EDSBS LIVE! HOT NOT HOT SHOW
What: EDSBS LIVE online radio Click that or the banner thingy to your right to listen…because Ragin Cajun Rebel is our co-host tonight while Peter Bean is taking “a German holiday” in Paris and looking to become the second Texan to make France its bitch. And unlike Lance Armstrong, Peter can do all the doping he wants.
Where: At NowLive, where you can chat with each other and the show hosts throughout the broadcast in the online forum (which has gotten damn lively). To phone in to the show, just call (310) 984-7600.
What: Tonight’s special guest is…Johnny Hangover! Actually, it will be Ragin Cajun Rebel, our anchor leg guest who will kindly fill in for Peter tonight. Expect…SPICE, since we will be appropriately discussing what’s going to be hot and not hot for 2007 in college football.
Four Questions: As always, our four questions for the night.
1. OMG What’s hoTT? We say the Mike Leach offense, which after years of skepticism is slowly sinking into programs in desperate need of offensive life (Baylor, Arizona, etc.)
We’ll also say the WAC, since writers can now name TWO whole teams of substance from the conference after Hawaii beat the daylights out of a hobbled ASU team in the Sheraton Hawaii Bowl last year.
2. OMG What is soooo not hooooottttttt? Notre Dame, year three of Robot Geniushood: new quarterback, new-look defense, less offensive fireworks=grumbles grumbles grumbles. Plus departure of fabulously ab’d Brady Quinn instantly earns unhottness votes, since you’re replacing a circuit boy with Gel Cadet Clausen and company.
3. Call your hot boomlet right now. By this, we mean trendspot on the far edge of reality. We’re calling the hubbub surrounding Auburn/Alabama and buying stocks now. It’s been a down-cycle for the Iron Bowl; invest now and your hype shares are sure to blossom into massive profits.
Also dibs on any rivalry game Stanford plays this year, where hype points will skyrocket pending Jim “I BOW TO NO MAN” Harbaugh’s pregame taunting of opponent.
4. Pick your trend for 2007. Peter O’Toole drunk jokes, though those never really go out of style. Actually, and we mean this seriously–short shorts and pulled up socks rearing their ugly head in hipster quarters around the nation. Prepare to see more of your hip cousin’s inner thigh than you ever really wanted to see, junior.
See you tonight.

Well done tonight lads. Swindle you were outstanding as always. I never thought I would live to hear another cackle as wonderfully epic as my 92 year old grandmothers, but damn if yours isn’t close, both in sound, pitch, and general awesomeness. Hearing it puts a mondo smile on my face every time.
And RCR, mon ami cajon- tres bon aujourd hui- magnifique mon frere! Fantastic debut.
IF RCR isn’t doubling up next week, then I nominate TCOAN as next week’s co-host. Would be great success.
On the walk home after work I was dreaming/hoping of a parallel universe where 40 astrophysicists hijack the message board of Bobbi Blowjob’s internet radio show and piss everyone off with jargon from their world. Dare to dream…

Epic.
That picture should get it’s own motherfucking siren.
In fact, that picture itself should be the visual representation of the motherfucking siren, and every time a motherfucking siren is given that photo should take over the entire screen of the message board and probably flash on and off for effect.

I was listening to the podcast on the way to work; I can’t tell you how happy it makes me that Ragin Cajun Rebel is an attorney at law.

“Ah, the magic of unchecked homerism–I read #19’s third answer and was honestly taken aback for a minute before it dawned on me there might be folks who don’t view Third Saturday In October as the be-all end-all of games already.” – Holly
Holly, IF those people exist (which I doubt), I’m putting them on my Dead-To-Me Board.

This is the first and only year Weis and ND gets a pass due to Willingham. Willingham recruited OK the first year and a half (those players are pretty much all gone) while he mailed in the rest of the time. That lack of depth is what is facing the Irish now. Therefore a lot of freshman and sophs will see action this year.
If ND goes 8-4 I will be pretty happy. 7-5 I won’t be disappointed with. I do think there is more than enough talent there to be be better than 6-6 though. Weis doesn’t deserve a pass if ND goes 6-6 or worse.
If I was a betting man, I would bet ND goes 8-4 this year with wins against Georgia Tech, Penn State, Michigan State, Purdue, Stanford, Duke, Navy, and Air Force and losses to Michigan, Boston College, USC, and UCLA. Although I would not be shocked if the Penn State, Georgia Tech, or BC games went the other way.

Of course Weis deserves a pass this season, it’s not like Bob Stoops, Urban Meyer, or Pete Carroll could do anything in their first three years. Did any of them manage to beat a top 20 team in that amount of time?
