mostly not awesome new weekly topic


The title says it all. For my first entry, of what I am for now calling, "I hate the fact I am a lifelong Bengals fan, and can't quit them no matter how much they suck," I give you Jeff Cothran. After a nice career @ the Ohio State University where he showed flashes of athletic brilliance, the Bengals drafted him in the round. He was let go after 3 way below average seasons. He was suspended for one game by the Bengals in his final season for 2 violent alcohol related incidents in a 6 month span. He never played in the NFL again, which is hard to believe given his 3.4 yds per carry average on 57 total attempts, his 19 career catches (something he excelled @ @ OSU) or his one career TD.

stuff I've been meening to get to


- Is Edgar Sosa good enough to lead Louisville to the final four? Conventional wisdom says you need three players with NBA talent to win the NCAA's and with Earl Clark, a modern day Derrick McKey, Terrence Williams, and Samardo Samuels U of L appears to have that box checked. They have a future HOF'er head coach. College b-ball, however is a guard's game, which leads me back to Sosa. It would appear all the other pieces are in place. Does Sosa have enough game to hang with Jeff Teague or Ty Lawson?

- Come on Anheuser Busch, you're better than the horrible commercial with the two guys shamed into buying Budweiser because of the delivery guy. And how about a "Dude" commercial for the Super bowl.

- A.I. voted to the All-Star game is a joke.

- Nice article about how to get to Universal Health care in America.

- I'm not the biggest fan on the B.S. report, but if you have 27 hours to kill this one with Chuck Klosterman is great.

- My problem with Mick Cronin is he put all of his pt. guard eggs into the Cashmere Wright basket. No back-up plan @ the point. As I stated earlier College b-ball is a guard's game and if you don't have a good one, your not winning.

Duke Vitale at it again

This morning, in the car, before I could change the station to the great Steve Czaben and his show, ESPN radio was on with Dukie V. Mike and Mike asked him about the soon to be very wealthy Blake Griffin. I knew what was coming so I started counting with the thought he could not go more than 30 seconds without mentioning Tyler Hans-bro aka Big Frodo. 26 seconds later, Bingo! It's Tyler time.

Versus in Japan

Watch this. Then buy some of their stuff. Then hope that the rumor that they are to release new material this year is true.

B c S

Either give us a 32 team playoff or a New Year's Day orgy of college football.
