Finished Product

Not sure if I ever actually posted a finished pic or not... but here are the cornhole boards.  

No Excuses

No real "reason" for the break in posting... chalk it up to laziness I suppose.

NCAA

I'm not going to spend a ton of space on this but...  there has got to be some changes in the NCAA.  Really two main things have just happened that prove, in my mind, beyond a shadow of a doubt that the NCAA is one of the most corrupt organizations in America that is so focused on money that they will throw common sense, logic, fair play out the window.

• Cam Newton.  NCAA ruled he is eligible because it was his dad, not him, that was asking for the cash.  While unfortunate that a parent would exploit their son like that, the NCAA has set a dangerous precedent.  Oh... so it was mom and dad that was trying to get paid?  Well by all means, go ahead and play.  Basically this now means that every shady parent of a blue chip recruit will be walking around like a bellhop, extending an expecting hand.  Now I'm not so down on humanity that I think this scenario is the "norm" which is exactly why I think the NCAA missed a golden opportunity to say, "Enough is enough" there is no grey area here.  If you accept, or in this case, attempt to accept money or other compensation as a collegiate athlete there are consequences.  One has to really really wonder if there were other motivations here, with the SEC title game and a BCS title game looming... those games would not be near as exciting with a Cam Newton-less Auburn.
• Second also involves NCAA and football and the BCS, now I could rant on my hatred of this absurd process for DAYS, but I'll say this.  IF the projections are correct and Boise State (11-1) their loss being to a #17 Nevada ends up playing in the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl against a 6-6 unranked Clemson who got WORKED by Wake Forest, Maryland, and... Presbyterian?  This is an insult of epic proportions, and if it comes to pass I may boycott college football in 2011.  I'm not even joking, as a fan I'm tired of this mess.  I really think running up the score is poor form, but I honestly hope that IF given the opportunity Boise State hang as many points as possible on Clemson if that happens to be 100 so be it.
