Editor's Note: I. AM. A. FREAKING. MORON. But none of you actually read this site on Sundays anyway, so you didn't see my previous gaff on the ranking numbers. Suckers! Read this to understand what the glorious HLSTNHT25-PE actually is. Then toast those who were wise enough to procreate and spawn the creators of this… Yeah. I know. I know! First we kick you in the gnads by ranking our and your beloved Irish at #23, and then while you're laying there, stunned, we give you atomic ...

The HLS Totally Non-Homer Top 25 – Preseason Edition: #23 – The University of Notre Dame Fighting Irish
I so don't want to write this. This is actually my 4th 5th 6th attempt. The first one started off with how shocked I was to awaken and realize that we ranked Notre Dame so low. On Sunday morning. It's damn near Wednesday Thursday, and I'm still struggling with it. See, when we did the poll, we made sure to try and remove our homer hats for a day and use our thinking caps instead. And this is what it got us. Her "Loyal" Sons turns it's back on Our Mother and barely even ranks their beloved ...
The HLS Totally Non-Homer Top 25 – Preseason Edition: #24 – Texas A&M
Read this to understand what the glorious HLSTNHT25-PE actually is. Then praise the Lord for the gift of the wondrous analysis below… You all may remember last year's Texas A&M team because they managed to make Army look scary. They managed to win that game, but only because Army played stupidly in the 4th quarter. Still, the team was much improved, by the numbers over the previous few years. For one thing, the "Wrecking Crew" earned the right to even hear that term again by allowing ...
The HLS Totally Non-Homer Top 25 – Preseason Edition: #25 – Arkansas
Read this to understand what the glorious HLSTNHT25-PE actually is. Then read in awe and call out to your loved one the glorious analysis below… Sure, their fan-base is litigious and insane (not to mention the coach's wife), and their head coach seemed hell bent on running a flag-football style offense, making up plays in the dirt as they went along, but they did have a season in which they clinched the SEC West title, and no matter how stupid/weird their coach might get, they've got 2 ...
HLS Totally Non-Homer Top 25 – Preseason Edition: Also Receiving Votes…
Read this to understand what the glorious HLSTNHT25-PE actually is. Then commence gobbling up every word of our masterful analysis below... In 8th grade, I learned a difficult lesson: Not everyone wins. In my case, I learned that not everyone wins a participation trophy in pee wee football. Nope. Sometimes you have to be the one kid out of 34 who didn't get called up by the coach during the bbq banquet, handed a trophy, and plied with nice words like, "always hustled," or "best form ...
The HLS Totally Non-Homer Top 25 College Football Poll – Preseason Edition
We're extraordinarily delighted to present our newest irregularly-regular feature to the masses: The Her Loyal Sons Totally Non-Homer Top 25 College Football Poll.
