Wally, you have my apologies. I should have appreciated your 21-5 record and not focused so much on the fact that you were particularly adept at throwing (with an extreme overhand delivery) bullets at wide receivers&#8217; feet. Stratton thinks you threw the ball over receivers heads, so once again his credibility comes into question. It is about winning, and to this day, Wally Richardson has the best winning percentage of any QB since I enrolled at Penn State.<\/p>\n<p>Further straining Stratton&#8217;s credibility is his own jersey purchases. In 1996, he bought a &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.yurasko.net\/wfy\/photos\/graphics\/homecoming98.gif\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">39<\/span><\/a>&#8221; jersey.

Now, is he one throw stones about jersey purchases?<\/p>\n<p>By the way, did you know that Wally&#8217;s younger brother <a href=\"http:\/\/www.goccusports.com\/football\/?player=2340\"><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">William Richardson<\/span><\/a>is a Coastal Carolina quarterback?<\/p>\n<p>Only <strike>Chris Bell<\/strike> <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Doug Strang<\/span> until football.
