I blundered into this by accident and liked it so much I had to put up a link someplace. I figured it would find a sympathetic audience here.

Here's a short excerpt:

"'It's the joy, the sheer joy on the fans' pathetic joyful faces and in their insipid happy voices that fills me with such loathing—loathing for the certainty they will feel when all is said and done and they know exactly who is the best, and hatred for the pure joy they will feel because of it,'" Pac-10 conference commissioner Larry Scott said as he panted, slumped down in a wheelchair. "Mark my words, their certainty regarding exactly how good a team is or isn't will never be allowed to corrupt the BCS—and neither will their joy."

As of press time, Scott had been hospitalized due to nausea and bile scarring in his throat."

The stupid 3-letter system will be around until they figure out a way that the big schools can make even more money than they do today from the BCS. The NCAA tourney makes much more overall but the big leagues get less.

Wait, is this suppose to be an April fools joke? It has to be. There is no way anyone would say or do these things. I'm shocked.

The Onion is supposed to be this way. Do not take it seriously. Just read about it and all the other news stories they publish and you will understand.
The Onion is great, for the record. :)
