If they are going to interview Teebow they might as well let everyone have a crack at the job.

Rinse. Repeat.

All this is is a middle finger to the Eagles for their preposturous demands for McNabb. Please tell me this is a joke.

Haha... you've got to admit that the guys at UB outdid themselves with this one though... especially this little part:

Opening tryout days will include rigorous strength and conditioning drills. Following first cuts on day three, contenders will hit the field for a technique and mechanics test in throwing and pocket presence.
The field will be narrowed down to ten finalists on day eight, who will then be required to learn a standard NFL playbook and be thrown into live 7-on-7 action in full pads with the rest of the team. By the end of week two, Buffalo’s coaching staff and management will offer a two-year entry-level contract to the most impressive quarterback.
“By the end of this thing, we’re going to have our man,” Nix said. “Whether he is a former high school star, college dropout, CFL bust or Thanksgiving Day legend, we’ll be heading into the season confident in our quarterbacks.”

Watch the Bills not only find a quarterback through this non-traditional method, but find one who can hold his own in the NFL. Then, sure as the sun rises in the morning, every other team will be doing the same thing next year!

This is actually a good idea. it'll give them a larger pool of talent to work with and give 'joe lunch box' a chance to show em how it's done instead of the same cookie cutter, factory brand QBs that the NCAA keeps churning out. Ha! This would even be a good idea for a reality show if there ever was one. I could even picture Al Bundy showing up to these things...
