Oh, um, the overall attitude that values height in quarterbacks over any proven ability - to win games or to lead teams or to do anything, and thus reduces the role of the quarterback to throwing the ball... while at the same time not eradicating all the twisted entitlement of the Quarterback Mystique. So basically you just have a bunch of people who are born the right shape thinking they're due worshipping because they can throw the ball long, when in fact being a quarterback is much, much more than throwing the ball long. It's much more than athletic ability, period. But that's not what gets rewarded in the long run, so way to set an example for little football players. Awesome.
I'm probably expecting way too much from football, but, well.
