Sports: This week had lots of great NBA games and storylines, but most of you have probably heard all of the information more than enough times, so I thought I should inform you of some College Football n:ews that went relatively unnoticed, but will make a big difference this year. The College Football Coaches Poll makes up 1/3 of the BCS rankings. As if the BCS isn't already messed up enough, now the NCAA decided that the coaches selections for the Top 25 Coaches Poll will now be a secret, instead of public record. In a perfect world, where coaches are moral human beings at all times, this would be fine. Unfortunately, we are far from that, coaches are accused of cheating on a daily basis, will do whatever it takes to win, and are not exactly the most trustworthy people. Now that they have no checks and balances in their voting process, no one can hold them responsible for voting for their team every week or voting for teams on their own schedule, just to try and boost their strength of schedule. I have no idea why the NCAA thought this was a good idea, and I'm pleading: Please, Barack, follow through on your promise to scrap the BCS and make a playoff system for us, because right now, things are only getting worse.
Music: This week's top billboard album was Eminem's Relapse. After listening to the album, I thought it was good, but not great by any means. I wish Eminem should have brought it harder than he did. A lot of the tracks were trying to be funny as he used his Slim Shady persona, and the few tracks that he tried to bring hard and be serious, I found kind of gross (For example, the song Insane.) Overall, I enjoyed the album and it is worth getting, but it isn't my favorite Eminem record by any means.
Youtube Clip: I was reading one of my personal favorite blogs, Club Trillion, and I saw a hilarious clip that he had posted. Being a huge Chicago Bulls fan made this clip even more enjoyable for me. Without further ado, I present you, "Benny the Bull on Jerry Springer"
