It’s time for the #cfp championship game between #OhioState and #NotreDame.

This will be the last time you have to suffer thru my #cfb and #CollegeFootball toots, unless you’ve muted those hashtags, this season. You’re welcome.

I don’t have a dog in this fight, but I’m likely to lean toward the Buckeys.

Here we go, @cfb peeps!

(Pic added strictly for my amusement and is not related to this game, because #TexasSucks.)

Everyone is siding with the #BuffaloBills, to the utmost satisfaction of the #BillsMafia.

#DenverBroncos & #BroncosCountry are in the playoffs with a rookie QB who was a journeyman in #CollegeFootball (whole other, related #storytelling).

I like #BoNix, mainly because he (and #JoshAllen) reminds me of #JohnElway, in terms of style of #leadership and play.

Going on the road, to upstate New York in January is tough.

My #punk #religion & #culture makes me root for underdogs.

#GoBroncos!

Have we found the most revolting tradition in sports? On Jan. 3, Minnesota coach P.J. Fleck had five gallons of mayonnaise poured over his head to celebrate his team's victory over Virginia Tech in the Duke's Mayo Bowl game. Did it help that Flavor Flav was doing the pouring? Probably not. Here, @AssociatedPress takes a look at the illustrious history of the wasteful tradition (it's been around for all of four years) and how the staff prepare the gloopy mess. At the second link, from @USAToday's "FTW," see images of Flavor Flav flavoring Fleck.
