BCS-bound Cardinal (just in case it's the Fiesta Bowl)

Oh, come on; I had
to say it: Boom'er Sooner?
I hardly know 'er.
--Gary Tyrrell

Sins of the father
Somehow avoid son

If I didn't ask, do I get?

Take my dad to the cooler
I know nuthink, Herr Colonel!

Upon hearing that
Stanford would not get Rose Bowl

Ducks sucked when I was a youth
Welcome to my world.

Quack attack. We're stunned.
Too stunned to create haiku.

It's Talk Like a Pirate Day

"Is that us?" I asked
Regarding black-clad Stanford.
I meant "Is that we?"

Call Stanford the Mighty Red
Call them Deacon blue.
