Description: "Anything worth doing, is worth doing right! - With that idealistic thought slung on his shoulder, Jim 'Stahu' Stack, and his companion fan ego, 'Fanny', set forth on a crusade to restore the sport of college football to the spectator realm that it once reigned over, before being rudely snatched away. - Kidnapped, to be cut apart and scrutinized by those who pretend to possess the expertise to determine those teams worthy of ascension to college football's lofty 'championship throne.' - Its dissected parts later to be spoon-fed back to America's football public, who've paid a ransom of again and again being double-talked away from a decisive 'playoff' method of determining the 'King' of college football. Guided by the memory of his army of personal heroes, the author and 'Fanny' lead readers on what some might consider a quixotic trek, through a decade long morass of controversy as relates to college football's championship determination. - Raised in a college town with a couple of years of its formal education; informally educated by 'life' and by a blue collar environment, a semi-retired 'Stahu' tells of his love for family, friends, for the 'good times, ' and for the 'old' university he still remembers."--Www.ultimatetweaker.com.
