    Florida Gators, San Francisco 49ers, Chicago Blackhawks, Atlanta Braves, Miami Heat, Miami Dolphins

  • All Time Sports Moment

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    Florida v. South Carolina 2006: Spurrier v. Meyer, 3 blocked kicks on one of the best kickers in NCAA, kept title hopes alive

  • Most Unbreakable Sports Record

    Gretzky's career point totals - he has more assists than the next guy has total points

  • Ruth or Mays?

    Ruth. The movies about him were more entertaining.

  • Unitas or Montana?

    Montana.

  • Jordan or Russell?

    Jordan. I'm too young for Russell.

  • Gretzky or Orr?

    Gretzky, but I tempted by Orr. I played defense for 10 years.

  • Pele or Maradona?

    Pele.

    Sampras. I don't like Federer's hair.

    Tiger. He hasn't even peaked yet.

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

    SEC.

    David Lynn commented on Why The Non-BCS Teams Don't Deserve a Chance Under The Current BCS

    While I agree with you that if Texas and Florida/Alabama win out they should get into the BCS championship, I do think TCU should slide in...

    Dude have you checked out the newest class coming in next year? I know a lot of things can change, but they just posted this on ESPN this morning and the Gators are dominated this recruiting class.

    Meyer and staff, as of now, have a verbal from the #1 and #2 ranked Safeties in the country, along with the #2 Athlete and the #3 RB.

    Pretty sick...

    I've spent the past several weeks adding to a piece dedicated to one of the father's of college football, Knute Rocke. In time for his dedication tomorrow at Notre Dame Stadium, I present to you the true and inspiring story of the most renown coach in the game:

    Don't be shy, and as always, feedback is appreciated.

    Wow have you seen BT's new write up about USC being the new "U". I think he was in drunk old man mode or something because he was raving about how USC was far better than UF and how the PAC-10 is superior...it's almost like someone stole his password...

    craziness...

    He actually said that Mike S is "shut down city" Mike lol because I didn't respond to a stupid reply of his. lol

    Hey Nick,

    Much has been made about the amount of Urban Meyer's new contract given the current economy, but see why I think he deserves it. Thanks!
