Stop laughing.Scotty McKnight is a badass. He is short, he is slow, he is white, he has a haircut that looks like this, his name is Scotty. And he is a BAD ASS.
Behold.
* Since red-shirting in 2006, Scotty (originally a walk-on), has never missed a game. This despite suffering several injuries including a wicked concussion earlier this year.
* Scotty has caught at least one pass in every game that he has played.
* Scotty has led the team in receiving in each of the last 3 seasons.
* Three quarters of the way through is junior year, Scotty is closing in on nearly every significant CU receiving record. Including those possessed by the likes of
noted badasses Charles E. Johnson and Michael Fucking Westbrook.* Scotty rushes to the assistance of fellow students who have had serious cycling accidents.
* Scotty's dad is an undercover narcotics cop in Los Angeles.
* Scotty even recovers teammates fumbles and scores touchdowns as he did when Sumler fumbled inside the 10 against Wyoming this year.
* Scotty's best friend is Mark Sanchez who takes time out of his busy schedule as an NFL quarterback to fly to Boulder to watch Scotty play.
* Your wife is having a pretend affair with Scotty right now. With your blessing.
Simply put, Scotty is a selfless, over-achieving kid who works his ass off and performs every week. On a team where many of his team-mates and coaches make bone-headed errors every week, Scotty is a beacon of consistent excellent performance.
I think that the world would be a better place if everyone would pause each time they encounter a challenge in life and ask themselves, "What would Scotty McKnight do?" Except perhaps when they are getting a haircut.
