Rome has to be relieved. and no doubt he'll express his relief via playing the same five soundbites ad nauseum

Making the most of that national spotlight

Are we still top 20 in Ecuador?

Why? They're practically taking over the sports world and have a very big influence on what the rest of the media and the average joe fan thinks. And you wonder why people here look down on you? If you can't give us credit for formulating our own thoughts on things in the sports world without relying on ESPN, I don't know what to tell you. So, ESPN: Dama :: Glenn Beck : Marvin ?

Don't they also have the longest bowl-free streak in D-IA?

I have most every Maff chat log going back to the original chats in '04... not that this helps Kreese in any way. I have my HD partitioned into two separate sections, with one about 10-20G and only for the OS files and the other partition being used as storage for media, writings, etc. and then if I need to clean Windows I only wipe out the OS partition while the media partition is safe. I also have a guideline file that reminds me of all the things I need to do both before and after reinstalling

I dunno, I don't pay any attention to the undergoings-on of the Ehs-Eee-See, so his record (plus seeing some of his games here and there) is all I have to go on The question now is who will snap him up... someone with that record surely can't stay unemployed for long

So four years of 9+ wins (including 11-2 and 13-0 seasons), 6-1 in bowl games since 2002 and six previous straight wins over your rival provided no job security whatsoever, huh Did I miss something here?

This post puts it in context

Rickey's plaque will have to be as tall as Rickey himself to list all those teams

At least until they crash that and burn at Ford (more like Found On Road Dead, m i rite) Field next week

Dark Age : Milk :: VanHalen : me

I didn't see any of that bowl game. Did Tech actually outplay Cal or did Cal just pull the "We got screwed so we're not showing up" bit like Kansas State in '98?

Man, I thought I'd be thrilled to see OU go in over Texas, but now that it's actually happened I feel mildly guilty about... it doesn't seem right. As for the triangle situation, I remember back in 2000 when the Pac 10 had a similar situation, with Washington losing to Oregon losing to Oregon State who lost to Washington. Washington wound up with the Rose Bowl invite and I have no recollection how that was actually resolved. I'm sure Bored can chime in on that one. Bashing the Human Planet? I'm down with that I hate UT as I would most of my team's division rivals (though I have no real vitriol for OU due to a couple good friends of mine who are big Sooners fans). I just have extra dislike for Mack Brown is all. Originally I thought he was a good source of comic relief when he was constantly trying to find different ways of justifying why he would keep starting the pretty boy Super Bowl MVP's kid over the guy who could actually play QB. Then he pulled that bullshit with the Rose Bowl in 2004 which earned my enmity because 1) I'm a fan of the traditional Pac 10-Big 10 matchup and wanted to see Cal-Michigan instead and 2) I just thought it was a real fucking cheap thing to do, and so then I just wanted to see him lose as bad as possible... of course that was all for naught when he was fucking hoisting the crystal football the very next year, so the least I can hope for is seeing him limited to just that one

At least Robot Chicken makes no illusions about being just a clip-skit show. True, I actually enjoy RC (at least the earlier episodes, haven't seen much of it in the last year), though it's mildly marred by the fact that for most of the sketches I could in my head easily see them preceded by a "This is worse than/better than/just like when ________"

They're usually metal album covers and random titles/lyrics, which fits right in line with my well-established love of the metal

Robot Chicken is just Seth Green compiling all the potential FG cutaway jokes that MacFarlane rejected

I'm only good enough to review items from the time I was here... if you want to cover anything from TSM's formative years or the pre-TSM boards, you'll have to ask someone else

Who are you again? You just remind me of someone from when I used to post here........espeically reveling in the pain of OU fans. Hmmm..........*points* I'm watching. I like him... let's keep him

Ombudsmen? Omsbudmen? Omsbudsmens?

Just saw the footage of the last minute win by KU over Mizzou, fuckin' Tigers

Substantial, perhaps? Come on, I didn't build my entire rep on one-liners alone! ...just most of it

Nothing of what Brody said actually negated Porter's accusation

As long as we're talking Big Red Machine, I'd put the '76 team over the '75 team. Yes, the '75 team won 108 games but needed seven games to put away the 95-win Red Sox (not to disparage that Sox team), while the '76 Reds (who did win 102 games) became the only team to sweep the entire postseason in the post-LCS era. Granted, that was when the LCS was only a five-game series, but no one else did it during the 15 years that was in effect. On top of it, the two teams they swept included a 101-win Phillies team that would make the playoffs repeatedly over the next several years, and the Yankees who would go on to win the next two WS.

Also, the 1995 Cornhuskers were the greatest college football team I've seen in my lifetime, and that's coming from someone with a strong hatred of the Big Red
