GOAT faithful,
Hello to all 6 of you that read this! Good day on Saturday, looking to add to it. “Buddy D” hopefully with your changes we did pretty good this week, don’t know if it was enough to win, but a respectable showing anyway!
GOAT NEWS
The new BCS standings are out right after the “GOAT Mid Season Report Cards”, coincidence?
The GOAT is saddened by the tough news that UCONN player Jasper Howard was cut down in his prime in a senseless on-campus incident that lead to his untimely death. After having a career game against Louisville, Jasper was involved in altercation after a school dance where he was stabbed in the abdomen and later died at the UCONN medical center. My thoughts and prayers are with his family, and the two teammates who tended to Howard directly after the attack, who watch their friend and teammate die in their arms.
Is the Oracle and I the only ones that has seen the erosion of a promising young QB? I’ll bet my shirt that Terrell Pryor is thinking now that RICHROD is not so crazy anymore. What a terrible waste of talent Pryor has become. The OSU offense is absolutely a “stack of acorns”, a piled up, jumbled mess. These jackasses’s can’t get out of their own way, and Pryor has become a TURNOVER MACHINE. I remember when this guy burst on to the scene, big press conference surrounded by microphones, giving “the Vest” and all of Columbus new hope that maybe….just maybe…they wouldn’t get beat by 20+ in another BCS bowl game. Fast forward to the present, and now “The Vest” is hoping to get an NFL call up, and Pryor looks worse than whoever is playing back-up at Bemidji St.?!!? Pryor may be a good WR in due time at the next level, but right now, give me the Washington St. defense and a half-hour to prepare and I’m dominating this guy for 4 quarters. OSU is now the 3rd best team in the state and that is being generous…
Idaho is 6-1 overall, 7-0 ATS (I cashed’um )…watch out…I smell a BCS buster…our fresh French fries
Officials don’t throw the game… and if the uprights were spread out 40 more feet …..Arkansas wins outright…, good lord that Arkansas kicker wasn’t even close…he was riding the FLORIDA ML!
If you still don’t believe that college football games are not fixed…please YOUTUBE the Troy/FIU game…and the Washington/IDAHO game for that matter…. (you will only need to watch the final :30 seconds of both games) Holy Crap! FIXED I TELL YOU! VEGAS WASN’T BUILT ON WINNERS
LOCK of the past weekend… Charlie Weiss stole his “Jump suit” from the grounds crew at ND stadium…Tell me someone else saw it!… Holy Fuzzy Grundels Spiderman! $2,000,000 a year at ND gets you a horrible “Maintenance Crew Jumper” and a 42” Zero Turn Lawn mower? I know your trying to save money, but don’t just broadcast “I’M GETTING FIRED”!!!
That shits confusing down there in ATL, ain’t it Frank….I tried to tell you, you should have checked out the blog, I gotcha covered…Like GT did…
Before I get out of here, I would like to give a warm congratulations to Tyler Brown of McComb, Ohio. The 16 year old scored his first and probably only TD of his life this past Friday Night. You see Tyler’s job up until this year has been manager of the McComb High football team, but this year the coach talked Tyler’s mom into letting him dress out for the football team. Tyler got his shot to play against Vanlue High School as McComb was leading 40-7 and he didn’t disappoint. Tyler went in as QB and scored on a 1 yard plunge to solidify a big win for McComb. Dylan Mears was suppose to get the call to hammer in the TD, as he was the workhorse on the drive, but he removed himself from the game so that Tyler could get the TD and the well deserved glory. Not bad for a young man that will never see the game tape, or the expressions on his team mate’s faces, or the score board light up afterwards, or the cheerleaders and fans screaming his name, or read his name in the local paper….. You see, Tyler Brown is blind, but that didn’t stop him from chasing, finding and grabbing his dream with both hands. Congrats again Tyler, you have Da GOAT’s upmost respect, as does your coach, and team mates.
Enjoy,
DA GOAT

