Though I don’t know much about the game, I did find several ridiculous football related things over the last week and for non-sports-fans, a few non-football points as well.

First off, the Titans are 0-5. Didn’t they go to the playoffs last year? This sort of reminds me of the post-Super Bowl season. Perhaps it could be because of their dilapidated field.

‘ I was watching the game Sunday, Oct. 11, and I could not help but notice how awful it looked. That part reminded me of my high school’s field when the pitch was too high and all the grass died.

My advice for a win: grounds crew overtime.

Off the field, and into the owners’ box now, I heard Gloria Estefan was a part owner of the Miami Dolphins.

Upon hearing this, I thought it could have possibly taken the cake for most ridiculous story of the week.

However, J.Lo and her Marc Anthony as well as the Williams sisters are part owners.

Leaving Miami for the NFC, the Rams have a few prospective buyers, including former ESPN football commentator Rush Limbaugh.

In a story by Chris Mortensen on ESPN.com, “NFL Players executive director DeMaurice Smith on Saturday made a move to solidify the union against a bid by conservative talk show radio host Rush Limbaugh as part of a group that aims to purchase the St. Louis Rams.”

Some people should just stick to what they know, and football, as far as I can tell, might not be his ideal extracurricular.

Just in case he doesn’t know, I think there still might be some black players on the team.

I decided to give the most ridiculous story of the week an award, and it is officially dubbed “The ’Dici.” This week’s goes hands down to Pepsi.

I heard about Pepsi’s iPhone application from a friend, but I had to see it for myself. I did a Google search to see if I could find something more about it online after reading the app details.

As a PCMag.com article puts it in their headline, “Sexist? Pepsi Has an App for That.” The app is free, but the content is going to pay a price.

The idea behind it is to not only promote the Amp energy drink, but to encourage ways for guys to “score” 24 different types of women.

From sorority girls to cougars, Pepsi is bound to help you hook up with whichever type of woman you are looking for.

Not only will they help you get the girl, they even included a “brag list” feature, “where you can tally all the women with whom you score, inputting her name, the date, and ‘whatever details you remember,’” according to the online story.

Finally, as most commuter students have probably seen, the Trahern lot makes me angry. When I went through with a friend to pick up another friend last week just as the 11 a.m. classes were getting out, the lot was less than half full.

If I didn’t live on campus and had to drive everyday, I would be making a bit more of a fuss about this.

I do understand faculty lost a lot of parking to construction, but I do not feel the half-used lot is fair to the rest of the campus community.

EDITOR’S NOTE:

Just prior to press time Monday, Oct. 12, Pepsi issued an apology for their app on Twitter, but did not remove the application from Apple’s App Store.
