I'll echo the sentiments of some previous posters and say that this is one of your best threads yet. And a PBR reference is always a plus! :) Thanks for all the time you put into your threads each week. You post (and Tweet) at crazy hours...I'm hoping you work nights!

This weekend I'll be pulling for Texas and Baylor (of course!), Alabama, and TCU. I've got two "little" boys from my church who play for the Frogs...the Brock Brothers. I swear they're the stinking Twin Towers; their dad is just as big. Gotta root for the church kiddies...even if Raider is still nursing wounds from last weekend (sorry about that!).

Good luck to your teams this weekend!

P.S. Speaking of third world African countries, I think there is something wrong with me that I never get tired of saying "Djibouti." It's not easy to work that word into conversation, but I make it happen, baby!

There’s a website to vote for C.J. Spiller from Clemson to win the Heisman Trophy. I know it’s a long shot but TCU fans are also voting for him. A big thank you goes out to some classy fans.

Why thank you Blair, that was very nice of you to say. Considering I didn’t have as much time as I usually do to write the thread this week, I thought “oh, man this week’s thread is going to suck”. Sometimes the threads that I think are going to be terrible turn out great and the ones I feel great about don’t turn out well.

Speaking of PBR, there’s one bar here in town that actually sells PBR in 16 oz cans for $1. Seeing as how it is PBR and all, I think bars should be paying me to drink it, although that’s not exactly the career path my parents had envisioned for me back in my three year run of Geography Bee dominance, but I think I am able to serve a useful purpose.

(BTW, if you can find a way to mention that the chief export of Djibouti is natural gas, you’ll have fun for at least several hours.)
