“The ACC has not performed as well this year as they have performed traditionally.” Jay Bilas on ESPN’s College Basketball Gameday, further emphasizing my exact point that has been argued here and on Pack Pride multiple times this year. It is really not that big of a deal. But, it is a relevant point that […]

Kiper Predicts Mario to Green Bay
NFL draft guru Mel Kiper, Jr. (as related by ESPN Radio’s Erik Kuselias) apparently is sold on Mario Williams. In his first mock draft including declared underclassmen, Mel predicts he’ll be snatched up by the Packers with the 5th overall pick. Williams would be the first defensive player selected. Kuselias also likes Williams – let’s […]
The Ultimate Media Conundrum
You know, it’s too bad the New England Patriots and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish can’t play each other. It would be fun to watch the TV foofs’ heads explode trying to decide who to cheer for. I’ve come to expect poor quality, unprofessional work from Phil Simms. But the nonstop Patriot ass-kissing from Jim […]
DeLong: Sendek’s Historical Inconsistency
John DeLong of the Winston-Salem Journal had a great column previewing the State-Carolina game today. Lots of quotes in it need to be shared and saved: So, today we get to find out how good N.C. State’s basketball team really is. N.C. State will face rival North Carolina at the Smith Center this afternoon, in […]
Clt Obs Follows N&O’s Lead

National Title Game
All I can say is – Pete Carroll made the right call going for it on 4th down. His defense was never going to stop Vince Young when he had 4 downs to work with (even a moron like Mack Brown would have to call the QB draw at least 1 time out of 3, […]

More Media (ESPN) Nonsense
The ESPN crew has become a disgusting band of self-promoting carnies? When was it exactly that “all-timeâ€? became the ubiquitous companion to the word great? As many of you who have read this website over the course of the 2005 football season know, I don’t have much patience for USC dogma. But before anyone questions […]
CLT OBS Headline Writer Struggles with Common Sense
The headline of today’s Meineke Car Care Bowl section of the Charlotte Observer reads: “Sales slow for Pack and…who?” Link Look at that again. “SLOW” ticket sales. SLOW ticket sales “for (the) Pack”. Oh my God. Is this a joke that missed the mark? Talk about living up to the stereotype of being out of […]
Byting Miami Quotes
I didn’t have the opportunity to listen to the commentators during the State-Alabama game last week because I was watching the game at Amedeo’s. But, I did make note of some quotes that the Fox Basketball crew shared during the Miami game that I had not logged yet and thought that I would throw on […]
