Sweet relief. Like me, they're still fuming about that GameDay song:
Big and Rich have made their way onto our Orbital Death Ray list, along with Mark Shapiro. For a long time college football existed as a fiefdom apart from the Sportstainmenttastic! world of ESPN–pleasantly stodgy, frills-free coverage of a sport that allowed you to soak in the atmosphere of each game through the screen. Now we have Nick Lachey interviewing people and Big and Rich suggesting that we need more Ying with our Ying Yang. Two old pieces of redneck jerky–including one who one of our readers pointed out, bears a striking resemblance to Phyllis Diller–who were pulled out of a hat at random by marketing schmucks in New York who were like, “Okay, people. Red state sport—we need us some edgy country!” Total, horrid, absolute fecality soiling the last show we watch on the network.
We’re coming…and we’re shit-tayyy!!!
That song has stigmatized college football even more than Phil Fulmer.

There's more excellent bile on mgoblog, too.
Talk about a good and a bad thought coming so close together. At the beginning of the season, when it became clear that every week Big, Rich, and Cowboy Shockey would, in fact, be coming, to various cit...ays, I though this:
"Well, one good thing about having gone to a school that isn't any good at football is that it makes it far less likely that Big, Rich, and the gang would ever be comin'...to my city...wait, I went to school in Nashville, so they're already here!"
