Don't ask dumb questions

From the Some Folks Just Don't Listen Dept.:

During the Patriots' media-access period, Mike Vrabel was one of six players at risers ringing the tent outside the hotel. At one point, a television reporter asked what was the dumbest question Vrabel's been asked or that he's heard.

Vrabel replied that he heard a few of the players got marriage proposals (the infamous TV Azteca wedding dress "reporter"), but to him, it "demeans the sport when you ask stupid questions" actually gave those of us in the New England media corps props for working so hard at what we do.

Then, without missing a beat, the same reporter asks, "Who's the funniest guy on the team?"

Not the dumbest question in the world, but not wondering how the Pats will shut down Bradon Jacobs, either.
