How Ed felt after knowing Oklahoma would be playing for the National Championship...
12 Men On The Field - In a new segment, once a week I will bring you 12 biggest names over the weekend so that you can be thoroughly entertained like when you saw Halle Berry "pop off" in Swordfish. Oh boy...Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.
1. Sam Bradford – Ed The Sports Fan cast his Heisman ballot (if he had one) for Oklahoma Sooners QB “Slingin” Sammy Bradford, and he feels good about it. Oklahoma claimed the #1 spot in the last BCS standings on Sunday, and are headed to Miami to take part in the 2009 BCS Championship. The Sooners have posted 60+ points in their last 5 games, and say what you want about that defense but they’re on the field a lot because their offense scores so quickly! So who’s gonna have to deal with OU on January 8th…
2. Percy Harvin – Harvin (sprained ankle) did not play this Saturday in the SEC Championship against then #1 Alabama. It didn’t matter. The Florida Gators triumphed without Harvin with a 31-20 win in the Georgia Dome. Now Tebow has one more opportunity to connect with his favorite target, in their hopes of their team winning their 2nd National Championship in the last 3 years and him personally winning his 2nd Heisman in 3 years.
3. Oscar De La Hoya – Go sit yo ass down…
4. Manny Pacquiao – Let me put it to you this way…Floyd “Money” Mayweather needs to sit his ass down and NOT come out and fight this man. Go put your money somewhere before the government uses your “stacks” to bailout the Big 3 in Detroit.
Pacquiao > Mayweather
Now, Ricky Hatton is going probably fight Manny Pacquiao next. Folks, if you would’ve asked me last week if I thought Manny vs. Oscar would be a great fight, I would’ve told you no. Its easy for me to say this now, but I had Manny winning that fight. I got the dough to prove it. But ladies and gentlemen, when the Spring of ’09 rolls around and you start hearing the promos of Pacquiao vs. Hatton. Go spend that $60 and watch the fight. Trust me. Pacquiao KO Hatton in Round 9.
5. Brian Westbrook – That game yesterday is the reason why people still believe in Westbrook, McNabb, and the IGGLES. The NY Football Giants looked horrible. Washington lost too. So did that team in North Texas…
6. Eldorado – Terrell Owens that is, his Dallas Cowboys fell flat by the hands of Big Ben and the Steel Curtain defense from Pittsburgh. Did Romo throw another interception? What was that Jay-Z line? “Well it was all good just a week ago…” The owner Jerral “Jerry” Jones just accused the only Cowboy that I will give ultimate respect, Marion Barber III, that he is soft??? They call this man “The Barbarian” and you just called him soft? We all saw Della Reese in Harlem Knights, that pinky toe will mess you up for real. T.O. went bonkers on the sidelines again, I’d love to see Greg Ellis just clothes line the bejesus out of him. Wouldn’t you enjoy that?
"LeBron, wherever you go you got me right?"
7. Stephen Curry – Dude was off the chain on Saturday, with LeBron James sitting courtside watching his every move. Curry then went into “I Don’t Give A F*ck” mode in a critical non-conference win Saturday over a very good North Carolina State team in Charlotte. Curry scored 44 points, converting 15 of 33 field goals and 10 of 13 free throws, dished out three assists and had three steals. WTF.
8. Alex Rodriguez – You decide to play for the Dominican Republic in the 2009 World Baseball Classic? Have you ever even been to the Dominican Republic? Can you find it on the map? WTF…
9. Colt McCoy - Texas Longhorns quarterback Colt McCoy will return for his senior season, the Austin American-Statesman reported Monday on its Web site.
"I'm not going anywhere," McCoy told the newspaper. "I'm coming back because we have a solid coaching staff," McCoy said. "And I'm coming back because I feel like I can develop the young receivers we have."
WHY WON’T YOU JUST GO AWAY???!?!?
10. Michelle Wie – Someone tell me how you make $20 Million in endorsements and yet you just got qualified to play golf in the LPGA Tour? That’d be like you winning the NASCAR championship and getting $20 Million but you don’t have your drivers’ license yet. WTF…
11. Donald Brown – The UConn tailback finished #1 in the nation in rushing with 1,822 yards. I just felt like this should be recognized.
12. 12 men on the field, 15-yard penalty...Derrick Rose – My main man’s NBA career is off to a phenomenal start. The number one overall pick is averaging 18 points and six assists so far in his rookie year, he's already become the leader of his Chicago Bulls squad, and his highlight reel moves are electrifying crowds across the land. It seems the only thing that can stop this wunderkind is the sinister threat of raw unsliced produce.
Derrick Rose isn't practicing Monday after needing 10 stitches to close a gash in his arm. The Bulls said Rose suffered the injury when he rolled over onto a knife he was using to carve an apple while in bed. Rose shouldn't miss any time, but that has to go pretty high up on the exalted list of bizarro athlete injuries. Maybe not as bad as throwing out your back while putting on socks, but it's close.
WTF
-Ed.

