Same Guy Runs Both BCS AND Rock Hall Of Fame!

Authorities confirmed today that just one person oversees both the Bowl Championship Series (BCS) for college football and the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. The man (above), whose identity is being withheld pending further notification of next of kin, granted this reporter a brief interview before his deposition with the state mental health board. For our purposes, we'll just refer to him as "Massa Z."

Me: So why give Bama another chance to beat LSU after they blew it at home the first time?

MZ: Well, I've never been to England. But I've been to Oklahoma. They tell me I was born there.

Me: OK, but that doesn't explain--

MZ: Oh Alabama...banjos playing...and the skies are so blue.

Me: And why would you vote Stanford ahead of Oklahoma State if you're from there?

MZ: I heard Palo Alto means "Trust In Nick Saban." So, as I do every day, I followed his lead.

Me: Makes sense to you. Coupla quick questions about the rock hall of fame..

MZ: Shouldn't you capitalize Rock Hall Of Fame?

Me: No. Especially when you voted in Guns & Roses for basically one great album.

MZ: You didn't like The Spaghetti Incident? Who doesn't like pasta? Or Chuck Manson?

Me: You left out many more deserving artists & groups.

MZ: Name ten.

Me: Rush, Chicago, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Deep Purple, Yes, Moody Blues, Hall & Oates, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Todd Rundgren and Steve Miller for openers.

MZ: Rush is an oxycontin-poppin' pinhead. Time's up--gotta go find my Grammy ballot. Gabba gabba hey!
