It’s Nice to Have a Heisman Trophy Leader
The Big Lead —
Last week, there was no leader; now, Texas QB Colt McCoy is out front. By a considerable margin. Sam Bradford and Tim Tebow need a Texas loss to warrant serious consideration.
1. Colt McCoy, QB, Texas. The Missouri defense has always been best-described as a sieve, which is why Colt’s 29-for-32, 337-yard, two-TD clinic Saturday night in Austin is no surprise. That being said … there isn’t a ballot in the country in which the SI coverboy isn’t the leader.
2. Sam Bradford, QB, Oklahoma. ...
Colt McCoy: Destined For Greatness
Brahsome - Care To Get Nice? —

COLT MCCOY: DECONSTRUCTED
EDSBS —
Le object: The Colt McCoy commercial for a Texas pharmacy, done before he signed with the University of Texas and therefore not in conflict with any NCAA regs. Examine:
Le deconstruction:
Hi, I’m Colt McCoy, local quarterback and part-time pitchman. My role today will be played by the 18 year old Will Wheaton. Golly gee shucks. Also, at Texas they will pipe protein powder into my eyeballs to make me three times the size I am now. I look forward to this glorious tranformation.

Bob's Blog - Live from Lewisville —
Friday in Sportstown…. The Mavericks returned and there is some good and some same ol same ol. But, for the most part, too many easy baskets for them and too many jumpshots for us. Sigh. But, wow. The Thriller Dance was Boffo. Amazing job, Mavs Dancers/ManiAACs. By the way, when the question was Josh Howard for Ron Artest, it didn’t seem like any major upgrade.

He seems to understand the relative ...

It’s Never Been Less Fun To Be A Big Time Collegiate QB (Or A Prude)
Can't Stop The Bleeding —
“In the era of Twitter, Facebook and Deadspin.com, being the big man on campus no longer means being the life of the party,” observe the New York Times’ Pete Thamel and Thayer Evans, citing the case of a girl taking off her shirt before having her photo snapped with Tim Tebow at a Gainsville, FL Radio Shack (by her mom, no less). “‘It’s happened four or five times,’ Tebow said with a sigh,” as if there wasn’t enough sacrifice in his daily do-gooder existence. Elsewhere in the piece, the dad of injured Oklahoma QB Sam Bradford complains of autograph seekers leaving swag at his ...
