The search for stupid questions
By MJD
I just finished up watching the NFL Network's wire-to-wire coverage of Super Bowl media day, and if anything too crazy happened, it was never presented on the NFL airwaves.
Some guys did a little bit of dancing, and Deion Sanders got to show over and over again how cool he is, but there was nothing too out of the ordinary. The fellow in drag (pictured below, courtesy of Nick Friedell) never made the air. At least, I didn't see (s)him.
So to find a truly absurd question, we've got to go back to Monday. Pro Football Talk relays that during Kurt Warner's media session, someone asked him how it felt to "be older than both head coaches in the Super Bowl and ... how it is to play for a head coach younger than him."
And that might have been a reasonable question, if, you know, Kurt Warner wasn't 37 years old and Ken Whisenhunt wasn't 46. Warner was born in June of 1971, and Whisenhunt was born in February of 1962. I'm not a doctor or anything, but I'm pretty sure that makes Whisenhunt older.
You can judge for yourself if Warner looks even in the slightest bit like he might be Ken Whisenhunt's age. I don't see it. Whoever asked the question remains unidentified, which I think is a good thing, because I'd rather not judge a guy on his lowest moment. At least, I'd hope that was one of his lower moments.
