How Has a Name Change Not Yet Happened for USC’s Gamecocks?

Gamecocks

Alright guys, it’s been said a thousand times.  I know I make fun of the word or at least smile once a day when it’s uttered.  Bottom line is that I just don’t think it’ll ever get old.  And you’re telling me that the University of South Carolina still has the balls (pun intended) to keep the name “Gamecocks?”

In this day and age wouldn’t it be time to potentially make a name switch?  Gamebirds?  How about just a bird name? Do the powers that be at South Carolina not understand that each time a cheerleader waves a sign that says “cocks” that every young person (and old) must be laughing their asses off?

Maybe It’s Not Such a Good Idea to Win the Heisman as a Quarterback: Check out the NFL Careers of the Last 10 Winners

Published by under College,Football,NCAA

Heisman Winners

While the Heisman award is a great honor and clearly represents the fact that you are the best player in all of college, it would appear that winning the award as a quarterback might not be the best idea in the world.

I mean yeah, these guys have to play their best every Saturday, but maybe they could just talk to the board or something and sway them to vote for a running back or in a rare case Defensive end or receiver.

I’m not going to blatantly say “bad luck” here, but the increasing trend of voting college quarterbacks for the Heisman (7 out of the last 10) just might have the Madden effect on these guys.

Tailgating Nation: 8 Reasons It’s Imperative to go to a USC Game At Least Once This Year

USC Tailgate

And I’m talking about the USC Trojans ladies and gentlemen.  Nothing against South Carolina as that is a fine choice as well.   However, the Trojans have been one of the elite NCAA college teams for quite some time now.

Obviously it’s nice to go to a game when you pretty much know your team should be winning by at least 30 points.    It’s almost like you don’t even need to cheer.  Sure you watch the games but the atmosphere itself is electric.

Just go there, have a few beers, and chances are you will end up having a blast.  Here are 8 reasons you should go to a USC game this year.

Sometimes It’s Good to Be a College Quarterback: Willie Tuitama, Arizona

Published by under Football,NCAA

Willie Tuitama

For any of you who follow College Football, you may realize that having the starting quarterback job most certainly has its benefits. Not only are you recognized by everyone in the school, you get free education and you also stay in fantastic shape!

Haha, fantastic shape? Sure but that’s got nothing to do with anything. You get all of the chicks. It’s pretty simple. If there’s any profession I could have that doesn’t really count as a profession, it would definitely be college quarterback

And Willie Tuitama is no exception. Currently, the relative of Junior Seau is the starting quarterback for the Wildcats, and from the looks of it, a ladies man.

Here’s a picture gallery to support my college QB theory.

NCAA Personal Player Profile: Sterling Lewis, Inside Linebacker, Arizona

Published by under NCAA

Sterling Lewis

We know he likes comics, check the bottom left

Given all of the wealth of information out there on NCAA football, it’s very simple to find statistics on a player. It’s easy to find out where he’s from and what his major is. It’s even easy to find out what his favorite foods are.

But does it say anywhere in their Yahoo Profiles or College Roster Profiles what parties they went to? What girls they were dancing awfully close to? How many beers they took down the night before a game?

Of course not. But shouldn’t they? Isn’t this stuff we’re interested in knowing? That’s why I’ve created the NCAA Personal Player Profile which will examine athletes a little bit further than they’ve been profiled.

Our first candidate is Sterling Lewis who is an inside linebacker for the Wildcats.

The Most Entertaining Spirit Squad of the Weekend Has to Go to the Oklahoma Sooners

Published by under NCAA

Sooners Cheerleaders

Once Oklahoma started to pounce on Cincinnati this past weekend, touchdowns were becoming pretty ordinary. I mean what do you do when the game is completely out of hand and you almost feel obligated to change the channel (unless you’re an OU fan)?

Well, clearly you have to watch the cheerleaders. And of all the cheerleaders I’ve seen in this college season, I must say that the Sooners Squad knows how to entertain.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a little cheerleader tossed so high as in these pictures. Plus you gotta love that horse wagon they bring out.

Another Father of the Year Picture: Virginia Fans Start Tailgating Games Really Early

Published by under Football,NCAA

Beer Pong

Good parenting consists of a number of things. Raising your kids to have good morals, a sound foundation for working hard, and teaching them to have a rich, traditional family values is a core component of our culture here in America.

And one of those traditions is clearly tailgating. This father exemplifies the true spirit of the American father by showing his son and his friends the game of beirut (not beer pong damnet).

Might as well teach them early. Forget about the Virginia/USC game, “Chug it! Chug it son! Don’t be such a p*ssy!” Only in America.

Texas Tech Red Raiders Football wins Two Awards: Best Fans and Dorkiest Looking Band

Published by under Football,NCAA

Texas Tech

No clue what they’re trying to be, but that’s dedication

As the College Football season gets underway, us writers out there are going to be getting tons of material. And it’s not of the “he’s going for the Heisman Award” variety. As legions of students prepare for all that is college debauchery, guys like me are going to be there to scoop up the dirt.

And to kick it all off, I decided to start off light. Oh I’m sure we’ll get to muddy drunk pictures at some point, but for now, let’s head on over to Texas Tech to check out some fan dedication and loser band dorks.

Tailgating Nation: Seven Great Reasons to Watch University of Florida Gators Football This Year

Published by under Football,NCAA,Tailgating Nation

Florida Tailgate

It’s almost time for Gators Football ladies and gentlemen. Plenty of sub plots to be going on this year: Will Tebow win the Heisman again? Can this team be the fastest team in the nation as Urban Meyer hopes?

Or should we think of other things like “How hot is the cheerleading squad this year?” and “Which players have a shot at the NFL?”

Whatever your thought is, and however you may wish to interpret this team, here are seven sure fire reasons to keep track of the Gators this year.

Correction: My Favorite USC Football Fan is Gilbert Estrada and his Family

Published by under Football,NCAA

 

Last week, I showed you my favorite USC Football fan Gilbert Estrada. And this week I managed to find his bio!

Born and raised in Los Angeles, Gilbert Estrada earned his B.A. in 1999 and M.A. in 2002 from CSU Long Beach, both in history. After completing his Master’s Thesis, “How the East Was Lost: Mexican Fragmentation, Displacement, and the East Los Angeles Freeway System, 1944-1972,” he went on to work for several non-profit organizations, addressing environmental justice and air quality concerns in California.

Mr. Estrada is currently the Graduate Assistant with LA As Subject, an alliance of research archives, libraries, and collections improving the visibility, access, and preservation of archives documenting the rich history of the Los Angeles region.

OK but I still don’t know how this guy manages to get on the field every week and watch the team practice.

And now his family is in the mix? P.S. My goal is to make this guy famous.
