www.becomedebtfreeonline.com During the Atlanta auditions, 62-year-old activist General Larry Platt appeared and performed his own original song, "Pants on the Ground." Platt was ineligible to continue, due to being well over the show's age limit of 28-years-old. His performance has since become a viral hit, and several celebrities performed the song in the days that followed the original airing of his audition. This included late night talk show host Jimmy Fallon, who performed the song while also impersonating Neil Young on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. NFL quarterback Brett Favre was also caught leading the Minnesota Vikings in a performance of the song in their locker room following their game against the Dallas Cowboys in the 2010 NFL playoffs. Today Show hosts Meredith Viera, Matt Lauer, Al Roker and Ann Curry also organized a performance of the song. Platt himself also made an appearance on abc's The View on January 18, 2010, performing the song in its entirety. Platt was not an actual Army General, but rather a civil rights activist in Atlanta. The nickname "General" was given to him by Hosea Williams because of his heroic efforts on behalf of the civil rights movement. In fact, the Georgia General Assembly designated September 4, 2001, as, "Larry Platt Day", for his, "priceless and immeasurable contributions to society", as well as, "his great energy and commitment to equality and the protection of the innocent and for his outstanding service to the Atlanta community and the citizens of Georgia." During his audition, Platt wore a pin in support of Troy Anthony Davis.

The biggest, scariest, and craziest football hits i could find. most of them are from college football.
This is a reenactment of the Virginia Tech-uconn 2001 game, when I as a true freshmen saw action for the 1st time, threw my 1st and only Division 1A touchdown, kicked an extra point and kicked off in the same series. Since I am not allowed to air the actual footage of that game, I had to reenact it to the finest detail. I hope you all enjoy!

From gamblerstelevision.com College Football International Bowl Buffalo Bulls versus Connecticut Huskies (-4.5) January 3rd (12PM ET) (ESPN2) Buffalo was the unlikely winner of the MAC Championship and plays UCONN in Toronto for the International Bowl. The Bulls beat Ball St a 12-0 team during the MAC title game by dominating the second half of that ball game. UCONN lost 5 of their last 7 games and ended the season 5th in the Big East. UCONN has struggled big time at the quarterback position as Tyler Lorenzen and Zach Frazier combined for 4 touchdowns and 14 interceptions. The Bulls have a good offense that averaged 31 points and 380 yards per game. They are also a perfect 7-0 against the spread as an underdog this season. UCONN did beat Cincinnati at home but quarterback Tony Pike was rusty and it was his first game back off an injury. You have to respect Buffalos last performance against Ball and they are the right side in this contest over the Huskies. Take Buffalo +4 ½. Selection Buffalo +4 ½.
From gamblerstelevision.com College Football Eagle Bank Bowl Wake Forest Demon Deacons versus Navy Midshipmen Saturday December 20th (11AM ET) (ESPN) These teams have met the past two seasons with each team winning. So its the third meeting in 2 seasons. Navy has faced some weak competition the past few months while Wake Forest has been tested against the good defensives from the ACC. Navy really struggled a few week back against Notre Dame being thoroughly dominated by the Irish for most of the game. Wake Forest junior quarterback Riley Skinner has down on his interceptions this season in his third season behind center. Skinner passed for 268 yards last season in the Demon Deacons bowl win against UCONN. Two seasons ago Skinner passed for 271 yards on 21 against Louisville in the Orange Bowl. Behind Skinner and the Demon Deacons stout defense they are the right side here. Take Wake Forest 3. Selection: Wake Forest -3
From gamblerstelevision.com College Football Saturday Pittsburgh Panthers at UCONN Huskies (-2.5) (12PM ET) (ESPN) Its worth noting that Pittsburgh just came off an emotional victory the week before over rival West Virginia. The Big East is already won by Cincinnati and Pittsburgh at 8 wins is comfortably in a bowl game with not much riding here. UCONN always plays good football at home and defends the run pretty good. UCONN senior quarterback Tyler Lorenzon is in his third game back from injury and had a good game last year against the Panthers in a 34-14 victory. UCONN held Pitt star running back lesean mccoy to just 70 yards in 11 carries last season. UCONN has an impressive 40-16 victory at home over Big East champion Cincinnati and is back home after 2 straight road games. UCONN home in December is a pretty good bet in this one over a Pittsburgh defense that is set for a letdown in this road contest after an all out effort last week against rival West Virginia. Take UCONN 2 ½. Selection UCONN 2 1/2
USF quarterback Matt Grothe talks about the Bulls' 17-13 victory over uconn on Sunday (11/23)
From gamblerstelevision.com College Football Saturday Cincinnati Bearcats at UCONN Huskies (+1) (9AM PT) (ESPN Gameplan) Cincinnatis run defense is outstanding as they give up only 2.9 yards per attempt and 94 yards per game. The Bearcats are also coming off 4 straight wins where they have allowed a mere 55 points combined. Thats good football. Cincinnati is coming off a bye and Tony Pike returns as quarterback. The Junior QB is hitting on 67% of his passes with 6 tds and 1 interception in 4 games. UCONN is about running the football and that plays right into the strength of Cincinnati. UCONN is 1 dimensional while Pike will make big plays for the Bearcats in the passing game. Take the 5-1 Cincinnati Bearcats 1. Selection Cincinnati -1
