the BCS blows goats ... no way it fairly determines the actual best NCAA Division 1 college football team

the asswads that are ramming it down our throats are also claiming a playoff system simply cannot work, which is utter bullshit as it works a-o-k fine for the lower divisions ... so what it is really about is Bowl Game dollars and naked greed

and then to make it even more stupid, they extended the Bowl Game season for the same naked greed reasons, trying to milk the most cash from each Bowl Game ... as far as I'm concerned, the absolute last Bowl Game should have been no later than the evening of January 2nd

wouldn't it be sweet if nobody watched the bullshit BCS National Championship Game? seriously, how would the advertisers feel about spending all that high end cash for commercials in a game nobody watched?

I know there is no way that will happen, but it probably is the only way the BCS would be scrapped, because it simply serves no purpose even to the empty headed assclowns running it if it no longer was a cash cow creator

so spread the word - turn off your sets on January 8th ... read a book instead, or go to the movies, or stay in bed and have sex ... anything but watching that game

I haven't watched a game since the last Bears game. I caught the final minutes of the SD/Indy game, but only because Wifey wanted to watch SNL. I probably will watch at least a little of the game Thursday though. If my Dad hadn't invited me over to watch the game though, I probably would not watched even a couple seconds. Not out of some political statement though... I just don't give a sh*t about either team.

However... my hatred of the BCS is only getting stronger. The situation is only getting worse. It is COMPLETE BULLSH*T the the Big-12 Championship should give ANY consideration to polls, especially the BCS. I could give two sh*ts about Texas, but if the only reason OU is in the "big game" is because of the polls, then it's clearly tainted.

I haven't watched more than 5 minutes of any bowl so far. I have to admit I will be interested in tonight's championship game.

My parents were sick so I didn't go there and I didn't bother even flipping through the channels last night. I don't know anything about the game except that Oklahoma IS overrated.

eh ... big fat hairy deal ... I watched CSI on CBS at 9:00, then the local news and went to bed

I don't feel I missed a thing

and Utah is still my choice as #1, USC as #2, Florida as #3

Yeah, just because it was a good game, doesn't mean it meant anything. Missouri vs. Boston College would probably be a pretty good game but there sure as f*&k not deserving of a national title, and neither are the two over-hyped media picks for this game.

Watching both teams play offense last night was so boring. Oklahoma especially, checking with the sidelines before every single play slowed the game up to a ridiculous extent.

I believe he's overhyped, and I hope the Bears don't even get anywhere near drafting him. He's a gimmick QB in a gimmick offense.

He was dating a chick was some great big yabos, if I recall correctly.

Tebow is no more than a 2nd day pick if he comes out this year.

Those knockers would've been the only reason we could've drafted Tebow, however I heard that they broke up....

A set like that could be a threat to the guy's career. He could strain a muscle or develop carpal tunnel. He's better off without her.

Everything I heard about him, he was such a good Christian, conservative boy! He definately didn't seem the type to date a stripper or a porn star so....dare I ask....do you guys think there's any chance in hell those things could be REAL?

Maybe he was claiming to be doing missionary work?

Turns out that's not his girlfriend after all, it was merely a photo op with british model Lucy Pinder, who you can enjoy here.

If I was him, and she was mine, I would surely be doing something more creative than missionary work. We are talking wheelbarrow, reverse cowgirl, T-square, piledriver...anything where I could get those boobs a bouncin'.

I guess I could go into a rant about temptation and the moral standards of some hardline Christians... but I don't think I need to say anything beyond... "he's a guy." I don't care how good a person you are, you're still gonna notice a pretty girl. Also... and this partially addresses the Christian idea that they have some sort of a monopoly on morality... why is it that someone that likes strippers and/or porn, couldn't otherwise be a good person? Just because someone doesn't conform to some outdated organization's idea of moral purity, doesn't mean they will spend their entire lives chugging beers, f*&king strippers and eating babies. I'm sure there are gay people that care about education... porn stars that want to feed the needy... maybe even tax-collectors that volunteer to pet homeless kittens.

So yeah... I think it's very possible that Tebow IS a good person that's done all the warm-and-fuzzy, feel-good charity work that will make him a very marketable endorsement when he goes pro AND he would still have his picture taken with a hot girl with huge cans.

... and if that is who UOK says it is (I've never heard of her myself :angel: ), she claims they're real.

Oh Gaba, don't get your porn loving panties in a bunch! I think you are a GREAT guy with wonderful morals! It doesn't shock me at all that he had his picture taken with her, I would, however, have been suprised if she was his girlfriend. His parents are missionaries FFS! Appearances! Hello? That was all I was saying. Hell, I wouldn't even be all that shocked if he boinked her, given the opportunity. I just don't think he would have her as his GIRLFRIEND. KWIM? She doesn't fit the persona he puts out there.

And btw, there is no way any tax collector is volunteering to pet kittens! Puleeze! They probably eat kittens for breakfast!

This has nothing to do with me. I'm a horrible person. I'm the f*&king anti-Christ. (Ask anyone on my facebook friends list.) I just get really irritated with people that think you have to be a Christian to be a good person (and that being a Christian automatically makes you a good person). It's just like the idea that this country was "founded on Christian values" as if DON'T KILL PEOPLE and DON'T STEAL SH*T was a new idea.
