Football = Politics????? (ESPN)

[huskerpony]

Funny thing I just heard on ESPN radio--don't even know who was saying this because I was only in the car for a few minutes--but this guy was comparing the political candidates to different programs. Not trying to make any political statement here in any way, just thought it was funny. Paraphrased a bit, but here's what he said:

Hillary = Ohio State
--Unknown whether they have what it takes to be a champion. Not saying they don't have all the necessary things in place as far as talent, coaching, facilities, and a solid traditon, but can they make the necessary adjustments to do what it takes to win it?

McCain = Gerogia
--He's been here before, and will probably be the bridesmaid again. He's got a winning program and is well respected, but will probably go in and lose in South Carolina again.

Ron Paul = Hawaii
--Apparently no explanation was necessary on this one.

Obama = West Virginia
--America may not be ready to accept a National Champion from the Big East. Not that they shouldn't be--they absolutely should be--but the country just may not be ready for that yet.

Guiliani = USC
--Mainly focused on the big games. He can go out and win against anyone in the big contests, but he just might fall asleep against Stanford, and you have to beat Stanford if you want to win.


Seems like there might have been one more. If I remember it later, I'll come back and add it.

Well, can pretty much kiss this thread good-bye.
