Autumn is my favorite season of the year for a variety of reasons.
While the summer's oppressive heat has not yet yielded to milder, brooding, crisp autumnal evenings by the crackling fireplace where I can enjoy Hugh Hewitt's "Painting the Map Red" or Frank Gaffney's "War Footing," the USA Today/ESPN Coaches Poll has just released its pre-season college football rankings which signifies that the calendar is finally making its push into the cooler, more colorful months of the year.
Hugh Hewitt must be thrilled with Ohio State's # 1 ranking, and Mary Katharine Ham's Georgia Bulldogs are sitting pretty at # 14 despite not yet deciding on a starting quarterback.
Certainly, many moonbat left-wingers accuse Hugh and Mary Katharine of 'dealing with the devil,' but, if their teams are ranked so highly to begin the season, is it possible such pre-season rankings might be attributed to their alleged personal deals with the devil ?
And if so, what is the devil demanding in return for the success of their football teams---painting the map BLUE, perhaps, in November ?
One has to conclude that Oklahoma would not have been ranked as high as # 5 had voters been able to calculate that OU's starting QB would be dismissed from the team a few days ago.
Pre-season rankings from the Associated Press, and one hot minute, soon to come....
