The Best Damn Poll In The Land

The Fools Staff Who Makes This Happen

The Greek: Founder, Administrator, Staff Writer, and Socially Unacceptable

Bio: Born and bred a Gator, my passion for college football extends beyond just the Orange and Blue. I have always wanted to be a writer, but my style is somewhat of a sticking point for me to be hired by most places. I tried blogging on various sports sites, tried participating on their forums, yet I found that it was more of hassle to avoid the trolls and the morons that usually run those places. I also believed that the fans deserved to have a voice in the National rankings of college football teams. We buy the tickets, we buy the jerseys, we watch the games on the TV...which drives up advertising profits...why do the writers (who don't know shit) and coaches (who only watch 1 game a week) get to decide who is ranked where? Why not the fans...and why not now. So I assembled the greatest group of fans on the planet, and we created The Best Damn Poll In The Land. I hope you enjoy our efforts, because they are all for you...BY THE FANS, FOR THE FANS!

G8rSweetie: CoFounder, Administrator, Staff Writer, Sack Stomper, and Resident Hottie

Bio: I bet the first thing that crossed your mind was, "What is this girl doing on here amidst all these misfits and heathens?  Is it to fulfill some sort of affirmative action quota?"  Not by a long shot.  Like every other die hard SEC fan, for me college football is a love and a sickness.  I guess it is something in the water down here in the dirty south.  I am a 1st generation UF alum who spent 4 years working with the Gator football program.  I fully understand and accept that this fact alone makes me a Gator homer to the nth power.  As soon as they start making badges for that I will wear mine with pride.  In the meantime, I'll just continue to sport my jorts and argue with all you haters.  And don't think for a second that you'll just push this chick around when it comes to sports talk.  Most would forewarn that I am feisty.  I prefer to say that I'm just passionately outspoken.  So bring your A game and don't cry if you end up getting kicked in the nads somewhere along the way.  Remember, you were probably asking for it. 

TheNerd: Administrator, Technical Programmer Genius, Digital Artist, Holder of the Golden Mouse

Bio: I'm the definition of a nerd, I have more computers than most people have IQ points. Most of my time is spent indoors staying goth white and growing the ass-print in my favorite chair. I love video games, technology of any sort, science, horror, baseball, and am getting educated in football. Yes, like most of my kind, I don't understand it. However, it won't be long until I've at least mastered a video game version of it, and can "pwn" you all on xbox. Somehow I tricked a woman into marrying me, and worse yet, sleeping with me long enough to produce and unbelievably beautiful child. Wonders may never cease. I'm responsible for the technical side of this site - however that doesn't mean I want to hear your bitching.

Maestro: Administrator, Player of the Week Guy, and the Dali Lama for this group of miscreants

Bio: Born the son of a Buckeye and a Bobcat (Ohio U that is), this native Ohioan is a Buckeye fan through and through. As fate would have it I was forced to move south as a youngster, and I spent most of my formative years in The Lone Star State. A graduate of the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center, and a current resident of Oklahoma, I'm an Ohio State homer with a Big XII twist.......let's just call me a Red Buckeye.

TeddyDupay4: CoFounder, Administrator, Conference Chaos Creator, Staff Writer, and Verbal Scourger

Bio:  As the one white guy other than Marshall Mathers born in the Motor City, I bleed, crap, and pee maize and blue.  The latter 2 conditions probably have to do more with a few one night stands gone awry rather than any actual fan condition.  I realize, as you should, that Michigan runs college football the way Anthony Mason runs his brothel.  I played basketball in college- mostly to meet the "short, white guy quota," and I enjoy beer, short skirts, pissing people off, and JJ Redick.  If your hate mail is good enough, it might wind up on my beer casket....I mean fridge. 

Eloveku: Administrator, Staff Writer, and Mizzou Hater

Bio: Growing up in Southern California, it's every boy's dream to move to Kansas, mainly for the beautiful people, weather, and scenery... uhhh... ok, so maybe not, but that's how my story goes. At the ripe old age of 17, I headed to Lawrence, Kansas to pursue my footabll dreams. It was there that I learned the NFL was apparently not interested in big, slow white guys (who'd have thunk it huh?). Though my football career may be over, the sport still courses through my veins. Through the course of my life I've learned two absolute truths, one, college football is THE greatest sport ever. And two, Missouri sucks. As long as we can see eye to eye on those two things, we'll get along just fine! Rock Chalk Jayhawk KU!

Goosewv7: Administrator, Staff Writer, and Pitt Hater

Bio: You may be asking yourself how someone named after a character in Top Gun who died in the movie, has anything remotely important or coherent to say when it comes to college football.  You may even be wondering how someone from West Virginia is able to unlock the Al Gore Code (most know this as the Internet) to be a part of something so technologically advanced as TBDPITL.  (Here is a hint: it was developed by a Florida fan...'nuff said).  Well listen up you SEC, Pac 10, Big Ten, Big 12, and even you ACC fans who think the Big East is just a basketball thingy.  Born and raised in Morgantown, WV, I have spent my entire life devoting most of my free time to the world of sports (in a completely non-sexual intimate way).  I've been a WVU football season ticket holder for about a decade, and I have traveled to some of the finest stadiums and campuses in the USA to watch the sport we love.  If I'm not at a game, I'm watching the game...and not just on any regular ol' TV.  I'm watching it in high-butt licking-definition TV SON!  SO THERE!  Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

The512: Administrator, Staff Writer, TBDPITL Marketing Man Extraordinaire

Bio: I like numbers.  And Mila Kunis.  More than college kids like ramen noodles, coitus and Pabst Blue Ribbon.  And that's why I'm here.  In the real world, I sit at a computer all day and buy golf clothes, running numbers all day every day to sell as much Dri-FIT and ClimaCool apparel as humanly possible (in between following every morsel of news of my beloved Texas Longhorns).  Believe it or not, that has an application to this site.  And it turns out Greek had a need for whatever business acumen I have, so I found myself as a member of the Staff amidst all these fine people on TBDPITL.  When it comes to college football, my passion for the sport is enhanced by my love of numbers, using statistics to compile my weekly poll and Conference Chaos articles, complete with token Mila references. So if you like a steady dose of crazy stats, pop culture references, anti-OU sentiment, and Mila Kunis allusions, stop by the Conference Chaos and give a look-see.  Peace!
