I don't like Rick Reilly

It's my question, I can name as many teams as I please. I'm not talking playoff, although I think the idea has merit, I'm pointing out that there are at least three teams (each from a power conference) that would beat Utah like a red headed step child, JMO.

Out of curiosity, how did you predict the Utah vs. Bama game?

Even if we exclude Utah from the argument (which to me is like throwing out Cinderella and all the attention that goes with it) you still list three teams, not two. So irregardless of your feelings about Utah I think you can agree that we should institute a playoff to some degree. I think if we can get to a playoff, in any form, it would be a break through. The bracket can then be expanded in the future as is needed; à la the NCAA BB tournament.

I stopped reading after this word. The fact that you don't know that is not a word gives little credence to the rest of your post.

Not a real word.


edit: oops, I read your post before I saw abs response. It's still not a word.

just sayin'.
 
The next time I read a Dick Riley article will be right after Jessica Alba is done cleaning my balls with her tongue. **** him.

It is a word, though it is not proper. There is a difference between an incorrect fact and nonstandard english.

What's it mean? How is "irregardless" any different in meaning from "regardless"?


Not a word.

I never said they were different and it doesn't have to be. Why don't you just look it up.

Edit: Here it is anyway.


From Merriam-Webster:

Main Entry: ir·re·gard·less
Pronunciation: \ˌir-i-ˈgärd-ləs\
Function: adverb
Etymology: probably blend of irrespective and regardless
Date: circa 1912
nonstandard : regardless
usage Irregardless originated in dialectal American speech in the early 20th century. Its fairly widespread use in speech called it to the attention of usage commentators as early as 1927. The most frequently repeated remark about it is that “there is no such word.” There is such a word, however. It is still used primarily in speech, although it can be found from time to time in edited prose. Its reputation has not risen over the years, and it is still a long way from general acceptance. Use regardless instead.

I don't have to look it up. Just because some idot put it in the dictionary doesn't make it a real word.

I didn't make a prediction, but when I sat down to watch I fully expected a 'Bama thumping of the Utes.

As I said before, I came away with a real respect for the Utes. They are a very good team and probably a top 5-ish squad this year. But the best team in CFB, not a chance.

They beat 'Bama fair and square. Congrats to them.

They beat the Pac10 #2, the SEC #2 in the deep south, Doubled up a the number 14 team in the country in a rivalry game, and beat the #12 team in TCU. I thin they could have finished 3rd in any of the leagues mentioned above.

They also barely squeaked by AFA and New Mexico. I wouldn't be so sure about that.

My point is that you expected Bama to thump the utes just like you would expect that usc, flaaaaarida, and ou would.

My point is OU, USC and UF would. I'm not much for excuses, but 'Bama had three of it's starting OL out for the game. I still think Utah played a whale of a game, and deserved to win.

Bottom line is the champs of the Pac 10, Big 12 and SEC would run Utah. Add in the fact they play in a cushy conference, and I just don't see them as a real contender. Do you really believe they would win the Big 12, SEC or Pac 10? I don't. I doubt they would win the Big 10 either, although they have a better shot there than the other three conferences I mentioned. I would say they could win the Big East...maybe, but the ACC would eat their lunch as well.

They had a great season. They are a top 5-ish team. They are not the best team in CFB.

Yeah, I didn't distort the quote enough.:smile2:

Still, if Rick is good enough for her, I don't want her anywhere near my junk.:huh:
 
Not to threadjack, but did anyone watch 'Rock Of Love - Bus Tour' with Brett Michaels? Of the 20 starting contestants, one of them (the skankiest one) wanted to 'sing' a rap song she wrote to him-- then proceeded to unfold the lyrics, which happened to be written on a borchure about genital herpes. Freaking hilarious.

And I love the Brazillian girl. She reminds me of the one actress on SNL that did the skit of Dianna Ross in jail in a way, but is still my fav so far.

A train wreck of a show-- but that is what makes it so fun. We all know that Brett is just using this to promote himself and to fool around with a bunch of girls, but the hope that each one has that he will love them forever is just too funny not to watch.

Now back to the regularly scheduled Rick bashing.....:smile2:

Not so fast, Turbo. That show is insane. On the first day, that Brazilian chick drank so much tequila she was puking at like noon and then Bret comes home after his photo shoot or whatever and she walks out of the bathroom and walks right up to him and begins a full blown makeout session while all the other girls cringe hahahaha that was sick!!

Also, one of the girls is a Penthouse Pet and she has told the camera confessional thing multiple times how annoyed she is at all the slutty women on the show hahahaha, you're a ****ing penthouse pet..you're just as much of a whore, you just get paid for it!!

Isn't that kind of the idea of being a whore in the first place? That you get paid for it?
