Though college football fans were treated to a back-to-back pair of dull bowl games, I was able to add one more win and one more loss to my predictions record for the bowl game season. In the first game, played in Pasadena, Calif., the #5 USC Trojans defeated the #8 Penn State Nittany Lions, 38-24, [...]

December 28th, 2008 · 1 Comment

It’s Time for John McCain to Wage 4th-Quarter Rally
October 13th, 2008 · 3 Comments
As a college football fan and political junkie, I see similarities in the seemingly-disparate activities which lead me to believe John McCain can succeed by waging a fourth-quarter comeback over Barack Obama.

Certainly, the prospect of playing Pete Carroll’s squad in Pasadena must [...]
