College Football Hotties 2009 – Vol 5

OK, I’ve ranted long enough about the Billion Dollar Yankees and Lovie “Idiots Guide to Coaching” Smith.  Let’s have some fun.  Bring on the college football hotties.

After last weeks loss ASU fans should be hiding their faces.  Oh wait, not you!  As a matter of fact let’s ditch the Pink jacket.  Thanks Dirty!

The Wolverines are going down faster than a drunk coed at a frat party.  Not sure about this Wolverette going “down” though.  After further review it looks like she has a pair of scissors.  Yikes!

How can you do a post like this and not give love to the Gators?  They have the #1 team in the land and some of the hottest fans around.

Look at this Wisconsin girl go.  Daddy would be so proud.

The NC State cheer squad by the pool.  Are they ripped or what?  I am thinking about diving but the pool didn’t give me that idea.

This gorgeous hottie is a Playboy model but I also know she is from Texas and a Longhorn fan.  Judgement call here but I think it was OK to use her in the post.

Em-BEAR-assed

Disappointing is a good word.  Upset is another good word.  Embarrassing is probably the best word.  But surprised, not necessarily. 

This was coming.  I saw it.  I am sure others saw it coming.  Most Chicago Bears fans though, not so much.  They bleed blue and orange and believe.  And why not believe.  You get Jay Cut and Pace and the offense is ready to go.  The defensive players love Marinelli.  Things look good, right?

Not so much.  A combination of injuries, bad play calling, and poor coaching has led this team from the rosey path to a dark, dead-end street.  The die hards with their rose colored glasses must be beside themselves.  This past Sunday must have been their Shock and Awe.

The season is far from over.  It is very possible they could go 6-2 in the 2nd half of the season and still get a wildcard.  Realistically they will be lucky to go 4-4 and finish .500 on the season.  And how embarrassing is that? 

I don’t care that they have had some injuries.  All teams do.  Great coaches get the most out of what they have and what Lovie had was a playoff quality team.  He gathered that defense to rile them up, motivate them after going down 21-7.  So how did that defense respond?  They gave up another 20 points.

I’ve seen some bad Chicago Bears teams.  I can remember games dating back to the mid 70s and at no time have I seen a team let down their fan base as much as the 2009 Chicago Bears.  This team had potential to win 11 or 12 games.

There were also bad coaches like Abe Gibron, Neil Armstrong, Dick Jauron and Dave Wannstedt.  However Lovie fires a Superbowl coordinator and tells fans to trust him that he knows what he is doing.  Since the big game the Bears have gotten worse each season.  Now Lovie has taken over the D-Coordinator position, in addition to his full-time job and is sucking big time.

I am embarrassed to be a Bears fan right now.  I am sure most Bears fans are.  The most disappointing thing is that there isn’t much you can do.  What are you going to do?  You can’t fire Lovie in the middle of the season.  Who becomes head coach, Toub, Marinelli or ‘gulp’ Turner?  Ahhhhh, Jane, stop this crazy thing.  You could fire the GM but he has guaranteed money on the table.  He isn’t going anywhere.  The only guys I could see being sacrificial lambs might be O-Line Coach Harry Heinstand, DB Coach John Hoke and possibly LB Coach Bob Babich. 

However, if the Gods are smiling down upon Beardom the Bears Organization with give the old heave ho to Lovie, Turner, Angelo and the rest of the coaches at the end of 2009.

Random Thoughts

OK, Deep Thoughts Jack Handy I’m not but I haven’t posted anything of substance in a while and I feel a rant coming on.

It has been 9 seasons since the Yankees last won a world championship.  In monetary terms that is about $1.4 billion in player salary over the course of those 9 seasons.  The payroll of the 2009 Yankees alone…

When you are $63 million better than the #2 team in baseball you ought to win the championship.  Hell, my 10 year old son could manage a team with a $208 million payroll.  The Yankees argument is “we pay the luxury tax and spread our wealth to all of the other teams”.  GREAT, what has it got those teams.  It helps Kansas City do what?  Rehab the stadium?  Nope, that was mostly public and other private funds.  Get better players to challenge in their sad ass division?  Nope.  They pretty much still suck. 

