Now that a few days have passed and the dust has settled lets take a minute to examine the Randy Couture vs. James Toney or as some less civilized would call the MMA vs. Boxing match. First off not taking away anything from Randy he had a job to do and he did it but clearly James was just looking to make a lot of noise with this fight and he succeeded. He couldn't get down to any kind of athletic shape if his life depended on it and his big money boxing days are clearly behind him even though he holds some type of joke boxing belt. So in a moment of pure genius he plays off of a debate that has been brewing in the combat sports underworld, Who would win a fight The Boxer or The Mixed Martial Artist. Now both of these boys were in there prime when i was failing English in Jr. High so to say this is even close to a true test of that question is absolutely absurd.

According to a Harris International Poll release last night, Kobe Bryant and Tiger Woods are tied in first place for America's Favorite athlete.

The rest of the list is as follows: Derek Jeter (3), Brett Farve (4) Peyton Manning (5), Lebron James (6), Micheal Jordan (7), Tom Brady (8), Drew Brees (9), Dale Ernhardt Jr. (10).
According to knoxnews.com, you guys are currently searching for a new mascot. I hear you still want to be called the Rebels, but you feel like "Colonel Reb" is too old south and you've narrowed the mascot choices down to either a horse, a lion, a bear, a land shark or a hotty and toddy. Lets eliminate the land shark and the lion right off the bat. Lion is way over used in the mascot world and what does a land shark have to do with Ole Miss? Bear and horse are out. Both are overused as well. A hotty and toddy? Really? Your mascot is going to be an alcoholic beverage? Nope not really smart for a college to use alcohol as a mascot. To be perfectly honest I think the school needs a name and mascot change. An old southern school that calls itself the "Rebels" just screams old south. Not to worry Ole Miss, Hugo Brie is on it. Naming teams is something I do, I'm pretty good at it. So here go with this: The University of Mississippi Oxen aka the Ole
