You sorry SOB's

As I reported earlyer today, I annonced that I will be attending Texas A&M to fullfill a dream and play TE for them next year. But just like my buddy Kevin Hart It turns out I don't have a school anymore.

At first I was weary when a Fake Mike Sherman called me over the last few weeks to court me to his supple football bosom, but he soon had me hook line and sinker. So much so that I gave myself a cool football nick name, "Notorious," and asked everyone to race me as i was working on improving my foot speed.

It didn't bother me that I wasn't on rivals.com, or even mentioned in on the Aggie message boards. I knew that coach Sherman wanted me there, and we would dominate.

BUT, I just found out it was all a sham. The person I had been talking to the whole time was not Mike Sherman, but Brown, with a southern draw.

I am crushed.

I don't know what to do now.

At least I can go to Texas, Mack Brown still wants me.

***UPDATE: Mack Brown was the ManBearPig Tobey****

So if I'm a little down the next few days, you know why.

(read the two articles I linked and all this will make since)

What if....?

Every year college football is great. Any team from any one of the BCS conferences has a shot at the national title. Every year people of this team or that team get pissed and say "why is my team lower than that team, we are soooooo much better." All of this is what makes the season so fun and captivating. From right now until a playoff system goes in, people will be talking about how great a playoff would be.

Now, I'm a bowl guy. I love the history, the guessing, the rivals that come out of them. I love the little bowls that put some Wac team vs. some Big East middle of the pack team. Every year people talk about how good this conference is, well the bowl games are where its proven.

We here in America and the world we live in, sports, are becoming so obsessed with finding out who is better, yet are the same people that don't want our kids to feel like losers when they play youth sports. It's crazy. The biggest travesty in the world is not having the "best" two teams play for a national championship, yet if little Sally's soccer team get beat by 7 Saturday morning, its cool cuz we don't even keep score, EVERY ONE'S A WINNER! Hypocrites. All of us.

While yes a playoff would lead to some GREAT football, and it would keep the whole one month off for teams that are waiting to play in their bowl, Its not how it works.

But what if.......?

What if we took the top 16 teams in college football and set up a tourney? Looking over BCS rankings this what one would look like.



Interesting huh?

I would love to see USC vs. Oklahoma in the first round. Kansas and Hawaii would be fun as hell. West Virginia would have the hardest path the championship, while again, Ohio State has the easiest.

I know all this would change after this weekend, but damn this would be fun.

Maybe I'm coming around on this whole playoff thing after all. Because as we know, we all can't go on with our lives without the knowledge of who is really the best college football team this year. In fact if this doesn't happen next year, i say we all go on a hunger strike.

But like Tobey finding manbearpig, we all know I'll never go on a hunger strike, and College football will always have bowl games. And I love it.

Welcome to The Big and The Brown

Welcome to The Big and The Brown.

What the hell is this?

It's a blog about whatever the hell one of us feels like writing about. You may not understand what it is, but god damn it, we're laughing and that's what matters. (Big might take it seriously, and he's a bit sensitive and probably gay, but I, personally, don't care what you think.)

Expect sports, musings, jokes about a manbearpig named Tobey, and a lot of misspelled words from Big.

Who are we?

I'm glad you asked.

Big - Big is a large man, hence his name. He's a wealth of sports statistics, to the point where he reminds you of the bastard love child of Sponge and Donkey Lips from "Salute Your Shorts". He's a German which means two things: he hates Jewish people and he likes women shitting on tables. He's been known to frequent radio stations with the hopes of getting on air and shouting the opening verse of Def Leppard's "Photograph".

Brown - Me? I'm a smaller, browner man. I inject the cynical ramblings of a crazy man into Big's sportsy thoughts. It's like Apu, Kumar, Taj, Sameer, and Mohinder all got in a circle and I was the cracker. I've been known to have sex with women and not say thank you afterwards, all in the search for that ideal 8 armed Hindu tech support girl of my dreams. I've been known to frequent abortion clinics looking to hook up with what must be a guaranteed condom free lay.

When do we post?

Whenever we damn well feel like it. So keep checking. I love you all.
