The first words out of the mouth of Charlie Weis at his Sunday evening presser concerned the injury status of sophomore quarterback Dayne Crist. "Well, Dayne is going to get an MRI tomorrow," Weis said of the second-string QB who was 2-of-6 versus Washington State, but who did toss a 64-yard TD pass, his first, to classmate John Goodman. "We're cautiously optimistic that it's not as bad as we originally thought it was. But, you know, we're keeping our fingers crossed on that one."Although his surname is pronounced with a short "i" (as in Ruth's Chris Steakhouse ... because that was the simplest example, right), the combination of that spelling and the Catholic identity of the school that he attends has scribes and editors alike anxiously awaiting Crist's return. So to speak. One witty wag on the beat texted me Sunday as to whether the presser should begin with the query, "Body of Crist?"
