Official SirJager Final College Football Rankings

Here is the final SirJager College Football Standings.

Here's the real deal people. No one has paid me off so here's the true unbiased rankings for the year!

1. Utah

2. Florida

3. Texas

4. T - Oklahoma/Alabama

6. USC

Utah is undefeated. You really can't make an argument there unless you want a playoff system. Florida is #2 as they did lose to Ole Miss and the QB teared up during an interview. Oklahoma and Alabama tied at fourth. Again what can you say have a playoff system. Alabama only loss was to the #1 and #2 team and Oklahoma did hang with Florida.

The final game was not very impressive, at least through the first three quarters as I went to bed. I expected two power houses to come out and go all out for #1.

ESPN headlines had Florida as "Chompions". How long did it take to make that crap up? In the back of their minds they still want USC to be #1 but just couldn't muster up the kahunas to put them there this year.

Next year? Who knows. The only thing I can say is, I wish Boise State would get a new field. How annoying is that thing?

Final Note: Not happy with the rankings? I have a paypal account email me and I'll see what I can do.

iPhone Camera Bag App

UPDATE: I've added a new review for Camera Bag on earlb.com

After playing with my iPhone for a month I would give the iPhone camera a 6 out of 10. It takes OK pictures but you have to tinker a bit to get something decent.

Now I'm not going to replace my DSLR with the iPhone camera but it does have it's place in my world of photography. Like I always say, "Guns don't kill people, people kill people", so the same goes for taking pictures. Think about it.

Anyway here's a little app that will spruce up your iPhone pics and it's cheap. I got it for 99 cents. It's called camera bag and duplicates certain "styles" of pictures. One is Ansel Adams and as you can imagine converts it to black and white. Another I like is called 1974 which looks like an old image from you guessed it, 1974.

You can see some examples on The Chronicles of Jager which is all done via my mobile phone which is an iPhone these days.

enjoy-

Franken to be declared winner - Imagine that!

Great job Minnesota. As soon as Franken gets a lead Harry Reid is ready to seat him and now Minnesota says unless the supreme court acts on Coleman's request to recount Al Franken will be seated as Senator.

While we are at it let's just put the whole cast of SNL in Washington.

Low Carbon foods

Yes you read right - low carbon foods. Some of the chatter out there now is how our eating is effecting the environment.

Beef of chicken? Well beef is not very environmentally friendly. The cows live longer and produce more methane.

California and New York are going to put sticker on cars with a rating based on how much carbon they produce. If we do this for the cars shouldn't we do it for the cows too? Maybe people should just have to wear stickers based on their carbon production.

Is it possible these studies are showing up now just before Obama is set to take office?

Your thoughts?

The iPhone rocks but...

Well my "kids" got me an Apple iPhone for Christmas. Needless to say it's an awesome gift. The 3G has worked great most places and I've found a lot of nice apps for the phone.

My wife is happy because the best feature to her is someone actually answers the phone. But my other phone had issues so you can't really blame me. ;-)

Anyway here are just a few of the features I use daily; GMail, facebook, twitter, Weather App, Google Maps App, Camera Bag App. There are really too many to list. The one downside and I'm not sure why Apple has not fixed this, is there is no easy way to copy/paste.

The lack of copy/paste is a known sore spot amongst iPhone users so I assume Apple will address this soon. When posting to facebook, twitter, or Gmail it would be nice to have that feature.

Fix that Apple and you will make a lot of happy iPhone users lives complete!

Reliving the Flexy Racer

A few months ago I blogged about a sled with wheels I had when I was a kid. It was called a Flexy Racer. I have received a few emails and comments on the Flexy Racer so I thought I would post a link back to that article in case anyone got a Flexy Racer for Christmas.

Actually these days Flexy Racers would be completely outlawed and possibly only seen on some Jack Ass movie or stupid tricks for MTV show. I really don't know how we survived those days. Not sure what a Flexy Racer is? Just click the link below.

And if you did get one for Christmas you might want to consider the gift givers real intentions.

Ayers book Fugitive Days, not so hot on Amazon

Well it didn't take long after the election for old William Ayers to show up in the media. Good Morning America interviewed Ayers this morning and somewhat promoted his book "Fugitive Days: A Memoir".

The book was published in 2001 around September 11th and describes events in his life up through his days in the domestic terror group, the Weather Underground. I looked it up on Amazon and "looked inside". The first words in the book are "Memory is a MotherF****r". Nice Bill, that's another thing you and Obama have in common.

That is about as much I will read of his book. I did look at the reviews and they were all horrible. It's something like 15 (5) stars to 65 (1) star with very few in between. You gotta figure if you write a book, you will have 10-15 friends give you some good ratings on Amazon so that's probably how the book received 15 (5) star ratings. Other than that people pretty much blast his book. Not so good for such a distinguished writer huh?

Best Part about the election being over

Wow, no more Obama ads! thank you...

What will Facebook and MySpace do? That seemed to be half of their revenue the past 2 months.

hey - just trying to look at the bright side

Do Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton still have jobs

I'm just wondering if Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton still have jobs or a voice? Seems like they can just go straight to the top with their issues now.

What about the other minority groups? Are they still minority groups?

just a thought...

McCain - Man of Honor

John McCain called Barack Obama to concede the election.

McCain said to supporters-

Though we fell short, the failure is mine, not yours.

Words of a TRUE man of Honor.

The fight will continue...

Schumer tells of things to come

Chuck Schumer on Fox News gave us preview of things to come if the Democrats have complete power. He actually compared alternative media or conservative opinion to pornography. The Democrats are itching to re implement the fairness doctrine.

