Its College Football Season

Wed, 03 Sep 2008 21:08:10 PDT

Am I the only alarmed with the amounts of stabbings, drunk divings and shootings decorating our college landscape. I mean it isn't UT footall season till someone gets arrested for a DWI or DUI. Our DT already took care of that one. I live in Austin, I know what it's like to hit up downtown and get completely plastered. In fact, if colleges gave scholarships for that, I would of gotten one. Besides the OU stabbings, and NFL shootings, this has become increasingly the norm. My best friend always tells me the story of when he went out on Halloween and saw one dude dressed as a TV, and the other dude (who was white) painted in black with Cedric Benson jersey and dreadlock wig chasing the TV downtown. That was in reference

Its Offical the Name Sucks

Top of the afternoon to everyone today. I have a big mouth and love to run it. It gets me in trouble sometimes, but I don't care about that. What I do care about is sports. I watch almost everything, and I love to hear what everyone thinks. That's not all I want to talk about. Let me give you some background info. I am 23 and still working on an undergrad. I know, I know, lots of people go to college for 7 years, and they are called doctors (Still love that Tommy Boy quote). I don't mind being the butt end of a joke either. Hell, I will tell you about everything anyways, so just keep coming back. Not every post will be about sports. I will wake up one day and just give you a random post about a chick I banged last night. &nb
