So, that’s how it is. A miserable performance at home. I told you The Zou was a lame name. Not even Baylor is intimidated by The Zou. The Tigers are in danger of dropping all its home conference games for the first time since 1994, Larry’s first year. I would say “oh hell, that’ll never happen because

Sheriff Blalock commented on the blog post Baylor Preview 2 hours, 52 minutes ago
Let’s see what the most wrong part of my post was:
Theoretically, Baylor should not be much competition. They’ve got a poor run defense, and next to no offense.
That’s pretty bad right there, but maybe worse is the next sentence:
This should be the game where the run game finally looks good.
That didn’t happen.
If the Tigers

How does Cincinnati’s losses or wins effect TCU? Cincy is in the Big East and that is still an automatic qualifier if they win out.
I think he’s saying a Cincinnati loss would push TCU into the top four, a guaranteed spot.

I was actually sick after watching this game on tape delay (driving back from Austin, watched once I got home, nearly threw up chili after seeing that horse-fucking-shit of a call).
It makes me not want to watch them at all…until we play them in the BCS title

ghostofagroundgame commented on the blog post The Most Outstanding Player in College Football 5 hours, 31 minutes ago
Suh is really, really good. He’s having an incredible first quarter.
The General commented on the blog post The Most Outstanding Player in College Football 5 hours, 37 minutes ago
1. Gerald McCoy
1a. Suh
2. Berry
3. Rolando McClainI would still put Eric Berry ahead of Thomas though Thomas may be having the best year of the two.
Huckleberry commented on the blog post The Most Outstanding Player in College Football 5 hours, 46 minutes ago
Berry is ahead of Thomas on my ballot perhaps only because I’ve watched every Earl Thomas play this year. I’ve seen a handful of missed tackles that gave up first downs. I’ve only watched Berry twice and I have yet to see him screw up.
Thomas is awesome, no doubt.
admin commented on the blog post The Most Outstanding Player in College Football 5 hours, 48 minutes ago
Huck – Compare and contrast Eric Berry an Earl Thomas.
I’ve enjoyed watching Toby Gerhart.

Oh yeah, the Oregon loss also guarantees TCU the BCS slot if Cincinnati loses for the same reason.

Oregon’s loss will help us in the computers. No chance for Boise to finish ahead of us in any of them now, IMO.

Game 6 was like watching an old Godzilla movie where Tokyo is replaced by Philadelphia. I assume Matsui’s imaginary wife will be quite pleased when Matsui brings newspaper clippings of the game into her dungeon and reads them aloud.
Go Yankees!

Easily the greatest franchise in the history of all professional sports. Though I say that without confidence when I think about obscure, Arab polo leagues that play with the severed heads of the unclean. I mean, do those guys get paid? Is one severed head polo league particularly dominant like the Yankees? I can’t say with certainty. I just don’t know.
Has anyone ever won a noodling title 27 times? I don’t want to speak out and sound absurd.

Yeah, it’s so unamerican to cycle funds into your product in order to overcome competitors. Clearly they were willing to sacrifice the Underpaid, Yet Admirably Gritty and Continued to Fight in Spite of a Flailing Organization Title for a well executed dedication to winning AL pennants and championships.
Perhaps they should go bankrupt in order to garner real respect.

Always the complaints about payroll.
And why not? It’s easy to win when you can just go out, open the checkbook and make all of the big name stars offers they can’t refuse. The joy of following sports is witnessing the triumph of strategy, discipline and tactics. That’s the reason so many fans are drawn to stories like Moneyball. It’s also the reason many of us have little to no respect for Greg Davis. There’s nothing interesting about a collection of superior athletes simply out-muscling a group of inferior athletes. The real intrigue in sports comes from evenly matched opponents (or underdogs) winning on the strength of superior intellect and training.
