I don’t know if Arizona’s Nick Foles is actually cute, because he’s currently playing Toledo and insisting on wearing his helmet at all times, even on the sidelines, and most of the photos I found via Google Images didn’t show his face and/or weren’t flattering. So homeboy could actually be butt ugly in real life and therefore unfit to be Cute QB of the Day, especially if I decide to turn that into a regular feature. (I just sort of came up with it 7 seconds ago, so it might end up being a one time thing. In which case I’ll be a bit annoyed if Foles is actually ugly and I wasted my one day of Cute QB on him. But I digress.)
I have hope he’ll be at least decently not-ugly because half the photos that came up when I Googled “Nick Foles” showed this dude:
This dude, for those of you who don’t watch Remember the Titans aka Arguably The Greatest Sports Film of All Time every time it’s on tv (which is frequently, trust me, I know), is Sunshine, the QB of the Titans. According to an Arizona fan site, “Nick Foles is Sunshine.” Ok then.
Why am I rambling on about a cute Pac-10 QB not named Matt Barkley? Because the Arizona-Toledo game is currently on and one of the announcers just happened to mention that Nick Foles went to NYC and Bristol with a few other Pac-10 QBs before the season, and he apparently loved all of it except “having to wear makeup.” So adorbs.
And because I do love a manly non-makeup-wearing man, I was looking for a photo of him, preferably wearing plaid and carrying an ax and a dead animal he killed with his bare hands, so I could post it with a caption about liking boys who don’t like to wear makeup.
Instead, you get Sunshine, who always looks vaguely familiar but according to imdb is not someone I would know, and who probably did wear makeup to make him that pretty.
See? The dudes behind him are amazed by the pretty. Maybe he’s born with it. But maybe it’s Maybelline.
Ohhhh hi…..
After some additional searching, I found the below shot of a helmets-off Nick Foles. Not bad. Sort of rugged, no?
