F’n Alabama. A state filled with fat racist people just secured it’s third consecutive national title. It was tough enough to sit through two crappy offenses, but to then have to watch Nick F’n Saban force a smile while getting doused with Gatorade…ugh. You know that f’er was gettin crap for his sour puss face last time they won the title and forced himself to pretend to enjoy the moment. I just wish I had a field pass so I could’ve dumped out the Gatorade in the 3rd quarter and filled it up with gallons of my urine. Then, after they dumped it on him, I’d run up to him and yell ‘THAT’S for picking Culpepper over Brees!’ Now we gotta sit back and wait for the inevitable toothless-hillbillies-at-the-local-Tuscaloosa-WalMart-posing-with-the-Sears-Trophy pictures to show up all over the Internet. Is it me, or does every single male Bama fan ages 15-35 have the same f’n haircut? The same floppy, to-the-side ‘do…the same checkered button down shirt…and the same racist views. It’s like they’re all related somehow….hmmm.
- Not sure how he’s doing it (hope it’s not briefcases full of cash), but Golden is roping in one of the nation’s top recruiting classes despite the black cloud of NCAA sanctions looming overhead. Everyone is preparing for the inevitable loss of scholarships, but that’s not stopping Golden from luring in some of the nation’s top recruits. Rivals has Miami with the 6th best class in the nation. Scout has us 7th. ESPN lists us at 12.
- The total number of commitments is around 30. The number will fluctuate as some might enroll early in order to count against last year’s class. Last February Golden projected 21-23 commits in the 2012 class. They have exceeded that and there is still three more weeks to go. It’s important for this class to be not only quality, but large. There’s no telling how many scholarships will be lost in the future, so stock up on talent now.
- There’s talk of OC Jedd Fisch heading to Chicago to be the Bears QB coach, but I’m not too concerned. For one, he recently moved from the NFL to the college ranks on purpose. Secondly, he just had a kid with his wife and they’re settling down in South Florida. And thirdly, he would have to work with Jay Cutler on a daily basis. That dude seems like a prick.
Quick Hits: I’m not a big NBA fan, but NBATV’s ‘Open Court’ is a great show. Round table discussion with Barkely, Shaq, Reggie Miller, Chris Webber and others about stories from their playing days….Am hoping Justin Blackmon falls to the Phins in the draft, but doubt it. They never trade up, but if they did, Luck is the only one I’d want. He’s worth the next three years’ first round picks, if not more….If you don’t mind readin subtitles, rent ‘The Secret In Their Eyes.’ Won the Oscar for Best Foreign Film last year. Has a rape-y scene at the beginning and some dude whips out his wiener half way through, but if you can stomach that, it’s a great movie….If Mayweather names his non-Pacquiao opponent this week, he is clearly dodging, as Pacquiao just said that he wants Floyd next.

I really would not mind rg3. He is a lot different from the traditional mobile qb. He is accurate and throws a beautiful deep ball. The phins already have a power receiver (Marshall), if any thing they need a small speedy guy to be the number two.
One more thing… I know people might can me crazy for this but the phins are a qb away from being a playoff team. Think about it all pro tackle, nice 2 back system (bush & daniel), top receiver, two talented corners. I mean if the phins trade up, and can land fisher watch out.
Totally agree. The Phins are not that bad. They just need a decent QB (and TE). Of all the years to tank this was it. I’m sold on Luck and I like Griffin, but I just think Luck is more of a lock. Griffin doesn’t look as comfortable in the pocket, but does throw a great ball.
How bout the Phins actually look to add some Canes to the roster?? All you have to do is look at the NFL playoffs and see they are a proven commodity. These Michigan guys (Ross, Ireland) go out of their way to NOT draft or acquire former Canes. I think this should be a blog topic honestly.
And why isn’t Rob Chudzinsky getting any looks by the Dolphins for the h/c job??? Oh, right, former Cane…..
