Actually, thats probably the most accurate statement I've seen on ESPN in months....

I'm not sure it actually *was* on ESPN -- might have been Photoshopped. Certainly looks convincing though doesn't it?

I'm proud of ESPN for such truth in advertising.

It definitely was on ESPN. Happened around 11.15 if I remember rightly, and I couldn't stop laughing. From then on, they wouldn't use the same shot/focus on Corso until the sign had gone, and just kept everything wide-angle for the last 45 minutes or so.

Hilarious.

Yeah -- I ended my respect for Corso when he was all, "Miami's going to beat the living hell out of the Tide." Then, 31-13. Not only were Fowler, Corso and Craig James wearing "Bama #1" pins on the Sunday recap, but Fowler handed Corso a fake crow in between two slices of bread. Best GameDay memory ever.

Yeah, I definitely agree. The jerk picked Ohio State to beat Penn State. Afterwards JoePa made Corso shove his microphone up his ass. True story.

The sign definitely got on TV, i remember seeing it and laughed my ass off.

I haven't really listened to anything that retard has said since he picked FSU to beat OU in the Orange Bowl in 2000.

Not so fast my friend, I am a dildo, a fake penis.

this is funny because just this week i was telling my friends i wanted to go to game day and hold up such a sign. Bravo drunken college guy!

I am convinced mr. corso is a shell of his former self as an insightful and entertaining figure on college gameday.

i also think the sign was a result of the interview gone wrong in, i think it was, texas last week where he was offended by a harmless quip. (if everyone was so easily offended by the media we'd be in nuclear winter by now)

That's a funny sign. I saw some good ones when gameday was here at Penn State, notably "Lee Corso is an assmaster," but the best I saw all day read:

Corso 41-68-2

Paterno 348-116-3 (Now 351 wins - congrats JoPa)

...or when he said Arizona was gonna stomp Penn State back in 99, or when he picked Ohio State to dominate Penn State this year.. He's a douche. This pic is awesome.

Corso is a tool. No sense of humor as evidenced by his outburst on a radio show concerning whether he had ever posed naked for a photoshoot.

ha ha ha. corso is a penis. i actually saw that saturday.

Picked the Irish to go 0-6 to open this year. Nuff said.

You guys have no clue. Corso is one of the funniest analysts out there. Im sick and tired of seeing these stiff former college players turned "experts" hammering the same subject into the ground.

Granted Corso may fumble his words, and gives the analysis for the wrong game at times, but what would a college gameday be without Corso's pick at the end.

The man is pure entertainment, don't be a homer and hold a grudge just because he picked against your team once.

i liked this one: "Notre Dame will go 0 and 6 in their first six games of 2005"...

after Pitt game (42-21 ND) "...I hold strong, they will now go 1-5"

after Mich game (17-10 ND) "...no comment"

they are now 4-2, by the way. go irish.

I don't know of a single person anywhere in the country who can stand listening to or watching Corso. You would figure this would carry over to network exucutives as well. Who in the decision making roles likes him and why? How does this guy have a job on national TV?

Hey, I love this blog...Roll Tide!!!!
I have made a habit of laughing at Corso's stupidity for the last 15 years...I remember the pick "Miami will destroy Alabama"...That next day was great!
Why is this guy an expert...his career record was something like 51-136-4...?

yeah the jackass also said South Carolina wouldn't win another game all year and win we won 3 more....he hasnt said shit since. fucker.

I think they pay Corso to be wrong intentionally. It would be really boring if they agreed all the time. Either that or the producers hired him because he can't help being wrong.

Maybe on his resume it says, "Job Description: Being Wrong." Not a lot of people are qualified to do that kind of work you know.

seems like every year when miami plays florida state, whoever corso picks, the other team wins.
He is bad luck if he picks your team.

Lay off... Corso rules, I love the Gameday crew... yea the sign is funny but college football without Corso would be boring. Just because he PREDICTS wrong mean he sucks? It's a guessing game retards, you'd be just as wrong but you'll look a million times worse doing it. I'm sorry all your teams suck

It's not a matter of being right or wrong in your predictions. It's a matter of being an idiot and annoying to the point viewers are changing the channel, which most of the people I know do. That is bad for ratings and is why I cannot understand why he still has a job. Same can be said for Al McGuire - I along with many other I know turn the sound off if my team is playing and he is commentating.

