McDaniel is shockingly awful in impromptu roles. I think he wants to be clever but simply is not clever when he has no time to think. It's not over the top like Monty Python or wonderfully subtle like Bob Newhart. Consequently he gets stick on Um Um and more Um. The only Ummer in his league is Rory McIlroy, who opens every response with Um.
McDaniel should simply give it up and respond normally. Right now the only ones who are still mesmerized by him are the female network types like Melissa Stark or Maria Taylor. They'll gush over anything. It reminds me of when I went away to college. I quickly realized that wasn't challenging at all. Too many college girls will lap up even the most ordinary or pathetic response. Gazes when there should be nope that didn't work.
McDaniel undoubtedly experienced that at Yale and it has carried over. Low bar. You can tell he's not verbally clever via the abuse of profanity.
Regardless, he is in no jeopardy at all. How is that ever a topic? You can't get rid of a guy who has produced so many extraordinary numbers. I saw somebody here who actually attempted to claim that Waddle and Hill on the field together were Tua at his worst. Meanwhile he supplied the numbers and right there in the center was 8.2 YPA.
I wanted to mock but these days I don't get into arguments online anymore. It serves no purpose. You accept the 8.2 YPA and understand the distribution will cooperate later.
Tua will be gone before McDaniel, IMO. Or should I say Tua will be forced out before McDaniel, who may eventually decide to leave on his own. That would be high demand.
