If you’re reading this, it is probably the first legitimate confirmation that I am not dead in nearly a year.

For those of you that haven’t yet had the pleasure of having my mildly disturbing views forced upon you, I apologize. More importantly, I hope you visit as frequently as humanly possible.

To give you fair warning: If you want unbiased opinions about every team with expert, in depth analysis, you should probably tune in to any outlet of the ESPN family. Instead, it’s best you view this as in a similar light to an episode of Always Sunny in
Philadelphia. You’ll laugh; hopefully be entertained; and ultimately leave here with no real sense of accomplishment, movement or self improvement.

Once again, I hope you manage to make it back to waste a bit more time with me.That being said, I think the best way to gently de-flower the newbies while re-engaging the seasoned vets is to blast through a set of hits from the blog. Now it’s been a while, so we have some catching up to do……and I have some gloating to do because…

• Buffalo is going to a Bowl Game!! : That’s right. You read that correctly. The University at Buffalo is going to a legitimate bowl game this year! They’re even playing another college football team! I know!! I don’t believe it either!! I can’t even stop yelling about it!! Sure, we’re probably going to lose our coach Turner Gill within the next year to a “real” football program…Of course the current post-season set up makes their conference championship game against Ball State this Friday essentially meaningless…But I can’t be bothered by any of that now. Nor can any other fan that sat in that empty stadium through the one and two win seasons. This is what we were promised when the school made the jump to the FBS: A bowl game. And now we have it. We’ll worry about and FBS play-off and landing another top-notch coach willing to work for peanuts later. The Buffalo Bulls are going bowling. What’s next? The Cubs winning the World Series?
• Gambling on the NFL is a great way to lose money: Seriously. If you’ve managed to win any money at all betting on the NFL this season, it’s by dumb luck. Spreads that should never be covered are being covered. Teams that look like Super Bowl players one week can’t beat a Pop Warner team the next. All-Pro wide receivers are shooting themselves in the leg with their own gun! There’s just no rational behind this! Just thinking about this makes me want to start bleeding out of my eyes!! Which is why I’m giving up on all of it. I’ll continue to talk about the NFL, but you won’t find one single ounce of analysis on here ever again. It’s impossible to analyze any of it! My prediction: Somebody’s going to win this damn season. I just can’t tell you who. We’ll dig deeper into this later…
• College Basketball is out of the gates: I’m not sure if I can state this any more clearly: If North Carolina won’t lose more than three games this year and one of those losses will not come in the tournament. They’re going to win this year running away. Everybody else should just quit and save themselves the time and effort. While we’re on the topic…
• Every scout in the ACC should be fired immediately: Not one scout looked at Stephen Curry and wanted to even take a flier on this kid? Really? Kids this good don’t just slip through the cracks, and thanks to every ACC school, Curry is now on a mission to destroy every school that is bigger than Davidson…and he just might.
• Sigh…The Cubs…: Do I really need to say anymore? It’s the Cubs! I’ve been asked more than a few times when I’m finally going to give up on this team. After 101 years, it seems like a pretty valid question. But hey…
• Buffalo is going to a bowl game!

Sorry. I’m still having way too much fun with this…