Or shooting yourself in the leg. I am with you on Oscar De La Hoya and the first commenter on Tim Tebow.
Ed - Don't worry about Texas and Colt McCoy. They're going to continue ranting and raving about being ripped off up until the start of the Fiesta Bowl. Once Ohio State gets ahold of them, silence will reign over Austin and you can pursue your National Championship in peace.

Bruh i like your segment ....and now as the spanish say "Que sera, sera" (whats done is done), I can say that CHOKElahoma actually would be a better match for Florida than Texas would. Although I stand by what I have been saying that Texas should go I think that Texas overacheived this year. They would have gotten beat the hell down by Florida...... Read Morecan't match that speed. You gotta stop takin shot at the Cowboys.....their lackluster play on the field is disrespectful to the star and the fans that love what that star means..The HELL with Tony Romo....I need to tell my mom to get the money back she spent in taxes on that new stadium
C'mon Ed, we can't get a Mike Teel? 447yds, 7 TD's? Can Rutgers get a little shine?
This could be one of the best sports rants of all time except for one thing. Yes, you hating yet again on the Cowboys, please stop that. I don't want to have to cut you.
Oh yeah, and like Ayarepee, my fellow Scarlet Knight, no Rutgers love? I know we had a sad 7-5 season and are playing a BS bowl but Teel (who I hate with a passion) did have a amazing game, broke records even.
Manny Pacquiao is a beast...like the OU offensive line
As much as I want to see Bradford win the Heisman, I'm starting to believe, more and more, that Tebow will win it again. They just beat an undefeated team, and he was the main reason why. Plus, he is beloved by folks who have a say in college football. Don't be surprised if his name is called on Saturday night, as the first two-time winner, since The Great Archie Griffin.
JAG you can stop the NONSENSE right there right now.... What has ohio state done this year to make you believe that? NOTHING ..their best win was against michigan state.... Yall played #1 USC...LOST.... #3 Penn State...LOST... what you think gonna happen when yall play #3 Texas... 1 is lucky 2 is a coincidence 3 is evidence that ohio state won't be able to beat a top ten team. If theres one thing I know is that Mack Brown has his boys ready to play in bowl games.... can't really say the same for tressel as of late... the fact that 7 weeks will have past, ohio state is a team where in big games the stars such as the "little animal" seem to not show up, and the fact that texas is a way better team than ohio state show that the fiesta bowl will be a good game for about three quarters until colt mccoy gets silly and puts up crazy numbers against osu... like 3 TDs!!! Hook'em Horns!!!!!
Hookhead63 - I remember Colt McCoy. He looked very ordinary (inadequate?)when Ohio State pummeled Texas 24-7 in Austin.
Expect an even more severe whuppin' at a neutral site.

Thank you JAG for takin' care of OU's lightweight. We have a bigger game to get ready for on the 6th...ahahhahahahaahhaha
Soul - The Buckeyes are happy to help end the discussion and give OU a clear path to an undisputed title.
Of course, if you had taken care of Texas yourself, we wouldn't have to clean up your mess. ;)
JAG
SOULonICE-Just worry about this Uptown Beatdown yall about to get from the Gators.... as of late it seems as if in big bowl games your little OU sooners get pummeled in to submission...so much for big game bob stoops.... and the National Championship is on the 8th not the 6th don't speed up this asswhoopin yall gonna catch sooner than you have to.
JAG-need I remind you that Colt McCoy was playing as a redshirt freshmen only in his 2nd game. He was going against a defense that had 2 years of experience on him. And remember the last two years osu suckeyes have been beaten into submission as of late.... it seems as if osu and ou have alot in common in these bowl games as of late.
Ok, Hookhead63, that was one "Suckeye" too many. You're over the limit.
Put your money where your big hook is. I've got six pints of Cincinnati's own Graeter's World Famous Ice Cream (adored by Oprah and Bill Cosby) that says Ohio State turns Colt into a McBoy again and flies out of Arizona with the "W". What you got? Don't bother thinking about your favorite flavors just yet, I don't think you'll need them.

Come on now I don't bet with ice cream...the whether even down here ain't appropriate for it. See down here in H-Town we rollin in something foreign on leather grip and grain and still tippin on 4 4's!!!! I bet them dead presidents!!! $50 says that Colt and Brian Orakpo hand osu suckeyes another bcs loss
Ok Hookem. I'll send a 50 to you if your boys pull off a miracle. However, I don't want money. Send me $50 worth of Longhorns nalia on Tues. Jan 6th. P.O. Box 16191 Cincinnati, OH 45216. I've been collecting wolverine gear there for four years. Some Longhorn merch would be a nice change of pace. I'm a 42 regular. Thanks in advance.
