If idiots like "Shane From Centerpoint" can get garbage on the web read, why not me? This space will be filled mostly with sports, and mainly with college football. Comments are welcome, bash my views all you want.....I care not.
Despite my love for college football, I've developed a distaste for all the "preseason predictions" that we get with spring football. It's absurd to be honest. I believe I've seen Mark May and company predict the entire season for all 119 teams and act like they have some real clue what they are talking about. One of my favorite things about preseason predictions is the ability these guys have to make statements like "with that entire offensive line returning, they have a chance to have the leagues best line" when talking about a team that was an offensive midget, primarily due to bad line play, just last season. It's like these guys show up at the ESPN studios and look at a list of "returning starters" and dont even ask the question..."Where the starters any damn good for them last year?". Do some damn research before you speak fellas. It seems like in the last 4 weeks I've come home everyday to see that "College Football Live" is on....again......in April and May. What do they have to talk about? This whole idea of breaking down spring games to tell us what is going to happen might be the dumbest thing I've heard since Jim Delany opened his mouth about fast people being stupid. Hey guys....COACHES CAN MANIPULATE THE GAMES TO LOOK ANYWAY THEY WANT. Been getting bashed in offseason because your defense was bad. Easy solution, call plays that run into the teeth of what your defense is good at. If I'm Charlie "The Hut" at Notre Dame, I set my defense in one set all game and call plays that expose every weakness in that defense so that at least for a few months I can stop hearing about how bad my offense is. If I have to sneak 4th string walk-ons in at the CB spot so Jimmy Clausen can complete a pass....I do it. ESPN...stop with the 5 days a week breakdown of scrimmage...it's absurd, it means nothing, and your analyst are so bad that they cant get things right after watching half the season, much less a scrimmage.
Lastly, we will start the college football season again with a guarantee that Kirk Herbie will prop up his Overrated State Buckeyes for a NC game......EVEN AFTER THEY LOSE TO USC!!!!! That's right folks, Kirk is already saying that cbtseciypvOSU (cant beat the sec if you played vandy - overrated state university) will have a great chance at making the NC game again if they fall to USC and then run the table. He also points out that the cbtseciypvOSU schedule is very manageable after that when you consider that Illinois lost Mendenhall and hasnt figured out what that whole "ball in the air going forward" thing is all about and Michigan will likely be horrible after losing a talented group of seniors and have about as much business running the Rich Rod spread as Hawaii would running the wishbone with Colt Brennan. That's right college football fans....we get to see the buckeyes get assaulted by USC, run the table through a weak conference, get into the national championship picture and likely get in and give us another gem of a title game if you listen to Herbie. No way this guy is playing favorites or using his podium to help his alma mater out.....Right?
