I just wish Sean Elliot's kidney was alive to see this.

From Deadspin: A fitting final shot of the Larry O'Brien trophy - surrounded by crappy beer, in Cleveland, with no one watching it...

Work ends in 2 hours. Keep the posts coming.

Ellipses... are ...fu...n! Scre....w ....you, peri...od....s ...and ....commas! Who fits in better to the swingin' Utah scene, Dickey or JayDub?

Hey, check out my OSU jacket!

No SA is a city with only a basketball team that happens to be good. It also has an obesity epidemic, probably for the reasons you listed above. I went to a Saints game there last year and have been to Spurs game and the football intensity was much greater - even from the casual fans. It is not a basketball city. Basketball cities don't have to pump in artificial noise the way the three pro cities in our state do DURING THE FINALS. There are no basketball cities in Texas. There are, however, good basketball teams in Texas. Lots of them. It's fun.

While we're at it, what religion or race haven't we made unfair characterizations and dangerous assumptions about lately? I think this idea will never happen because of filthy Inuit Indians. Discuss.

Only if David Hasselhof himself wears said thong, which in turn has another picture of himself wearing a picture of himself wearing the thong. It's a total mind blower. If there is one thing I have tried to be during my time on GMG.com, it's classy. Every play. Win or lose.

I thought the definition of class was making endless class comparisons, blaming them for everything that ever went wrong here, and making t-shirts?

I apologized. Doesn't that get me any points back?

Crap - I offended myself. My apologies. To me.

Fixed.

No, send Biffy and Buffy's Dad back to their homes down the street on Airline crying. We all know the students won't show up. It's been downhill for them ever since they banned Khaki shorts, fake tits, and GHB from the stadium...

I put vacation photos up on flickr wearing a UNT t-shirt. Where is my thread!? Sigh.... I love you Johnny! Get me some of that Lebanon, PA meat - NFL-style!

Who knew Chrisfisher was a Hispanic name? Detroit would have lost a series to just about every team in the West...they suck.

FIXED

This is missing a significant amount of typos and wheels-off accusations. Who wrote it?

Is that a serious question, because it's pretty obvious he did... Let's join the Patriot league.

Most development and athletic positions pay that low everywhere. The majority of most AD employees outside of the ADs and associate ADS would be lucky to make $40K.

Wow, I'm glad I laid off Playmaker a few months ago. This is going well.

I just figured someone who would attack a journalist's "credibility" (your words, not mine) would maybe be interested in the facts. I don't expect you to research it - I can verify both statements right now. Actually, if you had looked, you could have seen that OU beat Washington pretty good. Boy would my face have been red... The guy did a poll based on the conferences right now going into this season and posted his thoughts. You got mad because you didn't understand it and someone called you on it and swore to protect the Sun Belt against all enemies, foreign and domestic. I just like the debate of people ranking conferences - in fact, I'll even post my list and you can maybe post yours it will be fun - maybe even more fun that acting righteously indignant. My list entering 2007-2008 (rip it apart - that is what it is for) 1. SEC (been the best for awhile...) 2. Pac-10 (as much as I hate them, the guy is right, these are a bunch of pretty good teams) 3. Big 10 (I hate the Big 10, but they always win until bowl season) 4. ACC (A&M vs. Miami will be too pretty good teams from last year in each conference. It will also probably be a blowout) 5. Big East (a lot of good teams - with only a two having a chance to be great) 6. Big 12 (would love to be wrong, but they just didn't beat anyone) 7. MWC 8. WAC 9. C-USA 10. MAC 11. Sun Belt (should pass the MAC in the next 3 years if everyone stays the course)

How? The Big 12 failed to beat a single OOC opponent in the top 25 last year and labored to beat Minnesota and Iowa in bowl games. The Big 12 was a toilet bowl last year within the national picture and the Big East had 3 top 10 teams with Louisville and WVU returning most of their talent. I don't recall a Pac 10 school losing to a Big 12 school either - unless you count that Oregon thing no one likes to talk about... I thought he laid out his case pretty well.

Take it a step further - grill out and hire 18 elementary school kids to play baseball in your backyard. That will show those damn athletes doing sports as a career what fun really is!

You should send that to him, because your response comes across really well-thought out and I bet would open the eyes of fans of other colleges around the country. You definitely took the point as intended and showed Stewart a thing or too. All you winning equals respect people are just crazy.

What up, Chris Chris?
