The Great Hype Void: Jeff Janis chases a fickle American Dream
by The Podfather, February 25, 2016According to my patent-pending mainstream popularity algorithm, a wide receiver equivalent of the anti-Cam Newton who breaks out in story book fashion should be the darling of middle America. The physically imposing, yet pathologically humble small school wide receiver desperate to please his coaches who rises out of a sports world primordial soup should be America’s next can’t-miss football sweetheart. The seventh round draft pick from Tawas City, Michigan that few NFL scouts took seriously who then erupts on the biggest possible stage at the most critical possible time should be waved around as the personification of the America Dream.
Jeff Janis personifies the American Dream, and you hate him for it.
