Unless you’ve been living in a coffin for the past week, by now you are well aware of the University of Florida’s victory over Oklahoma for the BCS National Championship. A lot of people love (and hate) Tim Tebow right now, but it appears he isn’t finished kicking ass and taking names for God as he announced yesterday that he will be returning for his senior year instead of giving the NFL a whirl.
There have been some weird rumblings within the administrative bowels of the WWE this week. It looks like grown men in tights and funny boots aren’t immune to the credit crunch–just today the biggest name in wrestling announced they were cutting their staff by 10%. And although we’re not positive it’s directly related, it appears Linda McMahon has picked up a bit of side work moonlighting as an arbiter of our children’s futures. Somehow, someway the WWE CEO was appointed to the 11-member Board of Education in Stamford, Connecticut. Luckily, none of this has really affected the action inside the ring (apart from a few no-name wrestlers being canned), and last week Undertaker Tombstoned Shelton Benjamin to victory while Triple H was the winner of two Triple Jeopardy matches before succumbing to the considerable girth of Big Show.

In case you don’t follow the happenings of grown men who pummel each other for money, a major upset occurred in the world of boxing on Saturday night. The Golden Boy, got his gilded ass handed to him by dark horse Manny Pacquiao. Despite having every conceivable advantage (height, weight, reach), De La Hoya was forced to throw in the towel during the eighth round because Pacman turned his eye into something that looked like an aggravated tumor with hemorrhoids. Sorry Oscar, you just don’t fuck with a man who’s willing to jump three weight divisions in eight months so he can put his fists on your face legally.
Last Friday’s WWE Steel Cage match between Undertaker and Big Show was as a nice appetizer of brutality for the De Lay Hoya/Pacquiao match. Undertaker walked away the winner after a drawn-out slam fest. And we’d be remiss not to mention the skull-cracking insanity of the football game between the Florida Gators and the University of Alabama. The Gators won and, despite that goofy BCS ranking system, they will now be facing Oklahoma for the national championship. Everyone knows that Tebow guy is good but did you see him during this game? Is he some sort of eugenics experiment? What a freak.

The big news this week happened just last night when John Cena returned from herniated discville to defeat Chris Jericho at Survivor Series, defending his title as World Heavyweight Champion. Another heated Triple Threat battle earlier in the evening saw Edge edging out (the match was better than this pun, we swear) Triple H and Vladimir Kozlov for the WWE Championship.
In other face-pummeling developments, last Friday Panamanian powerhouse Celestino Caballero retained his WBA super featherweight title and gained the International Boxing Federation crown by beating the previously undefeated Steve Molitor in the fourth round. Last night the Argentine Hugo Hernan Garay defended his WBA light heavyweight title against the top boxer in the division, Juergen Braehme.
It was a big Sunday for NFL fans as Brett Favre led the Jets to yet another amazing win, putting a huge dent in the Tennessee Titan’s otherwise perfect record. There were a also couple other games that had asses glued to couches on Sunday: The Colts overtook the Chargers with a last-minute field goal, and the Redskins just barely fended off the Seahawks who failed to take advantage of a fumble with less than two minutes of play left.
