Sports By Brooks keeps it real on this blessed day of NCAA 2006’s release:
Run up the score like Steve Spurrier. Skip classes like at Tennessee. Master the five-finger discount at Florida State. If it’s in the game, it’s in the game!
A trifecta worthy of our worst caffeineated bile! Bravo!
We here at EDSBS.com are nothing if not shameless sycophants, so when we noticed a bunch of you guys coming over from www.wildwestsports.com we wanted to roll out the red carpet and invite you to stay a while, come back often and give us your best sarcastic comments. Also, if you think the site has potential if only it wasn’t so ugly… don’t worry, we are rolling out a new format any day now. So come on back.
The dream has come to an end for former Penn State quarterback Zack Mills as he is out of the World Series of Poker after the second day of competition. Check out the Boi From Troy for a nice blow by blow of Mills’ attempt at playing with the big boys, so to speak, and putting off blowing his load for a few more days.
Shabaj, who would have been a senior this season before being declared ineligable, has decided to enter the supplemental draft. Shbaj was the Spartans’ third-leading receiver in 2004 with 29 catches for 308 yards and one touchdown but was the team’s leading receiver in 2003 with 57 catches for 692 yards and five touchdowns.
Believe it or not, most people have not spent the fallow, dark period of time between early January and late August rolling out iteration after iteration of scenarios for the upcoming college football season. I know, it’s like that awful moment when you realize a friend is a drunk as he tries to order a beer at Denny’s at 9 in the morning in Beautucket, Alabama. On Sunday, no less. But it’s the truth, so go weep into the trash can for a minute if you have to, or pound your chest in pride as one of the few, the proud, etc…
Sadly, not everyone thinks about this every day.
One side effect of being so…priveleged is that we now not only have beaten most of the CFB community to the punch on establishing major storylines, we’ve actually argued them into nearly unrecognizable forms so far removed from the original form we’ve forgotten the big deal with the original completely. A great blogger case is the schism between those who believe Boise State will crush UGA at home, and those who think UGA’s going to hump some Bronco leg good-like in Athens. (Ah, our first inter-species sex metaphor. Sometimes, you just sit back and glow with pride typing the stuff.) We’ve debated it into a taffy while most college football fans have just started to crack their Athlon and Sporting News over margaritas at the pool. (Or in Beano Cook’s case, reading through them while pounding a 24-pack of Iron City beer in the frontseat of his old Chevelle in a dark, desolate parking lot somewhere in suburban Maryland, clutching his fists in a shaking rage as the 1945 Army squad “just doesn’t get the respect it deserves…”)
Beano Cook: full of rage, and just waiting for you to talk shit about Glenn Davis.
So looking back over the past few months, what can we expect Trev, Mark May, Musberger, and the others to have on their cheat sheets going into the broadcast? What easy, prefab lines can we expect our dear local AJC (which, outside of Tony Barnhart and paleo-columnist Furman Bisher, we despise) to trot out as the focus slowly begins to turn toward the college game? A few obvious choices here, along with a few we’d forgotten:
(more…)
Orson Swindle and Stranko Montana are two men pushing thirty who should know better than to run a college football blog, but evidently don't. Both graduated from the University of Florida, and both agree that college football is far too important to be left to the professionals.
