Hall of Famer Warren Moon couldn’t have said it any better, when he was asked him impressions of wide receiver Justin Blackmon. “He’s like Dez Bryant with all of his brain cells.”

Each summer, our wonderful friends at Irrelevant Week in Orange County celebrate the last pick of the NFL Draft. The lucky soul is feted like a king for almost a week with a trip to Disneyland, a golf tournament, several parties and dinners in Newport Beach and a banquet, where the individual is heaped with more honors and receives the cherished Lowsman Trophy, which mimics the Heisman Trophy, but shows a player fumbling the ball.
Despite our Raider bias, we’re happy to note that kicker Ryan Succop, the 2009 Mr. Irrelevant, scored a major deal recently with the Chiefs, inking a $14-million, 5-year extension. Though he’s no Sebastian Janikowski, we’d venture out on a limb to say that that’s a record transaction for a Mr. Irrelevant.
Irrelevant Week was founded by Paul Salata. It all began in 1976, when Dayton wide receiver Kelvin Kirk was the final pick of the draft. Kirk was celebrated and cheered during festivities in Newport Beach and a tradition was born.
Last year, Rice defensive end Cheta Ozougwu was Mr. Irrelevant.

Love that headline and wish we’d come up with it, but the Wall Street Journal gets credit. The publication also swears that LSU fans are in a conference of their own when it comes to drinking.

It’s an idea that is picking up steam. Many college football pundits are starting to voice their beliefs that if LSU manages to lose to Alabama in a close contest, the Tigers, at worst, should be voted co-champs. Blowout wins by Oregon and West Virginia, 2 teams Les Miles and his boys handled with ease, have strengthened that theory. Actually, teams the Tigers defeated in the regular season are 5-1 in bowl games, punk-ass Georgia choking against Michigan State in overtime being the only blemish.

Punch in the touchdown from the 1 and Oklahoma State covers the spread. Instead, Gundy boots a punk-ass field goal.

We like Oklahoma State’s speed to counter Andrew Luck and Stanford.
