"...NBC and the corporate advertisers who are usually so outspoken on American political issues suddenly get very quiet about real, mass, criminal activity to protect their earnings."

Isn't this the truth!

Good article and funny: "punting is winning", "the X's and O's -the schematic advantage", "the coach speaking in native Cajun" and Dr. Matt Grootegoed in his Lamborghini. Why duckies need so many different uniforms?

I was with you until you proposed doing away with Halftime and the marching bands - wrong on so many levels.

Turning College Football into the junior NFL with be the death of it... losing the strong connection with the student body, the reason that the college/university exist in the first place, is going in the wrong direction.

The NFL (or any professional sports league) is all about; making money, making more money, and not losing money. This has never been the model for college sports.

“Speaking of firing, all Pac 12 officials will be terminated immediately. NFL officials will take their place. If they are not available, a random selection of people off the street will do.”

Get out of my head! 🤣🤣

Great read ✌️

Chris, re: the requirement to have Gomer succeed Saban at Bama---I thought the 8th Amendment prohibited cruel and unusual punishment way back in 1791--:LOL:. Some very funny comments---I had to actually clean my diet cola drink off the laptop screen on reading the Claydo comment.

I hesitate to say it because I get emotional, but I wish GP were still alive to see this brilliant transformation that SC has/is going through these last few months and hear him comment about it. RIP my beautiful Trojan, I will always love you and what you mean/meant to SC football and SC in general.😇😇🙏🏼🙏🏼 Thank you for those memories

Great article. The only thing I disagree with is the 12 team playoff... No team deserves a bye... So the playoff should be 8 or 16 teams with the P5 Conference winners automatically getting in [agree that there is a max limit of 2 teams from any one conference].
