San Francisco 49ers Send the New Orleans Saints CRYING HOME – NEW YORK GIANTS Coming to San Francisco for NFC Championship Game!

Spanish philosopher George Santayana once accurately observed that…

“To knock a thing down, especially if it is cocked at an arrogant angle, is a deep delight of the blood.”

…and it was a “deep delight of the blood” for the San Francisco 49ers to beat head coach Sean Payton and the New Orleans Saints on Saturday because that Saints team was certainly “cocked at an arrogant angle” and from our own personal observation after the 49ers – Saints game the New Orleans players and coaches were stunned that they lost the Niners.

Too bad about that boys.

This is for you Sean Payton and the New Orleans Saints football team:

Oh those Saints, Go Crying Home, Oh Those Saints Go Crying Home

Crying Home

Oh those Saints, Go Crying Home, Oh Those Saints Go Crying Home

Crying Home

Those Saints won’t be in that number….NFC Championship Game….Because Those Saints Are Now At Home….and Crying!

Hey, it doesn’t rhyme, but it is Damn Fun to Sing!

After San Francisco beat New Orleans on Saturday as we were waiting for our vans to pick us up to go back to the hotel we were drinking cold beverages outside of Candlestick Park and a Coaches Hot Seat Member says:

“You don’t think the Giants can beat the Packers do you?”

CHS Member #2: “Wouldn’t that be something? The San Francisco 49ers hosting the NFC Championship Game!”

CHS Member #1: “Hey, it’s possible. Just in case the Giants beat Green Bay I am going to see if the hotel has rooms for us this week because we have to stay in town if the Niners are hosting the NFC Championship Game.”

CHS Member #2: Put me down for that, not that the wife is going to be happy about me staying in San Francisco for a week without her and the kids.”

CHS Member #3: “Hey, tell her you will be working at least what…2 or 3 hours a day?”

CHS Member #2: “Yes, at least 2 hours every day but we probably shouldn’t count those long lunches at the Tadich Grill unless we are moonlighting as writers for some magazine that covers liquors and alcohols from around the world!”

CHS Member #1: “Now there’s an idea. A magazine that covers liquors and alcohols from around the world which would right off the bat save us lots of money just from being able to write-off all of this liquor and alcohol we drink!”

Well, we all watched the Giants – Packers game from a good friend’s house on Sunday in San Francisco and believe it or not the San Francisco 49ers led by Jimmy Harbaugh will be hosting the….

NFC Championship Game

…next Sunday at 3:30 PM Pacific Time against the NEW YORK GIANTS and there are a decent amount of us here at Coaches Hot Seat that will be staying in the City by the Bay this week where will be working hard while stopping in at our old tavern, bar and restaurant haunts and one Coaches Hot Seat member even broached the still unthinkable….

The San Francisco 49ers playing in Super Bowl XLVI in Indianapolis on February 5, 2012!

Un-Freaking Believable!

No, don’t talk about that…..because Eli Manning and the NEW YORK GIANTS are coming to town and that reality demands that the San Francisco 49ers AND their fans focus on one thing and one thing ONLY….

Beating the NEW YORK GIANTS!

One great thing about the NFC Championship Game….this is going to be a Good Ole’ Fashioned…

FOOTBALL GAME

…and what great fun it will be to see Candlestick Park rocking….AGAIN!

 

The Sorry BCS Bastards Tell Lots of LIES But There Is One Very Big LIE That They Tell Over and Over Again and the College Presidents Are Too Stupid To Know the TRUTH

Drew Sharp of the Detroit Free Press pretty much said everything that needs to be said about the Bogus and Un-American BCS over the weekend…

BCS system’s motto: It’s broke, but don’t fix it, Detroit Free-Press

“Here we go again.

The nonsense that a viable playoff format could coexist with the current Bowl Championship Series apparatus is just that … nonsense. A playoff only works if the BCS bowls are killed off.

That’s not happening.

The keepers of the BCS’s withering flame hinted last week that changes are inevitable in the new contract starting with the 2014 regular season, which spawned visions of a more rational national championship process, perhaps a compromise reminiscent of the plus-one algorithm that the Southeastern Conference proposed four years ago.

But the four BCS bowls won’t agree to any plan that negates their events as tourism vehicles. The bowls never cared about crowning a national champion, legitimate or otherwise.

They were created as an extension of the local chamber of commerce, becoming nonprofit entities (wink, wink) in serving the public good by keeping area hotels, restaurants and strip clubs filled with drunken revelers draped in eye-revolting team colors.

