SportsFilter: The Saturday Huddle:

A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.

Why couldn't the recent e-coli recall have been on arugula instead of romaine?

-------------------------------------

I want the Heisman to go to Haskins, for two reasons.

1) It would take some of the edge off of Ohio State as they head into the Rose Bowl. They're already going to be jacked up because it's Meyer's last game as coach. If they also felt that Haskins got jobbed in the award voting, that would add more fuel to the fire. I want the game to be competitive. If the Buckeyes go in double stoked, I fear for the Huskies' chances.

Plus, it's not like Haskins isn't deserving. He is way more dynamic than Troy Smith ever was.

2) If Tagovailoa and Murray got passed over by the Heisman voters, the Oklahoma-Alabama game would then feature two major talents with chips on their shoulders, and that game would become an intergalactic battle for the world to behold.

-- Also, I want Brady Quinn, Condoleezza Rice, or some other notable Golden Domer to say something really dumb and disrespectful about Clemson.
