Long ago, when dragons that spit lasers roamed the lands, Steve Perry rode pterodactyls made of knives through righteous lightning storms, and Nebraska wasn’t a laughable football program, two brothers were immaculately conceived in an 81 Datsun in the shadow of Sanford Stadium with one destiny: to return football commentary to its old form; obsessive, cruel, full of errors, and substance abuse and dick jokes. And there's John who's a Miami fan, so we were surprised he could even spell.

WEEK 5 POINTS

Another week another round of 4th quarter heart breakers for the Jeez that stole the point lead out of my hands once again. I don't have a lot of time to write this so i'll leave the big recap to Virus since he's obviously watching the games more intently than John and I, hence the demanding point lead at this point. First off. After last week Rob took the 2 point lead to make the total scores
V - 5 FJ - 3 SC - 0
And again this week sees the virus nosin' it out and pickin up the skin once again by a single point. Thanks to a 4th quarter push by Purdue everyone got knocked out of the point spread making it an even point a piece across the board for the Irish picks. Florida picks up a last minute interception to cover their 13.5 point spread, knocking myself and Caned out of the Alabama cover point and putting Virus up a point for calling the Gator cover. The ONLY bright spot in my weekend, the domination of the Hokies by the Yellow Jackets for yet another Ramblin' Wreck upset provides two points for myself and none for Caned or Virus who both picked the 2 year running overrated Beamer train (VIRUS edit: John picked VT to win, but GT to cover. He gets 1 point here). Ohio...sigh. The boys smacked me in the mouth and proved that the team that played Texas was indeed back in the building and ready for the championship run. Caned and I both called the upset and got sent to bed crying after a convincing hawkeye ass kicking. 2 points to Ralph. (Wasn't ralphie the name of the CU Buffalo? Coincidence??!?) Anddddd everyone across the board called the Oregon game and got the two points for an utterly ridiculous showing by the Sun Devils. Sooooo tallying these up we see Virus pull ahead once again and take the week giving him dynasty implications as far as the week standings are going.

Ralph Virus = 7
Football Jesus = 6
Severely Caned = 5 (VIRUS edit because of VT vs GT confusion above)

Which brings the GRAND total up to

Ralph Virus = 12
Football Jesus = 9
Severely Caned = 5 (VIRUS edit because of VT vs GT confusion above)

Someone else is free to cover the in depth game analysis but as far as I'm concerned, go steal your neighbor's cable and watch sportscenter. I'm done.

To be fair, I think John picked GT to cover, but VT to win. He gets another point, I think. But who can tell in that mixed up jumble of a post of his. Jesus, I just read it again and I'm seeing double.
