CALEB STURGIS FOR HEISMAN
Photo credit: The Alligator. That leg! That charm! That musical Biblical name! The boys from Gainesville have found an electric new presence, a thunder-legged Legolas lasering long field goals lethally into the nets of Dixie's toodly-oodliest of football gin joints. No, his name ain't Ca-LEG,...
EDSBS CASTING COUCH PICKS, WEEK 3
#11 Ohio State @ Toledo Ohio State IS Johnny Cash IN Walk the Line. Jim Tressel, you can't just keep doing the same songs over and over? And you sure as hell can't do it in front of a rabid crowd of people who've killed people? You are incorrect, record executive/football pundit. Sweatervest will...
PARALLEL UNIVERSE TEBOW ADDRESSES THE MEDIA FOR CHARLESTON SOUTHERN
A parallel universe. Star quarterback Mohammed Al-Tebayii approaches the stage. Praise be to Allah and his only prophet Mohammed, and Go Gators. Madame, please cover your hair and go behind that screen. You are making me nervous with your chin and visible mouth. My religion does not...
OREGON RAPPERS SPIT FIRE
"The girls at Boise State have this weird genetic mustache trait." "They eat fried cat paw in Utah." It's filthy and brilliant, and earns points for having two white guys who don't attempt the Affected White Rapper With Black Accent. Also, they just spend the last minute or so making jibberish...

CURIOUS INDEX, 7/14/2009
A felicitous Bastille Day to all. Say what you will about their food, their attitude towards America, or their wartime record, but don't say the Fransh can't write one hell of an ornery, hateful national anthem: We will be celebrating properly, i.e. with wine and explosives, this...
PAULUS' MOVE IS NOT NEW, AND MAY NOT BE WHAT HE EXPECTS
AP--HOUSTON, TEXAS. Greg Paulus' move to football from basketball may not be all it's cracked up to be, says someone who should know. The kneebrace limits his movement, but even now Dikembe Mutombo can feel the rush of tiny feet beneath him scoring touchdown after touchdown as he backpedals across...
