The Buttfumble is pure poetry.
I am not sure that we'll ever see a play that spectacularly bad. It had everything. It was as costly as a single play can be, going from possession of the ball to a touchdown for the opposing team. It was on national television in a featured Thanksgiving game. And of course, it had the advantage that it involved a universally degraded aspect of the human anatomy, the butt -- the place from which we eliminate waste. In that one brief shining moment, Sanchez was poetically placed by destiny precisely where most fans know he belongs, being symbolically defecated from the sweaty butt of an overweight lineman (something of a redundancy.) Want proof? Within the same play he is doing precisely the opposite of his function on the field, scoring points for the other team... it is the finest proof of intelligent design one can imagine... although I suppose with the number of snaps taken by NFL quarterbacks, chance would dictate that eventually something this uniquely beautiful would happen, and would even happen on national TV.
The only way I think something could top his is if next season Sanchez' helmet gets knocked off, and exclaiming wide-mouthed in pain, is knocked directly onto a linebacker's crotch (during a fumble that is returned for a touchdown, or perhaps a pick-six.)
See? There's still a reason to watch JESTs games!