Watch Schumer's comments on Fox News.

Obama can't close the deal

Think about this people.

Obama raised some $600 million questionable dollars. McCain took $80 million in public financing.

Obama had groups like ACORN operating illegally to register voters.

Obama has the mainstream media backing him 110%

Obama had the convenience of never taking tough questions and dodging the issues.

By all accounts he should be killing McCain.

Still in the end he can't close the deal. By closing the deal I mean on election day the election is still up in the air.

Just food for thought...

Money to Burn Barack? Obama date line

Ok...So I'm sitting here pushing the "We the People" video on Facebook and all I get on the right side are Obama Ads. Now these aren't even Presidential Ads.

Look at the AD here. What the hell is this? The Obama Date Connection? Maybe call it Barry's swanky lounge. Or, maybe he and Michelle just needed some family photos..

I guess he's got to get rid of all that cash he has from his...uh you know "donations."

Obama Speech Writer to vote for McCain

Wendy Button is a speech writer for Obama, Clinton and Edwards and is now voting for McCain. She said the final straw was "Joe the Plumber".

Wendy states:

The final straw came the other week when Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher (a.k.a Joe the Plumber) asked a question about higher taxes for small businesses. Instead of celebrating his aspirations, they were mocked. He wasn’t “a real plumber,” and “They’re fighting for Joe the Hedge-Fund manager,” and the patronizing, “I’ve got nothing but love for Joe the Plumber.”

It seems she has broken free from the Obama hypnotic state and come to reason. How many more will?

Interesting Guest on LA Times tape?

The LA Times is holding the tape of Barack Obama at the 2003 Arab American Action Network and will not release it for some reason. Most think that it will show Barack in his true form and not very Presidential.

What is interesting who is on the guest list. We all know Bill Ayers, Bernadine Dorn, and Rashid Knalidi were in attendance. There is also a group called the Sanabel AlQuds Dabka troupe or Sanabel Debka that was in attendance.

Sanabel Debka is a Muslim based dance group of kids from Milwaukee who perform a Middle Eastern step dance. What's interesting is what they incorporated into their act in 2004.

In a dance in 2004 they broke into a side performance where several kids were adorned with American, British and Israeli flags. Other performers pretended to shoot or behead the kids wearing the flags. Did they perform this at the 2003 dinner?

Obviously this is not a group any patriotic American or for that matter person with common sense would watch or support.

Hmmmm - Sure would like to see the tape. Your thoughts?

Here is an in-depth article by Debbie Schlussel:

Newpapers that endorsed McCain kicked off Obama's plane

The N.Y. Post, Washington Times, and Dallas Morning News have all been kicked off of Obama's campaign plane to be replaced by "network bigwigs" and the two black magazines Essence and Jet. Imagine that.

All three papers have recently endorsed Senator John McCain, but the Obama campaign states that it just doesn't have enough seats available. Some of the people on the plane have been covering the 2008 election for a year now and get the boot in the final hours.

It shouldn't come as a surprise. The Obama campaign has repeatedly banned news outlets that asked tough questions and didn't bow down in his presence. And we all know what happens when a citizen questions the great one, just ask Joe the Plumber.

Funny though, the Obama campaign said, "oh there are some seats left on the Biden plane, you can ride with him". geee thanks what a consolation prize.

Free Speech people....enjoy it while you can because if Obama becomes king, uh I mean President the democrats have a plan to squash those who oppose. Google fairness doctrine.

Does Obama have a copy of Ayers Prairie Fire?

In 1974 the book Prairie Fire was published as the manifesto of the domestic terrorist organization The Weather Underground, headed by Bill Ayers.

Prairie Fire, which stands for The Politics of Revolutionary Anti-Imperialism, had four authors including Ayers. In the book he states;

"We need a revolutionary communist party in order to lead the struggle, give coherence and direction to the fight, seize power and build a new society"

Ok, so he's communist. Just a few years ago in a recent interview he still admits he's a Marxist and anarchist.

We all know Obama says, "he's just a guy down the street". We also know it goes much deeper than that of which I will not cover here.

One thing however Obama should have a problem with is one of the dedications in Ayers book. At the end of Prairie Fire there are numerous dedications to various radials but one in particular should catch Democrats eyes, Sirhan Sirhan.

Sirhan Sirhan is the convicted assassin of Senator Robert F. Kennedy on June 5, 1968. Democrats can overlook the Rev. Wright, Tony Rezco, and some of Ayers issues, but the fact one of their own was killed by someone who was hailed by Ayers should cross the line.

I assume Senator Barack Obama will have nothing to say and avoid the issue at all costs but I think deep down Democrats are wondering what they have got themselves in to.

Wouldn't you like to take a look and see what's on Sen Obama's bookshelf?

Fight With Me! - Video

This is a video for Republicans, Democrats, Conservatives, Liberals....all Americans.

We the People have a choice to make. In just a few days we will vote in one of the most important elections in our lifetime.

The United States is the greatest country on the face of the Earth if not all of history. We the People need to get it back on track. We've done it before. Not because someone gave us a handout but because Americans pull together, overcome adversity and rise to the occasion. That's how our country was built.

We've put men on the moon, we've overcome evil empires, we stood up against aggression in the Cold War. We go to the aide of countries devastated by a tsunamis and other natural disasters.

American athletes don't win gold medals because their government train them for years, they win because of hard work and dedication.

It's time to stop looking at what's in it for me and start fighting to put our country back on the right path.

Enjoy the video and feel free to comment!
