WEEK 7 POINTS - I KNOW ALL THERE IS TO KNOW ABOUT THE CRYING SHAME
After a 3 day drinking binge, the Jeez returns with the tally of the heartbreaking week that left all three of us here shaking our collective heads and hiding our team shirts under jackets (thank god for fall). Let's get to what everyone wants to know. Vanderbilt...I'm going to make this short because I don't enjoy vomiting in my own mouth as much as people would think. Georgia is hurting right now and I think it's about time for Richt to start cleaning house. Martinez has to go, our defense is a far cry from the dominating, intimidating red wave they used to be and one sack of the Vanderbilt quarterback (they did get one didn't they?) is just not acceptable. Maybe if they got some of those RIDICULOUS mohawk haircuts they might scare a high school team or two but that's about the best they can hope for. If there's one thing I've learned since I've been a football fan it's this...conservative football does not breed champions, it may keep a number next to your team's name but that's not what we're going for here. When you give up big air plays to one of the laughing stocks of the SEC, not to mention allowing a 4th and 5 to be converted with a game on the line that never should have been that close to begin with there are problems that need to be addressed. The plus side (wince)? Now's the time to throw Stafford in as starter for the rest of the season. The SEC is out of reach and we're one victory away from a bowl game with Miss. St. coming up next week. It's time Stafford got in there for four quarters, got his ass kicked, got frustrated, make himself a leader to the boys standing in the huddle next to him and figure out a way to win. He needs confidence desperately right now and the boys around him need to be able to believe that he's going to lead them to the endzone instead of the sideline when he starts barking out commands. Also, he needs to get a first hand look at Florida, Auburn, AND Georgia Tech because these are three teams that are going to haunt his dreams for the next four years as a Georgia Bulldawg. I don't expect him to win any of those games this year, but sometimes the best experience is a good ass kicking at the hands of better teams.
Next off. Miami. I don't have a lot to say about this incident that has been reiterated 20 times an hour on ESPN so I'll make this short. The shit was ridiculous and disgusting. The way I see it, it's an HONOR to wear that sticker on the side of your helmet. You haven't proven yourself just by getting to walk out on the field, you prove yourself every step you take on that field for every year you spend at that university . In the case of my boys, it's a fucking privilege to wear that G on the side of your head and to rip through that banner between the hedges (not that they're playing like it). You represent yourself, a 90 thousand seat stadium full of proud fans, the history of your program, and an entire nation of fans across the country with your as well as other team logos on their chest. Coker has lost control of his team and needs to go. Not only that but half that group of spoiled little thug wannabes need to be completely cut from the program and trade in their helmet for a paper waffle house hat. Then maybe they'll appreciate the game we love so much.
Now to the points. One again the Caned one has failed to turn in his points which might have been a better week to do it since it was more or less an 8 point week after I fucked up and forgot that Virginia Tech/Boston College was a thursday night game. I missed the call by a long shot anyway so that game is scratched. I'm up for a debate on whether or not the entire week should be scrapped and forgotten but until I hear a good reason, here they are.
#2 Florida - 10 @ #11 Auburn - 27. The one time in my life I've ever cheered for Tuberville and hopefully the last. Plenty of Chris Leak hitting the dirt and angry Urban Meyer. Beautiful. Now ranked #4 in the BCS poll behind a struggling USC team that will fall to either Oregon or Cal if not both, and a Michigan team that has to take on the #1 Buckeyes at home at the end of their season, Auburn looks poised to finish out their schedule and cruise into a championship game this year. Anyway, both of us called this one.
FJ - 2 RV - 2 SC - 0
Michigan - 17 @ Penn State - 10. Both of us called the wolves to take it and both called for the points BUT, Penn State decided to push at the last second sooooo.
FJ - 3 RV - 3 SC - 0
USC - 28 @ Arizona State - 21. Man USC just can't put anybody away anymore. A close when at Sun Devil Stadium and a last minute cover killer.
FJ - 5 RV - 4 SC - 0
Kentucky - 0 @ LSU - 49. What the hell happened to that tough wildcat team that gave the gators a run for their money for three quarters? You know what, I don't care if it's unorthodox, i'm DONATING my point to the Virus for making this "fuck-it" award nominated pick of the season.
FJ - 5 RV - 5 SC - 0
So the brothers share a skin this week and a heartcrushing defeat. I'm going to go start drinking again.
Total Points:
RV - 23
FJ - 21
SC - 10
Skins:
RV - 3
FJ - 2
SC - 0
Just as a side note. Can someone PLEASE tell Tony Korheisenweimershmidt how ridiculous he looks? That dude looks like he belongs more in a depression-era soup line with a hole in his shoe then he does sitting in a Monday Night Football booth. Did they find this guy throwing sawdust on vomit in the men's restroom at Giants Stadium or some shit? I hate that guy. Whatever.

Hey man, Kentucky looked really good in that game...right up until kickoff.
Here's a lesson people: When the Virus picks an upset, put all you've got on the favorite. See my Iowa St. over Nebraska special 2 weeks ago and my Navy over Rutgers last week (honestly, 2 upset picks, 2 shutouts...unreal).
