As Texas Longhorn fans Jenny and I were obviously bummed by the final result of this year's college football season. We've moved on so I won't go into a soapbox rant about how messed up the BCS system is, and how Texas got screwed out of not being in the national championship game. But here's a very funny joke that Jenny found recently about the BCS mess this season.
----
After determining the Big-12 championship game participants the BCS
computers were put to work on other major contests and today the BCS
declared Germany to be the winner of World War II.
"Germany put together an incredible number of victories beginning with
the annexation of Austria and the Sudetenland
and continuing on into conference play with defeats of Poland, France,
Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium and the Netherlands. Their only
losses came against the US and Russia; however considering their
entire body of work--including an incredibly tough Strength of
Schedule--our computers deemed them worthy of the #1 ranking."
Questioned about the #4 ranking of the United States the BCS
commissioner stated "The US only had two major victories--Japan and
Germany. The computer models, unlike humans, aren't influenced by
head-to-head contests--they consider each contest to be only a single,
equally-weighted event."
German Chancellor Adolph Hiter said "Yes, we lost to the US; but we
defeated #2 ranked France in only 6 weeks." Herr Hitler has been
criticized for seeking dramatic victories to earn 'style points' to
enhance Germany's rankings.
