Ick's Corner

Okay, sports fans, what’s wrong with this poll? I mean, there’s a lot to scrutinize, that’s for sure. Florida is obviously still riding the wave they caught last year by winning the BCS Championship game. Texas would have loved to have played them, but they didn’t, so don’t sweat the number 2 ranking. Pete Carroll is probably sitting in some booster paid-for recruit’s den, whining about being below the Okies, but number 4 isn’t a bad place to start. And Ole Miss at number 8? Riiiight. That’ll last a long time (Sorry, Jeavon). As you go down the list, there are plenty of places to stop and scratch your head, but the biggest surprise of all is the omission of the Cabbage Patch Kids from the plains of Lubbock, Texas. Obviously, nobody talked to the Cabbage Patch Coach about his team. You know, the one which scores huge numbers each game. The team that sends all these great players to the pros!! I mean, the QB is so good, teams figured they couldn’t afford him, so the didn’t bother to draft him!! Why go through the contract hassle? Oh, damn, that doesn’t make sense. That only happens when you drop to 10th in the draft, but want 5th place money because that’s where you felt you should have been drafted. Al Davis paid Heyward-Bey a kings ransom at number 7, you say? So what…Al Davis has been fiscally irresponsible for years. He probably pays more than $10 for a haircut, too. Lookout for the weaker teams the Tt Red Raiders play this year. The “System” will try to score in triple digits to wipe this insult from their swashbuckling faces!! There’s a bad wind blowin’ out there on the plains of west Texas. Beware of scorned CP Kids!!
