Football snob

I admit it, I am a college football snob. Pro sports? Screw those whiny rich guys. College soccer, golf, lacrosse, baseball? Boredom central.

However, I have come to the conclusion that my life can no longer consist of four months of joy, followed by 8 months of benighted, hidey-hole nothingness.

So I have resolved to follow (as best I can stomach it) another college sport, so I have been keeping at least one cloudy fish eye on basketball. And lo and behold, said cloudy eye watched a gem off the DVR Saturday, as Northwestern annihilated DePaul. The Fish Head felt bad seeing alma mater A cream alma mater B so badly, but then realized the beauty of the situation, as a pasting like that enables the Fish Head to endlessly taunt his DePaul alumni brothers.

Surprisingly, while reading the recap of the game, the Fish Head discovered that Northwestern's perennial patsy bball team is, well, maybe not a total patsy this year. In fact, the Cats roundball team is off to a great start and is highly ranked according to the RPI index.
