As we mentioned in the last post's comments, it is time for the Sportsmeat College Football Bowl Game Final Jeopardy-Like Prognostication Fiasco (the "SCFBGFJLPF").

Here are the rules:

1) Each player must pick at least 5 bowl games on which to wager.
2) Each player must wager at least 5 points on each game.
3) Each player must make a pick on the championship game.
4) Nobody may wager more than 50% of their available points on any one game.
5) Each player must wager all of their points (BBD must wager a total of 114 points, Dave Law must wager 67.5, etc.).

Again, here's the standings:

Budds - 114 points
Snoop - 97
Maxipriest - 95.5
EJ - 94.5
Joe - 85
Big Thunder - 70
Dave Law - 67.5
Y.A. Shoes - 29

For sanity's sake, I'm not dealing in half points. So here is the largest wager amount available to each contestant:

Budds - 57 points
Snoop - 49
Maxipriest - 48
EJ - 48
Joe - 43
Big Thunder - 35
Dave Law - 34
Y.A. Shoes - 15

Discussion Topics:

1) TJ Ford went to the hospital (again) after somehow landing on his head following an Al Horford foul. Horford was ejected from the game. Over 60% on ESPN.com think Horford should be suspended, fined, or both. What's your take on that play?

**Please note -- the picture at the right is not from Tuesday's game. It is from 2004 -- the other time Ford was taken off the court on a stretcher with his head immobilized.

2) The Mitchell report supposedly names Roger Clemens as a juicer. Does this surprise you? If so, are you F'ing retarded? Did anyone not see this coming? What's next? Bret Boone? Maybe Brady Anderson or Luis Gonzalez? Discuss.
