Elliott Johnson Has More Speed than Nascar
...but still not as many sponsors. The Atlanta Braves new utility guy/fella/clubhouse presence made it known on the diamond last night by legging out a triple that Elliott Johnson is here to stay. His tread on his tires must have been top notch. Speed kills. Shake N Bake. One lap at a time. One constant left turn on the bases.

Never Before Seen Video of Brady Hoke Riding the Sling Shot
Yup. Brady Hoke has not changed one bit. His cries will only get louder when Notre Dame storms into Ann Arbor in a couple of weeks. Brian Kelly will be laughing hysterically like Janice as Hoke clutches and grabs his fat little bearclaws for life. It's the circle of life folks.

2013 Bowl Projections
The season hasn't even had it's first tailgate let alone kickoff but we are too excited to wait on the end of the year bowl predictions. Plus it's always fun to go back and check to see how wrong we were. If I hit 20% of these predictions it's just pure luck. Thank God this is the final year of the BCS.

The Funniest VINE Video Ever: Midget Stripper Dropped
Make sure you turn on the volume for this one. It's in the upper left corner. I'm crying from laughing. Tears flowing. The internet wins. This is all-time classic material right here. Right up there with the George Brett shit story.
"HE DONE DROP THE HOE! HE DONE DROP THE HOE!" - If that isn't a shirt then I don't know what is.
They call her Butterfingers.

Jadeveon Clowney "The Freak" Is Coming According to ESPN
At this point I'm starting to feel bad for South Carolina defensive end Jadeveon Clowney. Any player that ESPN props up on a pedestal, especially a college football one, eventually gets torn apart. It's going to happen.
Is Clowney great? Yes of course. But he's not nearly the flawless prospect that a lot of people are making him out to be. He's not perfect on or off the field. And unfortunately ESPN and the media will find these things once the season starts. And despite what the media says he is not a lock for #1 pick. He's not a once-in-a-generation type player. Sure he has some great hits and plays but watch the whole game while focusing on him and determine how much of a "can't miss prospect" he really is.
It's only 6 days away. We get to see "The Freak" on ESPN vs North Carolina. The proverbial rise and eventual fall of Clowney will be yet another ESPN production that will be can't miss television. Awesome.

PBS Frontline Show "League Of Denial: The NFL's Concussion Crisis" Looks Promising
Wait a damn second. Are you telling me taking shots to the head can be detrimental to your health? No way! I don't believe it. Next thing PBS is going to tell me is that boxers suffer a good chance of brain damage in the ring. It's impossible.
Anyways the show debuts on PBS on October 8th. Be sure to check it out.

