From Black Heart Gold Pants' act of northern aggression against the SEC's playoff stance and its most revered fast food:
You could drop a Chick-Fil-A franchise in my living room and I wouldn't eat there more than once a month. Perhaps you'd like a breaded sandwich made from an animal that tastes like something? I can bring you some pork. I'll bring you some pork.
Also, congrats, SEC fans: In your reflexive need to react against carpetbagger Yankees with torches and pitchforks, you just inadvertently stuck up for the BCS and placed Jim Delany -- JIM DELANY, PEOPLE -- on the side of Dan Wetzel and the other BCS antagonists. He might be the defender of the Rose Bowl, but you have become the defenders of a status quo that everyone uniformly hates.
And from Dixie's retort heard 'round the football blogosphere, by And The Valley Shook:
BHGP starts off its playoff rant with an opening salvo against Southern food. Is that really the way you want to play this? A Midwesterner is gonna run smack on food? Southern food is a legitimate cuisine, Midwestern food is something too depressing to contemplate. When I want advice on how much Miracle Whip to put on my bologna on white bread sandwich, I'll call a Big Ten fan, but not until then.
See, that's how crappy midwestern food is. Iowa can even screw up a Chick-Fil-A sandwich.
Hey, look. I do agree that we shouldn't reflexively oppose things just because the Big Ten supports them. That's how nine-year-olds develop opinions. But there's a reason we instinctively tense up whenever Delany opens his big mouth: he's usually saying something detrimental to the SEC.
FULL DISCLOSURE: I had Chick-fil-A for breakfast and am trying to talk my associates into having it for lunch. However, I just want the playoffs to have the four best teams with as little stupid shit happening along the way as possible.
While we’re here, let’s watch some college football videos from SB Nation’s new YouTube channel together:
