We blow.

The ACC has 8 bowl teams... that means four teams didn't make it. Three teams from North Carolina. Yes, we rock.

At least we have the 1AA Champion

The reason why they allow euthanasia in Oregon.

Now add this to the above unis:

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

I don't understand this trend;

TV shows about TV shows. Who the hell came up with this ingenious idea? I mean, hell, NBC booted off their comedy season with two sitcoms about piecing together sketch comedy shows, 30 rock and whatever the hell the dude from Friends' show is called. And a bit down the Friends connection is Lisa Kudrow's mock-reality HBO show about an actress making a TV show, which may or may not be canned by the time you read this.

Another odd trend that has created some great shows is the current fascination with mock documentary, which has given us gems like the Office and Arrested Development... two of the best written comedies in recent memory.

While on the subject, fuck Fox. Let's pump all our resources into draining Family Guy for every last cent we can muster. Fox's "don't draw it, we ain't laughin" stance on comedy is really killing me. Who in the fuck was convinced that "American Dad" is too valuable to pass up for AD? If Fox kicked in my door and gave me a million dollars to laugh at this show, I'd wake up from my stupor based coma and hang myself for missing my one shot at being a millionaire. Fox probably spent about $12 advertising AD in three years and in turn won credible television awards, but no, we must hang on to that horrible Michael Rappaport sitcom about a mildly dysfunctional white, irish family. Original idea guys.

and HBO, don't get rid of Jeremy Piven. He is Entourage.

I want to dropkick Mike Patrick in the ovaries.

My hatred for Josh McRoberts grows and grows everyday. I am here to tell you, it has reached an all-time high. Tonight, I watched Kent State have players drop 30 points, block several shots and gets a nods up from the announcers. Now everything was good. Kent State was doing well.

Suddenly, McRoberts pulls up and misses a 6 foot jumpshot. Mike Patrick offers up this wisdom "Nice job pulling up by McRoberts, but he missed it." What the hell does that mean? He missed the shot, what's so great about pulling up? Okay, that upsets me, but whatever.

"You have to appreciate McRoberts ability to dominate a game."
"You have to respect McRoberts passing ability, so they're hesitant to double down"
"McRoberts saw a lane and was able to drive the lane being an above average ball handler."
"This is a turning point for McRoberts. He's stepped it up big today and I expect him to continue playing at this level."
"McRoberts needs to know how good he is and bring this to the table every night."

He's playing against fucking Kent State!!!!

I hope Gonzaga eats your shit for lunch.
I cannot wait for Brenden Wright to expose you when you go to Carolina.

I will not pull for Duke in any circumstance at all this year. I don't care who they play.

Train Rex

Rex Grossman still sucks. Can't wait for Sean Salisbury to tell us all Rex is getting his game together and all that bullshit, because he finally managed to not look like a complete piece of shit against a bad defense. Bravo on your 200 yards passing, really. Luckily, the special teams took off any pressure needed to perform. Nevermind that his two longest completions were thrown a combined 5 yards down the field.

So congratulations for not fucking up and tricking ESPN into calling you a Super Bowl Team. I'm sure he'll get plenty of more playoff quality challenges down the road when they play Tampa Bay, Detroit and Green Bay, who combine for a gawdy 10-29.

And also, thank you to other universities in Florida for providing another top notch quarterback in Chris Weinke. When you miss a tight end by 4 yards on a button hook, you should have your Heisman revoked. The very same Heisman he won the year he led his team to a 13-2 (not even a typo) defeat in the national title game. Thank you, cause now one of the more talented teams in the NFC must beat Pittsburgh, Atlanta and New Orleans to make it to the playoffs. It's only the defending super bowl champs, Michael Vick and the team that just obliterated another top NFC team.

Good luck Tim Tebow and Chris Leak. You're in GREAT company.
