College Pick 'EM - Week 13
The results from last week are in and it looks like it is going down to the last week.The point standings so far: Billy -59*
Roach - 57*
Roy and Heath - 54*
*Note this is without the lowest score drops. The differentials are the same as w/ the drops, except for it bumps Heath up 4 points to be tied w/ Roy. I have used the drop system now several times (in my poker tournament series and now this) and I'm convinced now that it sucks. In the long run, it's more exciting to not drop points, as the drops ALWAYS screws the person who is consistent.
So its anyones ballgame. Here is the last full week of picks. Be sure to pick them before Turkey day.

Free Monday Eye/Ear Food
Obviously, I'm not giving you something you aren't familar with but if you've never seen this White Stripes video you are missing out. Here is the link. For some reason the embedding code has been removed.

Free Sunday Ear Food
Heres a good one that you may or may not have already heard of. It comes from a one man show named "Girl Talk". He is young guy about our age who has had a couple albums already out but you cant download them on itunes because his music is technically illegal to sell (you can buy it on amazon.com though.) He just came out with a new cd though and it is pretty damn good.
He essentially takes samples (without permission) from other songs and blends them together to make a new song. on average he takes about 15 different songs that you would never think to blend together and makes a nice little toe tapper out of them. His music is good background music at a wild party or orgy.
The whole new cd is available for free download at http://www.illegal-art.net/allday/
UPDATE
For those of you who are at work and can't download stuff

A Hypothetical Situation
Let's, for the sake of an argument, say that Cam Newton is, after winning the Heisman and national championship of course, found to be ineligible by the NCAA investigation. Auburn is stripped of their awards and told to be more careful in recruiting in the future. So Gene Chizik moves into the offseason, and into the new recruiting season. Let's say he takes on a "Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice....well that's strike three" mentality and decides that all communications, phone calls, voice mails, text messages, emails, letters, etc., are going to be recorded and filed away in order to cover their ass in any future investigation.
And because other schools and coaches in the country fear the same thing happening to them, decide to do the same in their recruiting from now on.
Jump to October 2011. Kiehl Frazier (yeah, he spells it like that) is Auburn's starting QB and en route to win the Heisman as a freshman!

Free Friday Ear Food - The XX
Busy day at work today, so not much time to sift the internet for some free tunes. Instead, I will use a band recommended to me by fellow blogger, His Eminence. I held back using them for the simple fact that they only have 7 songs on their myspace page, and I like for you guys to have the ability to hear the entire album, if not their entire discography. But in this case, their debut album only has 11 songs, so its a rather large sample of their sound in retrospect. I bought their album this week, and rather enjoyed it. It sounds like something you would hear in a coffee house in a back alley in West London. And as His Eminence so romantically put, it's a great band to fuck to.
I like them, His Eminence likes them, even Thom Yorke likes them (and you will soon hear why). Ladies and gentleman, I give you, The XX.

Compilation of Allegations
http://www.tigerdroppings.com/rant/messagetopic.asp?p=22778676
Here is a link to a blog that sort of compiles all the allegations against Auburn into one comprehensive thing that was just emailed to me. I'm not claiming that it's gospel, I just thought you all might be interested if you haven't already seen this.
