Another reason why the coaches' poll is a joke

    Jim Tressel tells reporters he voted Texas No. 1 this week. USA Today says he voted the Buckeyes No. 1.

    Here's the explanation:

    Is this guy trying to take the bullet for Tressel, or is he the one who actually votes?

    Oops! Sounds like ESPN/ABC have their storyline for the week. Ad nauseum.

    I say he took the bullet. He should have know that Tressel said repeatedly that he was voting Texas No. 1. USA Today had an item on it. Good for them for calling the coach out.

    'Course it makes their poll look crappy. Maybe they should change it to the USA Today/ESPN/CoSida poll.

    Uh oh, my ESPN Mobile has just informed me that the color is High Heat Primer. TO maybe questionable for dinner tonight. The Cowboys could not be reached for comment. Doc, back to you.

    Looks like this has been threadjacked by the idiots. Looking for a meaningful discussion on this, so I'll take it over to the journalism side.

    Ok, I know the ESPN bashing is a sport on here, but they took their names off the poll a while back, it's only USA Today's problem now.

    As you were.
