The middle school basketball coach just finished spouting out an intricate play and you are so thankful you are in the second group, because you weren't listening.

You are on the price is right and the guy bidding first is so excited he thinks the Chevy Volt and trip to the Bahamas is $40,000, so you, bidding second, bid 1.

For #1, you are satisfied with a roadside tree, but for #2, you need the private bathroom on the edge of the house equipped with magazines and a vent fan. An arm arrives, unbroken and you call your wife or friends to view in amazement. There is glory in #2.

As the sports world watches, for once, the Redskins are sitting in the catbird seat at #2. If Luck falls to us then great. If the Colts stay with who they decided on in 2010, then RG3 comes to Washington. Either way, it is a glorious time. I researched the #2 drafts of all time and compared them with the #1 drafts and determined there is no evidence to prove #1 is better than #2. Yes there have been some great #1's, just as there have been some #1 bust. On the same token there have been as many #2 standouts as there have been #2 bust.

Both QB's are unproven in the NFL, so both are still a crap-shoot. However, I think the Redskins are better prepared to receive either QB. While the media hates on Redskin nation, everyone concedes that Washington has much more to offer than the Colts. The last several years, Peyton Manning compensated for the lack of talent in Indy, which came to light this past season.

So, get out the toilet paper (Costco style, as IH8 would say) and get some good magazines. Come 2012-13 season, hopefully what we glory in, is not a turd.
