Jason Whitlock has to be eating crow after his Ball State Cardinals' loss to Buffalo, but then again I'm sure if the crow were deep fried he'll have no problem with it.
Uh-Oh, less than 70 days 'til the Digital TV transition, time is running out!
"Boy, Mack Brown probably regret letting Gary Pinkel come in and snatch Chase Daniel away."
No over confident Mizzou fan in the preseason, I don't think so. Mack Brown has gone from Vince Young to Colt McCoy, I think he knows how to evaluate the most Quarterback talent.
p.s. His name is Chase Daniel, no ess
Wow, thank god the BCS didn't pick a team like Ohio St. to play an SEC team in the title game. I'm so sick of watching a team who's name starts with an O repeatedly lose bowl games yet continue to get unearned opportunities...
Story that has somehow flown under everyones radar: Michael Crabtree's roommate getting caught with 50 grams of cocaine. How have I not heard more about this? I know Crabtree has said he had no idea there was, but of course he's going to say that. Who doesn't know their roomate is walking around with 50 grams of blow? He is either (a) lying, (b) and idiot, (c) the most anti social roommate of all time, or (d) all of the above.
Poor Detroit. The auto industry is going down the crapper, the weather is awful, and the Lions may be the worst team in NFL history. Now people want to take way the cities Thanksgiving game? Talk about kicking a man while he's down.
After watching Charlie Weis at Notre Dame and Romeo Crennel in Cleveland it's going to be real tough for any overweight New England coordinator to get a good head coaching job.
Note: I didn't have to word "coaching" in my original copy. Upon further review if you take the word back out and change the whole tone of the sentence it still reads just as true.
Back to that Crabtree story, cause it really does fascinate me that much. 50 grams of cocaine in Lubbock, TX? Maybe the recession is not being felt in the plains of Lubbock, but who is running around with 50 grams of coke? Do the white trash of the Llano Estacado not realize the finical benefits of cooking their own meth?
Here is a sports argument that will cause me to shoot myself in the leg if I hear it again: "He won't do anything in the Pros." I don't care how good Tyler Hansbrough or Stephen Curry will be in the NBA, or how Tim Tebow will do in the NFL, they are great college players. With Tebow especially, people are missing one of the great college careers of all time because they are spending too much time looking for flaws. Remember people- the Heisman Trophy goes to the best college football player of the year, not the best professional prospect.
Your 2008 Missouri State Bears: New Arena, New Coach, New Attitude, Same Old Fans. Nothing against old people, I hope to be one someday, but they don't exactly pump energy into a building. For some reason or another younger people just don't seem to like going to MSU games. It's not a good look to have an enormous student section taking up the entire West end of the gym and its 3/4 empty. Seriously, you've got one of the best freshman in the country on the women's team, and a constantly improving men's team and you can't get a thousands students to walk across campus to watch it, pathetic. Oh well, hopefully attendance will be better next year when they finish the new arena...
