Blogtoberfest: defending you from tigers like big strong Russian should.

The use of parachutes to put mascots and/or gameballs into stadiums has now gone too far. (Via The Sporting Blog. )

The reason it has gone too far should be obvious: a mascot will get tangled in some lines, then they'll fall, then they'll catch on fire, then they'll get attacked by the live mascot, and it will all end badly. And our first reaction will be to laugh, thus punching another hole in our ticket to hell, and it will all be your fault, skydiving mascot bastards.

We've already reserved WannstedtSouth.com. Mike Sherman promises he'll win. He just doesn't know when, or how, or against whom. But take comfort in this, Aggie fans: he promises that they will win. At least one game. Sometime in the span of his coaching career. Wait for it. Here it comes.

"I've been doing this long enough to know ... that I have complete confidence in how we do things, what we're doing, the manner in which we do them," Sherman said. "I have no doubt we will win. When that is exactly, I can't pinpoint, but I know for a fact it will happen."

Bold predictions. Bold leadership. Mike Sherman. (Mike Sherman's wardrobe brought to you by Simpson Men's Wear for the Big, Tall, and Unusually Hippy.)

Ole Miss was unusually festive this weekend, and Friends of the Program was there to document it.

Jessie Palmer's tie says nothing about his manhood. Just look at the gesture Craig James is making here for proof of that.

Wannstedt Death Watch: Commenced. By both reputable and quasi-reputable sources alike.

It is never too early to get excited about Duke football, especially if you turn him into your football Obama. Beware! He worked with Phil Fulmer for years, and is just a part of a machine like them all! He'll take multiple 51 yard field goal attempts in a game! He'll punt when he should go for it!

Wow, that story got no traction. ESPN had the story of the year late Saturday night: Hawaii's immense upset of Florida on their home field, a huge blow for mid-majors and BCS-busters everywhere. (Click for full size.)
