I nearly turned off The Sports Reporters immediately when I saw Screaming A. on the panel, but then I would have missed his inane opening commentary on how USC and Florida should be in the BCS title game and they don't even need to play the rest of the season (tough luck, LSU).

You are forgetting that they beat Syracuse, which is nearly akin to beating Temple these days.

It was a makeup call for the one that they missed, even though the official was standing three feet away and looking right at it.

They could start by making sure all their games are on TV in Chicago.

Yeah, I was wondering that myself. All the guy did was shift his position on the line, he didn't try and induce a false start or anything.

Hopefully, this will spark some review of whether polls should be conducted for the first month of the season. Obviously, UCLA is nowhere near being the 11th-ranked team in the country if they're getting embarrassed by a team like Utah.

Wow, last I heard it was 14-6 Utah. Good defence, I guess.

Too bad they've probably lost Jerimy Finch for the year with a knee injury after running back a pick in garbage time. That looked gruesome on the replay.

Anyone listening to McCarver embarrassing himself (again) by being shocked that more multi-run innings begin with leadoff home runs than with leadoff walks?

Thirty-three rushes for minus-six yards. THIRTY-THREE RUSHES FOR MINUS-SIX YARDS. Notre Dame is just brutally bad.

Really, what would any of us do without Lou's expert analysis and insights into the game?

They watered the greens quite a bit to get the grass to grow this week, and then they got a ton of rain the first two days of the tournament. The greens are so soft that no one has any fear of firing at the flag. The greens are still fairly bumpy, as they've been showing on TV on a lot of the putts, but guys are getting it so close that it doesn't matter.

And Zach Johnson set new course and tournament records with a 60. He just missed a bunker shot on 18 for 59.

Just what we needed, another poll based exclusively on rep.

No, the top 30 in the FedEx Cup standings after the TOUR Championship automatically retain their cards for next year (as well as automatically qualifying for The Masters).

Buffalo is even with Penn State late in the first half. Hypothetical question: Would Buffalo upsetting Penn State be more shocking than Appalachian State over Michigan?

The Browns could have Peyton Manning starting for them, and they still wouldn't beat the Bengals in Cincinnati.

He's won three Gold Gloves. He must be great.

Have you seen her blog? She's rather knowledgeable about the game.

It's the final seven tournaments on the schedule. The first two are in my opening post. It's meant to get viewers to tune in to see who can keep their card for next year.

Did anyone hear about Ocho Cinco planning to jump into the Dawg Pound if he scores a TD in Cleveland? Dude is insane, those guys would probably mug him if they got the chance.

I can't ever see taking a team against a divisional opponent on the road when they'll play that same team at home later and there's another good game to pick.

Sox/Yanks is taking absolutely forever. Three hours in, and they're only in the top of the sixth. And they've only scored seven runs!

That's excessive. I'd be in favour of suspending Belichick four games, but you can't suspend the entire coaching staff. And there's absolutely no precedent to vacate a victory for cheating. If you go down that road, you may as well vacate any team's victories when they have a player suspended for steroids. I would say suspend Belichick for four games, making sure to ban him from any and all contact with the team during that period, and take away both first-round picks, and maybe a second. Fining people has absolutely no impact.

Oh God yes. He actually made me like LEBATARD. Damn him.
