Oh, and…Amen on firing Lou Holtz! What a freakin’ idiot. He had Brady Quinn winning the Heisman last year. Did he actually watch his games?

It will just be another chance for me to tune AWAY from ESPN. I love college football, but I haven’t watched for a couple of years, and I WILL NOT WATCH COLLEGE FOOTBALL UNTIL THE BCS IS THROWN OUT, AND A PLAYOFF SYSTEM IS IN PLACE.

There is NO POINT IN WATCHING COLLEGE FOOTBALL CURRENTLY. Right now, COLLEGE FOOTBALL is a COMPLETE SLAP IN THE FACE TO ANY LOYAL FAN. Especially, the way the champion is decided. Any coach will tell you…A LOSS HELPS A TEAM…END OF STORY. Yet, in College Football, it tends to end your season. How can you tell me that teams to the likes of USC and Ohio State are #1 year in and year out. Have you seen the caliber of their competition? They HAVE NO competition. They are able to remain undefeated all year and win the title.
80% of the SEC could romp both of these teams season after season, but they never get the opportunity because they lose a couple times a year to other QUALITY SEC TEAMS.

Um, hello, you forgot the best thing ESPN could do to improve their coverage (okay, besides not grabbing their ankles to promote whichever lame game ABC is pushing that week): fire Lou Holtz before the old coot drowns some hard-working cameraman in a flood of post-senility spittle.

Heh — “beating off.”

But seriously, how do you write a post that puts “neck fat” and “Jim Donnan” in seperate sentences?

OK, I put Shelley Smith twice. Maybe there was logic in that, I don’t know….

I’ve got it! A bikini contest between Holly Rowe, Shelley Smith, Doris Burke and Shelley Smith!

Now, THAT’S excitement!

I feel old, not just because I fall outside the 18-30 target demo and am actually old, but there was a day when I’d have been so excited about a daily college football fix and that day has gone.

And I think all the bloggers of the sphere would be thrilled if ESPN stole from them if it got the WWL pointed in the right direction for their coverage.

SKLM,
Um, they already have Holly Rowe.

TCOAN,
So wearing jorts = beating the ladies off with a cane. I gotta try that.

I say throw in a weekly eating contest between Kobayashi and one of our many morbidly obese coaches.

Ixnay Dept:

Totally agree on No. 1: 1. Ixnay on weepy player profiles.

However, here are some ideas:

1) Cheerleader of the Week Profile: Any candid shots – booberage, rear end-cleavage, etc. should be a must.

2) Cheerleader Quiz Show: As an on-going bit, bring in cheerleaders and have fun with them asking them questions, such as who is the Sec of Defense and stuff. (I would love to hear the off-beat answers of the Bama babes.)

3) Announcer: Get Ms. Keibler or someone similar to do remotes from various locations. If the school sucks, at least there would be some eye candy from moi and company.

If Craig James’s involvement in the show goes any further than “Severe Beating of the Day,” color me skeptical.

Still, I share your general belief that More CFB = Good.

Reminds me of my favorite joke:

Orson is 2 hot 4 T.V. I’d be beating the ladies off with a cane.

NASCAR, eh?
Orson throws another gyroball into the matrix that defines this site (simpsons, fulmer fat jokes, college football, and cheesecake).
