Clausen. Is he really a Heisman candidate?


Today, over at Hot Clicks, at si.com I saw a link to a guy who listed some candidates for this years Heisman. He had Jimmy Clausen (QB at Notre Dame for those of you who don't like college football) on the list. This got me thinking about if this guy really has a shot at the Heisman. ND is coming off its worst season in history and is definitely going to make some improvement here, but the way it is these days you have to not only be the best athelete, but you have to be on one of the best teams. Just think about it out there. I would love hearing from some of you out there on ths subject if you got the time. If you want to see the link here it is, http://heismanpundit.com/archives/1591. He also poses a rather simple question. Who will win more games this season; Notre Dame or Michigan. Is this guy serious????? There is no way in hell that the school up north will win more than ND no matter what kind of stuff Rico Rod pulls up there.

That is all. Till next time good luck picking winners.

Senor White, I wish you well.


I found this post very interesting. As you all know, Kevin White recently departed Our Lady's university for people who like to call themselves dookies. Good job.


Anyway, I found this article about the BCS and why ND is so coveted when it comes to bowl games. Basically we have good fans who are willing to travel no matter what the circumstances. I think White sold us short during the last round of discussions regarding BCS payouts. Read link below.


In other news, I am happy that Big Brown did not win the Belmont (and the Triple Crown). Dutrow and company do not understand the signifcance or the treasure that is the Triple Crown. Sounds like a bunch of low lifes got lucky, bought some horses and think they should be handed the trophy. False! I hope this humbles them a little. This is something reserved for great men and even greater horses. I hope everyone who attended Belmont park had a good time regardless. I was not there, but I enjoyed by taking Da'Tara acroos the board! I kind of had to when the horse was named Tara, the jockey was named Alan Garcia, and Big Brown was setup for this kind of failure. I look forward to seeing Brown again in the future, perhaps against Curlin, or maybe even a rematch against Casino Drive and/or Da'Tara.
Remember, 1-4 odds even come in dead last some time.
