A Perfectly Cromulent Blog

"You've got to hold the football like you would hold your lover. Gently, yet firmly. You wanna be both nurturing and clinging at the same time. Oh, yes."

I'm not talking much about the fact that the Longhorns are playing for the national title against USC this week in the Rose Bowl. I'm keenly aware of how hard it's going to be to beat Reggie Bush and Matt Leinart in what is essentially a home game for Southern Cal, but more importantly, I don't believe any Trojan fans read APCB, so what would be the point?

I will submit two data points, however:

1. I reenacted the Rose Bowl on NCAA Football 2006 (thanks Father-In-Law) for the Xbox this week, and the Longhorns - led by a phenom freshman halfback with the same last name as the writer of this blog - beat USC soundly, 34-17.

2. Then there's the issue of the recent injury to Texas QB Vince Young:

Are you fucking kidding me? How is going to throw with his hand like that?

Then again, it can't really hurt his form.
