Brady Quinn Speaks at John McCain-Sarah Palin Rally
I was browsing some Cleveland Browns news sites tonight, searching for information regarding the mysterious illness that is currently hindering Kellen Winslow (click the link above to find out more), and I stumbled across an interesting little bit of news: Brady Quinn recently spoke at a Republican rally for John McCain and Sarah Palin.
John McCain was in attendance (not sure about Palin), and Brady Quinn took the microphone briefly to make a few remarks. (There is no truth to the report that Brady held out for a better microphone, and that Derek Anderson then ste
pped in and wowed the crowd with surprisingly strong and deep remarks of his own, rendering Quinn useless on the sidelines. Nope, that was just a rumor).
According to Tony Grossi of the Cleveland Plain-Dealer, Brady Quinn’s father is a Vietnam Veteran who has long been an admirer of John McCain’s. Brady was able to introduce his father to McCain while attending the event. Browns left tackle Joe Thomas also attended the McCain-Palin rally with Brady Quinn, but did not speak.
