I'm saying it right now: I think a rogue member or two of the CFP Committee was the only reason Pedo State didn't win LAST YEAR'S national title.
They won't make the same mistake twice. Even with a tough schedule, I think the skids will be greased enough that, for the sake of football over all semblance of life, Pedo State will win the national title next January.
So I have an announcement. About 12 or so hours ago, in the last hours of my Vegas experience, I decided to lay $5 at 25-1 that this happens.
The announcement is, given yet another killing at the hands of the football program (or at least that is what is being contended), any such winnings are going to be donated somewhere. Exactly where, I'm not sure, but I have at least one other reader of the blog already on it.
Why did I make this decision?
Deadspin and the ongoing pre-trial of a fraternity at Penn State who has 18 members on trial for a hazing murder!
The defense contends that head trainer Tim Bream is part of the death as well, as live-in adviser and probably used NFL training camps as a template for a gauntlet that pledge Tim Piazza had to run to join the fraternity -- one in which he consumed so much alcohol, he was killed by said gauntlet.
So another deceased person, murdered by the Penn State football program... How many does this actually make now?
Serious question.
A case could be said that all bets regarding football are blood money. This one has taken that to quite a literal further level -- more than I can accept.
Since I can't revoke the bet, should my prediction come true, I'm donating the money.
