The SXU Cougars are riding high right now. They’re 10-0 with the regular season about to end this coming Saturday against the University of St Francis. They’re ranked 3rd in the nation in the NAIA and their players have been setting individual and team records almost on a weekly basis.

**The Washington Redskins, apparently alarmed at the thought that there might still be one or two people in the world who take their franchise seriously, are trying out JAMARCUS RUSSELL at the quarterback position.
**The latest personification of why I prefer college football to NFL football: Randy Moss. Nothing more needs to be said, just … Randy Moss.
