Fla. St. shaken by fraud scandal

Headline in the Chicago Tribune and shakes up many of the early entries in the Rocky Bowl. Tough luck says several of the participants who have not submitted their picks as yet. They all claimied they we going with Kentucky all the time.

Nira "Sis" Smith states: "YOU $%&^&%*%* brother of mine, how can you not let me redo my pick". Well this co-commish is not only GOOOOOD LOOOKIN but fair as well. So...........................Sis, lets not forget my christmas present.

If you have picked Florida State over Kentucky please send me an eamil and you can change your pick to Kentucky if your panticked by this news. BUT YOU MUST KEEP THE SAME NUMBER for Kentucky as you had for Florida State.

We hope this is fair to all of the early enteries.

Why would you disclose information on the blog on how to pick your teams? Isn't that part of our job to investigate each team? Yes, I am well aware of Florida State and their suspensions.

Shouldn't everyone's selections be blind without any influences from those who will be participating?

Did you also here that Ohio State has no chance to win........as the players are still crying over the disaster in last year's Final Bowl Game? Why don't you tell everyone to pick LSU since the Buckeye's play in a weak conference and their 3 non-scheduled games were against Junior College's? Maybe that will help everyone win the Rocky Bowl so we can all have the same records and get our $20 back!!!

Cut the commissioners some slack. They wanted to leak the staff changes at Washington but they aren't playing in a bowl game. Again.

I take offense at the implication that Ohio State has no chance. Sure, The Big Ten's out of conference schedule included only 9 wins over teams with a winning record and only 2 over BCS conference opponents. I know that Duke's only win in the last decade was against Northwestern this year. And of course, there was the OSU defense not being able to prevent an 8 minutes drive game ending drive by Illinois.

I must respond. I actually had Kentucky with 12 of my 528 points. I think the commissioners are trying to get us all to waste a bunch of points on Kentucky so they can put 1 point on FL St and knock us off with the biggest bowl upset ever--sneaky

OK...now that I can breathe after this initial bowl game, I think that Rocky or Jim was Florida State's "Deep Throat" so that they could rig the event (as they always do). Has anyone really audited the Rocky Bowl finances in the past??? Is anyone else curious how Rocky can afford that big screen TV in his family room on a floor salesman salary? How about Jim buying that BIG house in the Bay area? Was that an Olympic size pool I saw in your family Christmas picture? I just say..if it looks like a Cougar, smells like a Cougar, then it must be a person who couldn't get into the UW...or BCC at that :-)

Is it really fair to help people who don't follow college football by alerting them to this and advising that they change their selection? I have Kentucky as
a 25 point pick - how am I going to climb out of the cellar when the man is working against me?

This event is clearly being run by Communists.

Okay... so you throw a bone to your sister... howz about a similar "do over" for those knuckleheads who picked UCLA over BYU?

Remember, this is a good spirited gorging of those foolish enough to put their egos and hard earned cash on the line trying with flailing futility to impress those more fortunate than themselves. Winning isn't everything... but losing certainly is. Even a blind monkey could probably keep that stinking toilet seat at arms length (though chimps like to throw pooh around... so they may relish a boomerang shaped pooh device)... but somehow these hairless apes and their endless folly seem to attract that Icon of Shame... you know, like people who 'collect' Prince albums. Sad, pathetic, and miserable. Stuff Dicken's would have written about...

"It was the Best of Times, it was the worst of times..." he'd say. Then launch into a social diatribe about the feeble minded and their going against Ohio State in the BCS bowl final.

Charles was quite a moralist.

In our own lives, however, disregarding those great figures like Kant, Schopenhauer, or Hume, we have to make hard gambling choices... so I prefer to ask myself, as a way of 'phrasing' the question... "if Florida State has some trouble with suspension... what would Vegas do?" Well... they'd circle the game and in a few cases give you your money back... but in no way would they let you change your bet.

Here... Here ... This was totally Rocky's idea. Doug and Jim were over ruled.
