Huh?

Mickey Herskowitz has a puff piece in today's Dreadful Chron on Texans' backup QB Tony Banks.

That would be career journeyman QB Tony Banks.

The guy Dallas signed to be their starter last year, and then cut before training camp even ended because they didn't like his practice habits (he had a nasty tendency to disregard his coaches and his progressions, and just throw deep every play). The guy the Cowboys deemed worse than the current mess at quarterback (Quincy Carter last season, and now Chad Hutchinson).

I'm a little surprised that Herskowitz wasn't calling Banks a mensch before the end of the column, but I guess even Tony Banks isn't as swell a guy as Andrew Fastow.

What a sad little newspaper.
