    I'll be really honest... I get giddy whenever someone makes a Herman Wouk reference. Though, it's Captain Queeg. But the comparison is apt.

    FHB - You've obviously have read too much of my work if you are able to figure out who I meant.

    I love it when coaches start going "Queeg". They think the world is out to get them.

    What can I say? I've been reading your work for five years or so. That was even before Chris L beat you out for that columnist gig with the NY Post.

    Those of you who say that Ty left the cupboard bare are dismissing the likes of Brady Quinn, Jeff Smardzija, etc., etc., the same players responsible for 9 and 10-win seasons.

    OK, so maybe it's Charlie who waved the magic wand and made those guys great overnight (except when playing USC, Ohio State, Michigan and LSU), but if that's the case, what did he do with his magic wand this past offseason?

    On the other hand, don't rule out Weis pulling a rabbit out of his hat this weekend at Penn State. He just got a wakeup call and his pride is going to kick it into high gear against Joe Pa.

    Wouk is my favorite. Far and away. Don't Stop The Carnival.

    Can his pride block anyone? If Weis pulls a rabbit out of his hat, it will be a chocolate one to eat.

    Good to see waving that Blue and Gold pom-pon didn't tire you out Saturday...

    It's also highly likely that Penn State isn't any good.

    In the same vein, it's quite likely that if my aunt had testicles, she would be my uncle.
