The Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University college football program has released starting quarterback Marcus Vick after his actions during the Gator Bowl. Vick, a redshirt junior from Newport News, stomped on a prone Louisville DE, Elvis Dumervil during the Gator Bowl's second quarter.

It's about bloody time someone put their foot down (no pun intended) on the misdeeds of Vick the Younger. Marcus Vick has been a blot on the team's reputation since his first days in Blacksburg. A press conference by school officials has been called for this coming Saturday. I will, sooner or later, provide commentary.

Good riddance.

It appears that the University of Southern California has lost the national championship of college football to the University of Texas. I note without sorrow the defeat of the USC Trojans.

I would of course have preferred that a team from the ACC or the SEC be the national champion, but that will come perhaps next year. (Y'hear me, Spurrier? The future is now, as they say on Imus in the Morning, with original credit to Washington Redskins coach George F. Allen, Senior.)

Congratulations to the Longhorns, and take that, Matt Leinart & Reggie Bush. TexasBestGrok is my choice for associated coverage.
