Surprised? Who else could have been chosen as the “Defensive Player of the Year”?

Congrats Ndamukong!!!

Sports World Rocked: SUUUUUUUUH is Heisman Finalist!

Can you pronounce “Ndamukong”?

It is: En-dom-ah-ken.

Can you scream, “SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUH!” like a Husker fan?

You’d better learn. Today, in a historic announcement, Nebraska’s Defensive Linemen, Ndamukong Suh was name 1 of 4 Heisman Finalists. No sh-t!

Only one primarily defensive player (Michigan’s Charles Woodson in 1997) has ever won the award.

Suh has already begun his travels on the award circuit this week. He figures to win his share of hardware — a finalist for the Walter Camp Award, Lombardi Award, Outland Trophy, Bednarik Award, Lott Trophy and Nagurski Award.

The kid is deserving. Did you watch him in the Big 12 Championship Game! WOW!

If he wins, he would become the fourth Husker Heisman winner, joining Johnny Rodgers (1972), Mike Rozier (1983) and Eric Crouch.

Suh has 82 tackles, 23 tackles for losses, 24 quarterback hurries and 12 sacks from a position that generally doesn’t generate flattering statistics.

The other 3 finalists were Tim Tebow, Colt McCoy, Mark Ingram, and Toby Gerhart. Stand aside boys, let the big man through…

Suh’s winning would make up from the one Tommie Frazier was screwed out of in 1995!!!

Heisman Race: Suh or McCoy – You Be The Judge!

If ever a contest offered proof that a defensive player deserves to be considered the best player in college football, it was Saturday’s Big 12 Conference Championship. Nebraska’s Ndamukong Suh made an undeniable statement during the 60 minutes he terrorized Texas’ offensive line and quarterback Colt McCoy. The Heisman Trophy supposedly is given to the game’s most outstanding player. This year will put that tradition to a test. Will voters instead, shamefully vote for the one who had the most dazzling ‘offensive’ skills?

Suh is already the Big 12 Conference’s defensive player of the year. The Nebraska contingent of some 20,000 fans greeted the senior defensive tackle with loud chants of “SUUUUH” every time he stuffed McCoy. The 6-foot-4, 300-pound Suh tossed around McCoy like a rag doll. He finished with 12 tackles, including seven for loss and a Big 12 Championship record 4 1/2 sacks. It’s crazy that a defensive tackle can produce so many sacks.

“I’m proud of the defense,” Carl Pelini said. “I’ve never seen a more dominating performance. If Suh didn’t win the Heisman tonight, it’s a disgrace. He’s the best player in college football.”

Big 12 Championship: 1 sec; 1 play; 1 point; AND Another Bad Call

Damn…

The Nebraska Blackshirts battered, harassed and frustrated The National’s Offensive Player of the year (McCoy) throughout the game. The Texas senior quarterback threw three interceptions, had no touchdowns, threw for a modest 184 yards and was sacked nine times – borderline incredible in a stunning and stirring Big 12 championship game.

“I think we can all say Nebraska’s back,” Texas coach Mack Brown said.

“I’m proud of the defense,” Carl Pelini (NU Defensive Coordinator) said. “I’ve never seen a more dominating performance. If Suh didn’t win the Heisman tonight, it’s a disgrace. He’s the best player in college football.”

Double damn…

Tiger Woods is a Boob!

No sh-t!

Do you really need to read why?

He doesn’t owe you and me any explanation. That is 100% owned by the woman on his right shoulder.

Can anyone really have it all? With no desires for something else?

I’ll never understand the term ’slumming’…

Idiot!

Sarah Palin Signs Books TODAY (3 Dec) in Norman, OK

Yes, America’s sweetheart and superheroine, and just maybe the Republican Party’s savior in 2012, will be in Norman OK today to sign her blockbuster book, “Going Rogue”.

Palin will be at the Hasting’s Book store early this evening. The store’s staff as been planning for days how to handle the huge crowd that has already started gathering.

I know, as my son, Rob, is the store manager. He says its been crazy. Last night, about 60 Palin fans brought tents and camp out in the parking lot to insure they get their book signed tonight. Rob kept the coffee shop open all night, taking orders and delivery to the parking lot.

Check out this link to hear about the event:

Nobody knows how many will show up, but estimates are over 1,000. And they say conservatism is dead? Bull! Not in this part of the country.

I fly home today from Thousand Oaks, CA – hope to see you on the plane headed to Norman, OK.

Adam Lambert Blew It On AMA (no pun intended…)

You can tell Adam is young and new to the business. ‘Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should’!

Know what I mean?

Adam, I’ve got news for you, 99.9% of the population ONLY BUYS 1 CD. Hold that thought for a moment.

SO, for every fan who will buy 1 CD that thought your performance was ‘cool’, or ‘over the top’, or that ‘you rock’; there are about a dozen ex-fans. In other words for every CD you sold with your performance last night you ‘UNSOLD’ about a dozen.

Kid, you save that kind of sh-t for your live performances in San Francisco and NYC. You cut back (big time) on that stuff when you perform in Dallas, OKC, or anywhere else in the heartland OR WHEN YOU ARE ON NATIONAL TV.

How many teenagers do you think got sent to bed early last night?

Financially, one was too many…

I hope you learn from this, I really do…

Somali Pirates Are Boobs

Somali pirates attacked the Maersk Alabama again. As you may recall, the ship was attacked in April and took ship captain Richard Phillips hostage. Remember the SEAL sharpshooters? They freed Phillips while killing 3 pirates. Remember the nighttime headshot on Easter? GO NAVY!

This time around, guards on board the U.S.-flagged cargo ship repelled the takeover attempt.

Pirates have increased their attacks in recent weeks as the monsoon season ends.

Some, as they say, never learn…
