College really is supposed to be about learning. Well, that and the kegs of beer, but I digress. You’d think someone, the NCAA, the schools themselves could find a better way to handle the recent rash of scandals that have rocked college football. But as they say, “Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it”

But what the heck. We all just want to see some football don’t we? Say Amen! So let’s kick this season off and get on with it shall we!

I did this cover illustration for the Boulder Daily Camera’s football preview section. I had a blast doing it. Thanks ever so much to Daily Camera sports editor Jennifer Osieczanek for taking a chance on this. I hope you like it.

The game changes so much from year to year, sometimes it’s hard to keep up. this was inspired by a story from a few weeks back about misplaced jewelry on the field. This just seemed a funny contrast to me from the days when contacts were all you could ever lose (besides a fumble). So here’s a little frivolity for today. The last two days have been so somber.

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!!!!

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.