The game always was secondary to the partying — and the purchasing of $20 commemorative T-shirts that took $2 to construct in a sweatshop. But you’re not going to get 12,000 fans spending a week in New Orleans for a national semifinal Sugar Bowl if there’s a chance their team could wind up in Pasadena, Calif., the following week for a shot at the national championship.”

Two Things:

Oh, the above is So Damn TRUE Drew Sharp

AND

What College Writing classes did we miss because we sure the Hell can’t write like Drew Sharp?

The reason the Bogus and Un-American BCS is so Bogus and so Damn Un-American is because the Bogus BCS was dreamed up to save these Meaningless Exhibition Games and once the Bogus BCS was dreamed up the LIES, LIES, LIES started to pour out of the mouths of what are in our opinion some of the Very Sorriest People in America today….

The Bowl Executives

….who were pretty much indicted for what all these Meaningless Bowl Games are really all about by Sugar Bowl Lead Bowl Rep Hack Paul Hoolahan who we consider to be a Clean and Present Danger to Intercollegiate Athletics and a Leech on the game of College Football when Dennis Dodd interviewed Hoolahan after the Bogus BCS Title Game:

Plenty of talk around postseason changes, but will there be action?, CBS Sports

Get a eyeful of what a Complete Load of Horsecrap that Paul Hoolahan is…

“Hoolahan is among those trying to protect their franchise as the BCS seemingly heads into a new era. Unlike the other three major bowls, the Sugar is tied to a mid-sized city without heaving-hitting Fortune 500 corporate support.

Nothing much came of Tuesday, but it is clear Hoolahan are his peers are fortifying themselves. The 61-year-old former North Carolina offensive tackle spoke openly of a $40 million “war chest” that could conceivably be used to buy into the BCS going forward. There is speculation that spots in a Plus One may be open for bid. That’s not unlike the current arrangement, except that the BCS has never varied from the four power bowls – Fiesta, Rose, Sugar and Orange.

“If it comes down to the Plus-One model is something that everybody believes is the way to move, we’re going to be in the flow no matter what,” Hoolahan said.”

A not-for-profit organization (the Sugar Bowl) has a $40 million dollar “war chest” so it can fend off Jerry Jones and his possible play for a bigger spot in the college football postseason?

Does that make any sense at all?

Not if you give a Damn about Intercollegiate Athletics but then we have a lot of College and University Presidents that don’t give a Damn about Intercollegiate Athletics and are more than happy to bid out their school’s student-athletes to the highest bidder from the Chamber of Commerce and Paul Hoolahan crowd, but now we shouldn’t blame the college and university presidents just because they are too stupid to know Up from Down forget about what the bowl games are really about because in reality the bowl games have nothing to do with benefiting Intercollegiate Athletics or OUR country’s student-athletes because the bowl games are about benefiting…

Sorry Pieces of Crapola like Paul Hoolahan and of course the businesses of New Orleans and if that costs Intercollegiate Athletics Hundreds of Millions of Dollars each year and the College and University Presidents are willing to swallow the LIES they are told then that only confirms the FACT that the very last place one should go looking for reality is on a college campus in the United States of America.

One of the Biggest LIES told by the Sorry BCS Bastards is that somehow that the teams and players in Division I-A (FBS) football are different from EVERY other football player in America and that using the same Postseason Playoff Tournament Format of EVERY other league of football in America would somehow damage the I-A players which of course wouldn’t damage the players in EVERY other league of football in America.

NCAA president Mark Emmert was making this nonsensical argument that I-A football players couldn’t play the amount of games that I-AA (FCS) and Division II and III teams and players play right now which is beyond absurd on its face and really just a Complete LIE since North Dakota State won the NCAA I-AA (FCS) National Championship last week and their record on the season for both the Regular and Postseason was….

15 – 1

So, North Dakota State can play 16 Games a year which includes both the Regular Season and a Postseason Tournament, but somehow I-A (FBC) players can’t play 16 Games as well?

Is Mark Emmert really going to make such a stupid argument or does Mark Emmert know that he is LYING or at best misleading people with his comments?

Mark Emmert is not stupid so it is our opinion he is intentionally misleading people which is of course the Very Big LIE that comes out of the mouths of the Very Sorry BCS Bastards that somehow I-A (FBS) players are somehow different than EVERY other level of football in America which of course is nothing but a BALD-FACED LIE.

