College Conference Madness

BYU is the latest to leap out of a conference and into a new beginning. The amount of shuffling going on in College conferences has really reached a level of absurdity. It’s not that big a deal right now but when all these changes do take effect it’s going to be mass confusion for those of us who follow college sports.

Sure hope all of you had a great Labor Day weekend. And isn’t it great? It’s Football season!!!!

One for Academia’s most Important Athletes

academicschemistry

This time of year it’s so easy to get caught up in the football season and forget what really matters. lost often times are the students who spend endless hours studying, researching, and reading. Why we don’t celebrate those people more is beyond me. It’s part of the culture to raise up athletes to a ridiculous stature and and ignore the amazing contributions that intellectual in nature. It’s too bad. We miss esteeming a lot of kids that way.

Bobby Bowden going Bye-Bye

Bowden to Bow Out?
It’s tough when coaches have lost their edge, can’t see it and refuse to hang it up before they are pushed. Bobby Bowden and Joe Paterno come immediately to mind. Great coaches in their day but both have clearly they coached past their primes. And after years of great football how can anyone really push them out the door. An official from inside the Florida State program was quoted as saying about the Bowden dilemma “we have to take the emotion out of it. We have to make it a business decision.” That doesn’t bode well for Bowden.

Rocktober update
I’ll be drawing about game 1 of the Rockies-Phillies playoff series. Check in later Wednesday night for a toon.

College Football’s rough ride

top20bullish

Now that’s a Red Bull. Angry, mean and unforgiving, the college football poll system is a bit of a frightening place these days. I love taking scenes like this and making them into cartoon “stages”. I think this one comes from either growing up in Texas or seeing “Urban Cowboy” one too many times. probably a bit of both.

High School Football and the world of Freelance

Football & Freelance
I thought it would be fun to show you occasionally some of the other kinds of things that I’m doing these days as I ramp up my freelance business, Littoonz Studios. It’s time for High school football and I’m doing all the home game programs for Pomona High School. I love to do this kind of work and hope that eventually I can do a lot more it. I’ve always wanted to do game programs as well as a bunch of other work, but while I was still working at the Rocky I was somewhat restricted in what I could take on as freelance work. So if you know of anyone in the market feel free to drop my name.
