Here's Texas coach Mack Brown's retarded stepson trying to blow last night's Holiday Bowl for the Longhorns. The Sun Devils retained possession and scored on the next play, so it's a good thing for Chris Burke here that the Horns won 52-34.

To add to your viewing experience, observe the referee's obvious glee in telling the crowd that the call was overturned.  I love the schadenfreude.

Front and center in the photo here is Lauren Thompson, whom SI on Campus featured as its cheerleader of the week.  And while her gallery proves that she is precisely what any non-porn star ASU cheerleader should be, sometimes it's best not to engage them in conversation. 

2. My favorite class is: Class is class to me, they are kind of all the same.

4. Music I can't live without: Tim McGraw, Taylor Swift, Jacks Mannequin, Neyo, Keith Urban.

20. Describe the worst date you ever went on: No bad dates yet unfortunately!

What?  She's looking for bad dates?!?!?  Honey, you've come to the right place.  With Leather readers can give you everything from casual stalking to a mysterious disappearance that the police never solve.  You ever see The Cell?  That guy's a commenter here.

Cheerleading enthusiast Alex reminded me today that although classes haven't started, the Arizona State cheerleading squad is already preparing for the coming season.

The cheerleaders practice twice a week in the gymnastics training facility, where, this week, the cooling is not working as it should. "They'll all lose about four pounds of water weight during today's practice," said coach Jess Brown Monday… 

Yes… they'll lose "water" weight.  At least if they want to stay on the squad they will.

"Most of our cheerleaders have some gymnastics background and they all have to be in terrific shape," she said. The ASU cheerleaders build human pyramids that stack three people high and climb to the height of a two-story building.

Speaking of stacks of three high people, this seems like a good time to remember the tale of the ASU cheerleader shown here — Courtney Simpson, a typically American story of pluck and business acumen.  She was raised Mormon, but clashed with her parents because of her partying lifestyle.  When they cut her off financially, she had to find work.  And work she did, as this extremely NSFW collection of links attests.  Oh, and she got kicked off the team for filming a porn scene in her ASU cheerleading outfit.  Since it's ASU, they would have been okay with porn, but wearing the cheerleading uniform was too much.
