Around SBN: Keith Hernandez Reacts To Gary Carter's Passing

A New Word to describe U$C

Tonight on the National Spelling Bee (still on the West Coast until 10pm on ABC) I learned a brand new word!  It totally fits the community college across town.

Star-divide

shamateurism:

Practice of treating certain athletes as non-professional so they are eligible for certain competitions while subsidizing them with illegal payments.

The second Mr. F and I heard that word, he said "cite:  OJ Mayo."  I said "cite:  Reggie Bush."

You learn something new everyday.

Now that is funny word

I think that we should also do a massive write-in to the Oxford Dictionary to have the word “scandal” changed to “SCandal.”

and don't forget trOJan

I kind of like explaining to people here in Florida who don’t understand about that place, that you can’t spell SCandal without sc, and you can’t spell trOJan without OJ. Then they get it.

Here in Alabama

They’ve had their suspicions for years. I guess my whole purpose for spending the next couple of years here was to confirm what they knew all along.

As I’ve said before, here in Birmingham, whether you root for Alabama or Auburn, probably the one non-SEC school you hate the most is South Central.
