UCLA sucks. That is all. P.S. Enjoy your Pac-12 South “championship”! Have fun at Autzen! HAHAHAHAHA
In the last few years as a Penn State fan, I had one main fear: that somehow, Joe Paterno’s tenure at Penn State University would end in ignomy.

Anyway, sorry, I’ve been really busy, and what free time I’ve had for the Interwebs has been going toward Twitter instead. But look! A pretty picture of Notre Dame Stadium at… Read more »

This caused the most hilarious account on Twitter, Fake Dan Beebe — the funniest fake tweeter since @MayorEmanuel and his pet duck Quaxelrod disappeared into the motherf***ing time portal — to go out in an absolute blaze of glory, one… Read more »
YAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!! The Pac-16 is dead! The Pac-16 is dead! The Pac-16 is dead! USC, still in Boulder every other year! WOOHOO!!! Victory!!! Larry Scott has decided to pull the plug on negotiations with Texas & co., apparently deeming that it wasn’t worth all the hassles and problems expansion was going to entail.

“Fell deeds awake! Now for wrath, now for ruin, and an Orange dawn!” In a stunning development that virtually guarantees #CHAOS and #PANIC on the conference realignment front, Syracuse and Pittsburgh have abandoned the Big East in favor of the ACC.
