I read that article too...

Really enjoyed it. I didn't know of this one guy before. Now, he's like the operator of the major sports world as it relates to collegiate athletics...incredible...

still reading the article but this jumped out at me...


Despite Boise State's electrifying victory over Oklahoma, college football fans seem less consumed with upsets than showdowns between the traditional powers.

hmmm...i think college football fans would be interested in potential so-called "giant killers"...but the BCS system doesn't really afford us that option....with the exception of this year's Boise State game...

just goes to show you it really IS all about money. money for the Big-10, money for the "big 6", and money for the television stations....


makes me want to throw up.
