Each week I'll pick 7 college games. A Thursday night game and 6 others in the top 25.

College Spread 'Em Seven: Home on bottom

Auburn -14
South Carolina +14 S.C. - SEC defense keeps it low scoring. Go Under.

Rutgers -4 Rutgers - Best Line of the Week.
South Florida +4

Alabama +16 Alabama - See First game.
Florida -16

Ohio St -7 Ohio St - Covered every game so far.
Iowa +7

Purdue +14
Notre Dame -14 Notre Dame - Last weeks 2nd half is catapult for offense.

BYU +6
TCU -6 TCU - Underrated

Ga Tech +10.5
Va Tech -10.5 Va Tech - Not sure about "O", but "D" and "ST" is sick.


Tiger, Tiger, Tiger, Tiger, Tiger, Tiger - That's the list of the last 6 winners on the PGA tour. Wait he's only won the last 5. If you were like me and woke up to ESPN expecting to see one of eleventy Sportscenter episodes, you saw something almost nearly as frequent... Tiger atop the leaderboard.

With a tournament as prestigious as these WGC events Tiger won't let the lead slip away. There was a chink in his armor today, when he bogeyed 17 losing momentum and possibly the low score for the day. He eagled 18. Start the engraving.

Yes he lost the World Match Play Championship and yes he lost in the Ryder Cup as a team but those were match play events. As far as stoke play, and the PGA is concerned the streak is alive. Critics may not consider it a true streak, including is toughest critic, himself.
"I'm going for six in a row on our tour, but not six in a row tournament-wise because I've played two since then and lost both," Tiger. He may not be pushing it, but I am.

If he wins 18 straight stroke play tournaments, I don't think anyone is going to say but he didn't win those two match play tournaments 8 months ago. I can't imagine one person bringing that up. It will be the greatest individual sport achievement I've ever seen or heard of. Because depending on which tournaments he enters the 18th or 19th tournament could be next years PGA Championship and obviously he would have swept the previous three majors of 2007 and the last two of 2006.

So let's not worry about debating and just enjoy what Tiger is doing. You'll be sorry if you don't.
T.O. - A day late? Maybe, but it's better than blowing the whole thing out of proportion and then having to hear everyone deny it. T.O. was the only thing on the ESPN from 11:30 to 4:00. For what, an allergic reaction?

You had to know as soon as you read the ESPN.COM headline "Suicide Try" that you would never know the complete truth. Who knows if he tried to kill himself? Only one person. T.O. He said he didn't, that's enough for me.

What if he came right out at 3:30 and said, "I ingested 35 hydrocodone pills with the purpose of taking my own life". People would suggest if he really did attempt suicide why would he just come out and say it, there must be something else.

I haven't seen anyone the day after they tried to commit suicide. Or anyone after consuming 35 hydrocodone pills. However if I did, it would be someone still in a hospital and certainly not smiling and talking about getting ready to hopefully play an NFL Football game in 4 days. He smiled and looked ready to play.

One more thing, T.O. loves himself. Perhaps more than any athlete in recent memory. T.O. may be the most sculpted player in the NFL. It makes no sense that he would want to harm himself or his body. Only one person knows what happened and what the intent was, take his word for it.

Dear Michelle,
Can we stop with this charade. You have missed 8 or so cuts on the PGA Tour, and are in the process of bombing out and posting the worst score in this weeks 84 Lumber. You haven't qualified for a mens tournament yet.

I have some advice to you. Win something. I'm not talking about Hawaii State Divisional Opens or whatever those were. Win something on the LPGA Tour. Anything at all. Annika Sorenstam has dominated the LPGA for years and she couldn't compete with the men. That's not a sexist remark or a diss to women, just a fact. I don't understand how you continue to get exemptions. The first time you played a PGA event I was interested. I wanted to see how big the gap was. The second time it was already old. Now, the 9th or 10th time whatever it is, it's just outrageous.

Do more people watch because your name is in the tournament? Do the sponsors make more money? I don't understand. Stay in the LPGA. Win something. Let's say you do barely squeeze yourself in and make the cut one day. It's not gonna be enough, your critics will say, "Yeah but it was in the 84 Lumber where only 4 of the top 30 golfers entered". If you stay on the LPGA and win tournaments you could be considered the best woman golfer of all time when all is said and done. You are embarrassing yourself over and over again. Give it up.

Sincerely,
Everybody sick of hearing about your tired ass

This is for all the people all up in arms about the "New Facebook".

(Sarcasm Warning)Well I guess I'm a little upset about this whole New New Facebook where you can hide what others see and whatnot. This is insanity. Where are my rights as a stalker to have as much information as possible, about anyone I want, as quickly as possible, without them having the right to choose whether or not I get to see it. But then again everything that the news feed had on it is just as accessible as it was before the new new facebook and before that when it was the "Old Facebook".

If I looked at Keiths profile and Nathan wrote on his wall, I just click on Nathans name and boom there is Nathans wall with something that Keith probably wrote. Here's another idea for poops and laughs. If you don't want people reading what you write to someone else don't post it on a public viewing wall. Crazy right. And why would you write a new status if you didn't want your "facebook friends" to read it.

Let's see what else does the news feed show. OH when your friend joins a group. Meryl has joined the group "The New Facebook = Stalkers Paradise". Why is that such a big deal. Now Meryl's friends konw she is in a new group. Maybe her friends will see that and say Hm... that sounds like an interesting group maybe I would like to join. Or a friend adds a TV show, Movie, Music, etc to their interests and something clicks in your brain I saw that a commercial for that but haven't checked it out but My friend Stacy seems to like Two a Days it maybe I should check it out.(I won't because it looks horrendously gay) Or they add an interest or a class or anything and for some reason people think it's an invasion of privacy.

If you want privacy send a private message that simple. That's what that is there for. Posting anything on anyones wall or on your own profile is inviting and asking for people to look at it. That is the point of doing it. It's a community of people and friends sharing their comments thoughts and interests. Anybody catching on yet.

Before when you looked at your friends and they had recently updated profiles I would look at them and be like what the hell did they update. Now you know. Does it really bother you that I know that you wrote on someone elses wall. If it does set your profile so only your friends can see it and don't be friends with me or anyone you do'nt want to be.

(SW) Hold on a second I'm gonna take a break from writing this note and write on my friend Julie or Jen or Alyssa's wall but gee golly gosh what if Kassidy sees it, I sure hope she doesn't. And you guys out there better not be writing on Kassidy's wall because now I will know about it. Oh wait when I looked at her profile there it was. So if you're trying to hook up try it in a private message. Anyone catching on yet?

Nobody would have these problems if you didn't just accept anyone you meet drunk one night and talk to and the next day you are "Facebook Friends" because they "Facebooked" you and now you finally crossed the 7549 friends milestone. Also now you know when I made a note and you read this whole thing so I'm happy. And yes I do have way too much time on my hands and no I won't get a job or something. (SW)Gosh I'm just so pissed if anyone is reading this because it came up on someones mini news feed and now they are invading my privacy. Get it yet people.

I hope so.
