Ohio State wraps up another BCS bowl, Stanford drops 55 on USC, but Michigan does nothing for another week...another disgrace...

Andre Agassi and his past

Over the last week or so, one of the hot topics in sports centers around Andre Agassi and his autobiography, Open, in which is admits his hate for the sport and his one year use of crystal meth...it seems like most sports fans don't condone Agassi's use of the illegal drug, but do respect his willingness to talk about his mistakes...

After listening to Agassi on yesterday's Dan Patrick Show, it seems like Agassi is not looking for sympathy nor forgiveness...he seems sincere in wanting to set the record straight about his past - something he did not have to do...

I will say, his wife Steffi Graf has aged well and has gotten better looking...in her prime, she came across as someone who not a feminine woman who was ice cold and mechanical...since she retired, she has become more human...

Thank You to all our Veterans


Larry Johnson deserves another shot

On Tuesday, former Kansas City Chiefs running back Larry Johnson was a guest on "The Dan Patrick Show"...Johnson talked about his issues in Kansas City...he came across as a person who has a desire to be on a winning team...I don't condone Johnson's behavior and at the age of 30-years-old, he has very little left in the tank for a running back...however, I believe Johnson deserves another opportunity and can help a team if in the right situation such as with the Steelers, Patriots, Colts, or Cowboys...listening to Johnson, I was reminded of Randy Moss and his discontent in Oakland...people, like myself, ripped Moss for his behavior on the west coast...but in the end, Moss was correct in his analysis of Oakland and has been a model citizen in New England...

Tonight will be the first big game for new Cleveland Cavalier Shaquille O'Neal...Shaq Diesel was acquired for one reason - to neutralize Dwight Howard...the Cavs take on the Magic...

The Steelers defense looks back in top form since the return of Troy Polamalu...

Is it just me or has the college football season been a bit of a disappointment this year...there seems to lack the excitement of past years...

Youngstown State University will more than likely be looking for a new head football coach after the team's lackluster performance once again with Jon Heacock as the man in charge...I'm calling it now, look for the next head coach to come from the current Ohio State staff...

I just got a feeling that South Carolina is going to give Florida a battle...

Look for Ohio State to thump Iowa especially since Stanzi is out with a foot injury...somehow, Ohio State wormed their way back into another BCS bowl...

There are only 2 individuals that I trust: 1) my dad and 2) my dog...

I watched the ending of ESPN's 30 on 30 segment about Jimmy the Greek...it was a sad ending for The Greek who had so much life in his prime...

Middleweight champion Kelly Pavlik is going to wow the hometown crowd in December as he fights another "tomato can" in Youngstown...I believe Pavlik's better days are behind him...he seems to have lost focus...

Thearon "The Pimp" Collier gets 3 huge blocks as The U rolls Virginia

The SEC gets what it wants - Florida vs. Alabama

1. Florida (9-0) - the Gators and Tide will be going at it for the SEC title once again...
2. Texas (9-0) - Longhorns can only beat themselves...they are headed to Pasadena...
3. Alabama (9-0) - Tide survives with controversial call...
4. Cincinnati (9-0) - some teams don't have 1 good QB, the Bearcats have 2...
5. Boise State (9-0) - it got a little dicey, the Blue Carpet Boys beat La Tech

6. TCU (9-0) - TCU gets Utah at home this week...the same team that ruined their chance at the Sugar Bowl last year...
7. Georgia Tech (9-1) - Tech survives...no one is talking about them...
8. Pitt (8-1) - Panthers go prime time this week against Notre Dame...this is the type of game where Wannstedt screws up...
9. Southern Cal (7-2) - ugly, ugly win at Arizona State...
10. Ohio State (8-2) - a few weeks back it looked like this team was going to the Outback Bowl...on Saturday they make it official - Pasadena bound...

11. LSU (7-2) - LSU played well, but came up short against the Tide...
12. Oregon (7-2) - typical Ducks...they win a huge game then comeback and lay an egg...a huge disappointment...
13. Iowa (8-1) - when Stanzi went down, so did their dream season...
14. Utah (8-1) - the Utes can make their move if they can upset TCU down in Waco...
15. Arizona (6-2) - the Cats got 4 games to go with three of those games on the road: Cal, Oregon, and USC...
16. Houston (8-1) - I dissed them last week...what the heck, might as well give them #16 spot...

College Football Thoughts
- Penn State played 2 good teams this season - and lost them both - at Happy Valley to boot...
- Terrelle Pryor did not have an impressive stat line, but he made the plays when needed...
- Look for Ohio State to pummel Iowa...
- Is Jon Gruden the front runner for the Notre Dame job...
- It is time for Bobby Bowden to hang it up...

Video Replay
For those of you who missed it, below is the 32 second clip of Cal running back Jahvid Best's scary fall on Saturday...

Tampa Bay's creamsicle uniforms are sweet

Say what you want, but I love Tampa Bay's old-school uniforms and helmets...

Another record falls at Michigan

When Rich Rodriguez came to Michigan less than two years ago, the Michigan faithful expected to see records shattered with his Florida Gator-like offense...well, the records have been shattered...in less than two years, the following records have fallen:

- First time in 40 years the Wolverines have lost in consecutive years to Michigan State...

- First time in 50 years the Wolverines have lost in consecutive years to Illinois...

- First time in over 40 years the Wolverines lost to Purdue in Ann Arbor...

- First time in 30 years the Wolverines missed a bowl game...

- First losing season in 40 years...

- The Wolverines are on the brink of its second straight losing season - the first since 1962 and 1963...

- The next record that must fall: the last head coach to coach the Wolverines for only two seasons happened in 1927 & 28 under Elton Wieman...current athletic director Bill Martin must make sure that record is shattered...Rich Rod must go!!!!...
