Colorado fires Dan Hawkins; McCartney to return?????
A freaking phucking promise keeping asshole!!!!

BOULDER, Colo. -- Dan Hawkins was fired as football coach at Colorado three days after the biggest meltdown in school history put a cap on his five failed seasons with the Buffaloes.

Athletic director Mike Bohn promoted longtime assistant Brian Cabral to interim coach for the final three games of the season, beginning Saturday against Iowa State at Folsom Field.


Ubben: Legacy of Losses
Dan Hawkins was fired at Colorado after failing to replicate his foundation of success at Boise State, ESPN.com's David Ubben writes. Blog

Bohn said the search for a new coach would begin immediately.

At 70 years old, former CU coach Bill McCartney has publicly expressed an interest in coaching again and remains a "viable candidate," Bohn said. McCartney led the Buffaloes to their only national title in 1990.

1. Does that crazy religious group that McCartney started still exist??
Soul Searchers or Man Worshipers? Something like that.

5. A little about Promise Keepers and The Road to Jerusalem:
"We will encourage both groups to walk hand in hand in humility and work heart to heart in love, so as to evoke Jewish people worldwide to jealousy causing them to know their Messiah."

8. I like Colorado out of the Big 12
but that title belongs to Georgia Tech. Colorado had like 5 downs to win a game that season as well.

9. Yeah, that fifth down game
essentially handed Colorado the NC, a loss to Missouri would have ended their chances.

McCartney is such a hypocrite. If he's so holy and righteous..why did he refuse to forfeit a game his team really didn't win?
