| STALLARD: The 2007 Goofi awards
And finding a single, worthy recipient of a Goofi Award — named for a former heavyweight boxer who legally changed his name to "Goofi" — proved a daunting task indeed. Still, I think you'll agree that the names on this list deserved every consideration. Michael Vick, Atlanta Falcons/U.S. Penitentiary (Leavenworth) — Nobody, and I mean nobody, spawned as much outrage as Vick after word came that he'd been a major player in a dog-fighting ring. News and video that Vick had reportedly been involved in the brutal killings of dogs that didn't "win" sickened even the most hardened viewer. The stupid part, to me, is that the guy's making an ungodly sum of money from his NFL contract and endorsements (at the time, Vick's was the top-selling jersey among fans).

This is my entry for JD'S Great Blog Crossover Challenge II. As some of you already know, I am an Ohio State Buckeye fan who resides in the Heart of Texas among some of the most die hard and passionate fans in this country...Texas Longhorn fans! The College football fan base in general is the most interesting group of sports fans to observe. In my opinion they are more colorful and crazed than any Professional Football, Baseball, Basketball, or Hockey fan base and the Texas Longhorn fan is indeed an interesting breed. The University of Texas is located in the great city of Austin. One of the coolest cities in the United States. Known for it's hospitable atmosphere and great night life. It has been called the "Live Music Capitol of the World" and I've have found that to be true. But on Saturdays in the fall it's all about the Longhorns.
