On Twitter @TheCoachBart The Coaches Poll came out, which I greet with about as much excitement as a new Daughtry single, which is to say “some amount less than getting poked in the eye,” but it gives us something to make fun of because the coaches poll in and of itself is an idiotic idea, […]

0 comments by

So when you see a West Virginia QB apologizing to Deadspin on Twitter, you naturally think “man, something bad must have gone down.” Nope. All it really was turned out to be more Internet outrage from the Sensitive Police, who never take a day or preferably a lifetime off. Clint Trickett yesterday posted a joke […]
