You have to admire the commitment to civic-mindedness, history, and patriotism, but that is one ugly tattoo.

The United Football League Is Too Broke To Finish The Season

Your College Football Open Thread
Some pretty excellent options on the first weekend post-BCS rankings: noon brings LSU at Texas A&M in College Station, while the afternoon has a good-ish match-up between Texas Tech and TCU (the match-up there being, of course, between technology and Christianity), the battle of the University and t...
<em>Men's Journal</em>'s Skip Bayless Article Contains The Saddest Paragraph In Recent Memory
