The Fiesta Bowl Gets a New Facebook Cover

Boise State's quarterback Zabranski is the second guy from the left. Timeless moments made in seconds sums up that Fiesta Bowl against the Oklahoma Sooners.

It is the best game I have ever been to and certainly one of the greatest finishes in college football history.



Three plays that changed the game.

Bobby Petrino Makes it Big

You know you are a star when someone makes a T-Shirt exploiting your tales of daring due. Bobby P has joined that elite club of having a T-Shirt honoring his latest exploits.

I think this far surpasses the 2004 Liberty Bowl when he coached the Louisville Cardinals and their fans were chanting LSU.

For those that are not familiar with the story, it was his second year of trying to throw the Cards under the bus. In 2003 he became the HC for Louisville, during the season his former boss Tommy Tuberville was coming under fire from Auburn. Petrino held secret meetings with Auburn to replace Tuberville. Once it was exposed, Louisville gave Bobby a second chance and Petrino pledged his loyalty to the Cards.

At the end of the 2004 season Petrino was rewarded with a 10 yr 25 million dollar contract. Within weeks of signing the deal he was in secret meetings with LSU. His then latest scandal broke just before the Liberty Bowl, which is why during the game Card fans were chanting LSU. The general consensus was had Boise State beaten Louisville is a very tough exciting game, Petrino would have been served his walking papers.

My only hope is that Petrino does not get a slice of the action of shirt sales.

British Olympics Make Huge Error

Tthe British Olympic Organizing Olympic Committee has egg on its face. Naturally they want opening ceremonies to rival the ones we saw in Beijing and they are trying to do their best to put on an opening ceremony that will be talked about long after the Olympics end.

However in order to succeed they must follow the rule of due diligence. The asked  the  manager of group The Who, if legendary drummer Keith Moon would like to participate in the opening ceremonies.

There in lies the problem. Keith Moon died in 1978.

CEO of BodyBuilding.com Pleads Guilty

Ryan DeLuca put $20,000 down to buy a web domain called Bodybuilding.com in 1999. He soon found himself straddling a rocket.
In a year, his company reached $1 million in sales. A year later, $5 million. DeLuca’s site combining a store selling dietary supplements, an information center on fitness, and a place bodybuilding buffs could chat propelled Bodybuilding.com to prominence. By 2006, it was the world’s largest fitness website.

As a fellow Idahoan I am very disappointed in Mr DeLuca and his decision to sell that junk to people. I can only guess it was greed motivated. In 2008 I discussed selling his products on my site scoretouchdowns.com and just had a bad feeling about it and am so glad I changed my mind about affiliating my site with his products.

Arkansas Fires Bobby Petrino

I support the Arkansas AD is his decision. Petrino's web of dishonesty left Mr. Long no choice.

Do you agree or disagree with Arkansas letting Petrino go? Please post your comments.

Baseball Cheapshot

The video below will show you one the more egregious cheap shots in sports. Do you think the cheap shot artist should be kicked off the team?

Bobby Petrino is An Idiot

Many of you might know, Arkansas Football Coach Bobby Petrino was injured in a motorcycle accident. No worries he will be fine, not sure the same can be said for his coaching position. He may be looking for a new job.

The Razorbacks have put Petrino on leave. Athletic Director Jeff Long placed Petrino on leave and has put assistant coach Taver Johnson at the helm of the football program, while he, Long continues his investigation.

Last weekend Petrino was involved in a motorcycle accident where his bike skidded off the road and police were called. There in lies Petrino's troubles. Had he been alone as previously stated or with a family member or friend there would be no issues to resolve. That is why Bobby Petrino is an idiot.

While 51 year old Bobby was off on a road trip, his wife and 4 kids were elsewhere. So who does Mr. Petrino have with him none other than a 25 year old "babe" who just happens to work for the football department. Petrino was accompanied by a former Arkansas volleyball player Jessica Dorrell. Dorrell joined the football staff March 28 of this year.

The accident occurred Sunday night after Petrino had spent the day with his wife and then went off for an evening bike ride. He met up with Miss Dorrell in a shopping mall parking lot and then took off for his joy ride. Dorrell was uninjured and Petrino was not wearing a helmet.

Petrino only informed AD Long about Dorrell minutes before the police report was made public. Petrino apologized and said he had been concerned about protecting his family and keeping an “inappropriate relationship from becoming public.”

What a load of bat crap. Bobby if you want to protect your family from you, dont go straying on your wife.

Petrino signed a new contract with Arkansas in 2010. The contract  had a clause in it that would allow Arkansas to dismiss Petrino for “engaging in conduct, as solely determined by the university, which is clearly contrary to the character and responsibilities of a person occupying the position of head football coach or which negatively or adversely affects the reputation of the (university’s) athletics programs in any way.”

Arkansas is a class act and I would expect Mr. Petrino to be in the marketplace looking for a job. I do not see any way they can retain his services and keep their good reputation.

That is my opinion, whats yours please leave a comment.

Green Bay Packers Tell Nike No Thanks

The Green Bay Packers have declined to wear " The Swoosh's"  new uniform for the 2012 season.This rejection includes the uniform design and fabric. Nike is offering the teams a different fabric this season that is supposed to be lighter when wet. Nike put it quite simply.

"The Green Bay Packers have chosen to stay with their traditional design aesthetic as well as their former uniform fabrication for the coming season."

Would you expect anything less of a team who is so rooted in the NFL's history? Read More

New Orleans Saints Bounty Hunters: Are They The Hunted?

The bounty hunters of the New Orleans Saints just might see themselves as the hunted. No players or teams will be placing a bounty on the heads of Saints hunters. However the legal system may.

The NLPA warns the players to lawyer up, there might be criminal prosecutions. Typically these type of cases are difficult to bring in the arena of pro sports, however I would agree with it in this case.

Roger Goodell has warned there will be other disciplinary measures brought against players that participated in the pay for hurting the opponent scheme launched by Sean Payton and the New Orleans Saints.

Personally I felt Goodell let HC Payton off with a slap on the wrist. A one year suspension? Whats up with that? To me it was a nothing punishment, just smoke and mirrors. So what if Payton cant earn $6 million next season. The dude has plenty of money and can come back after one season.

In 1963 Pete Rozelle was the NFL Commissioner and in my opinion a much tougher boss that Goodell. Football stars Paul Hornung of the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions star Alex Karras were each given indefinite suspensions by Rozelle. Their offense was betting on games, not throwing them just betting them.

It took a year of powerful lobbying by Green Bay coach Vince Lombardi and others to get Hornung's and Karras's suspensions lifted. Hornung promised never again to visit Las Vegas or attend another Kentucky Derby while playing in the NFL.

Payton  was willing to risk the lives and careers of other people to advance his own agenda, getting the Saints to another Super Bowl. Since no sacrifice by his opponents was too much to pay for what Payton wanted, then he just be punished in-kind.

Payton's DC was given an indefinite suspension and in my opinion, so should Payton. He was just to indifferent to the health and lively hood of other people........screw  Sean Payton.........pro football is better off without him.

Anyhow that is my opinion, please share yours.

Kentucky Hoops Fans Give Sports Fans a Blackeye

Kentucky fans dance around a fire on State Street as they celebrate Kentucky's 69-61 win over Louisville in an NCAA Final Four semifinal college basketball tournament game, Saturday, March 31, 2012, in Lexington, Ky.

I hate to see this when a team wins and its fans turn the celebration into riots. It gives all sports fans a bad name. We have seen it all across the country in different sports, like when Boston finally won a world series.

Seriously Kentucky fans act like you have been there before--- because you have. READ MORE
