1. Calling him a former NFL QB is a stretch.

3. You know what I like about Todd M?
He was an even bigger fuck up than Ryan Leaf. Whenever one of my Raider fan buddies gives me grief about the Leaf thing, I just say two words--Todd Marinovich.

5. LOL...sorry Leaf is the biggest busts ever!
Let's go to the tale of the tape:

Marinovich Leaf

Pick 1st rd (#24) 1st rd (#2)
Trades involved? no yes, two 1st round
a 2nd round and three- time Pro Bowler
Eric Metcalf

Starts: 8 games 21 games (for SD)
$ Cost: 2 yrs & $700G per $11.25M in sb alone

Cost (realworld): Minor embarrassment Almost a complete
of having a busted Qb organizational
meltdown.

Now Marinovich wasn't all he was cracked up to be. Leaf was worse because he was so self destructive there was no telling if he was any good.
