Miscellaneous Saturdays

Anything and everything from College sports to the Olympics to the Ryder Cup. Don't miss out on what is inevitably crazy shit that happens in this week of sports.

This week in miscellanea brings the College Football BCS rant:

How many games must Boise State win before they are taken seriously!? Time and again they have proven themselves worthy of being in the conversation, and yet they are never given a shot at the championship title (yet the last 2 BCS Bowl Games they were in they won). 

The biggest mistake that the BCS did last year was taking the two undefeated teams (Re: Boise State and TCU) and pitting them against each other while the one-loss teams battled it out for the other BCS games. They needed to break that up! Had each one of those teams played one of the major conferences in the bowl games, they both would have won and shut every single doubter up. No they have to begin from square one again. 

When push comes to shove, Boise will eventually have to be given a shot by pure reason that they simply have won so many games in a row. And when they do, the BCS will finally have to get off their high horse and realize College Football isn't an old mens club anymore. 



Recap 10/1/10
This week in sports brings us the Ryder Cup - the most pretentious of all sports competitions. This makes Wimbeldon look like trailer park badminton. Anyways, the Americans are kicking European butt, I think...? Who decided this absurd scoring system! U.S. dominating in foursome going 2 Up, while Paris Hilton had a threesome with Kevin Federline and Lady Gaga's meat dress while drinking 7 Up. And what a great venue - Wales in October. Flood much? Either way, I look forward to finding any excuse for rooting on my Americans. USA! USA!
