Richardson not winning the Heisman?

What a joke...

Heisman type stiffarm from America's
greatest football player regardless
of anti-Alabama sentiments
     I have to admit to not being much on conspiracy theories. I don't believe the earth is flat. I do think we landed men on the moon, and that Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone assassin of President Kennedy. However; if Trent Richardson doesn't win the Heisman Trophy I'm headed to the grassy knoll to to find a few sportswriters and voters who didn't select Trent.  When I find them they will be dividing up ill gotten gains from schools like Baylor and corportations like ABC and its puppy dog, ESPN. I knew that Trent probably couldn't win the Heisman Trophy the moment that all the crying and whining for Oklahoma State to play in the BCS Championship Game began.  Everyone was so upset at Alabama they decided to punish Trent. There is the one conspriracy I believe exists. That one, and the clown circus has run out of people to argue in the Republican debates. Only joking.

     I have seen RGIII play. I loved watching him deliever the knife to Oklahoma but to say he is better than Trent Richardson is patently ridiculous. Same thing for Andrew Luck. He couldn't beat Oregon and I have wife beaters for clients that could have beaten Oregon's defense. The Big 12 and PAC 10, as far as football is concerned, is like basketball with 12 on each side. 45-44 is a common score. Do you honestly think that Luck or RG could score on LSU or Alabama like they scored on league defenses out West?  My wife is on 5-2 and weighs in at a whopping 118 pounds, and she would start at middle linebacker in either of those leagues. Granted, she wouldn't be first team all-conference but would be a lock for honorable mention.

PAC 10 and Big 12 just don't cut the mustard...

     The defenses for the Big 12 and PAC 10 look like Auburn's defense but at least they don't take steroids. Alabama and LSU could play Oregon, Stanford, Baylor, and Oklahoma State and beat them 10 out 10 times. Playing against an SEC defense is like going to a bar where they give you a knife when you come in if you left yours back in the F 150.  Trent Richardson would have averaged 250 yards against any defense in those leagues. I seriously think that the PAC 10 models their defenses after the Guatemalan defense forces. The couldn't finish in the upper division of a good lingerie league.

     I heard one of those ESPN fools the other night saying Richardson shouldn't win because he only had 89 rushing against LSU. He also had the same amount on pass receptions for a total of 168. That's pretty good for a player going against the second best defense in the SEC that was only giving up 250 an outing. I have no doubt that either of those quarterbacks could play in the SEC. They would be great players. They would not, however; be stat laden Heisman Trophy types however.  I am certainly predjudiced. When you see someone who had dominated the most dominant league in the NCAA you get to be a little jaded about who is really good.

     Ask LSU who they would rather not play. End of the coversation.
