The BCS Is All Messed Up, Doo-Dah, Doo-Dah

My impression of what a conversation between me and a purist college football junkie would sound like:

Purist College Football Junkie: "Man, the BCS is complete bulls*#t! How can it be that USC won their conference and was in first place in both polls, but they're going to the Rose Bowl and Oklahoma, who didn't even win their own conference championship, is playing in the Sugar Bowl?"

Me: "Uh huh."

PCFJ: "I mean, the whole point of the BCS was to make sure that the two best teams play for the national championship! They need to toss it out and start over!"

M: "Mmm hmm."

PCFJ: "Come on! This is football! Football is a game where real men go out and the toughest team wins! It's just wrong to have the national championship decided by a bunch of nerds and their damned computers."

M: "Yeah, uh, sure. Hungry?"

PCFJ: "Hungry?!?!? How the hell can you think about food when we're living through the worst travesty in the history of college football? This thing is gonna live in infamy, like Pearl Harbor and s*#t."

M: "Because I was about to order pizza, and it's cheaper per person if you order a big one, you know."

PCFJ: "Man, screw you! Pete Carroll's kids go out there and leave their hearts on the damn field only to get screwed out of a chance to play for the national title by some buncha god-damned computer geeks who think they know about football because they jerk off to the box score in their parents' god-damned basements and all you can talk about is a god-damned pizza? F&$ck off!"

M: "Ummm, I think this place does halves, you can get whatever toppings you want on your half..."

PCFJ: [Storms off.]

M: "Guess he didn't want pizza."
