SuperRookie was the winner of our first Commenter Of the Week award. Let his words gently caress you:

I have a lot of pressure on my shoulders right now. I feel like  a highly touted first-round draft pick. If I screw this up, I might go down as the only COW to ever grace RandBall. That’s a lot of pressure.

Unlike Len Bias and Dimitrius Underwood, I actually decided to show up and play in this little game. I don’t plan on being the next Donyell Marshall or Rasho Nesterovic. Come to think of it, they never wanted to be failures, either, so I guess I’m pretty much screwed.

I won’t bore you with my thoughts on last night’s game. But I will bore you with the following:

1) I would like to point out the Gophers football team signed six recruits from junior college but failed to sign a kicker. Does the coaching staff realize that this team needs a new kicker? Do they remember the multiple times this season that an extra point was missed? Seriously.

2) On an unrelated topic, as a pretend bike racer, I would like to give an update on Adam Bergman. He was the local pro cyclist on the fast track to Europe before he tested positive for EPO. Like a man, he came clean and recently signed with an American pro team. He still has a way to go, but it is nice to know someone was willing to give him another chance. Everyone deserves another chance, and I wish all the luck to Adam — but more importantly to all the future winners of COW.

Even if I screwed this up, I find solace in knowing that even Luc Longley became a champion.
