Today's (Tuesday US) edition of the Los Angeles Times has an expose of
the flawed system that is sending two teams considered to be the second
and third best among US college teams (one the second-place finisher in
its own conference) to the "championship" game, while the team widely
considered the best in the nation is relegated to another game.  

DJMLer Richard Broadie, the author of this piece, upholds the honor of
jazzers, musicians in general, and connoisseurs of good (West Coast)
college football by expounding on the old principle that garbage in can
only lead to garbage out.  The piece is at http://tinyurl.com/yii9.
Registration is required to read it, but is free.

As Harry Reser's Eskimos put it on wax, "You Gotta be a Football Hero to
Get Along with the Beautiful Girls."  (Why do I keep think of Dick
Powell?)