The economics of baseball don’t work and it is certainly a sign of the times.  The Yankees and their over priced Roid’ boys won.  We can’t take anything away from them.  I actually like Jeter and Matsui so I am happy for them.  But I’m not happy with the situation.  Baseball is soon to be the way of the many extinct sports leagues if they don’t wise up and find a better way to level the playing field.  Wouldn’t it be nice if teams like K.C., Seattle and Oakland actually had a snowballs chance in hell once in a while.

Enough about baseball.  What is going on with the Chicago Bears?  They get Jay Cutler and the offense goes…BACKWARDS.  OK, I didn’t think the offense would be league’s best but I thought we would improve coming off of last season.  No, they look like shit.  Jay Cut runs for his life half of the time and really has no reliable receiver to look at when things get rough.  Olsen regressed, Hester is always banged up and Forte can’t run.  The offensive line went from fair to suck in one season.  You add a healthy Orlando Pace and go from fair to suck?  I don’t get it. 

My guess is the coaching and player development SUCK!  Cedric leaves and gets better.  But not just better, we’re talking best in the AFC better.  Orton leaves and get better.  Not just a little better, we’re talking top QB rating in the NFL better.  And, from a coaching perspective, it is a terrible group.

Ever since Rivera left the D-Coordinators position after the SuperBowl in 2006 the defense has gotten worse.  The offense is consistently poor.  Turner is a terrible coordinator.  Lovie who is both the head coach and D-Coordinator is unable to wear both hats.  This experiment isn’t working and they are watching the season get flushed down the toilet.

I really hope they can turn things around but a small part of me hopes they do only win 7 or 8 games and Lovie and the whole lot of them get launched in favor of a Dungy or Cowher.  We can only hope

 

Happy HottieWeen from BPD

 

College Football Hotties Vol. 4

Sorry I’ve been away so long BPD fans.  Business trips have pulled me from my blogging duties but now I’m back.  On with the show…

Thanks to Maxim for this college hottie!  She certainly has my Buckeyes stirring.

Rutgers may lack a big time talent this season but this fan is certainly a find.

Some cheerleading hotties from Alabama A&M

Wildcats are looking really good this season…really good.

The beautiful USC Song Girls.

One of the Gators all-star tight ends.

Flacco might be gone but the Hens still look good to me.

BC put up a good fight against Notre Dame but they still can’t find a way to win on the road.  I can understand why they’re home sick.

BPD has got to show some love to the Ohio Bobcats.  Meeeeeow!

Finally I’ll give some props to the hotties of UConn.  RIP Jasper Howard

College Football Hotties 2009 Vol 3

OK, so the Chicago and the USA didn’t get the olympics.  Whatever!  It was a nice effort and Chicago is one hell of a city.  Moving on…let’s see some of this weeks college hotties.

That is a heck of a ‘non’ jersey that girl is wearing.  She certainly does ASU proud with that look.  Now just take that look out to the tailgate.  We’ll be waiting.

What can I say?  They are excited about the Cocks!

Auburn?

or Tennessee?

TCU is looking pretty good this year.

The Washington Huskies are starting to look better and better.  We’ll see if they can actually win on the road in South Bend.  Put up a good fight boys, these girls are waiting for you.

Wow are the Cougars brutal or what?  Thank goodness they have some awesome hotties to pass the time.  What happened to the tough WSU defense?

NFL Cheerleaders 2009 – Pt 1

I too often forget our more mature women in the world of football.  No, I’m not talking MILFs or cougars.  I’m referring to the NFL Cheerleader.  Now I do prefer the female college football fan when it comes to partying and overall hotness, but when it comes to cheerleaders the NFL has a slight edge.  Enjoy!

College Football Hotties 2009 Vol 2

The top teams keep taking a tumble.  Who’s next?  Florida?  Alabama?  I guess we’ll find out.  In the meantime, let’s enjoy some college football hotties.

