Earlier today, I ranted on why Alabama is not going to fall off. I think any prediction of the Tide’s demise is, frankly, beyond stupid. That doesn’t mean I’m going to not respond to what Clemson did last night. We college football fans have been waiting for a squad to emerge as a legitimate foul…

Alabama Will Be Just Fine, Folks…
Sure, I was one of the happy campers who saw the Alabama Crimson Tide hey their asses molly-whopped by the Clemson Tigers last night (go ACC!!!). I was happy to see coach Nick Satan get humbled.

No Credit for Maryland Firing Durkin
So lemme get this straight. Not even 24 hours after the Board of Trustees at the University of Maryland said it was best to bring back head football coach D.J. Durkin despite him being responsible for the death of 19-year-old Jordan McNair, the school fired his ass yesterday. Durkin was a man who led a…
