Excuse me and the financial crisis

I have been detained by obligations and apologize for my absense but I honestly see less reason for coverage during the season than out of it. During the season you're swamped with information. Out of seaon all you hear about are arrests.

Tonight we are given a nice morsel of football with a Big East Power, once again, versus another Big 12 also ran in Louisville/Kansas State. Kansas State looks to have the horses.

Lou Holtz, Mark May, Reece Davis and Mark May (seems redundant doesn't it) are calling the game. Louisville just missed a potentially game changing pat putting them up by 13 rather than 14. Holtz just went off on a player not getting up and going off the field after getting a little injured. I have to agree with my fellow KSU grad.

Louisville seems to be the place for the Ryder Cup championship, Valhalla Country Club to be exact. I must say, from the pictures, the place is right up there with Augusta in terms of beauty from all that.

It's 10:05 and my 3 year old has decided to eat some food for dinner... Raisin Bran.. as I hear him watching Spongebob and echoing the latter remnants of the ABC song...

Ahh... dow down 449 points... thank you very much Tanqueray....

CSTV, now CBS College Sports


I've been wondering why all they do is play replays of SEC Games but now it's making sense. I forgot that CSTV existed, but was taken over by CBS. It was cool when it wasn't really affiliated with any particular conference. But CSTV did raise Trev Alberts from the grave of college football analysis. Sort of.

What I witnessed was nothing more than an ill-conceieved ESPN segment where they each picked conference winners, national championship participants, national champion winner and the Heisman winner. Trev continues his annoyance here now. But. He has toned down his disdain and sword swallowing a bit from his old days as the useless and hateful yin to Mark May's useless and hateful yang.

Anyways, it was better than watching the Chinese Government slave drive their civilians into weird performances where they almost seem happy.

The CBS station is parked clear up in the nosebleed 600 level near the new location for the Big 10 Network. Needless to say most DirecTV people don't even know to check out the channels up there so not too many casual sports fans will ever even get to watch Trev and his buddies. They don't even have Aaron whatshisname- triple forehead the Domer who was also castoff of ABC/ESPN's studio show.
