    Damn! Sparty is way too banged up on the O-line and secondary but Conner Cook is a fucking stud. Indiana got way too many calls or more precisely non calls in the second half. At least they get a week off so that they can go a week without another injury.

    I can't complain about the polls this week. I thought that maybe Baylor would move into the top spot but Ohio State did enough against Penn State to hold them off. LSU is a very good team but I'm still not ready to buy into them being a top level team. They held off a good team that is without...

    OK U of M fans, the refs had nothing to do with the loss. Did Sparty get a few calls? Yes, but so did Michigan. There were at least three face guarding/pass interference calls that were missed in the second half. The targeting call you have a gripe as I don't believe that it was intentional...

    My bad. It was the second TD that they came up short and got the call anyway.

    Wow!!! What a game! Too bad it was marred by horrible officiating. There was bad calls both ways but Michigan was mugging Sparty receivers the entire game and that first TD was a gift. Who would have thought that special teams would win the game for Sparty?

    Is George Bush to Blame For 9/11?

    Yes, Bush gets the blame but so does every POTUS going back to WWII. Clinton didn't do enough to go after Bin Laden. Bush Sr. pissed off people in the way he handled the aftermath of the first Gulf War. Reagan armed what would become the Taliban and Al Qaeda. Carter pissed people off with the...

    I'm just giving up on trying to analyze this season. Three teams (Michigan, Florida and Utah) that weren't even ranked at the start of year have to be in the discussion as far as the playoffs. Ohio State and Sparty keep winning ugly but they keep winning. TCU has to come back to stay undefeated...

    I figured that they would be good but no I didn't expect this good of a start. Most of their losses last year were not being able to stay with teams in the fourth quarter. At the start of the year I would have said Wildcats by 10 but right now I think it's a toss up.

    Yes. Bama also lost to a team that tumbled to 14 in the polls. So what you have now is a win vs. 19 and a loss vs. 14. It really doesn't matter much until Nov. anyway.

    I don't know. Even I am starting to think that Michigan could come out of the Big Ten East. They have been the most impressive Big Ten team so far along with Northwestern. I do think that it's actually going to help Sparty to get out of East Lansing for a couple of weeks.

    How much of a market is it for a team that sucks? Eight times a year? It would either be an expansion team or a team that can't draw fans in the U.S. because they suck.

    Well they do have Northwestern, Sparty and Ohio State at home. I still see them losing at least two of those. Going to Minnesota is never an easy task. I still see them getting 8 wins. A lot of it will depend on how much traction these rumors about Harbaugh being one and done gets.

    It wouldn't matter. You would still have at least one inter-league series going at all times. The only way to avoid this would be to have one team from each league to take a series OFF at all times. That is not baseball. The reason they moved Houston over to the AL was same number of teams in...

    This is the reason that polls shouldn't be done until October. At least wait until after the fourth week. The top ten is going to get shuffled around big time. If Mizzou and Auburn don't both get dropped out of the top 25 I call bullshit. If I had to do a top 5 right now I would go 1: TCU 2...

    Is it wise to date a girl who has kids?

    It's a fine line. My best advise if you should decide to pursue it is to leave the kids out of it as much as possible. Once you see if it's got a chance to work then you can work into the whole family dynamic. You have to decide if she is worth the work. Remember, if you get serious with her...

    I'll tell you one thing, the kid is tough. In the second half his finger was clearly bothering him but he hung in there and made some pretty big throws. It was kind of funny seeing the Ducks having 13 and 14 play drives then watching Sparty come down and score on three plays. The one thing...
