Big ten football power rankings: the beginning

Just like Manti Te’o I’m back in the news cycle, reminding everyone I’m not the only one whose relevance peaked in 2012.

I’m nearing the umpteenth year of writing something to this affect (I still have to look up effect vs. affect. Some things will never change) and I feel like I’m really hitting my stride. And I’m afraid that’s more a function of the Big Ten being on autopilot.

Honestly at this point, it’s hard not to blame the conference for keeping the status quo. In my age, I’m basically doing the same thing: wake up at 5am everyday, get Mad Online, work from 6-11, take a nap, get Mad Online over something new, move the trackpad for an hour, workout, look for a future ex wife (this is also getting Mad Online) and go to bed.
