Bored 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2007 Who exactly was Irish Lion? I have an inkling but I'm not sure. Here's a hint. (Smues beat me to it) Since they are going on about USC's recruiting class might as well post Rivals Top 25 recruiting classes for 2007. USC does have the most five star recruits at four but not as many four and three star recruits of some other schools. Illinois and Mississippi are the biggest surprises. 1. Texas 2. Florida 3. Tennessee 4. USC 5. LSU 6. Notre Dame 7. Georgia 8. Nebraska 9. South Carolina 10. Illinois 11. Michigan 12. Auburn 13. Virginia 14. Mississippi 15. Georgia Tech 16. Ohio State 17. Clemson 18. Oregon 19. Virginia Tech 20. Oklahoma 21. Colorado 22. Alabama 23. Washington 24. Penn State 25. Iowa Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2007 Surprised to see Ohio State so low. Edit: I expected as did alot of people, for this game to be the best and most interesting BCS bowl game given that the other 3 lack that "sexy" appeal and of course, Michigan lays an egg after the fans cried a river for the last 6 weeks.

Guest "Go, Mordecai!" Report post Posted January 2, 2007 I never did understand "Smurf turf" since that blue isn't the same color of smurfs, and they finally called em out on that. They're both blue and it rhymes. Creative license. Get a grip. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Princess Leena Report post Posted January 2, 2007 He sent me this yesterday, too... what a liar: "You know I know you're probably going to post this on TSM and have a good laugh at my expense but I'll say it anyway. For hating me so much and being glad I'm gone and not wanting me around you guys sure do talk about me a lot. Especially you. If you hate me so much, hate my posts, hate the thought of me posting, hate seeing me post, then fucking forget about me and don't bring me up in every college football thread or follow me to DVDVR and troll me. Are you that bored? Do you have that much time on your hands? Or do you all miss me so much that you have to bring me up. If you want more stuff to make fun of me about or miss me so much then unban me and have me post again. Otherwise forget about me and move on. There's plenty of idiots on TSM to bother. I just don't understand how you think or why you feel the need to always talk about me or bring me up. I mean copying one of my posts? Do you keep up with me on DVDVR? Are you obsessed with me? I would hope not. So if you're not then just forget about me and continue posting at TSM and I'll continue at DVDVR and you'll never have to read my posts or listen to me ever again! That simple!"

Slayer 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2007 I prefer the term "Astrosmurf" And "hooray" to Michigan for losing their 4th straight bowl game and 2nd to USC in three years. Way to show everyone how deserving you were of a rematch... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2007 I love Fox Sports. A story on Adrian Peterson scored to the Velvet Underground's "I'm Waiting for the Man," a song about buying heroin in Harlem. Considering that Peterson's much-ballyhooed and recently-released dad was in federal prison for dealing crack, someone at Fox is either really fucking funny, or totally inept.

If you cant tell the difference between the shades of blue (Smurfs are a lighter shade and that field is a darker shade) than you need more than an HDTV upgrade..you need a new set of eyes.

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2007 Just when I didn't think FOX could find someone who made me hate sports more than Joe Buck. They bring in Chris Rose for the Bowl Games. FANTASTIC! I'm pulling for Boise State to win by a big margin, just because the announcers are slowly making me hate Oklahoma more than Big D ever did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Conspiracy_Victim 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2007 I'm pulling for Boise State just because I like pulling for the mid-majors against the "big time" programs.
