Since trading Manny Ramirez to the Dodgers, there has been one man who has missed “Manny Being Manny” the most – David Ortiz.  Without Manny hitting behind him, Ortiz has regressed back to his normal mediocre
self and is no longer carrying the big stick as the folk hero he has become since going to Boston.

David Ortiz was nicknamed “Big Papi” for continually coming up big in clutch situations, especially during the postseason.  While many will argue that Ortiz has been the most valuable player of the The Post-Curse Era Red Sox, perhaps that is only because of the man with dreads and baggy pants that used to wear number-24.

Why aren’t people still up in arms about girls flaunting their drunken madness on Facebook?

The topic was hot as a pistol – covered by almost every news source just days after the controversial group “30 Reasons Girls Should Call It A Night” was created, but now, almost a year later, the drama has subsided.

It’s time to rustle some feathers by unleashing our infamous and well commented COED post back into the wild for a whole new batch of COED users to enjoy.

Despite Poor Economy, Coaches Still Making Bank

Gas is $4 a gallon—and rising. The economy is struggling. Some believe the worst is yet to come.

But you can’t tell it by college football coaches’ salaries. They’re breaking the bank.

In 1995, Bobby Bowden became the first $1 million coach in college football. Now, the average salary for head coaches at major college football programs exceeds $1 million a year. [Tennessean]

Here is my response to the UK’s Daily Mail article titled “The ladettes who glorify their shameful drunken antics on Facebook”:

“Drunken antics” points out how Facebook is being used as a tool for girls to flaunt how drunk and wild they get in college. I know this sounds like an oxymoron; but just look at the Facebook group “30 Reasons Girls Should Call It A Night” for proof.

Over 157,000+ skanky members and growing by the minute.

What I expected to be an article featuring telling photographic proof of the graphic “gone wild” antics of college girls turned out to be a PG-censored fest. Very disappointing!

At first I assumed that I was the only person who felt they were duped into clicking the story by an eye-catching, NSFW-esque title, but apparently I wasn’t – just look at the disgruntled Digg comment board for the story!

To help everyone better understand the drunken antics of today’s college girls I have compiled a series of seven galleries, each representing seven different major US colleges.

***All pictures were taken from Facebook, thus proving there is indeed drunken madness going down 24/7 on college campuses…and girls love to flaunt it on Facebook!***

‘I don’t speak at as many colleges as I wish I could,’ admits Al Franken, just a few hours after taping his radio show for Air America (conveniently titled The Al Franken Show). Maybe it’s because the left-wing maverick is kind of busy these days. He’s speaking at congressional forums on media bias; hosting and writing a radio show, as well as its companion TV show on the Sundance Channel; writing bestselling books (a new one, as yet untitled, is due this fall); and exploring the possibility of running in the 2008 Senate race. But the Minnesota native did have time to talk to CO-ED about his college days and how to truly make a political difference … both at your school and in the world. (more…)
