Lazy... Saturday? Have some links.


We all know that this time of year things are slow. We're also working on some other things that are taking longer than expected. We can't let the site idle, so here's some stories you may or may not have come across recently.

The captains of the football team recently held a press conference. Little did we know, the Collegian does stuff in the summer. They have a nice write-up on the whole event. -The Daily Collegian-

I can't speak for the rest of the staff here, but I read every article written in The Collegian during the 2004 and 2006 calendar years.

Here's the link a lengthy transcript of the conference. -GoPsuSports.com-

Scirrotto was asked about team exercise on and off the field and had this to say:

A lot of guys are doing a lot of community service, doing great things, helping people out. A lot of guys are working, so it's real exciting to know what we've got going on and its exciting to see how everything pans out.
There was no mention as to whether or not the community service was court ordered or volunteer.

and now that we've taken a quote out of context, we feel like real journalists.

Next up, Comcast and The Big11Ten Network reached a deal that will allow people in Big11Ten country to get it. Honestly, we don't know one single person who had the network last year. If we wanted to watch a game we had to get inside, or go to Frat-tastic Bill Pickle's. -bigtennetwork.com-

We read the article and are trying to figure out who gets the channel. It says expanded basic, which to us isn't very basic at all. Once you expand basic, isn't it no longer basic? Regardless, Comcast picking up the network is good news for every fan.

Last week, Penn State announced their schedules through 2012. -GoPSUSports.com-

We really love out of conference play and are thrilled to see three games a year against the Charmin Bears.

Toughest Non Conference Opponent Available

Playing Alabama doesn't cancel out the combo of Kent State, Youngstown and Temple.

On ESPN.com, Joe turned up in an article about football legends.
Kind of a no brainer. -ESPN.com-
Look for the same article about every sport at the beginning of their respective season.

Duke sucks at football. o rly? -Courier-Journal-

Notre Dame is going to bring their exceedingly average program to NBC for 8 more years. -Mediocrity-

Like us today, Mark Schlabach mailed in this article about faces to watch during the coming season. Tim Tebow? Really? Pat White? Way to go way out on a limb with those predictions.
-ESPN.com-

Again, look for this article just before NFL season starts. Swap some names, and some dude has a another article.

And finally, we close with this. -Weird People and their pets-
We're going to skip straight to the pumpkins. First, that's not a pet. Second, if you're going to decorate a pumpkin, isn't cutting it almost a requirement? Painted pumpkin = fail. Put on your man pants, and get out the knife.
