My preseason college football rankings
The college football season getting underway tomorrow (USC vs Va Tech on ESPN) and the College Gameday Preview Special was on tonight so I am more than fired up about it. I'll have something to do for about 10 hours a day the next sixteen Saturdays. I'm sure Christina is fired up about it as well. (Ha!) In honor of the occasion (and the overhyping of crappy teams like Florida, West Virginia, and Cal), here's... Continue reading

Football season is finally here
It's been a long time since the Horns played their last game at the beginning of January, and it ended on a sour note with a loss to Washington State in the Holiday Bowl. So it's great to finally have a new season underway. The first practice of the season was yesterday evening and there's tons of information all over the place about it. The Statesman has news but not near as in-depth or... Continue reading

Good news, bad news for Chris Simms
First the bad news... Chris and Danielle Puleo were married last Sunday. Danielle and Chris went to high school together in NJ. He is currently a quarterback with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and she works at Fazoli's. Nice job Chris. (Okay, okay. She was the manager of her father's two NYC restaurants, which I'm pretty sure is a much bigger deal.) Congrats Chris. And for the good news... There is some buzz about second-year veteran...
