since he was only on the field for 2 series during the 1st quarter. In reference to the origin of the injury, the Daily Universe reports, "Nelson first sustained the injury in fall camp to his non-throwing shoulder. During the Florida State game last Saturday, Nelson re-injured his shoulder." However, like you I too believe this to be a media fabrication to cover up the facts. But unlike you, I'm pretty certain that the injury was sustained when Tom Cruise found out Nelson hadn't done his home teaching for the last 2 months and decided to open up a can on him.
