College Bowl Pickem 2012
— Dave in Texas

I started renewing last year's group but probably screwed that up, so here's a new one. Over at Yahoo, pick sports, fantasy, College Bowl Pickem.

Group id is 30165

AceofSpadesHQ 2012 Bowl Games

password is paulanka

To keep it interesting (relatively) I decided we'll do confidence points again, so you pick a winner and assign a point value from 1 to 35 (yes, there are 35 friggin bowl games) to each pick which represents the total number of points you get for a correct pick for that game. So for example if you're not sure about Notre Dame vs. Alabama you'd probably assign a low point value like 1, and if you just know in your heart that Fresno State is gonna kick SMU in the balls you'd assign them a high point value. Say for instance, 35.

Something like that. Sign up, enjoy. Talk shit. You know, the usual stuff.

3 No Cheerleader picture to go along with the post? I'd say that's a personal foul, 15 yard penalty.

7 Did Rob Parker really call RG3 a cornball brother this morning on ESPN for possibly being a Republican and having a white fiance? Yes, yes he did.

9 I will say this about RGIII. He could be dating out of his species and the people around here wouldn't care. He has momentarily brought excitement back to Redskin Nation.

No Cheerleader picture to go along with the post? I'd say that's a personal foul, 15 yard penalty.

And an additional 15 yards for unsportsmanlike conduct.

13 This is Howard Cosell. The college bowl picture is as clear as glass. I think Brown will go all the way. Number 1. Or Number 2.

"HeÂ’s not really. Okay, heÂ’s black, but heÂ’s not really down with the causeÂ…HeÂ’s kind of black, but HeÂ’s not really the guy you want to hang out with. HeÂ’s off to something else. We all know he has a white fiancee. People always talk about how heÂ’s Republican. ThereÂ’s no information at all. IÂ’m just trying to dig deeper into why he has an issue."

Any word about Russell Simmons' new Aryan girlfriend?

Is Simmons still blaque?

'bama is going to smash ND. But, what do I know. I don't even know who the Sooners are playing. The bowl season isn't exciting me this year.

19 I stand firm in my belief that I will be able to fuck up my picks more than you fucked up creating the group.

The SEC will continue its anal raping of the Sooners as the A&M Aggies of Johnny Football fame are playing them in the Cotton Bowl on January 4th.

25 " 'bama is going to smash ND. But, what do I know. I don't even know who the Sooners are playing. The bowl season isn't exciting me this year." The Boys of Bama will indeed skulldrag the Irish. Your Sooners are facing Johnny F'n Football. Good luck with that.

Be the first to define it as the Urban Dictionary doesn't have a definition yet.

And half the distance to the goal for palpably unfair act

31 Susan Rice withdraws her name for consideration for State. So that means Horse Face for State and Jew Hating Hagel for Defense.

32 Be the first to define it as the Urban Dictionary doesn't have a definition yet. Cornball brother -- a phrase popularized by a former ESPN commenter to describe a melanin enhanced football player with enormous potential yet chooses to have a less then melanin enhanced girlfriend and who also is suspected of being a Republican. see also: House N*gger, Uncle Tom

Amazingly, Susan Rice threw herself under the Obama bus when ordered by the most ethical administration in history. Or something.

His parents told the WaPo they raised him not to see race (considered "the most insidious racism of all" in the 21st century), so there you go.

He seems like a decent kid. Hate to see the baiters (baters?) take him apart.

When we invaded Iraq in 2003 it was bad if our solders (marines) displayed the American flag. (Corporal Chin) [W]

In Afghanistan (pending issuance of a new manual) it will be bad for soldiers to criticize the enemy. [0]

37 Soona, I think your guys have a good chance of handling A&M. And ND might just have a surprise waiting for those who blindly worship the SEC. With all the bottom feeders Bama, Georgia and Florida got to play in conference this year it's no wonder their records are so "healthy".

38 Wow, what a slate of craptacular bowls this year.

39 OT. Did Norelco fire Santa this year? Haven't seen any ads. Did see Santa in Mercedes though.

40 He seems like a decent kid. Hate to see the baiters (baters?) take him apart. I watched him in one game this season and thought, 'Hall of Fame' material. Also, thought it ruined the chances of the Philadelphia Eagles sending another washed up, over-the-hill QB to Washington. Fooled 'em once though.

44 I'd like to cheer for the teams where the # of players who can spell their names is greater than the number of players who have been arrested.

Can someone help me out?

Posted by: Mr. Moo Moo at December 13, 2012 12:21 PM (HDgX3)

45 I'm so old I remember when the KKK would get up in arms over a black man having a white girlfriend. Now I'm supposed to believe that a black man is getting upset over another black man having a white girlfriend? Wake me up when this is over, and the fires have burned out. Because this has to be a dream. And not the Martin Luther King kinda 'I have a dream'.

I always heard that was having their eyes on the prize.....mainly because it pissed off whitey when it happened.

Posted by: Â© Sponge at December 13, 2012 12:31 PM (UK9cE)

47 Damn, I thought we might get to have a good cfb discussion here. Maybe even an all in good fun little conference flame war, but noooo. Dad blamed thread stompin' bloggers.

48 One year I won a Bowl Game pickem after spending literally 1 minute circling random teams. It's all luck.

Posted by: USS Diversity at December 13, 2012 12:32 PM (85EaA)

49 I went to yahoo dot com. Clicked on sports. No "fantasy" tab came up. On an andriod. Is that why?

Posted by: teej still says go K-State and delurks for cfb at December 13, 2012 12:44 PM (Xi3UG)

50 mainly because it pissed off whitey when it happened And 'whitey' yawns while the black dude picks up the white sheet with the eye sockets, the burning cross, and marches in front of the camera... and keeps his job? WTF X infinity.

Posted by: Schrödinger's cat [/i] at December 13, 2012 12:47 PM (feFL6)

51 Damned straight that Fresno State is going to kick SMU in the balls. We did it when they were in the WAC, and we'll do it again!

Posted by: Smokey Behr at December 13, 2012 01:55 PM (QyeW7)

52 thanks very much for setting it up I'm sucking so bad at NFL fantasy this year is gonna be some positive karma coming my way.

Posted by: waelse1 at December 13, 2012 02:44 PM (9/5xn)

So, will someone post a direct link?

All I can find is the fantsy pro pickem' I got in late on and then stopped playing because picking at 50% isn't winning. No fantasy college pickem bowl game dodah. No cheerleader pics either.
