And the team we lost to, Iowa beat the other USC who is in the SEC. I know most of us never even pretended to think the big ten was the best conference, but as I said before, you can only bitch if you haven’t lost, we lost so I stopped complaining. UF is in the title game and this albeit talented goon can’t shut his mouth. I’m glad our players keep their mouths mostly shut. Rabble Rabble

I don’t even know what that means. But it sounds really smrt

I would have remembered a blog editor.

Don’t know where the heck it came from. I had never heard of it before until then…or maybe I had stored it away in my memory banks never to be heard from again until someone brought it up.

nerdy….?

I know I’ve used the term a couple times, and I’m not going to go back and find what I said, but I don’t think I was using it wrong (though perhaps I was). I’m not a psych major, so maybe I wasn’t using it completely correctly, but I’m pretty sure Cognitive Dissonance isn’t where “what was believed to be true turns out to be fraudulent” but is instead where you believe something is true, even though you know (or really deep down believe) it to be false, leading to the “dissonance”.

According to wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_dissonance

Cognitive dissonance is an uncomfortable feeling caused by holding two contradictory ideas simultaneously

A quick example I’ve heard used would be someone who rationalizes smoking as being healthy because it causes weight loss, even though there is abundant evidence that it causes lung cancer, heart problems, and other serious health problems.

Just because a microphone is in front of your face doesn’t mean you have any clue what the hell you are talking about.

Classic, classic quote.

has distiguished itself in BCS games though. Wouldn’t the USC players have the exat same beef, Florida only beat Oklahoma. That’s sloppy seconds to Boise State and West Virginia, among others.

I mean seriously, Oklahoma.
