The Dangers Of The Play-Calling Screens
You know how it goes. It's a hotly contested game of Madden, or NBA Live, or, say, NCAA Football 07, and you played your ass off and you lost on a last-second touchdown and you think your buddy was sneaking looks at your plays and you threw the controller across the room and you tried to get the l...
If Only There Were A Logical Time To Drink It ...
You know, we were fully aware that the Oklahoma-Texas football rivalry — if you missed it in all the playoff business roaming around these parts, they play this weekend — was a pretty big deal, but we'd always felt it lacked the critical component of beer....
Go Wildcats!
Hey, when your team scores the game-winning touchdown, and you happen to be standing next to a cheerleader ... well, it's an exciting moment. We'll just say that....
There Are All Kinds Of Ways To Cheer For Your Team
They do some unusual things involving football down there in Texas, but this strange cheering tradition from the Texas A&M Aggie Corps might very well be the weirdest. We don't have the foggiest idea what's going on there, and we're not sure we want to know....
Ron Zook, Water Skiing
After our Illini's shocking upset victory over Michigan State on Saturday, we felt like we had no choice but to post this picture of coach Ron Zook water skiing. Weeeeee!!!!!...

Taking Down The Field Goal Posts: Outcoached By Ron Zook
• Illinois 23, Michigan State 20. It doesn't say much for the day of college football when the biggest stories of the day were a couple of close calls, and the upset of an unranked team. Illinois stole the show yesterday, knocking off Michigan State by a score of 23-20, notching their first Big Ten ...

Pucker, Pucker, Pucker
When I first downloaded this clip and started to listen to it, I saw that it was over 15 minutes long, and I thought, "Eh, it's probably not worth it." And for a couple of minutes, it wasn't. And then this guy Michigan State radio guy begins the slow rapid descent into madness....
I Can't Believe It's Not Butter
We mentioned this briefly the other day, but we figure it probably deserves its own post....
The Red Raider Weather Man
Big ups to The Wizard Of Odds (via Every Day Should Be Saturday) for unearthing this April video of embattled Texas Tech coach Mike Leach — no relation — living a lifelong dream by playing a weatherman on a local station. It's raining mud! You know, it's possible that Bob Knight isn't even the looni...
Tigers Burned Again
We generally don't condone vandalism, especially when it involves college students and fire. But you have to admit that these Auburn football fans, from last year's game between Auburn and Arkansas, were pretty much asking for it....
What Should We Do With Ann Arbor Again? And When Should We Do It?
Realize, kids, that it's entirely possible that we might have an Ohio State vs. Michigan, No. 1 vs. No. 2, battle on our hands this year. That might 40 percent of the Middle West spontaneously combust. We're very excited....
Our Teams: A Requiem In Three Acts
I. So now it can be written and known: The spinning, sprinting 12-yard sideaways rugby punts are not, in fact, a device that has come to revolutionize the sport of football. Sorry, Coach Zook. Our Illini very well might be the worst team in Division I-A, and we see no reason they wouldn't lose to Ne...
If Only He'd Have Gone Another Week!
This man's name is Fraser Babineaux, and for the last year, he has been known around these here Internets as "LSUOverUSC," a guy absolutely obsessed with proving LSU deserved the national title over USC in 2003. His site is a case study in how the Internet can drive one mad; it is so niche and so si...
Taking Down The Field Goal Posts: You Know Where You Can Plant Your Flag
• Notre Dame 40, Michigan State 37. After the game, Michigan State tailback Javon Ringer said, "Give all the credit to Notre Dame. They stepped up when they had to." Well, that's one way to say it. Maybe Notre Dame stepped up, but they couldn't have done so if Michigan State hadn't laid down. Let's ...

You know what an older gentleman, sensitive to the slow deterioration of his once-strong body, wants above all else? Wall-to-wall national coverage of his case of the shits. Thanks, ABC. - Tuffy Rhodes...
