Greetings:
I just finished watching the earlier-taped Rose Bowl. Whatever religion, or none, to which you adhere or profess, you have to admire Andy Dalton's (Offensive MVP) comments after the game and the pure spunk of Tank Carder (Defensive MVP) coming from a broken back earlier in life to win "The Granddaddy of Them ALL! The Rose Ball!!!". And that despite repeatedly falling down due to the short cleats on their shoes (and nobody thought to bring replacements because Nike had designed these shoes especially for this turf and this game) as well as referees who can't see Michigan obviously holding a TCU player or a TCU players head being ripped off since they are the upstarts from Fort Worth, Texas. I still think that the Mafia has bought out the referees in Basketball, Football (USA and European) for sure; and maybe baseball and hockey.
Maybe NOW the corrupt BCS will allow the little guys to play in the bowl games and (maybe?) begin a REAL playoff system where everyone with a winning season of no more than two lost games gets a chance to compete for the national title. But, TCU is not defeated this year. Maybe they will let TCU play the winner of the "national championship" game? Naaaahhhhh - probably not.
TCU Horned Frogs, 21
Michigan Badgers, 19
(Blocked pass by Tank Carter on Michigan two-point conversion to a wide-open tight end with only 1 minute to play)
BTW, for those who don't know, the horned frog is actually a horny lizard that squirts blood from his eyes when cornered or upset. OK, that's my last blurt on sports until the World Games and then only if certain teams get that far. (Being of Norse heritage, my team for the Super Bowl would have been The Minnesota Vikings but.... )
