The Most Overrated Teams in College Football


Bummer Sparty!
The Most Overrated Teams in College Football: "The Most Overrated Team Has Been ...
1. Michigan State-No matter how good they look or how many starters are back, do not do it. Do not champion the Spartans, America's most overrated college football program. Resist that temptation and you'll prove wiser than your peers in the end. Ten times since 1971, Michigan State has been ranked in the preseason. In nine of those years, they ended the season unranked. And there are some real clunkers in the school vault, including Bobby Williams' last team, which opened 2002 at No. 17, yet could only manage four victories and a host of off-field missteps.
*Composite Score: -19.80 "

Sensitive men on drugs!


The Borowitz Report .com: "Elsewhere, the FDA approved a new morning-after pill that makes men stay for breakfast and call when they say they will."

Doh!


Man dies opening grenade with sledgehammer - Yahoo! News: "A Brazilian man died on Tuesday when he tried to open what police believe was a rocket-propelled grenade with a sledgehammer in a mechanical workshop on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro. "
Was he looking for a surprise inside?

Car wash?


Greenandwhite.com: MSU football notebook: Bandit keeps coping: "Junior bandit Sir Darean Adams missed some of the MSU football team's spring practice because his younger brother was shot to death.
Adams, 21, said his younger brother, Keith Ford, 18, was killed by a stray bullet in his hometown of Bradenton, Fla. Ford's death marked the third close friend or relative Adams has lost to violence since coming to Michigan State.
According to Adams, Ford was gunned down mistakenly at a car wash."
I thought they were fun places.....

The amazing Progressives part 2















Geeze. Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and Kim Gandey (President of anti-male, anti-hetro NOW-National Organization of Women) all in prominent photo-op positions with the new Progressive darling.
This is the new face of the Democrats?
Heh......

The amazing "Progressives"


The Blogometer: 8/9: Nightmares and Dreamscapes: "Savour this moment. Cable exec Ned Lamont's (D) CT Dem primary win over Sen. Joe Lieberman (D) may well be the last time for a long time that bloggers from the left and right are genuinely pleased with the exact same election result. "
This election is a disaster for the Democrat Party and the MSM (Tim Russert/George Stephanopoulos, et al) is spinning it as a "wake up call to the GOP". Lieberman will retain his seat, Demo candidates will be forced to run as anti war extremists and the GOP will retain its hold on the Senate/Congress.
What is it with democrats that they don't mind being lied to by the MSM if it makes them feel good "right now!".

Some cars do suck......



VW and Saturn at the bottom?
J.D. Power Dependability results are out - Autoblog

The threats begin!


National Review Online: "Friends,
Let the resounding defeat of Senator Joe Lieberman send a cold shiver down the spine of every Democrat who supported the invasion of Iraq and who continues to support, in any way, this senseless, immoral, unwinnable war. Make no mistake about it: We, the majority of Americans, want this war ended and we will actively work to defeat each and every one of you who does not support an immediate end to this war."
Friends, indeed....

OpinionJournal - Extra

OpinionJournal - Extra: "In this context, mutual assured destruction, the deterrent that worked so well during the Cold War, would have no meaning. At the end of time, there will be general destruction anyway. What will matter will be the final destination of the dead--hell for the infidels, and heaven for the believers. For people with this mindset, MAD is not a constraint; it is an inducement."

Sad


The Columbus Dispatch - Local/State: "Officers used Mace to subdue Clarett after a stun gun was ineffective because the former Fiesta Bowl star was wearing a bullet-resistant vest, Sgt. Michael Woods said."
Doesn't sound like he was goin' to the 7-11 to pick up some milk...

Americans Rate Television News and Talk Personalities: "A recent Gallup Panel poll asked a random sample of Americans to indicate if they have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of 17 personalities who regularly appear on news and talk shows on broadcast television and cable news networks. "

Welcome to AJC! ajc.com: "Before Germany began a guest worker program to import foreign labor, few Turks lived in Germany. Three decades after the program ended, they number 2.5 million.
Entering under the temporary program, they never left. Yet many remain on the margins of German society, living in ethnic enclaves where unemployment, poverty and youth crime rates are high. "