Mid Season Report Cards
GOAT faithful,
Good evening, sorry I haven't been on top of my game with my posting, but I am back and hopefully will be filling you with more BS then you can handle! First and foremost, we had a great weekend with 5-1 on teaser and straight plays, looking to build on a running 13-4 record overall in the past three weeks. It appears that we did also improve on the "Buddy D" picks going 10-5, some of which I just blew it on and MIZZOU screwed us.
I believe it is time to hand out our Mid-season report cards, as it is a GOAT tradition, so lets see how every one shapes up and who is making the grade, so to speak.
1. Bama
Offense: B+
Balanced attacked, McElroy is efficient and workman like. Like to see Jones more involved. Running game is stout
Defense: A+
Hands down best in the country, No argument
Special Teams: B+
Only a B+ because Arenas hasn't HOUSED one yet....stay tuned
Coaching: A+ (The second coming of Jesus Christ...I took photo's of Saban at UK, there were angels surrounding him)
2. Florida
Offense: B+
Timmy TeBop is doing well, not spectacular, but he doesn't lose, whats not to like
Defense: A-
Big D, Needs to create more turnovers
Special Teams: B
Coaching: A+

Freshman QB is good, and test against ND will tell the tale, lots of play makers around him, need to get it really rolling.

You lost to Washington...enough said
Special Teams: B
Coaching: A-
You lost to Washington Pete?!?! Preparation falls back on you...
4. Ohio State

Special Teams: A
JORDAN SHIPLEY...everyone else can sit down
Coaching: A

Gets the job done..Not THE U of old but getting pretty close
Special Teams: B
Coaching: A+
Randy Shannon has it figured out and has his kids buying into his program. He has surrounded himself with great people and his recruiting is tops in the country. Remember this team is still VERY YOUNG…

What will be blaring thru the loud speakers at Illinois Stadium on Saturday
Jump Around (ZOOKER STYLE)
We’ve Packed it up and packed it in
Let me begin
you came to win
If you lose to us that's a sin
We couldn’t tear a sack up
We don’t have a back up
Our running game is 2 yards and a Motha F-ing stack up
Get up, stand up, run it up!
Come on, you can put some points up
Our QB throws it and it’s a drop
and I got more BAD Schemes than there's cops at the Dunkin
Donuts shop
Sure 'nuff I get the finger from the kids on the Hill
Plus my mom and my pops
We’ve shut it down [2x]
Zooker’s sorry ass has ran us into the ground
into the ground [3x]
pull up the bus and hammer down.
Score! [18x]
Zooker’s backers are eating crow
If have any suggestions how to win let me know
Word to your moms, just throw long bombs
Juice is on the bench and our defense is wrong
And just like the Prodigal Son I've returned
and if you take the POINTS, you're bound to get burned
Cause you got offense and I ain't got none
So if you come to win just run the shotgun
Yo I’m a tool, I’m overrated and I drool
Try and step to me you'll cash your bet that’s the rule
I gots no skill, come get your fills
I got ADD and I need my f**kin pills
We’ve shut it down [2x]
Zooker’s sorry ass has ran us into the ground
into the ground [3x]
pull up the bus and hammer down.
Score! [18x]
I'm the bottom of the barrel, I wish I was Pete Carroll
Somebody call the “Roughriders” and get me Graham Harrell
Or better yet the terminator
Like Arnold Schwarzenegger
We got no hope, we even suck on Sega
I’m going out like a bitch
I’ve dug my own ditch
Can someone help me out and Me and Urban switch
Come to our town, We’ve laid the f**k down
Even Steve Krapthorpe thinks I'm a clown
Recruits! I’m coming to get ya, coming to get ya
Spitting out bullshit and should be fired in Novemba!
We’ve shut it down [2x]
Zooker’s sorry ass has ran us into the ground
into the ground [3x]
pull up the bus and hammer down.
Score! [32x]

