That is good....

Spurrier claiming to hold some sort of moral high ground over Jim Tressel is like bin Ladin claiming to be collecting for the Hebrew Youth Fund.

Yeah, me too. Not a big laugh, but it was worth a small chuckle.

Its Spurrier. This is his way of paying homage to a fellow coach.

fair enough, but at least Citrus is along the same lines as Tangerine... you don't see them renaming the Holiday Bowl the Met Life Bowl. we get it. basically, my attitude towards Capital One is "you sponsor the freaking bowl game. we get it. there's no need to change the name."

South Carolina is playing No. 2 LSU this week. In a conference call on Sunday, Gamecocks coach Steve Spurrier revealed his vote - and took a shot at Tressel.
"I can honestly say I voted them (LSU) No. 1," Spurrier said. "I'm not pulling a Jim Tressel - y'all can check it out."

It would be sweeter than honey for Tressel to get back at him some time in the future. I can see it clearly:
Reporter: "Jim, with all the success that you've had at the collegiate level, have you considered taking a shot at the Pro game?"
Jim Tressel: "No, I haven't. I wouldn't want to pull a Steve Spurrier."

And there's a whole lot of people that don't really have much understanding of what it takes to be good at this game but yet love to have opinions. If you struggle taking criticism, then you need to not be at Ohio State or not be playing the game of football. - Jim Tressel
