Go cry somewhere else, Bearcat Boy.

LOL @ potato. Seriously though, yeah, we are not good defensively. And what is Mark May talking about? Questionable calls went against OSU. Braxton was down and the Purdue player took ball away from him on ground. No way that is a fumble.

We are the worst 8-0 team in the history of football. Fuck it, though. I'd rather be an awful 8-0 than a flawless 4-4. Braxton looked awful. I had a hard time figuring out just what was wrong with him. At first I thought it was a collar bone or dislocated shoulder, but then figured that wasn't it by the way they carried him off the field. Then he was just like completely limp and seemed like he was having a hard time breathing. Broken ribs? Concussion. I hate when he tries to stiff arm defenders like he is Pryor. Braxton always gets jacked up when he tries that. Oh well I just hope he is okay - and not just in the "I hope we get our starting QB back soon" way.

I find that fucking models in ugly shirts helps ease the pain of being ticketed for not having a front plate. I choose not to run a front plate. And I don't complain when I get ticketed for it. I broke the law and there are penalties for breaking the law. The end. Sure, ticketing someone for not having a front plate when they are parked is likely not the best use of a ticket, and I can see where people might take issue with it. Still, in the end, the law is the law. Similarly, fighting a ticket for no front plate when you didn't have a front plate is likely not the best use of time or the legal system. However, our legal system is predicated on several principles, including innocence until proven guilty. Want your day in court? You get it. Good luck. Personally, I just pay the ticket, acknowledge the penalties I pay for disobedience, and move on.

Don't know if they take pictures of your car or not. I've been ticketed under the same circumstances for not displaying a front plate. Luxury tax, my good man.

Matt, whoa, I'm out of the loop bigtime, I didn't know you got an SL. Congrats!

Yeah, maybe "cheating" was a poor choice of words. Oh, okay, well, I guess that makes more sense (i.e., someone flipping a green light), but I can see what you're saying about the limited amount of time; the 'staging area' does seem short. Why would he show when he can beat you on paper from the comfort of his living room? :gabe:

Sorry, Linn, didn't see this thread. You were definitely on top of this a long time ago - props.

Tim Tebow was arguably the greatest college football player of all time. Arguably, I said. But still arguable. Two national championships, 3 BCS bowl wins, a Heisman, nearly two Heismans, and unquestionably one of the most charismatic figures the game has had in the past generation, if not more. I'd be estatic if Braxton accomplishes half the stuff Tebow did. And, BTW, for the record I think Tebow is kind of annoying. But, I'd take his resume as my quarterback's resume any day.

Wow, both Lambos seemed to handle the GTR easily. Okay, so, I'm wondering, how do they determine the start of these races? Obviously, it seems as though you pass through a series of cones/flags that signal you "staging" or whatever and then you go as you pass the last start cone/flag. However, to me it sometimes seems like the cars aren't both starting from the same speed. Like, are you allowed to "cheat" and, say, floor your car so that, when you get to that last start cone/flag, you're going at a higher rate of speed than the other car?

I would have liked to have seen Ohio SL (who I am assume is Jamie) and that AMS GTR continue - both looked to be very strong. And I was impressed by the 911 - I did not expect it to do that well. All the cars seemed likey moved out - a lot of them were putting buslengths on the trailing bike in a matter of seconds.

Not surprised at all. It was a fireable offense.

Oh, gotcha. Yeah, seems like Mike/Common Man likes the White Sox and Scott/Torg likes Minnesota teams and the Cubs.

What fake super fan acts? Serious question - I listen to the show regularly, but I'm not sure what you're referencing. Do you have an iPhone? It always autocorrects "shit" to "shot" on mine.

Desmond Howard adds about zero to GameDay. Seriously, zero. I wish he would get fired too. The Torg is a moron for lots of reasons, including the fact of publically wishing death on someone. LOL @ Ben's Citgo reference.

Wait, so 1998 Ohio State might have beaten that Tennessee team, but not FSU? Yet, that Tennessee team beat FSU. FSU > Ohio State > Tennessee > FSU?

The answer is no, they didn't get it right either year. 2008 USC would have waxed Florida or Oklahoma, and 1998 Ohio State would have curbstomped Tennessee or Florida State. You could argue that I'm incorrect, but you'd be wrong. Now get back to watching YouTube videos and if you say anything more about the BCS "getting it right" I'm going to lobby to have your screenname changed to Josh the Communist.

An 8 team playoff works best. Gabe already said it - teams that are at 9 and 10 can't bitch too much as clearly they aren't frontrunners. A 16-team playoff? Uh, how about no. There's no way I'm letting a #15 ranked team into a playoff. They could go 7-5 and win the NC. Fuck that. The season has to count for something.

WTF? 2008 USC begs to differ. And so does 1998 Ohio State.

Sagat with the Tiger Uppercut.

Kansas State is going to lose at some point, I have to think. Same with Notre Dame. Stupid fucking LSU will vault themselves way up with a win over Bama. Note, they play this year at LSU. Poor Oregon is either getting shut out or they get to be the sacrificial lamb.

Florida and Alabama will play each other if they remain undefeated. How far does either of those teams drop in the polls with a defeat in SEC CG? I wouldn't think all that far, really. Maybe not even far enough to move the loser below #2 in BCS. Are we on course for another all-SEC NCG? Fucking hand me the Clorox...

Had the score held at 52-35 or whatever it was before the defense packed it in and imploded then we would be at #6 - LSU wouldn't have leap-frogged us, IMHO. Had we beat Indiana 17-14 - same margin of victory, but lower score - I bet we would have dropped in the polls. Pollsters love high scores. It's what makes them fall in love with Oregon every year.