Let’s go to the FACTS:

Grayson High School in the state of Georgia just won the 2011 Georgia 5A State Championship by playing 16 Games

North Dakota State just won the 2011 – 2012 I-AA NCAA National Championship playing 16 Games

The San Francisco 49ers would play if they won the NFC Championship and Super Bowl 19 Games

IF I-A (FBS) football used the EXACT SAME Postseason Tournament system that is used on EVERY LEVEL of football which ideally in I-A football would be a 16-Team Postseason Tournament the two teams in the NCAA National Championship Game would have played 17 Games

High School State Champions – 16 to 17 Games
NCAA I-AA (FCS) Champions – 16 Games
NFL Champions – 19 Games
NCAA I-A (FBS) Champions – 17 Games if Major College Football was run by REAL Men instead of Candy Asses and the Chamber of Commerce gang that really only care about in the words of that Sorry Piece of Crapola, Rick Catlett, head of the Gator Bowl Association (As reported in 2010 by Greg Wallace of the Independent Mail, Driven by money, college football bowl system rewards mediocrity):

““Our team selection is based on three criteria,” Catlett, the head of the Gator Bowl Association, told Jacksonville reporters this week. “Heads in beds, fannies in seats and big TV ratings.”

That isn’t just a Gator Bowl ethos; it exemplifies the entire bowl selection process. Without a playoff system, bowls are all about themselves and making cash.

“We’re not about college football,” Catlett said. “We’re about economic impact.””

Yes, Rick Cattlett, you are in OUR opinion a LEECH on the game of college football and if you and your bowl executive buddies were removed from the game of Major College Football that would a GREAT day in the United States of America because then the Sorry Pieces of Crapola that have turned the College Football Postseason into just one long advertisement for everything that the Fortune 500 Companies want to sell to the American People (think Capital One Bowl Week) with OUR student-athletes being sold off by the college and university presidents like slaves to the highest bidders with the ultimate goal being of course…

“Heads in beds, fannies in seats and big TV ratings.”

Yes, be proud college and university presidents as you defend the Bogus and Very Un-American BCS but sure the Hell don’t try to claim that you give Two-Rips about the student-athletes on YOUR campus that are playing college football because anyone supporting the corrupt college football postseason makes a Very Clear and Loud Statement that he or she cares a lot more about getting his or her ass kissed by bowl executives than what is best of Intercollegiate Athletics or even Higher Education in America.

Yes, we could go on but why bother because we wouldn’t want to hold Nebraska Chancellor Harvey Perlman up from his next ass kissing event which no doubt Harvey Perlman will be at with bells on because Harvey has some serious business to attend to like figuring out more ways to sell out OUR student-athletes to the highest-bidder in Corporate America and the Chamber of Commerce crowd which of course will be wrapped around a meeting a 5-star resort this spring where the Very Sorry Pieces of Crapola behind the Bogus and Un-American BCS will get together to “discuss things” which in our opinion is easily the Biggest Collection of Candy Asses meeting in one spot since the California Legislature last met which was last week by the way!

 

ESPN’s Chris Fowler in Melbourne, Australia for the Australian Open Tennis Tournament with…..who?

As we were writing this blog on Sunday night we couldn’t help but notice when flipping around the dial that ESPN’s Chris Fowler was calling the Australian Open Tennis Tournament and his color analyst partner was….

Chris Evert?

Damn, Fowler, that is quite a step-up from Herbstreit, Corso and Howard!

Fowler seems to actually know a thing or two about tennis which raises the question of whether we should invite Fowler to the Coaches Hot Seat Summer Tennis Championship Tournament and Beer Tasting Blowout held high in the Rocky Mountains each year?

Surprisingly, Tennis and Beer go together very well and in the pre-tournament matches the….

Must drink a beer either during and/or after each game (and before the next game starts) 1-set matches are very entertaining to play in and especially to watch!

Have a good time down there in Melbourne, Australia Fowler and rest assured that the Very Sorry Pieces of Crapola behind the Bogus and Un-American BCS will not be able to get their hands on the Australian Open which means the Australian Open will be won by a player who won the Championship by his or her play on the Tennis Court….not with other tennis players voting on who is the best player, clueless Idiots voting on who is the best player and computer geeks in their basements chugging Mountain Dews, eating Ho-Ho’s and spitting out bogus algorithms that will tell everyone who is the best player, but rather the Australian Open will be…

WON on the Field of Play!

The Australian…and American Way except for the Bogus and Un-American BCS!
