    This makes no sense considering the Heisman voters are picking Griffin in droves.

    The snarky flowchart was so 2009.

    I really hate the Heisman show. The actual presentation show. It's almost presented as if a candidate could win it or lose it based on how they act during the 40 minutes leading up to the announcement.

    For a story about Tyrann Mathieu, WSJ journal reporter tracks down the narrator of the Honey Badger YouTube video and the scientists who made the original documentary for National Geographic. Funny story, but also excellent legwork.

    Sure seems like a strange use for an outstanding enterprise reporter. But I guess that's the goofy-ass Journal sports section. It's nice to see a sports-reporting operation where the mission is fresh, offbeat stories that no one else has.

    Is Tyrann Mathieu wearing aluminum foil?

    RGIII played with super hero action figures into his teens and has on Superman socks. He may lose the Heisman, but I'll bet he's won a few comic book geek fans tonight.

    Unfortunately, it's like anything else in sports today. Way too much buildup than actual event.

    Just when I was about to give her credit by calling him by his actual name, she yells "RG3!"

    Happy for him, though.

    Griffin strikes me as a really bright, likeable guy. Hope he fares well in the NFL.
