I'm just an overweight, balding guy who loves all sports. I believe in BCS conspiracy theories, March Madness, spring in Augusta, late October baseball, 4 left turns at Daytona and every man's right to watch sports with one hand in his pants and one on the remote. And I also believe in Leighton Meester!

Speculation, that's all college football is.  The last week or so has generated a lot of talk about Oregon leap frogging Boise State in the polls, even though the Broncos beat the Ducks in the opening game.  Can anyone tell me without hesitation,…

I'm a big proponent of second chances.  Everyone in this life screws up at one point or another.  And it is the decent thing to do to offer a second chance to someone who has.  For example:  I'm pleased that Vince Young has gotten another opportunity to prove he has something to offer the Titans besides love for his mama.  I am a big fan of Pedro Martinez, so seeing him in big game situations after the debacle with the Mets is great.  Ron Artest is currently on his second chance (others would argue it's his 3rd or 4th already, but I digress).  Mike Vick is on…
