This is the first in what we hope will be many Swamp-user submitted posts. This is from papaduff, who in his spare time enjoys playing in corn mazes with Lou Ferrigno.

As I was flipping through the channels last night, I stopped on ESPN looking for a game. What was I thinking? There was no sporting event, just the Home Depot ESPNU College Football Awards at Disney’s BoardWalk at the Walt Disney Resort. For one thing that name is much too long. And for another, does anyone really watch this drivel? I love watching college football, but this is way over the top.

In the brief time that I watched, I got to listen to Kirk Herbstreit chatting about who would win a chess match between Tim Tebow and Sam Bradford. Sam gave that one to Tim. The Tebows don’t have much else to do on their trips around the world, apparently.

The excitement as I waited through commercial break to find out who would win the Frank Broyles Award was gripping. And how can someone win the Chuck Bednarik Award (USC’s Rey Maualuga) and not the Bronco Nagurski Trophy (Brian Orakpo, Texas)? Both are awarded to the most outstanding defensive player. Of course, from what I heard while watching Florida vs. Alabama last Saturday, it should have been Tebow, as he was constantly compared to Nagurski.

Here’s hoping they show the SOAPIES next year.
