BCS Headquarters - Lunch Break

BCS Headquarters — Lunch Break

It’s crunchtime at BCS Headquarters and the office is buzzing with activity. From putting together conference summaries to compiling the data from the most recent polls, there’s barely even enough time to take a lunch break. And with Selection Sunday just around the corner, the days are only getting longer for the hardest working chimps […]

BCS Headquarters — October 13th, 2009

It’s been a long off-season for college football’s most powerful chimps, but things certainly haven’t quieted down at BCS Headquarters. Whether it’s the politicians in D.C. or the fans in Utah, there are still plenty calling for a revamped ranking system and better postseason structure.

Well that was the cherry on top of a month-long shit sundae. That’s right, I’m talking about last night’s enthralling finale to the College Basketball season.
I honestly tried to get excited for this game – you had the hometown underdogs, attempting to resurrect their city, against the preseason favorite. But it didn’t take five […]

"It's That Time of Year"  by Harold Billingsworth

“It’s That Time of Year” by Harold Billingsworth

Every year at this time, it’s the same thing. I wake up in the middle of the night, rush to my bathroom, and violently throw up — typically a mix of scotch and bananas. No, it’s not my acid indigestion acting up…it’s March Madness.
I’ll tell you what’s “madness” – having a bracket of 65 teams […]