16-10?  OK, I know playing in Brice Stadium isn’t easy but really guys.  You are letting these hotties down.  That should keep you up at night because they certainly won’t with play like that.

USC coeds should be all smiles again after this week.  And in the ‘end’ (terrible I know) it won’t matter that they lost to the Huskies because they’ll be playing on New Year’s Day.

Clemson has another tough game this week against #15 TCU.  I’m not too sure they are going to come out of this one on top but at least they have girls like her waiting back at the dorms.

Penn State?

or Iowa?  Tough call but in PSU’s house I’ll go with the Nittany Lion.

Hats, and tops, off to the Cougars.  Grrrrrr!

Football is looking good again at ‘The U’.  Looking very good.

College Football Hotties 2009 Vol 1

College football is back and it looks to be an exciting season. I must have watched 12 hours of football that first weekend. So glad it’s back. But, better that watching it on TV is making the trip to a campus and taking it all in. It is more than just the game. It is the pre-game. It is the BBQ, beer and playing catch before the game. It is the after parties and the bar hopping. It is also about the beautiful college girls getting out there and rooting for their team. Enjoy Vol 1 of what hopes to be a several volume tribute to the hotties of college football.

Things are looking good in Nebraska this year!

The Ducks might have the worst uniforms in football but the cheerleaders are near the top of the list.

You can’t have a college post without including reps from the #1 team in the land.  Well, it doesn’t hurt that they have one of the hottest fan bases too.

How did those Wolverines pull it off against Notre Dame?  Was it the refs?  Was it all Forcier?  Or, was it these two talented split ends…ooops, I mean cheerleaders?

There is plenty to cheer about Dawg fans!  You beat South Carolina to get back on the winning track.  Oh, and you also have HOT fans like her.

To round out Vol 1 you have to conclude with Jenn Sterger.  She has been out of school a couple of years now AND has changed her allegiance from FSU to USF but she is hot.  What else do you need?

AFC 2009 Predictions

AFC East
1 Patriots – With Brady healthy and the addition of RB Fred Taylor the Pats are back. The offense should return to the high scoring machine it was 2 years ago. The defense is a different matter. They are certainly not as strong as they were 2 years ago, especially with the departure of Richard Seymour. They should be good enough to help New England win another division title.
2 Dolphins – The Phins will challenge the Pats for the division. Miami has an exciting offense behind a rejuvinated Chad Pennington. The RB duo of Brown and Williams should be great and I can’t wait to see the Wildcat with Pat White. I look for WR Ted Ginn to have a break out year. The defense should be solid once again with a revamped secondary.
3 Jets – It will take time for QB Mark Sanchez to make an impact in this league but I like what I see so far. Currently he lacks big play WRs but does have good RBs in T.Jones and L. Washington. There will be some growing pains on that side of the ball. The defense, led by LB Bart Scott should actually be pretty good and will keep the Jets competitive in the AFC East.
4 Bills – The T.O. show has arrived and I think it will cause more problems than it solves. QB Trent Edwards has potential but when you look at the RB situation and the offensive coordinator’s firing you can’t help but think this offense is going to be a mess. The defense is decent but they are less decent against the run. They need to improve up front.

AFC South
1 Titans – Tennessee is the class of the division. It all starts with the best RB duo in football in Chris Johnson and LenDale White. It also helps the offense is run by one of the better game managers in football in Kerry Collins. Rookie WR Kenny Britt could become one of Kerry’s favorite targets. Despite the loss of Albert Haynesworth the D-Line remains solid. The defense is quick and dynamic. They should be a Top 5 defensive unit.
2 Texans – This is the year Houston breaks the .500 mark and challenges for that final wildcard spot. QB Matt Schaub will have to stay healthy for that to happen but I think his line is a little better this season. They have a balanced ground attack and one of the best WR in the league in Andre Johnson. This should be a good offense. Now the defense lost a lot of games for them last season. It is a decent unit but they are going to have to improve in the secondary if they are going to leap frog Indy.
3 Colts – This is going to be one long year for Peyton Manning. He hasn’t had a season like this one is going to be. They have a new coach, issues on the O-Line and RB and a lack of overall depth. Manning will still hook up with Clark and Wayne but it will be less frequent this season. The Colt defense is going to be inconsistent and they have injuries and that doesn’t help. Sub .500? Maybe.
4 Jaguars – The good news is Mo Jones Drew is going to have a monster year. The bad news is he is the offenses only real weapon. David Garrard is a good QB but he has very few WRs to work with. He is also injury prone and there is nothing behind him. The defense used to be the team’s strength and now it is a weakness. They can’t stop the run and they don’t get turnovers.

