TAMU's Listeater garners national headlines
Old news, but this is the first story I've seen from a reputable place. Fat ugly girl cuts in line, eats list. Best quote?
As she's up there talking, people started throwing doughnuts at her.
Good old Aggies.

Texas Tech on drugs?
Looks like coaches Bobby Knight and Mike Leach approved purchase of some products containing Ephedra, which is banned in this country. They could be in big trouble if they knew what they were doing, although I'm guessing they had no idea what the products actually contained.

Braves acquire Hudson
The Braves traded three players to the A's for Tim Hudson today. Very good pick up for the Braves. Didn't have to give up much to get him either. John Smoltz and Hudson will be a very nice one-two punch at the front of the rotation.

The NCAA is a joke
Um, so how is beating up your friend and almost killing him a medical issue? This is retarded. I'm at a loss for words.

NFL helmet prototypes
Some pretty cool looking stuff here, unfortunately on a lot of them he doesn't know if they were actual prototypes considered by the teams. Still cool. (via Authentic Boredome - Linkage)

Moron Mets offer Pedro 4 years
I love the way the Mets throw money at all the wrong people. It's as important to the Braves streak of division titles as Bobby Cox and Leo Mazzone.
Now they're offering Pedro Martinez $50 million over four years, in other words two too many years and thirty million too many dollars.

2004 AP All-American team
The Associated Press has released their 2004 All-America team. Derrick Johnson makes the first team and Cedric Benson while Jonathan Scott make the second.
Who the hell is the third team tight end? Texas Tech's Trey Haverty? It's not a good sign if you're on an in-state in-conference team and I've never heard of you.
Update: The 2005 AP All-Americans are posted over at Bevo Sports.

Braves acquire Kolb, move Smoltz into rotation
The moving John Smoltz thing was expected, with the other losses in the rotation and his desire to be a starter again it was inevitable. I'm not a big fan of trading their best pitching prospect for a 29 year old closer with one good year and without dominating stuff.

UT football banquet weekend
It's an important weekend for Longhorn football recruiting. They need to make a big impression to keep Ryan Perrilloux and make an impression on Roy Miller, Patrick Turner, and RJ Jackson.

ESPNU coming March 4, 2005

ESPN is launching a multi-media college sports television network on March 4th, 2005. The very first week will include men's and women's NCAA tournament games. I better get DirecTV and ditch crappy Grande by then.

Michigan DE likes to show his peepee
Turns out that Michigan's starting defensive end is a serial flasher that Ann Arbor Police have been looking for since the summer.
Update: Yikes, it's actually much worse than the first article. I've updated the link to a new article stating that he was doing a lot more than just exposing himself.

Secret BCS ballots
Another opinion on the whole poll conspiracy. The people at Cal sure aren't very intelligent. Some of them actually tried to blame it on Bush.
Wow.

Tom Lemming is an ass
ESPN's recruiting expert
is horribly biased, ranking random crappy white Notre Dame losers way higher than anyone else. Well now he's also trying to influence kids to go there.

UT basketball freshman Mike Williams will play today against Seton Hall. A four-person panel (not from the NCAA) had decided based on the entire hearing record that he should be eligible. (Back story)
