Primarily about Penn State football, this is a tale told by idiots, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
I know there’s a lot of game left, but Akron is putting the clamps on tOSU early in the second quarter with a safety and a couple of interceptions. Wouldn’t it be cool if the Zips did to the Buckeyes this week what the Mountaineers did to the Wolverines last week? It would sure serve the Buckeye fans right for buying that shitload of Appalachian State logo merchandise all week!

Read Phil’s Corner in the September 10, 2007 issue of Blue White Illustrated for an interesting revelation (if it is true) about how this year’s team captains were chosen. Usually, Phil Grosz is the object of Turkological scorn, but this time I think he has a scoop. 888 I won’t spoil it for you. Read it for yourself.
The Nittany Lions looked really good in their 59-0 win over FIU. So what? FIU sucks really, really badly. Anyhow, as I stated in my recap of the game and in my pre-game predictions, not much can be gleaned from our team’s performance against an overmatched opponent like the Golden Panthers.
