My self-imposed official cutoff for my favorite albums of the year was Thanksgiving, so I’m in the process of determining what my favorites list this year will look like. Anyway, look for that in a couple of weeks, probably mid-December. And I’ll probably post my favorite books list around the same time.
Therefore, this [...]
After the weekend games in college football, it continues to be apparent that the BCS is a joke. Despite some still defending this bogus system, more and more seem to be jumping on the “ditch the BCS/create a playoff” bandwagon.
There are probably many more I’m missing at the moment, but here are a couple [...]

This was a first for me. I’ve never before seen a penalty called for “giving him the business.” Hilarious.
Maybe Les knows how to pronounce it now . . .

Even if one owns the 14-DVD set of Monty Python’s Flying Circus (as I do), occasionally one might need a clip to share with others. While youTube is a great place to start, a co-worker sent me this page earlier today. It is even faster – cataloging all available sketch clips on youTube [...]

With the latest BCS rankings now available, West Virginia has moved up to #3, behind [...]
One year after a 10-win season (in the midst of several seasons of mediocrity or worse), Alabama fired Mike Shula last year and hired themselves a real coach. Isn’t it time for Arkansas follow suit?
Incidentally, at season’s end, Nutt’s record over the past four years will be almost identical to Shula’s four years at [...]
It’s the most wonderful time of the year.
No, I’m not talking about the rapidly approaching Christmas season. College basketball season officially tipped off this week, and it is king in my sports world.
The road the the Final Four is already off to an interesting start. With college football seeing so many early upsets [...]
College football season ended a few days ago when college basketball season began, but here’s a few things I didn’t get to mention earlier this week from the world of college football, the NFL, and the NBA.
Darren McFadden = the man. Very impressive 300+ yards put him back in the Heisman race. It [...]
