Springfield A&M
Some dude attributed a Simpsons' character to nearly every major college football program, with high-larious results. Truly, it is amazing how fitting a lot of these are. Here are the two local colleges and their respective Simpsons character:
Michigan: Kent Brockman Huge television draws both, and because of that, you just can't quite get away from either the Wolverines or Brockman; they demand your attention. Yet neither is quite as relevant as they think. At least three losses in six straight seasons? Now, at the risk of being unpopular, this reporter places the blame for all of this squarely on YOU, the viewers.
Michigan State: Gil the Salesman
All together now: "Damn, that felt like a Big 10 championship season!" It always begins the same with these guys, so hopeful, so full of promise, but they always manage to blow it sometime before the deal is closed. Since Gil is supposedly based on Jack Lemmon's sad-sack character from the film adaptation of "Glengarry Glen Ross," we have some advice for the Spartans: Coffee is for closers.
Click here to check out the rest of the list. It's pretty effin' sweet.

That's all I got...I'm sick and I'm bored and just want the NFL season to start so I can nerd out over my fantasy football teams.
