Jon Wilner=Idiot, Why I could be a full time CFB Writer

Ever since picking up my part time writing position for bucknuts.com, I have constantly wondered if I had the skill, knowledge, and ability to be a full time college football writer. After reading Jon Wilner’s top 25, its pretty apparent it doesn’t take much and that this career path is indeed very possible.

This morning I looked at the AP top 25 rankings and noticed that a) 1 idiot voted for Arizona State as the best team in the country and b) an even bigger idiot voted LSU (who just lost) as the number one team in the country. This evening I found out the identity of the bigger idiot. No other than San Jose Mercury News’ (my local paper) writer Jon Wilner

Check out his blog where he discusses his rankings and the rationale behind them. Here are some of the most glaring anomalies from this college football “expert”.

1) LSU is number one…. Seriously?

2) South Carolina somehow jumps the likes of Ohio State and Oklahoma for #2

3) Wilner’s hard on for the SEC is blatant with a whopping 5 SEC teams ranked in the top 12

4) 2 loss Florida and Auburn teams are ahead of USC

5) Ohio State destroys Kent State and is the clear number one, yet Wilner drops them from number 6 to number 7. Somehow LSU stays at the top?

6) Virginia Tech omitted from the top 15 despite their only loss being to the his heartthrob LSU.

7) Missouri in the top ten?

8 ) Wilner gets an AP vote and a paycheck

You probably haven’t heard of the Showtime series Dexter.

With a lot of positive buzz, Showtime has launched an ambitious online advertising campaign that is sure to reach millions of people who are unfamiliar with Dexter.

By visiting Showtime’s Dexter website, you can quickly create a 1 minute plus video that is customized to scare the shit out of your friends.

China’s Richest Person is…. Young, Female, and a Buckeye

I know I probably overkill my love for my alma mater, Ohio State, but thought this was a Benkoo.com worthy mention.

This Cnn article points out that Yang Huiyan is China’s richest person with a net worth of 16.2 billion dollars. You usually don’t find that many woman on forbes.com wealthiest lists but what was most surprising was that Yang Huiyan is only a year older than me (25+1=26). Yang Huiyan graduated Ohio State in 2003 thus she witnessed the miraculous National Championship season of 2002 which likely served as the catalyst for her career in Real Estate Development. The news isnt all good though, as this 16.2 billion dollar potential Buckeye Sugar Mama is officially off the market as of last year. Look below as she sports a Scarlet gown for her wedding below. You can just tell she bleeds the scarlet and grey.
