The Final Outrage

Buffalo loses to UConn 38-20 in the International Bowl in Toronto (the MAC now losing in foreign countries), to bring their conference bowl record to 0-4.

Meanwhile, after Ohio St. loses to Texas, the Big Ten will finish at 1-6 (and that doesn't even include Michigan, who sucked so bad they didn't qualify for a bowl).

Resolved: the Midwest needs to take a break from college football next year.

College Football Teams That Suck (cont'd)

Syracuse 24
Notre Dame 23
Final OH...MY...GOD...why wasn't Charlie Weis fired immediately after the game?

For the Irish (6-5), losing to a 19 1/2 -underdog ranks among the worst losses in school history and leaves coach Charlie Weis with a 28-20 record in four seasons.

Weis’s 58.3 winning percentage is the same that Bob Davie was fired with after five seasons and Tyrone Willingham after three. Weis has seven years left after this season on a 10-year contract.

And yet, he is a GIGANTIC POMPOUS ASS. It is just unbeweevable how much the Irish SUCK.

Michigan 7 (Weasels in a state of despair. Sad...puzzling...)
Ohio St. 42
Final

Indiana 10 (the Cats lost to them?)
Purdue 62
Final

Cal Poly 35
Wisconsin 36
Final OT (YIKES! Almost lost to a bunch of slide rules...at home.)

Illinois 10
Northwestern 27

Final

Saturday’s game marked the last time Illinois and Northwestern played for the Sweet Sioux Tomahawk. The framed tomahawk has been a part of the instate rivalry since 1947, but school officials announced Friday that its run will end as part of the 2005 NCAA directive to stop using American Indian imagery.

What will they play for now? My nomination: a casting of Blago's Hair.

Iowa 55

Minnesota 0 (Look it up: the Gophers were ranked this year.)

East. Michigan 52
Temple 55 (they've found a conference they don't totally suck in.)
Final

Buffalo 40 (walking away with the MAC East. Oh, the humanity...)
Bowling Green 34
Final OT

You know the MAC sucks when...

...Buffalo is leading one of the divisions.

In related news, American Express is asking da gumbint for a few billion dollars... which financial institution will K-Mad try to destroy next?

Edgewater Smelts: Cub-like exploits

Finish with the best record in the league, and get crushed in the first round of the playoffs.

Fun Horror Facts

AAA Catcher leads the Andersonville Horror in OPS. MI@@Y Montero is 2nd.

AAA Pitcher leads the team in walks, losses, and runs allowed. He is second in appearances (behind Joe Smiff!). He has stepped on a rake, fallen down the dugout steps, punched 23 Gatorade buckets, fallen from the upper deck, been run over by a bus, attacked by penguins, suffered a season-long imbalance of the humours, stapled his hand to a rosin bag, squirted suntan lotion into his eye, and been attacked by crabs, but has not spent a day on the disabled list.

facecrap continues to suck

I added Twitter to the mini-feed so everyone could see my brilliant updates like "sammich." Of course, it doesn't work. Doesn't update. And yes, i went into edit and checked everything (twice), and then i unchecked and doublechecked and rechecked and reloaded and reupdated (three times). Also pre-boarded. Still doesn't work.

The phokking thing sucks. I blame Fung.
