jones Top Ten - Week 12 - 2011
Nonsense is my favorite multi-purpose catch-all word. My own aloha, I suppose. Smartly defined right out of the M-W.D., nonsense captures “foolish or meaningless words or actions.” But I think of it more broadly, as a general synonym for chaos and upheaval in my household. Children...
Saturday Open Thread: A Tribute to Paul Rhoads
Upset for the ages? Not really. Mike Gundy is still the coach in Stillwater after all. You can just imagine T. Boone texting visor boy, thumbing his diamond studded iPhone from the owner's suite: I DIDN'T PAY $300 MILLION TO LOSE A BCS TROPHY IN AMES IOWA SHITBIRD! STICK A BOTTLE OF HAIR GEL UP UR...

Barking Carnival’s College Football Viewing Guide: Week 10
Can we dial down the "Game of the Century" talk for just a tick? It is 2011, and I know the Internet only functions in hyperbole, but in a relatively ho-hum year, I think it is a reach to start decreeing LSU vs. Alabama the best thing we'll see over the next 89 years. Regardless, Saturday night...

BCS Analysis – Undefeateds Update
Another week, another two undefeated teams bite the dust. Unlike last week, this week's victims Clemson and Kansas State got blown out, leaving little doubt that they are out of the national title picture with the loss. Just like last week, I'm going to stay brief and only update last week's...
Boone Pickens Barry Switzer: Having Fun at Texas Expense
Boone Pickens is feeling pretty good these days. His $165 million investment into Oklahoma State athletics is paying the kind of dividends he had hoped for.
