    I hate the lower third scoreboard crawl on FX -- they give the team's ranking almost as much prominence as the score -- at first glance, I thought the score was Michigan State 11, Nebraska 14.

    Holy shit it's snowing like hell in New York. Just ran across the Yale-Columbia game. Looks like December at Mile High Stadium

    Looks like they stole the game cameras from the local 7-11 checkout security cam.

    Great TV, tho.

    If you can find the Albany-Wagner game on Fox College Sports it's even worse. Snow is building up on the camera lens.

    I have been flipping back and forth between that and Mizz-AM.......

    I think a game in a downpour is better than a game in a blizzard, though.

    Still, would be a blast.

    Even fresh snow looks dirty and grimy in Manhattan

    I saw the same thing.

    I also saw one about Paulie from DP, but I couldn't tell what it said.

    Wow FX just looked really really stupid.

    Mizzou's Franklin was getting tackled as he made a pass. Ref ruled it a sack. While Mizzou reviewed it, FX went to Mike Perriera for a long, convoluted explanation as to why the play can't be reviewed.

    Only it was. And it was reversed. And Charles Davis called the guy out, and his defense was, "this is one of those situations where the NFL rule is different."

    Good grief. If you don't know the rule, why are you on?

    I was laughing throughout...."They can't overrule this."

    Call overruled.

    "Well, that's one of the cases where the rules on Saturday are different than the rules on Sunday."

    Fucking tool.

    Oh: Thhhhhhhhhhhhheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssssssseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Messsssssssaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaggggggggggggggeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssss

    Week 9 was doomed when slappy started the thread without naming a single game to be played this week. Boooooooo.
