College Football Coed FINALE

The NCAA football season draws to a close this weekend as most teams will have completed their 12th and final game.  A couple of conference championships and rivalry games (Army-Navy) remain.  It has been an interesting season to say the least and one where 5 or 6 teams have a legitimate claim to the BCS [...]

BCS is BS

The solution is a very simple one and lets the NCAA keep their bowl game tradition.
First off all regular season college games need to be finished before Thanksgiving weekend.
A field of 16, using AP or some sort of ranking system, will play on the Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving.  There will be 4 games on [...]

Great Football Weekend Upon Us

For the first time in several weeks I have the opportunity to make myself a sandwich, grab a beer and sit down and enjoy some college and pro games this weekend.  I so enjoy football season but it also tends to be the busiest time of year with birthdays, holidays and other stuff.  I love [...]

unBEARable

The Bears had every opportunity to walk into Lambeau Field on Sunday and take control of the NFC North.  They had every opportunity with only 6 games remaining to let Green Bay and Minnesota know that the path to the playoffs go through Chicago.  With a win and a game upcoming against St. Louis a [...]

Remember…

As much fun as we have here on the BPD Rag it is time to remember those that fought and died for us.  My cousin was fighting over in Iraq and Afghanistan and I know many of your friends/family members have defended our great nation as well.  Some have even paid the ultimate sacrifice. 
The job [...]

Hank Baskett Finally Makes a Big Catch

Philadelphia Eagles WR Hank Baskett made the biggest catch of his career snagging former Girl Next Door Kendra Wilkinson.  Kendra has spent the last several years living in Hef’s Playboy Mansion as one of Hugh Hefner’s “Girls Next Door”.  Hugh gave Hank his blessings to Hank and Kendra.  The biggest question is can Hugh replace [...]

Return of Hot College Cuties

I must say Kansas has many hotties.  I had no idea.  The bonus was the weather, 75 degrees in November so they didn’t wear much to the game.  Very nice. 
I do have to give them props on their football knowledge as well.  All of the students were into the game.  It was a great [...]

Road Trip Worth Taking

To be honest I wasn’t expecting too much from this “guys sports weekend”.  When you are on a tight budget and trying to put something together it is usually a recipie for disappointment.  However I was pleasantly surprised with KU (Lawrence, KS) and Kansas City, MO.  Both places provided great sporting events and plenty to [...]
