2010 NCAA Football Predictions

Preseason predictions are so much fun!  Everyone is estimating and guessing who they think will have the endurance and passion to make it to the National Championship.  Here are a couple stories I've enjoyed while basking in all the preseason fiestities:

• The 10th Annual Herbies - Kirk Herbstreit's predictions of this year's best players
• Conference Champion and BCS Champ Predictions from ESPN's best
• All the Bowl Predictions! - See if your team is predicted to go bowling (SCAR v. Penn State in the Outback Bowl!)
• ESPN Bloggers put out the BEST predictions I've seen so far!

Year 6 at SCAR for the Ol' Ball Coach

Repeat?

Heisman?

Undefeated?

Heisman?

Heisman? Probably not.

Clemson should just go ahead and come up with their lame excuses for this year.

American Gangster

My friend Tommy had been hyping up this movie for so long, and finally I had the time to watch it. It's a shame I didn't like it all that much.

There is nothing wrong with this film in particular. I liked the acting, the shots were good, it was interesting, and the music was fine. I am just sick of these mafia movies. I think The Departed capped it off for me. There aren't many other movies like that one, and after so many years of those kind of movies, the pool of creativity in that genre is depleted.

I am not a big fan of Denzel Washington. I don't think he is a bad actor at all, but I just do not enjoy his dramatic touch. There are only 2 of his movies that I really enjoyed. I liked John Q, but this movie is a C at best, and I really liked Glory -- that old movie on the Civil War. Denzel just doesn't appeal to me.
But I do recommend watching American Gangster at least once. I teetered on deciding whether or not watching this movie was a waste of my time or not. I decided that is was worth my time, barely.
