Today’s View From the Bull Pen
Idiots Among Us
The latest Bozo Award in the world of sports belongs to Sergio Garcia. The tiff between him and Tiger Woods is legendary and has escalated in recent weeks. But the recent statement by Garcia about Tiger Woods coming over to his house for dinner with fried chicken on the menu is beyond belief. It proves once again that even though golf is a cerebral game, stupid people somehow manage to find a way on the course regardless. True Idiocy reigns on the PGA tour.Like MLK, I too have a dream. That someday we will no longer see the color of a man's skin, or judge them by their sexuality, but instead, with compassion and strength, seek to live as equals in the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness.
Until that day, I will rage on in cartoons like this one about the utter stupidity of some people who, unfortunately, inhabit the same planet I do.As always, your readership and your comments help to make the world go round, so please continue to add them. I will try to do a better job of responding.
There isn't a way to leave comments in the Bull Pen so please feel free to leave your comments under the latest cartoon that I post.

Texas: They do make Whine in Texas
So my apologies to all of my fellow Cornhuskers fans. I was wrong. It was Texas. It’s always Texas. And how do I know for sure? I grew up there. I know the way it works.Well, this certainly changes things. The Big 12 lives to fight another day. Or at least until the Longhorns get a better offer. Never underestimate the power of a Texan or two to broker a deal behind closed doors. That’s pretty much what happened with a lot of wheeling and dealing to get it done. I wouldn’t be surprised if old LBJ himself had something to do with it.
So I’ll set the record straight. Though many will look at Colorado and Nebraska as the rats who ran early, it’s now very clear. It was Texas setting them up as scapegoats. And set them up they did.

Cornhuskers: Thar She Blows
It only took one single move to blow up what was once a pretty good athletic conference. The Nebraska Cornhuskers desertion to the Big Ten (with considerable help from Texas, which is, well, ALWAYS about Texas) means the Big 12 is over. Colorado is off to the PAC-10, which I think is long-term a BIG mistake and things as we know them around here will never be quite the same. So much for the Nebraska rivalry, which was, really, no rivalry at all.
I hate to see what is happening to NCAA sports. But it was inevitable. It’s about the MONEY. It’s always about the money. And the smaller schools are the losers.
The Buffs should have gone to the Mountain West. It pains me to say that, but I think the way things work in Boulder make it difficult for the Buffs to compete with the USC’s of the world. (Texas and Nebraska for that matter). Now I want to hear it from you. What do you think of the whole mess? Start typing those comments.
Don’t forget my world Cup cartoon on ESPN.com sometime after the Saturday USA-England match
