Ladies and Gentlemen –
It’s hard to be believe that we are at the end of the season and another year has gone by.
Seems like only yesterday Urban Meyer couldn’t remember what he said he remembered to remember about the thing he should have remembered about Zach Smith.
I haven’t seen anybody tap dance like that since a Fred Astaire marathon on Turner Classic Movies, but I digress.
The New Years Day College Football Picks are awaiting you…..
In all fairness, I sent these out a little early “before” you put the lamp shade on your head.
I know, I am really (really) considerate like that.
Enjoy Your Picks….
COLLEGE BOWL GAMES (RECAP)
In the event you were too busy during this Holiday Season to see any of the thrilling games that have been played thus far, do not worry of be concerned.
Your Favorite College Football Prognosticator will break them all down for you.
BEVO HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS: In the event you missed this program on the Longhorn Network on Christmas day, let me tell you what you missed.
Hours and nauseating hours of watching a Longhorn steer eat grass, poop and lick his hooves while Christmas tunes played in the background.
Before you ask, “Yes” I am serious…..
THE FIRST RESONDERS BOWL: Apparently no first responders thought to check the damn weather before the game, because the game was indeed cancelled due to weather.
Two words for you folks……
Weather Channel
THE CHEESE IT BOWL: The only thing more boring than this bowl game is watching bowling itself. You didn’t miss anything, honest.
In other College Football Bowl News…..
The Cadets of West Point ran over the Houston Cougars faster than General Patton dashed across Europe, while posting the first ever eleven win season in program history.
The Mighty Men of Troy Alabama dismantled the Buffalo Wild Wings as well and might I add, it was heart warming to watch the game being played in Mobile Alabama.
I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the Blazers of Alabama Birmingham and the Georgia Southern Eagles (Blue Tide) who both rolled to major wins in their games despite the dismal seasons they left behind them last year.
As for the other Bowl Games on the schedule that have already been played (Purina Kitty Litter Bowl, The Shatter Proof Glass Eye Bowl, brought to you by Prosthetics or Us)…
Let’s be honest nobody cares.

I want to thank you dear readers, the Country Music Superstar Sylacauga Ledbetter and all those that sent encouragement, suggestions and yes, even hate mail to yours truly.
