Favorite Sports Teams

UCLA Bruins, Florida State Seminoles, Kansas Jayhawks
Favorite Coaches

Terry Donahue, John Wooden
All Time Sports Moment

Most Memorable Game Attended

UCLA 20, USC 19: Nov. 20, 1982. First UCLA-USC game at UCLA's new home field, the Rose Bowl.
Most Unbreakable Sports Record

(1) College football, total points scored by one team: 222, Georgia Tech (vs. Cumberland College), October 7, 1916; (2) Major League Baseball, consecutive games played: 2632, Cal Ripken Jr.

Pac 10, Big 12, Big 10, SEC, ACC, or Big East?

Pac 10, but effectively minus one; I grew up in a time when one rooted for one's alma mater(s), not their conference(s). My two favorite teams are UCLA and whoever is playing USC.

The great debate continues, and I share my opinion on it in my latest piece. I'd also like to hear your opinion so don't be shy!

Hey guys, if you would please read this article on the comparison between Vince Young and Tim Tebow.

This is actually the most important piece to me that I have written, so I kindly ask that you give your feedback on the situation, and help with the promotion of the article.

Thanks as always guys,

Scott,

It's me again and BC$ bashing awaits the reader who is fortuitous enough to come across my articles. Please read my take on Richmond's historic victory and their real national championship. As for Capital One Bowl week, thimble collecting sounds a lot more fun.

Scott,

This just in: The BCS is an illegal cartel and the worst empire since Lenin's commie regime. In any case, I'm looking forward to the Richmond/Montana game Friday! Please read my latest article on the potential existence of racism in sports if you have time. Thanks!

Mr. Pusich:

I haven't had an opportunity to read your responses on my article yet, although I assure you I will.

However, in the future, could you possibly try to contain it to one new comment? I was a little shocked and scared at how full my email inbox was...

Thank you for reading anyway,

Ray

Scott,

I watched Montana/James Madison Friday. Please read about my experiences if you have time. Thanks for being a fellow critic of the Bc$!

I realized the BCS is better than a play-off, and decided it needed to be defended. I'd love your input.
