Ugly America: Bracketology 03/02

March has arrived, but it sure as hell didn’t bring any real clarity to the bracket situation. Just as it looked as if we’d discovered three bona fide #1 seeds, two of them lost during the week, and the teams below them all pulled off important victories. Meanwhile, a couple of teams finally woke up [...]

THE GAMES OF THE WEEK

“The Ire Of The Tigers Fans”

If Mizzou fans are not upset today, then they will be after reading this.  If I were a Mizzou fan, I would be upset.  Sure that win against Kansas was dare I say the biggest win in the history of the program?  There has not been so much excitement in [...]

SopCast is still dead and other collected works

Yes, SopCast is still dead from the mortal wound that the NFL inflicted on it two weeks ago. Some ace reporting reveals that not only are the NFL SopCast feeds dead, but the guy responsible for finding most of the links to individual streams has suddenly and mysteriously disappeared off the face of the Internet.

Apparently the Mississippi media can’t find a TV …

As we’ve said before, credit the AP pollsters for making votes public, unlike their counterpart coward coaches, who only do so after the season (because, of course, we shouldn’t know their agenda until year’s end, right?).

When AP Pollsters go insane

Let’s give the AP voters some credit: Unlike the amazing cowards that coach college football and vote in the weekly USA Today Coaches Poll, the media members make public their top 25 votes every single week (the weasel coaches only do that after the final poll).