The National "Touch" Football League
GOAT Faithful,
As promised, today I will be touching on what’s going on in the NFL. Here is my assessment of the first couple of weeks of NFL football.
1. NE - Tom Brady, step it up and quit worrying about your knee. I need you to carry my fantasy team and right now, you’re no better than Kerry Collins and your killing me. Hitting is part of football and somewhere during the recovery process, you forgot that.
2. Browns – Holy Horse Crap ya’ll are bad! What a debacle of a football team. No QB, No RB, and a WR that likes to pick “Bar Fights” with 5’0 guys. I will be dropping you Mr. Edwards from my fantasy team because you’re a “Gutterball”, and I guess you might as well pick bar fights, because you’re “HANDS” are not good for anything else, much less catching a football.
3. Redskins – Dan, you paid WAY too much for “Albert Haynesworst” and not enough for Jay Cutler. This team is worst then bad, it’s “North Texas” bad. Campbell couldn’t win a fight with against a man with NO ARMS, and Portis has nothing to work with. The offense is horrible and the defense is not very good. This team does fit the city it’s in…”turmoil at every position; and spending WAY too much money and getting NO RESULTS”
4. Saints – High flying and fun to watch. Good team, needs more defense, could make the playoff’s and do well.
5. Jets – Rex Ryan “talks the talk”, and thus far has “walked the walk” win a big win against NE. Mark Sanchez has done really well this year and is maturing before our very eyes. If he can do just enough to win and keep from trying to do too much, then the defense has a chance to carry this team into the play offs.
6. Baltimore – LOTS - O –TALENT, and Flacco is the real deal in his second year at the QB spot. “Whatchu talk’n bout” Willis McGahee has been a huge help to my fantasy team and a huge player in Baltimore. Couple with the best NFL defense, this is a team, that if it can get past NE and the Steelers in the playoff, may be good enough to get rings this year. Oh, and a COVERING MACHINE thus far(Until NE this week, but I’m not mad)
7. San Fran. – Mike Singletary has found it in SF this year and his players are buying into it. Hard nose defense and an efficient offense have this team looking really good early on. A tough road will tell if this team can get to the playoffs. The loss of Frank Gore may hurt if Glenn Coffee cannot pick up the slack. Every week this team is in a position to win and had it not been for MIRACLEFARVE then they would be undefeated at this point.
8. Dallas – Good Damn Jesus….Did you just lose to Denver?!?!? You got a 750 million dollar scoreboard that keeps getting LIT UP by the OTHER TEAMS! Wade Phillips is an “Oil Rig Fire” and Tony Homo is “Speed Boat Wreck”. You got rid of T.O. too help you solve your problems, which gave you a whole new set of problems….you got rid of TD! You looked good the first couple of weeks against the “Bottom feeders of the NFL” but then the NY football tackle GIANTS brought you back down to Earth. HOMO+PHILLIPS+JONES+NO TO=”SHORT BUS FIRE”
9. Philly – Put VICK in…RIGHT NOW
10. Detroit – Congrats on winning your first game in 2 yrs! You beat the “Deadskins”. 1-15 is not 0-16! Champagne everyone and let’s quit now!
11. Vikings – All hail BRETT FARVE!!! This guy is unreal, I mean he’s getting AARP mail, yet is 26-5 in his last 31 games with a good rocket. He has plenty of zip on the ball and has not shown any signs of “IMPLODING” to date. Adrian Peterson is a little upset with lack of carries, but with sacrifice comes rewards. Farve is worth every penny to date and know has beaten every team in the NFL, including the Packers last night. This is a Super Bowl team with a balanced attack and good defense. It’s going to be interesting to see how this team reacts after a loss.
12. Chicago – Hello Mr. Cutler, welcome home! Remember, this is a “Blue Collar” town that doesn’t want to hear you’re whining, so keep lighting it up and you will be just fine. Love to see Cutler doing well here, like the new Cutler, not the old one!
13. St. Louis – Good Grief…”Greatest Show on Turf” has turned into the “Greatest loss of Self-Worth” or “Greatest curse on Turf” take your pick….
14. Indy – PEYTON MANNING
15. The Damn Carolina Panthers – Although the Carolina Panthers had a NON- LOSS this week due to having a “BYE”, Jake Delhomme still had it rough. Delhomme threw 4 picks, 2 pick “6’s”, had a fumble loss and was sacked 8 times while playing QB in a “Special Olympics” sponsored Quadriplegic wheelchair pick up football game on Sunday. He was benched at the half...
This is all I have for now on the NFL, there is a lot to touch on, but I haven’t the time at the moment. More to follow tomorrow! Enjoy!

