Man it’s like I don’t even know baseball exists right now. So much football, and that’s not the only thing going on. The Ultimate Fighter starts on Wednesday with Rampage Jackson and Sugar Rashad Evans coaching the heavyweights. And there are a lot of good heavyweights to be found this time, beyond Kimbo Slice and some former NFL players.

After two weeks of college ball and one week of NFL ball, I’m pretty sure the NFL didn’t deliver one awesome game in week one. College ball, by pure volume of games, seems ore impressive. But, really, there are tons of bad football games every year and we still love them because even bad football is…football.
Clemson and South Carolina both lost to their big rivals in Georgia, therefore letting down the entire state of South Carolina. Of course, it can be said after this week that neither team has anything to be ashamed of because they both lost tough, close games. That works. I just wish it wasn’t always “Well, we lost, but we have nothing to be ashamed of because we left it all on the field.” You’d figure, just on the law of averages, that one of these teams would win a huge game now and again. No, though. No.

I guess everyone really hates Kanye West now because he interrupted the MTV Video Music Awards acceptance speech of on Taylor Swift. I’m obviously a bad person for not being angry at Kanye, but I struggle to figure out just why Taylor Swift is off-limits. Sure she seems nice, but so do plenty of other people who get crapped on in the media constantly.
Maybe I have it figured out. Go back ten years, to Britney Spears at 17-18 years old. She was singing all those songs about sex. It was like she meant to tease us all and please those of us the songs were about. Taylor Swift, on the other hand, does these sweet little cutesy songs about puppy love in high school. I think that is the whole reason Taylor Swift is considered off-limits. Because she is 19, but comes off as 13 and it’s mean to pick on a 13 year-old girl. Maybe if she were 4 inches taller we could treat her like we treat every single other person alive. That’d be nice.
