LABOR DAY: LIFE IS NOT FAIR

Life is not, not, not fair. Two examples:

1. Michael Bush, easily the best running back in the nation, breaks his leg not during an intense, epoch-defining defeat of Miami, but during a historically significant but completely irrelevant rivalry game against Football Purgatory, Kentucky. Atrociously and naked unfairness on brazen display; file complaints with fate, slings and arrows of outrageous fortune.

2. The Crocodile Hunter, Steve Irwin, gets killed not by a crocodile--which he might have appreciated, even as it gave him the finishing death roll--but by a floppy, boneless venomous frisbee from the order Rajiformes.

So on that note, stay away from Kentucky defenders and stingrays today on a glorious Labor Day. We'll have the omnibus review up tomorrow--this whole "having things to write about" is a little overwhelming--and we'll be liveblogging the game tonight as soon as we get back from our German barbecue. (Mmm. Meat in a tube.)

Enjoy.
