Pirates make moves

The Pirates were pretty quiet during the winter meetings but in the days following the meetings they made a few aquisitions. They signed free agent first baseman Lyle Overbay and outfielder Matt Diaz. This goes along with a few smaller signings they already made and the big adding of manager Clint Hurdle. Maybe the future is a little brighter for the BUCS?

BCS Madness

Every year around this time everyone starts to talk and complain about the good old BCS system. Already this year like in recent ones past it has created conroversy. Many fans want to see a playoff system for various resons. I would also like to see a playoff format for the simple reason that every top team has a fair shot. In the current system there are teams going to BCS bowls from the Big East and ACC who are unranked and underserving of playing in these bowls. However, I like most people would rather see a playoff system because the BCS is a huge mess.