SportsCrack 2013 Preseason All-American Team
Don't worry looking into your Phil Steele magazine or Sporting News or Playboy or whatever magazine you get your preseason preview from. This is the ultimate list. The SportsCrack All-American list is 99.9% accurate. We know our shit. We live college football. We are out doing the tailgates in the spring when those other shit stains are focused on trivial things like family. So without further ado here is the All-American Preseason 2013 team.
QB Johnny Manziel, Texas A&M - He's got a Heisman in his backpocket. He also has some Benjamins. On the field he is the best QB in the nation and the most important player for his team. Off it he is Johnny Fucking Football. The most entertaining college football player since Reggie Bush IMO.
RB Todd Gurley, Georgia - The first half of Gurshall exploded on the scene during his freshman season in Athens. Plus he's a Baltimore Orioles fan so he has impeccable taste. And herpes. A lot of that goes around the Classic City. Or so I've heard.
RB Lache Seastrunk, Baylor - Winner of the dumbest name award this kid can flat out fly. Doesn't get a lot of pub since he plays for Baylor but that will all change this season.
WR Marqise Lee, USC - Just another great USC wide receiver who won't live up to his hype in the NFL. I mean he is really good. He won some awards last year for an awful Trojans team so I'm sure 2013 will be another Groundhog Day for him.
WR Amari Cooper, Alabama - One of the most fluid receivers I can remember, Cooper brings back memories of Jerry Rice. Only a sophomore he should be AJ McCarron's favorite target.
TE Austin Seferian-Jenkins, Washington - The most talented tight end in the nation just needs to stay healthy and keep his nose clean. He has done neither this year. Still the best tight end in the nation.
T Cyrus Kouandjio, Alabama - Alabama grows dominate offensive tackles like they grow meth.
T Taylor Lewan, Michigan - I know this may be flabbergasting to ESPN and all those SEC cuckholders but Lewan pretty much dominated Clowney in the bowl game.
C Gabe Ikard, Oklahoma - A loyal SportsCrack customer since high school Gabe will now be blocking for the Belldozer.
G David Yankey, Stanford - Yankey proves Nerds can play football and dominate at the same time.
G Cyril Richardson, Baylor - Will be opening up gapping holes for Seastrunk all year.
All Purpose De'Anthony Thomas, Oregon - The Black Mamba could win the Heisman if he gets enough touches.
Kick Returner Stefon Diggs, Maryland - Only a sophomore this kid's play is electric.
DE Jadeveon Clowney, South Carolina - Listen Clowney is obviously a very good player. But he's not nearly as great of an all-around player as ESPN and the rest of college football media has made him out to be since the hit he put on Michigan. Still he's better than any other defensive end.
DT Louis Nix, Notre Dame - Irish Chocolate is an immovable object that destroys everything in sight. Go back and watch the BCS Championship and specifically watch his play. Nix more than held his own and often dominated against what is probably college footballs greatest offensive line collectively in Alabama.
DT Will Sutton, Arizona State - Dominating force inside who had double digit sacks last year.
DE Stephon Tuitt, Notre Dame - Up to 325 lbs Tuitt was dominating last year until a hernia curtailed his production. Still had double digit sacks and once again will be a force for an impressive Notre Dame defense.
OLB Anthony Barr, UCLA - Just ask Matt Barkley how good Barr is at linebacker.
ILB C.J. Mosley, Alabama - Actually kinda shocking he came back for his senior season in Tuscaloosa. Must have not wanted to take a pay cut for the NFL. Who can blame him? He's the MVP of a stifling Bama defense.
OLB Kyle Van Noy, BYU - This Stormin'Mormon is a heat-seeking missile who's about as sounds of a tackler as you will find in the college game.
CB Bradley Roby, Ohio State - This Buckeye was one of the few bright spots on a suspect D last season. He also returns punts at an All-American rate.
CB Ifo Ekpre-Olomu, Oregon - My apologies go to Lache Seastrunk. The Oregon Duck who forced 6 fumbles last season clearly has the most fucked up name.
S Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, Alabama - His parents were clearly high when he was delivered. Who the fuck names their kid Ha Ha? I guess LOL seemed inappropriate.
S Ed Reynolds, Stanford - Another Stanford nerd makes the team. If you haven't noticed they have been playing pretty good football the past 4 seasons.
K Cairo Santos, Tulane - He was perfect (21 of 21) in field goals with a long of 57 yards. Plus he doesn't rape chicks like the Michigan kicker. Two pluses in my book and in life.
P Kyle Christy, Florida - A punter with the last name of Christy huh? I guess Fairy would have looked too gay for the Gaytors.

FOXSports1 Reporting Notre Dame is in Trouble
It's official. Notre Dame is fucked. Might as well cancel the season according to this report from FoxSports1 College Football Kickoff Show. They lost head coach Brian Kelly along with WR Michael Floyd and safety Harrison Smith this offseason. But all is not lost since LB Manti Te'o is still playing for the Blue and Gold.
Great job by FoxSports1 breaking this story. I'll be sure to tune in for more breaking news.

Tennessee and Adidas Reveal New Vols TECHFIT Uniform
This will be the first and probably only time you ever hear these words come out of my mouth when it comes to a Tennessee Volunteers football uniform: I like them. In fact I think these should become their permanent uniforms. The black/charcoal color looks really good. I know the Volunteers faithful are religious demigods about their helmet but if they could have made those matte black with the orange T popping on them then it would have been absolute perfection.

Brian Kelly Leads Running Back Cam McDaniel Into a Hilarious Fail Moment
Poor Cam McDaniel. The third string tailback had to be the first to run into the backwards gauntlet sled after head coach Brian Kelly yelled "NO, IT'S NOT BACKWARDS!"
You can see Kelly trying to withhold his laughter after he realizes he fucked up. Luckily McDaniel wasn't hurt. His ego on the other hand?

Atlanta Braves Bat Boy Handles The Real Thing
A live bat landed in the infield last night during yet another Phillies ass whooping by the hands of the Atlanta Braves at the Ted. Infielder Paul Janish scooped up Bruce Wayne fearlessly and delivered him to the bat boy. The bat boy then proceeds to take the bat into the Braves dugout and like a breaking curveball Dan Uggla totally flinches as usual.

Michigan State Pulls The Fake Mannequin On It's Players and Coaches, Hilarity Ensues
I guess the Spartans forgot that whole "coach Mark Dantonio had a heart attack" issue from a couple of seasons ago because holy shit they pulled a fast one on him. Luckily for Michigan State he took it like a good sport and didn't drop dead on the spot. That would have been awkward.
