Tinker Town: "One of the great things that most people like about sports, and the game of football. Is that the art of lying is not an option. Lying get you nothing but boos in sports. Because sports are results oriented. Men and women against the task of that sport. Politics has nothing to do with running faster, trying harder, pushing the load. To the victor goes the spoils."

2012 College Football Video Countdown Reaches No. 1
LSU, Alabama, Oregon Top The 2012 SB Nation Studios Top 25
SB Nation Studios (subscribe on YouTube!) is ramping up its college football coverage (which already includes Shutdown Fullback along with much more) as the season approaches, continuing with five more videos in the SB Nation Studios 2012 Preseason Top 25 countdown series by Dan Rubenstein and Bill Connelly.
At No. 1, we've got LSU, which appears to be solving its biggest weakness by introducing a big arm at quarterback:
No. 2, the defending national champs who've lost a ton of talent (as usual): Alabama.
Pleased to note the SB Nation Studios No. 3 is Oregon, which actually has a full assortment of scholarship players.
But USC wasn't overlooked, as their vast range of offensive weaponry powers them to No. 4.
And at No. 5, because no top five would ever be complete without them, Oklahoma. Read more and see the videos ...http://www.sbnation.com/

For four days, the SEC's top quarterbacks -- and a number of other elite ones from all across the country -- converged on Thibodaux, La., to participate in the Manning Passing Academy. Their time was mostly devoted to guiding younger campers through various drills and activities, but there were more than enough windows for them to sling the ball around and size up each other.
"It's an interesting relationship," Arkansas' Tyler Wilson said. "You always want to be nice, present yourself in a manner that they like you. But you also want to know, 'Hey, that guy's competitive and he wants to beat my tail when he steps on the field with me.'' Read more...http://www.al.com/
