Well, this week’s DA poster boy comes courtesy of Big Dub H, who did some research and found a link to the worst QB seasons of all-time. Some stat aficionado hammered out some numbers, and they turned out to be pretty gruesome. I scanned through them quickly, but the name that stuck out was Jake Plummer. I don’t know if it was his wild facial hair, his catchy nickname, or what, but for some reason I forgot how bad Jake Plummer could be. In the first year of DA Fantasy Football, consistency has been almost impossible to come by. It makes the outcomes a bit random, but hopefully provides all the excitement of a $5 scratch ticket. Jake the Snake would have fit right in, balancing good games with outright disasters. Except in 1999. That year it was almost all disasters. Snake had 4 (that’s 1, 2, 3…4) games where his quarterback rating was below 30. It was barely over 50 for the entire year. His low point? An 11/27 4 INT performance against Miami. Rating? 13.7.

Couldn’t resist this. Yahoo tells me that Jake the Snake is now enjoying a “dream life” playing a new sport:
wait for it

handball.

how many people play handball in idaho aside from the plummer brothers? just curious.
It’s probably the best answer ever to “where are they now.”
Flash forward to 2014. Oh, Spencer Hawes? I remember him. Yeah, he’s doing great. He’s playing doubles handball in Idaho.
