If anyone finds the video [...]

Keeping with the trend that in 2007 so nicely blessed us with our first 2-loss National Champion since the 1960 Minnesota Golden Gophers, everyone that could get knocked off this weekend, got knocked off. The beneficiary? Sure as hell wasn’t the Pac-10…nor the SEC…try the Big 12. That’s right, the Big 12 has 4 top 10 teams.

Brewtiful!!! CC Sabathia did exactly what he was hired to do. Win the big game. Pitching on short rest, again, Sabathia threw 9 innings of 1 run (unearned) ball, and Ryan Braun (above) provided the fireworks with a 2 run blast to break a tie game in the 8th and help clinch the victory, 3-1. [...]

Bullied AP Photo/John Bazemore This was the night that Georgia was supposed to answer the critics and prove that the Bulldogs were a legit contender for the National Title.
