Ted Ginn is Like Jesus, if Jesus Were Whale Poop

ted ginn

Ted Ginn Jr. made himself truly useful for perhaps the first time as a pro last week, returning two kickoffs for touchdowns of 100 yards or more in Miami’s 30-25 win over the Jets.↵
↵
↵Whereas some see glimmers of production in what has otherwise↵been a squandered career, others see the divine. Okay, maybe just Dolphins offensive↵coordinator Dan Henning, who felt it apt to liken Ginn’s career travails to↵those of Jesus.↵
↵
↵↵⇥“Wasn’t that marvelous? You know, in the Bible, on Palm↵⇥Sunday they threw flowers and garlands at the Good Lord and then on Friday,↵⇥they picked him up, beat the s@$* out of him, crucified him, and in this league↵⇥they give us seven days – only gave him five.
↵⇥
↵⇥“So we go back three or four↵⇥weeks ago and Teddy was a hero after the first Jet game, he was a goat after↵⇥New Orleans and now he’s a hero again. I can’t wait to see the next chapter of↵⇥this and who decides that.” ↵↵I’m not up on my theology, but I don’t seem to recall Jesus↵being a highly touted first-round draft pick out of Ohio State. In fact, now↵that I think about it, I think Jesus went undrafted. What a pick-up he was.
↵
↵The Hanning off-putting comparisons weren’t done yet, as Ginn is↵also compared to ordure of whale. Yum.
↵
↵↵⇥“To me, there can be no better human story than what↵⇥happened last week around here and what Teddy was able to come up with. You can↵⇥take anything that happened in that game, that was the best feeling for me to↵⇥see him come out of that. He had to be lower than whale defecation, and that’s↵⇥at the bottom of the ocean. You know what I mean.”↵↵↵I think there was actually something in the Bible about a whale,↵however. Just not that.↵
