The Ole Quarter Mile

HRB would go ahead and give Brady Quinn a pride sticker for his gargantuan performance against the Cougars of BYU, but alas, we're violently against them. Instead, we're giving our equivalent: a bottle of scotch and a carton of Marlboro Reds. Great job, Brady, you've done Deano proud.

It might be hard to wrap your head around how dominating it is to rack up a quarter mile of passing yardage. To fully grasp the magnitude of this 467 yard outing, here's a little picture and table to peruse and mull over.

1Taipei 101, Taipei, Taiwan1470 feet
2Sears Tower, Chicago, IL1450 feet
3Brady Quinn, 10/22/20051401 feet
4Empire State Building, New York, NY1250 feet
5Petronas Towers, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia1241 feet

And Brady did it without any spires or antennas.
