SPORTS SHORTS TAKE 9....DID BCS get it RIGHT?...STEELERS dump BENGALS in ALLEGHENY...REYES GETS 9 DIGITS from FISH...URBAN BOWL n more

The BLUEDUDE SPORTSTALK Sports Shorts TAKE 9 is all over the place with numerous places to start. Along with the NFL this was a HUGE DAY in SPORTS with GOLF, NCAA BOWL BIDS, the MLB Winter Meetings 2011 underway, and of course COLLEGE BASKETBALL action.

First thing is First...DID THE BCS get it RIGHT? LSU and ALABAMA will play for the BCS NATIONAL Championship in NEW ORLEANS but the OKLAHOMA STATE COWBOYS though they had a CHANCE and missed passing 'BAMA by .0033 % points to get that shot.

The BCS got this one RIGHT and I know the COWBOYS want a shot a LSU but that's what their mouth says. The BCS is set up in most cases for the BEST 2 TEAMS at the END of the YEAR to play for the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP and LSU and ALABAMA are the BEST TWO Teams.

Speaking of BOWL BIDS the NCAA is really ON ONE and when they want to STIR the POT UP they do it almost instantaneously. The BLUEDUDE has a QUESTION FOR YOU?......Would you want to go to a COLLEGE FOOTBALL BOWL GAme and see Two 6-6 TEAMS...you would probably say NOT in this LIFETIME or the NEXT.

Well LOOK who is going to play in the TAXSLAYER.com GATOR BOWL in JACKSONVILLE on December 30th 2011....the 6-6 OHIO STATE BUCKEYES and the 6-6 FLORIDA GATORS. Why is this so intriguing...it's FORMER FLORIDA Coach Urban MEYER'S New Team the BUCKEYES vs his OLD TEAM the GATORS and they make the BUCKEYE Fans go to GATOR Territory for the GAME. NCAA you need to be SLAPPED right in your MUGS for that one.

The Pittsburgh STEELERS sent a MESSAGE to UP and COMING Cincinnati BENGALS....NOW it's NOT your TIME...this is GROWN FOLKS BUSINESS. Nothing against the BENGALS, Head Coach Marvin LEWIS, Owner Mike BROWN, and their FANS....but you are not ready for WINNING TIME at least not on the STEELERS Watch.

Now the BENGALS fall 2 full games behind the RAVENS and the STEELERS and they have the TEXANS in the JUNGLE and the RAVENS to follow suit. So if WINNING TIME is in the CARDS....do the STEELERS a FAVOR...Beat the TEXANS and RAVENS we will send you 50 YARD LINE SEATS for the AFC DIVISIONAL Round at the BIG KETCHUP Bottle.

Is it PANIC TIME in the WINDY CITY because the MONSTERS of the MIDWAY are all of a SUDDEN locked into a 3-WAY TIE with DIVISIONAL Foe the LIONS and the FALCONS for the 2 NFC WILD CARDS.

The BEARS might need to look for a QB that is out there that may be able to help them...like recently waived PURPLE PEOPLE QB Donovan McNABB. Now would the BEARS go that ROUTE? QB HEINE is not looking good and now they lose RB Matt FORTE for at least 4 WEEKS.....the BEARS travel to MILE HIGH INVESCO next Sunday and all TIM TEBOW does is put up W's.

The Major League BASEBALL Winter MEETINGS have started and the FIGHTING FISH are setting the TEMPO. They are taking no PRISONERS with a NEW STADIUM, all kinds of NEW REVENUE coming in, and SPONSORS coming out the WOOD WORK to JUMP on the FISH BANDWAGON.

Speaking of BANDWAGON who jumped on the FISH BANDWAGON TODAY....NL BATTING CHAMP and for AMAZINS' SS Jose REYES for a tune of 9 DIGITS in 305. A reported 6 years $106 MILLION DUCKETTS and the FISH said OH!....WE ARE NOT DONE. If the CARDINALS don't sign Albert PUJOLS it is rumored that ALBERT will be taking his talents to SOUTH BEACH.

As for TALENTS in SOUTH BEACH that makes KING JAMES, BOSH SPICE, Jose REYES, Reggie BUSH, Brandon MARSHALL, and now maybe Albert PUJOLS.....305 already had such talents like CARNIVAL CRUISE LINE and CEO Mickey ARISON (the OWNER of the MIAMI HEAT), Def Jam SOUTH and DJ KHALED HOME, RICK ROSS, some of the FINEST WOMEN in the WORLD and BEACHES, and of COURSE a SPORTS BLOGGER giving them PROPS...the BLUEDUDE and BLUEDUDE SPORTSTALK.

TIGER WOODS won his 1st TOURNEY in a little over 2 years and now the GOLF WORLD braces for TIGER MANIA 2.0 all the BLUEDUDE is doing is watching MY SQUEEZE (my WIFE) and some all of a SUDDEN TRIPS TO SIN CITY with her so called GIRLFRIENDS....NOT HAPPENING over here TIGER plus my SQUEEZE is on the DARK SIDE no SNOW STORMS over here.

Remember UNLV beat the TAR HEELS last week when they were #1 will now the RUNNIN' REBELS get the FAVOR RETURNED as the Wichita STATE SHOCKERS shock UNLV but not themselves by serving the REBELS a 19 PIECE, side of FIRES , 1 Corn on the COB, and a SHOCKER SIZE of KANSAS WHEAT CEREAL in a BOX called SHOCKERS in MARCH MADNESS.

The POINT the BLUEDUDE is trying to make here is that every NCAA BASKETBALL TEAM that has big ASPIRATIONS of getting to the BIG DANCE in MARCH.....be playing your best HOOP around mid-to-late FEBRUARY into MARCH and see where your teams fall. Early DECEMBER College Basketball means a lot if your on the BUBBLE come MARCH.
