At least one good thing almost came from the Sugar Bowl. Thanks for the heads up, FLP. Karma just missed him. This time. Editor's Note: You may have noticed that I've edited this post. Hey, I have a softer side. That and I don't feel like mocking a dozen posts by people who kid themselves into thinking they'd never wish death on anyone, even people that deserve it like Hitler, Bin Laden, and Jay Mariotti. (Thanks, HLS Legal Team, for the guidance.) Screw you guys. ...
Lazy Sports "Journalists"
Pete Fiutak writes words, completes sentences, embarrasses self, family.
I think Pete Fiutak was being earnest when he wrote what I'm about to share with you. Stupid, naive, pathetic, whiny, childish, hella-lame, but earnest. So we're gonna link to his "work" right here. Bold = mine. Now, onto his "work": This is not an anti-Brady Quinn or Notre Dame-hating rant. This is a why-the-awards-are-occasionally-a-fat-load-of-nothing beef. Ok. Good 'nuff for me. It's Christmas. I'll trust in the human spirit. The Unitas Award is supposed to go to the best senior ...
Rick Morrissey: I Am Soooooo Jealous of My Dog
You know how dogs can bend over and just start licking their balls? That's what Rick Morrissey wishes he could do. Because if he did, he would, because he's so into himself that A) He feels he deserves a good licking and B) He feels that only he is worthy of licking his balls. It just occurred to me that I write this making one massive presumption: Rick Morrissey has any balls. Anyway, Mr. "Love Me Some Me Long Time," has a problem with Notre Dame. And he decided to show it by having a ...
Jason Whitlock – An Ingrown Hair On the Ass of Society
Well, I knew that Jason "Oooh! Twinkies!" Whitlock was a tool, but I didn't know he was a brazen tool. Thanks to The Big Lead for pointing out that Jason "Momma Says Crisco Is A Condiment" Whitlock has Notre Dame ranked 9th in his latest AP Poll ballot. This means he has us ranked behind 2-loss teams Texas, LSU, and Oklahoma. Do not trust this man, Ladies. You'll just end up hurt, lied to, and covered in butter. ...
Is That Dung I Smell?
No. It's just Matthew Zemek of College Football News. He Who Smells Like Bad Eggs of the tribe Getsnolink writes of Quinn's worth for Heisman consideration: Let's not insult anyone's intelligence here: while, as a matter of political analysis of the real situation, Brady Quinn is indeed second to Smith in the Heisman race, it is also true that in a non-political assessment of raw football merits, Quinn hasn't done a fraction of what other Heisman contenders have done in 2006... not yet, ...
ESPN’s Todd McSucks Continues the Madness
Here is Todd McLame's take on the Heisman race to date, focusing in on his #1 and #2 Smith and Quinn, respectively: 1. Troy Smith, QB, Ohio State Troy Smith had his worst showing of the season in a near miss versus Illinois two weeks ago, but he recovered nicely with a four-touchdown outing in the Buckeyes' drubbing of Northwestern on Saturday. Some argue against Smith because Ohio State's schedule wasn't overly difficult and because Smith's numbers are short of exceptional. I completely ...
Fox Sports: “Hey, ESPN, Think You Can Out-Stupid Us? We Got Moneypenny!”
Fox Sports is letting the interns do the writing again. This time, the intern's name is Eric Moneypenny (He get's no link because he's about as intelligent as a dirty diaper). That myspace purchase must be cutting into their budget for quality writers, because this is about as bad as it gets. Notre Dame The Fighting Irish won convincingly over Air Force, 39-17. We'll shoot 'em 25 style points for that. However, the game was televised on CSTV, not NBC, meaning that roughly 20,000 Notre Dame ...
Dear Chris Fowler, Why Are You So Stupid?
Chris Fowler, also known as "the guy who knows so little about football that he leaves the analysis to Lee Corso," made a fascinating comment tonight in regards to just how good Rutgers is relative to Notre Dame. I didn't hear it, but here's what I've gathered off the ever reliable pool of information I like to call "the internet." "Rutgers destroyed Navy more than Notre Dame did." News Flash: Destroying an Academy is now a basis for judgement of worth in the BCS System. It's the little ...
The Lesser of 2 Evils – 2 Stupid, Obnoxious Evils
I'm just not sure what to do with this. Jason Whitlock moved over to AOLSports.com after being booted from Dear Leader in Sports for pointing out the obvious about a couple of his fellow ESPNers. And now The Big Lead has pointed out that the Hostess Spokesman has ripped open a can of whuppas (gets a link for this single merit) on Mitch Albom in his hysterically titled new column "Real Talk." What do we do? For whom do we cheer? This is like picking sides in the annual Miami/FSU game. ...
Mud:Pig::The Stupid:Mandel
He's at it again. In Stewie Mandel's latest power rankings (link redacted because he doesn't deserve one), which I really, really know I just shouldn't care about, Stewart Mandel has ranked ND #13 with this justification: "Good teams win games like that," Charlie Weis said of the UCLA victory. No argument here. Great teams, however, don't require miracle rallies to beat the Bruins or Michigan State, don't get outgained by Purdue, don't lead Stanford 14-3 at halftime and don't lose to 47-21 ...
