Well sports fans, Susie Myerson had it right! After Saturday’s Bowlapaloosa of eight games, the inevitable re-shuffling of the standings has produced a new leader and an entire phalanx of prognosticators in hot pursuit. The games also showcased two examples of just how truly, deeply f***ed the sport of college football is as a result of NIL and the transfer portal.
Example 1: In an act of perverse selfishness, Marshall decided that it would be better to forfeit their game against Army rather than play their committed game with a depleted roster. Though, perhaps this act was somewhat understandable given the beat down that FSU took from Georgia after playing their game with depleted roster. I mean, who wants to be embarrassed like that on national television? As a result, that game is designated a PUSH for all prognosticators and no point was awarded.
Example 2: In an act of pathological selfishness, Miami’s star quarterback, Cam Ward, played the first half so he could get his stats, and then, shockingly, opted to sit the entire second half in an effort to protect his draft status. He watched, from the sideline, as the team struggled and ultimately lost their game. Frankly, I’m not sure why any NFL GM would seriously consider bringing on such a selfish, self-involved player…stats be damned!
It’s a good thing the results of our little challenge are so hilarious!
Adnan is the new leader with an impressive 20 points. And Chad, Kieran, and Schafer are drafting along with 19! Other Ben (18), Alex, Sonya, and Tommy (17) are not far behind as well. And this thing could still go sideways as we enter the meat of the playoff round! STAY TUNED!!!
While we wait for the playoff QF games, enjoy these NSFW Susie Myerson scenes!!!
