This is certifiably hilarious: Thanks to A.J. for passing it along.

Yesterday was a crazy, crazy day. So crazy. I drove over to Athens for lunch and some tailgating before driving back to Atlanta to watch the game. Scout wouldn’t have done well for the 14 or 15 hours he’d have been alone had I stayed. Speaking of Scout, his old collar (now 2+ years old) broke [...]

So USC drops one to Oregon State. ESPN provides this as a headline: Game summary or dire warning about certain kinds of contraception? You tell me.

I watched football last night and it was good. The watching, I mean, not the actual games. The games were mostly terrible. Stanford/Oregon State was good, but the rest were pretty awful. I’m headed to Bloomington tonight to eat some sushi, go out there one last time before the move to Atlanta, and take in [...]

Ladies and gentlemen, the best time of the year is upon us: football season. I’m talking about real football. College Football. Lots of games on tonight — I’m not sure which one(s) I’ll be watching. Oregon State at Stanford sounds more interesting to me than NC State at South Carolina, but the SEC fan in [...]

Tomorrow afternoon (5:30, actually), I’ll be on 730 AM The Ump out of Huntsville talking Alabama Football and pimping Yea Alabama 2008. I doubt I’ll be on for too terribly long, but it should be a good time, so if you’re in the greater Huntsville area and bored tomorrow afternoon, feel free to tune in. I’ll [...]

I’m still no Doug Hass, but my ever so subtle hint back in May that I might be a part of the book that the guys at Roll ‘Bama Roll were putting together is one step closer to reality. Maple Street Press has finally added Yea Alabama 2008 to their website and, if their article listing [...]

When Saban signed the #4 player (and #1 WR) in the country, it jumped Alabama to #1 in almost everyone’s rankings. Now, you will hear people with poor recruiting classes saying things like “Recruiting ranking doesn’t matter”, and in a very strict sense, that’s true. What does matter, though, is the quality and talent of the [...]

So today is the 25th anniversary of the death of the best college football coach ever to walk a sideline. A few years ago I wrote a little post about The Bear. Good seasons come and go, and without tradition when they go, they’re gone. Nothing more than a few faded memories and [...]

So far things are setting up nicely for a Packers/Pats Super Bowl, which would be fine by me. I’m far more of a Packers fan, and it would be great to see Favre get one more ring before he packs it in, but it’d also be cool to see a team go 19-0. In other news… [...]