If he can do just enough to win and keep from trying to do too much, then the defense has a chance to carry this team into the play offs.
6. Baltimore – LOTS - O –TALENT, and Flacco is the real deal in his second year at the QB spot. “Whatchu talk’n bout” Willis McGahee has been a huge help to my fantasy team and a huge player in Baltimore. Couple with the best NFL defense, this is a team, that if it can get past NE and the Steelers in the playoff, may be good enough to get rings this year. Oh, and a COVERING MACHINE thus far(Until NE this week, but I’m not mad)
7. San Fran. – Mike Singletary has found it in SF this year and his players are buying into it. Hard nose defense and an efficient offense have this team looking really good early on. A tough road will tell if this team can get to the playoffs. The loss of Frank Gore may hurt if Glenn Coffee cannot pick up the slack. Every week this team is in a position to win and had it not been for MIRACLEFARVE then they would be undefeated at this point.
8. Dallas – Good Damn Jesus….Did you just lose to Denver?!?!? You got a 750 million dollar scoreboard that keeps getting LIT UP by the OTHER TEAMS! Wade Phillips is an “Oil Rig Fire” and Tony Homo is “Speed Boat Wreck”. You got rid of T.O. too help you solve your problems, which gave you a whole new set of problems….you got rid of TD! You looked good the first couple of weeks against the “Bottom feeders of the NFL” but then the NY football tackle GIANTS brought you back down to Earth. HOMO+PHILLIPS+JONES+NO TO=”SHORT BUS FIRE”
9. Philly – Put VICK in…RIGHT NOW
10. Detroit – Congrats on winning your first game in 2 yrs! You beat the “Deadskins”. 1-15 is not 0-16! Champagne everyone and let’s quit now!
11. Vikings – All hail BRETT FARVE!!! This guy is unreal, I mean he’s getting AARP mail, yet is 26-5 in his last 31 games with a good rocket. He has plenty of zip on the ball and has not shown any signs of “IMPLODING” to date. Adrian Peterson is a little upset with lack of carries, but with sacrifice comes rewards. Farve is worth every penny to date and know has beaten every team in the NFL, including the Packers last night. This is a Super Bowl team with a balanced attack and good defense. It’s going to be interesting to see how this team reacts after a loss.
12. Chicago – Hello Mr. Cutler, welcome home! Remember, this is a “Blue Collar” town that doesn’t want to hear you’re whining, so keep lighting it up and you will be just fine. Love to see Cutler doing well here, like the new Cutler, not the old one!
13. St. Louis – Good Grief…”Greatest Show on Turf” has turned into the “Greatest loss of Self-Worth” or “Greatest curse on Turf” take your pick….
14. Indy – PEYTON MANNING
15. The Damn Carolina Panthers – Although the Carolina Panthers had a NON- LOSS this week due to having a “BYE”, Jake Delhomme still had it rough. Delhomme threw 4 picks, 2 pick “6’s”, had a fumble loss and was sacked 8 times while playing QB in a “Special Olympics” sponsored Quadriplegic wheelchair pick up football game on Sunday. He was benched at the half...
This is all I have for now on the NFL, there is a lot to touch on, but I haven’t the time at the moment. More to follow tomorrow! Enjoy!

