What if I can pull a little bit of speculation out of this steamy pile of shit and mold it into something much bigger than what it actually is? Hmm…) Maybe if I hadn’t wasted so much time commenting on everything, I would’ve won this race and had a much different story to tell… But hey, perhaps this outcome isn’t all bad. But I guess I should probably get used to that feeling with the way things are going these days. You know, I really thought that those last few would’ve put me over the top. I wish Joe Paterno had possessed the superhuman ability to see other people’s thoughts.I wish that if and when Joe is exonerated of his supposed crimes, the retraction and apology also be front page news for an entire week.I wish the NCAA possessed the track record to make me believe that having the all-time-winningest football coach remembered for a “Grand Experiment” wouldn’t have somehow hurt its future profitability.I wish the Big Ten had a business partnership with “The World-Wide Leader in Sports” because the scandals at both Penn State and Ohio State would’ve gotten a lot less airtime.… DAMN IT!!! Why do I keep getting sidetracked like this?) Could it be that they ruled this way because they didn’t want to open the Pandora’s Box on academic scandals in major-college football? SEC. Maybe it’s just me, but I’m pretty sure that academic fraud is nowhere even close to free tattoos. (The NCAA being the moral authority for college athletics is about as dumb as a football bat. I wish that the NCAA would’ve felt that the UNC academic scandal combined with a sports-agent scandal deserved much more than a one-year bowl ban.I wish that the NCAA would’ve done more about the strong speculation that Auburn had purchased a Heisman Trophy and a National Championship.I wish that the NCAA would’ve punished UVA for one of its athletes committing murder.I wish that the NCAA would’ve punished Oregon fans for supporting a culture that believes that it’s okay to corrupt young athletes by paying their recruiting advisors to steer their college decisions.I wish that the NCAA would’ve punished the schools that sidestepped the rules by “over-signing.”.What did I eat that would cause this much shit to come out of me? Twitter?… Alright, these last ones are going to need to be over the top if I’m going to catch up. I wish there was something else in college football that gave me hope for its future.I wish referees could be held accountable for flagrant blown calls that directly influence games.I wish that twits and twats weren’t allowed to use Twitter.I wish sports columnists didn’t play Follow-the-Leader when they don’t have time to do research.I wish it had never happened, but we were still able to understand how bad child sexual abuse is.I wish a few people would’ve had better judgment when dealing with the possibilities.I wish that no child will ever have to go through what Jerry Sandusky put those boys through. ![]() I shouldn’t be wasting any time because this race is starting to heat up.) (See what I did there with that last sentence? See how that works on multiple levels?… Damn.
