    Poor performance will get you demoted and de-starred.

    Like, one bad joke, or is everyone allowed a dud now and then? Isn't comedy subjective after all? Why do they give out Oscars and Emmys? You can't judge art and then say "this is the best painting of the year." Hogwash.

    It doesn't take much for a recruit to fall in love with his host and, by extension, her school.

    And this, as much as anything, explains my enrollment at the Pole Dancing Academy.

    OK, fine, but the fucking champagne better stay chilled from now on if I'm gonna have to read that red-smeared unapproved crap all day.

    How does one become a comment ninja? Is there training? Does Liam Neeson expose me to a hallucinogen?

    This practice isn't limited to sports at SEC schools. How do you think LSU convinced me to come to Baton Rouge to get my accounting degree? Because it was close to home and it was the only place I could afford to go? I don't think so*.

    *Actually, this is exactly how it happened.

    This shit goes on everywhere. A group of girls from Jezebel saw my commenting work over at Fanhouse and recruited me to come over here.

    "Commenters can be demoted for unruly or obscene posting."

    Or can they get their own columns!

    Back when I was being recruited as a light-hitting shortstop by an area community college, a sophomore pre-major handed me a Penthouse magazine and told me to do it myself.

    This is not Princeton

    I did notice a glaring lack of Cornel West hip hop albums.

    Luckily for Kansas, Mangino's love for HoHos has precluded any Hostesses being available for recruits.

    The hostesses were never given orders about what to do—remember the trust?—but they were also never told what not to do.

    Those poor girls ended up getting involved in land wars in Asia and playing poker with a guy whose first name is a city.

    ...it's time for a crash course in comments etiquette.

    "Look inside and you will see
    the comments are cutting deep inside my brain
    On they're burning quickly turning
    Hashtag words are driving me insane
    Insane, yeah!"

    Or something.
