BATTLE OF THE BLOGS 2: RAMS v AZTECS


It's that time again where we go head-to-head, or blog-to-blog with Aztec Killing Him. In case you missed it last year, this is where we exchange 8 random questions to answer on each other's blog. This maybe the last time we ever do this with San Diego State site since they're ditching us for the Big East. Here is our 8 questions, and this is how they answered them.

1.  Was moving to the Big East really a good idea or just an excuse to be a perennial bottom feeder in a different conference?
It's a good idea, but it has nothing to do with TV contracts or national prestige or any of that nonsense. It comes down to this: We have long yearned for the chance to secure a recruiting foothold in Storrs, Connecticut. Soon, my friend. Soon.

2.  Math question:  Calculate the time:  A flight to play Rutgers, travel to and from airport, and getting in and out of any NYC area airport, finding hotel?
Let's see here, carry the five ... AHA — got it. The answer to your question is 0.75 trips to Laramie, Wyoming.

3.  Ronnie Hillman is now a Bronco, coincidence that he came to Colorado?  BTW he's moved up the depth chart quickly by throwing some wicked stiff arms at defenders.
It's funny, you should have seen the way the Aztecs-Chargers combo fans reacted when the Broncos selected Hillman. Heads literally — literally! — exploded when the realization set in that they'd have to pull for a guy in an orange jersey. As a 49ers fine this didn't really bother me. All that comes to mind when I think of the Broncos is 55-10.

4.  Speaking of Ronnie Hillman, I started him at my flex position this past weekend and he scored a point and a half. Thanks. Do you have any reaction to this debacle?
I'm assuming you'll drop Hillman immediately as soon as some NFL team signs Gartrell Johnson, correct?

5. San Diego is not a state. What will it take for them to be part of the union?
 We will never join so long as the FDA insists on sending inspectors to our taco shops. Everything is ship-shape back there, trust us.

6. Are the Aztecs suffering from a Brady Hoke screwing or do they even care about Michigan?
I certainly don't blame Brady's departure for this team failing to turn the corner. Hell, it's only because of him that we know where the corner even is. I don't care about Michigan, but I wish Brady well ... in the sense that I don't wish him any specific ill. That said, I think we all enjoy a good "Brady Hoke is fat" joke when we hear one. Because I'm not sure if you've noticed, but Brady Hoke is quite fat!

7.  It’s a Denver weekend in SD with both the Broncos and Rams in town. Do you think anyone would notice if we subbed Manning for McPeek?
 I think we'd figure out it was Manning as soon as the CSU quarterback starting incessantly hawking products. Well, that and moving the ball and scoring touchdowns — that would be a tip-off too.

8. CSU is getting a new $250 million stadium. Jealous?
I won't lie, having an on-campus stadium would be pretty sweet. Word of advice: Once you build this thing, make sure not to build a basketball arena in the middle of it. That will totally ruin it.
