Editor’s Note: Something new we’re trying here at Deep Into Sports: brief introductions–quick summaries, if you prefer–to our articles. Here I discuss the rare display of honest emotion from Chad Ochocinco in honor of deceased Cincinnati Bengal teammate Chris Henry.

The NFL’s Clown Prince Is Humbled

Chad Ochocinco is without a doubt the current clown prince of the National Football League. At times I’ve been quite critical of his antics (such as his ludicrous color blindness discrimination lawsuit), but, to tell the truth, I’ve grown to like the guy. Sure, he can frequently act out of line, but he represents the more humorous side of ego and cockiness that Terrell Owens is the epitome of negativity.

Heck, even the whole name-changing of Johnson to Ochocinco–which I formerly refused to recognize–in retrospect, you have to love the fact that he found a way to thumb his nose at the restrictions of the No Fun League in a manner they could not squelch. Audacious? Absolutely!

Sorry I’m late. I just chased some intruder in a red velour outfit off of the roof! He escaped in a huge sled driven by what looked like jackasses with antlers. I just missed catching him because the ice made our roof slippery -

Oh, hi honey… Say hello to my readers… What’s that?

Of course, I know we live in Southern California…

Okay, maybe I had one too many vodka tonics…I might’ve slipped on my own… Thanks for clearing that up, dear… Now–

–Do I know what time of year–what kind of question is–Pardon me…

… Well, um, yes one of the–reindeer, is it?–did have a nose that glowed.

Who? Santa? As in Claus? OMG, he did say, “And to all a good night!”

2009 NCAA College Football Bowl Picks

Bowl season is upon us, kicking off Saturday, December 19, with two games, the New Mexico Bowl and St. Petersburg Bowl.

That being the case, here are my picks for this year’s match-ups–take them with a grain of salt, or perhaps a couple margaritas.

NON-BCS BOWL GAMES

NEW MEXICO BOWL

Fresno State vs. Wyoming – Dec. 19
Pick: Fresno State

ST. PETERSBURG BOWL

Rutgers vs. UCF – Dec. 19
Pick: Rutgers

December Tampy Noms

The Yuletide month is becoming prime dime for Tampy nominations. So far, we have nominated…

  • Patriot beat writers for letting Bill Belichick off the hook for quitting during the Saints’ smack down of the Pats. After 9/11 gutless journalism has been the norm. Still, no excuse.
  • Belichick also deserves a nom for waving the white flag when he pulled Brady out, down by 21 with 5:00 to go. Also for the double standard he shows his team, sending four tardy players home because they were late for morning practices or meetings. These were grown men driving through a blizzard. Treating them like children will not make your team better. Contrast that overly strict standard with Randy Moss’ laziness of late–especially in Sunday’s close contest with Carolina. BB not only allowed Moss to continue to play, but PFT recently reported Belichick gushed about how much respect he has for Moss.
  • Moss gets a Tampy nom for acting like a prepubescent brat.
  • Steelers’ coach, Mike Tomlin is a worthy candidate. If you say you’re going to “unleash hell” in December, you might be well advised to tell your players, at least, specifically what that term means. More dedication to the run? Harder practices? Also, if you threaten to sit starters if necessary to prove a point and then not follow through, you do your team a disservice–and put your credibility at risk. Too many NFL coaches are like too many of today’s parents–more interested in being their child’s twitter buddy and not teaching them the value of discipline, accountability, and the word “NO”.

Crap 10

Okay, I admit it: I’ve been slow on the uptake in commentating about the 2009-2010 NHL, NBA and college basketball seasons. It’s not that I haven’t been following those sports, but some years I follow certain sports more closely than others, and in 2009 I paid a lot more attention to college football than I have the past couple seasons. With that added focus, other sports took somewhat of a backseat.

But now that college football is over (except for the bowls) I’ll be watching a lot more basketball and hockey.

So, let’s start off with a question that has many people scratching their heads:

What is up with the Pac-10?
