Speaking of the pride of men...my teams had both good and bad weeks. Good News: my high school team (last year's Ohio state champ) beat the cross-nation Texas champion pretty handily. My pro team (Bengals) looked good on their first game of the season in nearly a decade....but perhaps that's because the Browns aren't so hot. Time will tell.

On the down side: My Cincy team in their inaugural Big East season had their keesters handed to them by Penn State. The OS Buckeyes threw a game to Texas in the last quarter....no national championship this year. But it was a pretty even match. (Maybe they are a good team.)

I noticed that one of your teams, from whom you've taken your handle, didn't handle Georgia by a few points. Was it a heartbreaker?

I have to admit that the Bengals did look decent yesterday. The Browns had moments of brilliance too. Time will tell how both of these teams play, and whether either one has the goods. They both have some good talent, but talent alone does not a football team make.

Makes no difference since USC is going to run the table again. too much talent and speed for anyone to handle. As usual, their toughest games will be against other PAC-10 teams. No one else has a chance.
