As people know, I am not for lowering the bar when it comes to BC sports. But I do want to congratulate Spaz for getting this team to a bowl. Few outside the program thought we would be in this position come November and even in the watered down postseason, going to a bowl is [...]

This is all the BC football you’ll get for two weeks, so enjoy it. Can Spaz rally the troops again? Will CMU give us another scare? We will soon find out.I will not be online during the game. Leave your thoughts and comments below.
And Happy Birthday, Mom.To celebrate the day (Halloween, not my mom’s birthday), here’s a song that should be a Halloween classic, but doesn’t get the respect it deserves. My cousins and I used to rap to this in their basement when it came out, until one of them became so scared of it that our [...]
The NFL odds for this week’s matchup between NFC North rivals Minnesota and Green Bay may take a backseat to the hype surrounding Brett Favre, who is making his return to Lambeau field, but this time as a Viking, which may bring some heat from Packer fans.

I have some sad news to report…according to the picture above from ESPN.com, Baldwin is dead and more troubling, he appears to now be a ghost. I leave it to BC Theologian Peter Kreeft, who has written about ghosts and Catholicism in the past, to explain why Baldwin did not ascend into Heaven. As for [...]
I hadn’t heard from China Jack in a few weeks, so I had no idea if he was still alive or not. The dude does drink a lot.
But Gavin and Jack popped up again with a spot-on spoof of the Colbert Report. Really, it’s stunning how much a Chinese guy has the Colbert mannerisms down. [...]
Wah wah the Steelers defense isn’t as good as it was last year. They suck and can’t hold late-game leads and we’re only 5-2 wah wah.
Seriously, I was getting tired of all the nonsense chatter about the defensive struggles. Sure, they weren’t playing as well as the 2008 squad in the first few games, but [...]
