"Faster than a speeding Barber. More powerful than a Loco-Manning. Able to leap tall defenders in a single bound. Look, up on the ad, It's a bird, It's a plane, 'It's Super Marques!"
Marques Colston has gone all "cover boy" on us. The Saints wide receiver is one of 3 NFL standouts featured in a new Marvel Comic inspired ad for Eastbay. Patriots Running Back Laurence Maroney, Bears Receiver Mushin Muhammad, and Colston are featured as their alter egos "The Burn," "Polar Blaze," & "The Grip."
Colston wasted no time getting his grip on the NFL. The Rookie receiver finished the 2006 season with 8 touchdowns and 70 receptions for over 1,000 yards, impressive numbers particularly since he missed a few games due to injury. When Joe Horn went down early in the season, Colston stepped in as Drew Brees' go-to-guy. Now the 7th round pick in the NFL draft will likely have fantasy footballers fighting over him as a first round receiver.
As much as we love him in black and gold, you gotta admit he looks good in green. (Doesn't it just make you want to clap your hands and sing "Hercules! Hercules!") Guess it won't be long now before the Superhero Hoochies are lining up outside training camp in their fishnets and knee-high boots....
