If we weren't all crazy, we would go insane.

Gotta love family problems. They're especially fun when your family has been ripped apart by divorce. Apparently, my parents must act like 6 year olds who are fighting whenever they are involved in the same thing. Because of this, my brother and I have been forced to involve the both of them in only life's most important events. My brother's wedding being a fairly important event, they are both invited -- his mistake. He's the one who has to bear the brunt of the unpleasant force, but I've also been dragged in with drama queen-esque phone calls. Are you kidding me? Your 50, and you've been divorced for 10+ years now. Get over it.

Anyway, as promised, my college football preview:

Big12 Championship Winner: Texas

Big East: West Virginia

Big10: Ohio State*

Conference USA East: Southern Miss
Conference USA West: Tulsa
Conference USA Championship Winner: Southern Miss

MAC East: Miami
MAC West: Central Michigan
MAC Championship Winner: Central Michigan

Mountain West: TCU

Pac10: USC

SEC East: Florida
SEC West: Arkansas
SEC Championship Winner: Arkansas

Sunbelt: Troy

WAC: Hawaii

BCS Bowls:

Orange: Michigan defeats Florida

* Yes, I am an Ohio State grad. Yes, I am also aware that most sports magazines have picked us to finish 2nd or 3rd in the Big10 (I've not seen one pick the Bucks to win it). However, this is not a homer pick. We are ranked 10th in the nation (Coaches Poll), and we have an absolute cupcake schedule until week 9 in Happy Valley. We also get Wisconsin at home. And, Jim Tressel does, in fact, own Lllloyd Carr. Besides, its not like I picked OSU to go all the way. We will probably lose one of our three toughest games.

Anyway, there it is. Now scamper along kiddies.
