Athletic Director Jack Swarbrick was extensively fake-quoted in this week’s Onion Sports section as a representative of the BCS in an article entitled “Cheering Fans, Thrilling NCAA Tournament Disgust BCS Officials.”
Regardless of where you stand on the bowl system it’s a funny read that paints various collegiate administrators as vampiric figures, dependent on the pain and frustration of college sports fans for sustenance. A lovely representative pseudo-quote from Swarbrick:
And the fans…urgghh…simply enjoy their teams’ triumphs or mourn their defeats. Where are the heated arguments? Where are the unsettled disputes that will fester forever?” said Swarbrick, a sheen of feverish sweat curdling on his face. “Oh, God, I think I got vomit on my tie.”