Week 4
GOAT Faithful,
Did not get to post my picks as I was tailgating in Lexington, Ky. For the record, the GOAT had:
Straight Lines
West Virginia -17
Northwestern+8 (CASHED)
NCSU +3.5
Washington+13.5 (CASHED)
Washington/ND Over (CASHED)
Miami +7.5 (CASHED)
Bama-16.5 (CASHED)
Auburn +2.5 (CASHED)
Houston-15
Tease:
Arky+6
Cal +12
Miami+15
Parlay:
Northwestern/Bama (CASHED)
NFL:
Tease: (CASHED)
Saints-1
San Diego+12
Oh well, doesn’t matter now! Moving right along….The week that was College tackle football #4 was as good as advertised. I will discuss what the GOAT brought away from this week. I will also be including NFL action in this discussion tommorrow. So here are the high points of the College Football week.
1. WEST VIRGINIA - WV is an absolute “Coal Mine Fire”…capping this team is like catching fish in dried up pond. 4 fumbles in the red zone, an interception and an immediate fumble, and a defense that allowed Colorado to score 24 points! Noel is DEVINE, scampering for 220 yards and 2 Tds and they were covering 35-17. But, in true WV fashion, they lay down and let Colorado score in the end and get the cover with :03 left. I bet Slaton and White got PAID on this one. (They have before).
2. LOUISVILLE - “THE VILLE”…..”THE VILLE”?!?!?! Are you f**king kidding me?!?!? Not only has Kragthorpe successfully run this program in the ground, but now, they have “THE VILLE” written across the front of their uniforms. I have seen some stupid things in my day, and this ranks easily in my top 5. This is not Miami, and you are not Thug U. This is a well respected, red blooded, higher education university. I would be absolutely embarrassed and would not contribute another damn dime to this program if my life depended on it, if I were a Booster. Get this guy out of there before he rubs off on Petino! Not to mention you got “Skull Drug” by Dave Wannstead??!
3. ILLINOIS - Hey Juicy, stop throwing it to the other team and your “NFL DRAFT STOCK” will quit plummeting. I know it doesn’t help that the “Zooker” has packed it in for the winter, but hang in there buddy, They always need half-ass talent in the Canadian Leagues.
4. MIAMI - Randy Shannon is worth every penny he has EARNED at Miami. I hate it, but Miami is for real.
5. ALABAMA - Bama is my #1 team, if I had a vote. Try to argue? DEFENSE WINS CHAMPIONSHIPS.
6. Cal - I have not seen a team implode like CAL in a long time! What a damn joke. Not only are they bad, but they are REAL BAD. 72-6 in 2 GAMES?!?!? Best is a good running back against SUSPECT defenses, he is not Heisman Material.
7. OKLAHOMA - The “SOONER” SANK somewhere off the Miami coast!!! QB’s are important, and Teaching BACK-UP QB’s is just as important. Bob, please tell Landry Jones that he is not Magnum PI, shave the ‘stache and win a meaningful ball game. Your going down in flames!
8. FSU – You make me sick
9. AUBURN – Look out SEC, Chisick(sp?) has got a 5-0 ball club on his hands, and they look good! Chesick(sp?) has now won more games at Auburn in one season then he did in his entire tenure at Iowa State. It’s unbelievable how speed and talent can make a coach look good and his prior team look so bad. Long road ahead, but this team may make some waves if they keep winning.
10. Oregon – after their debacle on the road at Boise St., Chip Kelly has got this team rolling. They look really good against CAL and have one big test left playing USC at home, might be a ROSEY future for this team, especially if the RUNNING GAME gets back on track(more on that later).
11. Notre Dame – I mean, this team really has “JESUS” on their side. The Luck is still alive and well.
12. Houston – I talk you up, and you let me down…back to being a “Never gonna be”
I reserve this time to commend Chip Kelly. LaGarrette Blount did not deserve a year long suspension, and I think that if he has stuck to the program that Kelly put in place for him, then by all means, let him play ball. A lot have and will disagree, but it is just like the GOAT said. If he does get re-instated, then cooler heads did prevail. Oregon jumped the gun on the year long suspension, plain and simple. If it were Tebow, Bradford, or McCoy that did this, 1-4 game would be enough. He, like Vick, has served enough time. I am very pleased with this decision on the part of the Oregon Athletic Program.
Tomorrow is being reserved for the NFL.