AFC North
1 Steelers – Pittsburgh is the team to beat in this division. They have retained virtually their whole squad from last season and got a couple of players healthy they needed to get healthy. Big Ben should do well again and the offense could even be better if they can get Parker and Mendenhall to stay healthy. The defense led by Troy Palamalu should be the best in the NFL. They are one of the quickest, most aggressive units in football.
2 Bengals – This is my surprise pick of the year. I don’t think Cincy will get the last wildcard spot but a 9 win season is certainly possible. We’ve seen how good this offense can be if Palmer is healthy and they can run. I think Cedric will be good for this team and Palmer should be comeback player of the year. Defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer should make the D better but he might lack playmakers. Keeping LB Keith Rivers healthy is key.
3 Ravens – Baltimore could challenge and get up for a final wildcard spot but I think they regress under the .500 mark this season. QB Joe Flacco is good but I see his numbers coming down a bit do to the lack of playmakers. The RB situation is unsettled and the sooner they commit to Ray Rice the better this team will be. The defense has gone through some changes and not for the better. They will miss D Coordinator Ryan and Bart Scott.
4 Browns – New head coach, same stinky result. The Browns are doomed for last place in this division. While the win total should be low they do have a bright outlook. QB Brady Quinn should develop into a Top 10 QB if Coach ManGENIUS gives him the time and weapons. RB Jamal Lewis is long in the tooth but will be depended upon to move the offense. WR Braylon Edwards needs to step up or step aside. The defense wasn’t very good last year and looks like a mess in 2009. The coach brought a bunch of defenders from the NY Jets but not too many of the good ones.

AFC West
1 Chargers – San Diego should thrive in the worst division in football. Rivers should connect with all of his usual suspects and RB Tomlinson is happy and healthy. Back up RB and special teamer Darren Sproles is one of the more exciting players in the league. The defense has a healthy Shawne Merriman and that is really all you have to say.
2 Broncos – Normally 2nd place would be OK in the AFC West. It used to mean an automatic wildcard birth. Not this year. Denver isn’t very good. They had a ton of off-season issues, largely the Cutler saga and contract problems with WR Brandon Marshall. New coach Josh McDaniels and QB Kyle Orton have a lot of work to do to earn the trust of the passionate Broncos fans. The defense was terrible last year and should only be moderately better this season. It looks like a sub .500 year for the Broncos.
3 Chiefs – KC is improving and could leap frog Denver for the first time since…dare I say the mid 90s? QB Matt Cassell is a key. He could be a one-year wonder like Derek Anderson or Rick Mirer. We will have to see. I still like QB Tyler Thigpen long-term. Coach Todd Haley is a very good coach and has now taken over the offensive play calling. That should help. The defense is a work in progress but it is young and hungry. There should be improvement on that side of the ball this season. DE Dorsey’s development is going to be key. A healthy Mike Brown will also make this defense much better.
4 Raiders – I am not an Oakland fan by any stretch but to see this classic franchise struggle for so long is just sad. QB JaMarcus Russell isn’t an NFL starting QB. He looks lost at times and despite his physical gifts he doesn’t seem to have the mental part of the game down. But it isn’t all his fault either. There has been turnover in the coaching staff and the owner has lost his mind. He also has very few weapons on the offense to help him out. The defense is certainly better than the offense but not by much. Acquiring DT Richard Seymour makes this teams D-Line better but they had to give up a 1st Round draft pick (should be a Top 10) and Seymour hasn’t shown up.
