Nine More Months…

By Nate • Jan 11th, 2008 • Category: Sports, TV

until the college football season starts back up.
Yeah, I’m kind of a junkie. I’ll be following the recruiting process until early February, then, after a short break, I will be checking in on spring practices. I’ve started to feel weirder and weirder about this as I get older. I figure I’m a year or two [...]



Memo To FOX Sports

By Nate • Jan 3rd, 2008 • Category: Sports

Re: Coverage of BCS Bowl Games
Gentlemen,
Being that this is the second year of your contracted coverage of the NCAA Football’s BCS Bowl games, I assumed you would have had enough time to get your act together and have everything under control. After the last three games, it appears that this is not the case. To [...]

College football season is winding down and, with only three weeks left until the long, cold wait for bowl games, talk has turned even more fervently to the Heisman. This year has seen no real strong contender stake his claim to the award. We’ve seen no defining moments or sustained greatness. As soon as one [...]

The #2 ranked Oregon Ducks lost to the Arizona Wildcats tonight, 34-24, becoming the fifth #2 team to fall during this topsy-turvy college football season. As I watched the game unfold, I was amazed by how delicate the psyche of a group of strong, fast, fine-tuned young men can be.
Midway through the first quarter, after [...]
