Who Really Deserves the Heisman Trophy?
12/06/2009
I am a Senior in high school living in Washington DC. Due to the melting pot that DC is, and the distance my parents traveled accross the country to get there, my fandom extends far beyond the district.
My real passion is baseball where I am a diehard Yankees fan.
My dad's side of my family is from Nebraska so I also have a passion for college football (especiall Nebraska football).
My mom's side of my family is from around Pittsburgh, so I am a big steelers fan as well.
Although those are my main focuses, I also follow the NHL, NBA, college basketball, golf, tennis and some soccer.
Although I am still young I consider myself to be a knowledgeable sports fan with a sense of perspective.
Horrible Read. How dare you count McCoy out just like that. He is 13-0 and is a born winner. NO WAY HE GETS SNUBBED TWO YEARS...

I have always thought the Heisman trophy was overrated. I can think of countless snubs, plenty of undeserving winners, and an award ceremony that acts as if the winner is the next President of the United States...
Completely Agree. Just wrote an article saying basically the same thing. I had Spiller and Gerhart switched, but I completely agree with your analysis. Anyone who...

As a Nebraska fan (I have nothing against MIZZOU though) I am very glad we wear classic adidas uniforms. Who have the best uniforms in college...
Ryan Faller replied…
I agree, Thomas. Mizzou's unis don't need any sort of overhaul. But I also have to...
Yeah it is unfortunate that they replaced one of the great rivalries in college football for this crap. As a Nebraska fan I hate Colorado, but...
I see how Crick's stats may make him looks better, but those are a result of Suh. He has been double teamed on EVERY down this...
Hey,
I don't usually post articles on people's boards, but I don't know if this slideshow will get views unless I share it with people. If you have time, check this out. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/257298-rosh-hashanah-sports-figures-who-have-should-take-some-time-to-repent
