Florida President Changes Mind On Playoff; Tiny Laser Sighting Point Abruptly Vanishes From His Forehead
By Jay Busbee | June 2, 2007
Well, that didn’t take long.
Just a few days after announcing his plans to try to push through a college football playoff proposal at this week’s SEC spring meetings (a move which earned begrudging credit from us), University of Florida president Bernie Machen backpedaled fast enough to leave skidmarks in the sugary sands of Sandestin, Florida:
“What we learned today from my colleagues is that we see the world pretty much the same way,” Machen said Friday on the final day of the annual meeting. “We see the problems in the current system. They are persuaded, and I am now persuaded, that the best way to proceed is to try to work within the BCS structure, to make some changes to make it better. That seems to me to be a very good way to go.”
In completely unrelated news, Machen’s entire family, missing since three minutes after Machen made his initial announcement, was found alive and well.

Is that the Spenser for hire dude or the early Law & Order dude?

That’s Chris Noth from Law & Order, though I don’t know where this pic is from. Trust me, when you enter “held at gunpoint” into Google image search, make damn sure you have SafeSearch on.
