Into the Great Wide Open


We Wisconsin fans thought we were special when our Men's and Women's hockey teams both won national champions last year, but now Florida has outdone us by winning national championships in basketball and football. This confirms three things I've always believed about college sports:

1) Urban Meyer really DID sell his soul to the devil.

2) There really is a university that can out-do Ohio State when it comes to 'educating' its 'student athletes'.

3) The word 'Chompions' is probably the cleverest thing ever printed by any sportswriter, anywhere.

So, Congratulations Gator fan...on the best thing to ever happen to Gainesville since Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.

Yes Sir! How bout them Gators! - Special thanks to 301NIB for the Gator spotlight. By the way, Urban Meyer could not have sold his soul to the devil - he's a devout Catholic...
