It sits for everything good in amateur athletics and stands for what is bad.
It collects billions of dollars for its athletes struggles and gives out billions of words to bring down athletes who did nothing wrong.

A new record
But now there is even a more embarrassing situation for an SEC coach. No, it is not an affair. No, it is not a false hiring. No, it isn’t even an NCAA rules violation.

Upsets?!? Not in the World Series!
The last 8 champions of baseball’s World Series were the best team in baseball.
Write that down; cement it.
God help us if this happened…
I have always had two ratings: a power rating and a poll-style rating. I rate all 119 teams for both.
Now you ask what the difference is, and I answer it by telling you that the power ratings is the analysis of the team as a whole with a slight emphasis on winning/losing, while the poll is how I think the team really is.
Last year, I watched parts of three games during the regular season.
I watched the first quarter of the early Christmas game on ABC, I watched a Denver @ Miami game in which Miami scored 100 points in the first three quarters because it was on at Outback when I was visiting Miami, and I watched part of Miami’s classic overtime miracle on Friday night against Dallas in March. The last game was the only one that spurred any emotion.

Patience is a virtue for Auburn
Auburn president William Walker and members of his staff, including athletic director David Housel, used a booster’s plane to secretly go to Louisville to interview Petrino after a 4-3 start. They interviewed him and were set to fire Tuberville after the season, but word of this got out.
Somewhat about sports, somewhat not, somewhat pointless, somewhat sharp…
The 2004 Dolphins may not win a game…
I had a better title, but it was too long…
