So the burnout of another season took it’s toll on the MotSaG…or more particularly YNBA…
Surprised? Not Really. It is tough to come up with brilliant material on a weekly basis when nothing is going on in the college football landscape. Here is a quick list of 20 general happenings over the last few months:
- Tim Tebow did something magical…not quite sure what it was…
- The CBJ made the playoffs and were happy to be there for a week.
- Jamal Berry likes to carry the ‘sticky icky‘ in his car.
- FC Barcelona won the Champions League against Manchester United and an angel got it’s wings.
- Tim Tebow did something philanthropic…not quite sure what it was…
- Carlos Hyde is a poor test-taker, or he is dumb, or he doesnt care, or he just really wanted to attend Fork Union next year.
- Terrelle Pryor looks like he can read a defense and cleaned up his throwing motion (a little), but there are still 4 QB’s on the Penn State roster that are better than him and a few PSU trainers, as well (Source: Any Ohio State Thread on Audibles).
- Ole Miss and North Caolina are in the top 10 in the pre-season polls. Thus fulfilling reason #4576 why polls shouldnt be released until the sixth week of the season.
- EDSBS’s Digital Viking Series has won over a nation of blog readers
- Deadspin…something is missing over there..well..besides Leitch, “Hirshey is the Closer”, and a gentle dose of “This Week’s Apologies”, but hey, they can embed youtube music videos like no other.
- Real Madrid spent over 200 million euros on two players…and that is without including the player salaries for the non-soccer crowd.
- The Cleveland Indians bi-annual YNBA soul killing exercise is in full effect this year.
- We were kind of ‘witnesses’ to BronBron getting faced…in a Ferris Bueller 31-Flavors kind of way…
- The Cavs got Shaq Diesel. Well maybe the Bio-Diesel Version. Doesnt this make Cavs fan hate Carlos Boozer a little more each year?
- The US Men’s Soccer Team had a great and completely unexpected run in the Confederations Cup (Spain…really?) and Landon Donovan has been rejuvenated. Did you hear that? That was Bob Bradley getting up from sucking his thumb in the corner.
- The Browns continue to be the Browns, but it could be worse…they could be the Seahawks (giggle giggle).
- Our Honor Defend’s “Better Know a Buckeye” Series has been top notch work for a slow summer.
- David Beckham came back from Italy to sounds of boo’s and a simple chorus of no one really giving a flying crap about David Beckham anymore. Beckham Experiment = EPIC FAIL
- Rick Nash signs with the CBJ for 25 years. Oh alright…8 years. Sorry Maple Leaf Fans.
- South Carolina really wants Ohioans to leave. It’s like a little kid running a lemonade stand asking someone with a ten dollar bill to get lost.
So first off, we’ve been wondering how we should be doing the “link round-up”. As readers, do you prefer the once-a-week linkage or would you prefer the links one at a time, spread out as they come? Let us know how you like your Buckeye Blogging.
