At some point in life, meeting women becomes the like finding a QB for an NFL team. You canplay the free agent market for years and years, but really you're just getting castoffs and damaged goods. Sure, some guys jump the gun and sign JaMarcus Russell only to regret it three years later and for the rest of their lives. They're probably still paying for JaMarcus Russell. You can hold out forever, not wanting to pay the big contracts in the early rounds, thinking you're gonna find Tom Brady in the 7th. But 99.5% percent of the time you wind up choosing between Reggie McNeil or James Kilian...never heard of them? It's because they suck. Free Agency is always fun, there's tons of new arms to choose from and you can always sign them to a really short-term contract, but if you're not careful you become the Miami Dolphins stuck with a stable of Matt Moore, Chad Henne, and David Garrard. Some people strike it 'rich' with a #1 pick and some people will languish with Dante Culpepper for years, and some may say fuck it and roll with a Wildcat Offense.
The key is to be careful, evaluate talent, check out the talent pool, find your quarterback, get to know their background, wonderlick, and go after the one you want...and then roll with that quarterback until your last dying breathe like Spurrier's Redskins years and Danny Wuerffel.

If you're straight up single and 26 years old, people are probably starting to think you're light in the loafers, not that there's anything wrong with that. In regards to marriage age, it depends a lot on what you do. In the business world, marriage is kind of a requirement, if you want to start climbing the corportate ladder at 26, you should get married post haste. If you are in grad school, law school, med school, then I would say marriage at or after 30 is more the norm these days.

Never ever, Ever, EVER get married because the people at work expect it, your parents expect it, or your friends all seem to be getting married. Never get married because it's the "thing to do." For that matter, nobody should stay single because it's "fashionable" either. It's this kind of thinking that makes people get divorced at 42 because, "well, shit, divorce might make me feel like myself again."

Follow up.
Tonight I'm hitting the driving range with a friend. After that I told an old fling that I'll stop by and put together a faucet for her, which will end in an easy bang. Wednseday night I have a date with a different chick. I'm OK with this.

but to perfect your analogy you really need to know your team needs.
Maybe you need presence in the huddle--a team leader. Or you let things go to shit all the time and you need someone to save the day with a miraculous play. Lots of game managers have won championships--maybe the guy who never makes the wrong play, but can't be counted on to throw the hail mary, supports your dependable running game and defense.
Maybe you're attracted to someone who had all the glory in college but has yet to prove himself at the next level--but keep in mind these guys often don't. Maybe you take a flier on a journeyman who knows the ropes but hasn't quite proved himself yet. Maybe you like'm green and moldable--less suborn, more humble, and ready to be coached. Maybe you're both at the stage when you're hungry, desperate for success.
What if your QB makes promises to the media that you'll win in the playoffs--are you ready for that pressure? Do you thrive on it or does it make you upset? What's your team culture? Blue collar or white shoe? Is your QB ready to do the dirty work (sneak, option) or is he purely a drop back passer?
