I've Got The Lighter

Virginia Tech Hokies football, basketball, athletics blog and forum featuring: unique columns, breaking news, film studies, in-depth analysis, recruiting, videos and jokes.

Those movies or TV shows when it's about to hit the fan, but a character calls a timeout to puff one last cigarette. It's a stick of a last meal conveniently kept in a pocket. Put 'em down, but gently. Back to the action.

(Don't watch if you don't want a Breaking Bad spoiler.)

The BCS is on the floor sucking in its last gasps, but it's got something to show you. It's pointing. Turn your head. Look over there, away from it. ESPN is projecting a FSU-Auburn national championship game, Stanford-Michigan State Rose Bowl, Clemson-Ohio State Orange Bowl, Alabama-Oklahoma Sugar Bowl, and Baylor-UCF Fiesta Bowl.

I'm happy to watch the BCS die, but I'll light a Camel, stick it in its mouth, and let this horrible system slump away feeling fulfilled. Thanks for these games. Truly. But now go away forever.
