The yearly chili debate tournament known as the Crosstown Rivalry (Cincinnati representing the classic Skyline brand while Xavier speaks on behalf of Gold Star) was brought to a premature end with this brawl in the final seconds—possibly due to a third party agitator arguing on behalf of the traditional Price Hill brand of chili.

Yesterday I landed in Detroit for Thanksgiving. Our first stop upon arriving was an Italian restaurant where my wife's grandmother was celebrating her 80th birthday. I'm standing at the bar watching the the Titans-Jets game on the television and occasionally a sports fan from Michigan wonders by to see what's on the television.

In honor of BCS clarity arriving (thanks to Iowa we now know that the Big 12 will play the SEC for all the gold in Zimbabwe—that isn't already smuggled to Zurich), we bring you two striking young lasses who recently transferred from Arkansas to rejoin their daddy at Ole Miss. Meet Hailey and Hanna Nutt, the 20-year old twin daughters of Ole Miss coach Houston Nutt. To help celebrate Halloween in Oxford, the two donned football-themed costumes. Having seen Halloween in Columbia, I can't imagine what Halloween in Oxford was like. Actually, yes I can. I need to take a break now....Okay, I'm back. These are the Nutt twins according to a reader email submission that includes this line. ("P.S. Don't mention my name in any post.") These are always the best tips. On to the roundup. More »

In keeping with the theme of the day, once the ESPN Thursday night programmer took a shit and put it into his ESPN issued lunchbox (the graphic on the lunchbox was Stuart Scott's lazy eye and the eye followed you when it moved.)Anyway, then the ESPN programmer collected Lou Holtz's spit and mixed it with Doris Burke's used tampon and when he opened up the lunchbox it had turned into South Florida at Cincinnati. Score! Here's your Thursday night preview. More »
