The Only Podcast #2: Sippin' on Purple and SpartanDan

B605d9fadbb729437732b674ae5e1501_medium

Dog snout + dog ears + cow udders on face = wildcat FAIL.

After a one-week hiatus, The Only Podcast returns with a vengeance.  Pete and I discuss the highs and lows of the Illinois game, and then talk Northwestern with Rodger Sherman, proprietor (yes, proprietor) of Sippin' on Purple.  Rodger delivers the most depressing prognosis for a 5-1 football team in the history of, like, ever.  So, members of the Schadenfreude Appreciation Society, this one's for you.  We then talk to TOC commenter and contributor extraordinaire SpartanDan, who goes over the current BCS standings and then explains the finer points of his own Bradley-Terry Rankings.  We finish things up by picking this week's Big Ten games.

Total running time is 50 minutes.  We're still not on iTunes, so listen here on the site or download the podcast in mp3 format here.

Just as a quick addendum

Finally remembered who it was that I first saw doing Bradley-Terry rankings for football last year – it was quakk at mgoblog. Credit where it’s due and all.

"Multiplicative Odds Scale"

would be an excellent name for a rock band—a really, really geeky rock band.

Great stuff, but I’m ready for basketball content. Once Nov. 12th hits, these podcasts could go for 90-120 minutes.

I was listening in the background at my desk...

…until I heard Pete say “snuff film”. Boy, that got my attention.