He looks like Mel Brooks... Hes prolly confused

The sign is funny and definately SHOULD have been on TV. However, that douche in the front with the sombrero on had no business being on TV. How do you wear that thing in public - drunk or not? A bigger embarassment to the Dawg Nation than being UF's bitch.

I would buy that man a beer

Now that's funny.

Loved your book. Funniest thing I've ever read.

hahaha, i was thinking that ever since corso picked tech to lose at home then got his stupid rental struck by lightning

Dear craig, who said "Lay off...Corso rules..." Go kill yourself. Oh, and Corso, you go do the same. The guy holding the sign is my new idol.

Hey JT...

It was Florida and the score was 31-3. Douchebag. Go back to watching Pooh & Friends on Saturday mornings...

Dumbass...

i like soda.

Didn't he pick West Virginia to win it all last year?

You idiots keep talking about all of his wrong picks, he's also picked ALOT of winners. Including Underdog Ohio State beating Miami at the Fiesta Bowl. So give the guy some slack.

Justin, it doesn't matter who Ohio State is playing, he is biased towards them. If there is a shred of a possibility they could win, he'll pick them. So he deserves no credit for that, he just got lucky.

He IS a disease-riddled penis!!! I was so annoyed during the S.Carolina/Tenn game when all he could do was talk shit about the Gamecocks only to have us win yet again. (I also loved how TENN had fireworks going off with 2 minutes to go...hahaha.) I hope he picks us to lose the rest of the season, because it seems to guarantee wins if Lee Corso picks your team to lose. What a fuckin tool. I'm right there with the guy who said they must pay him to be wrong and look like an idiot...it's like he's deliberately acting as a caricature of a sports commentator...I also kinda agree with the guy who said he looks like Mel Brooks. HEY! maybe he IS Mel Brooks pretending to be a sports commentator...in which case he's fucking brilliant! That would be TV gold. (Think the governor from Blazing Saddles doing sports!)

Oh, and Justin, who said "You idiots keep talking about all of his wrong picks, he's also picked ALOT of winners. Including Underdog Ohio State beating Miami at the Fiesta Bowl. So give the guy some slack."

It's the shotgun approach...make a buttload of predictions and some of them are bound to be accurate or close. Then you just try to make everyone forget about all the predictions you made that were WAY OFF. This would be easy to do if Corso weren't such a DOUCHE, talking shit all the time.

Is that a picture of "Rudy" next to the sign?

The real Rudy Ruettiger, not Sean Astin...

Hey Brian Badger, you might want to check YOUR facts. Al McGuire (sp?) was a basketball coach, and led Marquette to a national championship. Paul McGuire (sp?) works for ESPN Sunday Night Football. Oh, and Al McGuire died of cancer a few years back. Hmm, facts, they are so unimportant sometimes, huh?

hey yall,
NCDawg, im gonna take you up on that beer, and hokie, thanks for making me your new idol. im glad to see that you enjoyed my sign-- i didnt realize the sign would be such a big hit. and i just want to say that even if we DAWGS would have gone undefeated for the whole season, we STILL would have been shafted when it came to going to the Nat'l championship game. There is a real problem with how they rank because SEC teams get no respect and i can firmly say that the SEC is the toughest group of teams in the country. easily. The 2004 Auburn Tigers finished the season undefeated and didnt get a nat'l championship chance. I think they would have beat the shit out of USC-- or at least would have gave them a run for their money.

and by the way, if anyone can find a video clip i would appriciate it if you could send it to me or post it so i can find it. when the cops had enough and found me they grabbed me by the belt and shoulder and pulled me down-- so the replay probably shows my feet fly in the air. haha. take it easy guys
GO DAWGS!!!!!!!!!

I have known Todd for a long time. I just knew that he would get the fame he deserves. Great work Todd D.

lee corso i a dumbshit he sucks first he couldnt coach 41-68-2 now he picks notre dame to go 0-6 first half of the year and they were 4-2 shows some stupidy

Lee Corso picked your team to lose - SO WHAT! ESPN must be right in keeping him because it's obvious that he's doing what they pay him to do...'keep people watching' since all of you did and still do. Mr. Corso, keep up the good work. You've picked against my team many times but you won't get any hate mail from me because it's 'just a game'. Have a Happy New Year, All!
