College football Bottom 10 after Week 12: We always have a blast - ESPN

Inspirational thought of the week:

Do you ever feel already buried deep?
Six feet under screams, but no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a chance for you?
'Cause there's a spark in you
You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July

'Cause baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, «Oh, oh, oh»
As you shoot across the sky

— «Firework,» Katy Perry

Here at Bottom 10 Headquarters, located beneath the 6-foot tall pile of pierogi crusts left by the «College GameDay» crew after last week's show in Pittsburgh, we believe that it is important to celebrate all life's victories, whether those triumphs be large or be they small.

Won a national title? Hoist that big gold Eye of Sauron-looking trophy and savor the moment.

Won a Heisman Trophy? Hug that bronze stiff-armed man, load him in the car and drive him around with you to take selfies with people on the street, à la 1980 winner George Rogers.

Kicked a field goal with 6:13 remaining in your inevitable 14th consecutive loss that cut the lead from 45-0 to 45-3? Push the ignition button on a trunk load of fireworks that you've had sitting behind the scoreboard all fall because it's your penultimate home game of the year and New England is about to be shrouded in single-digit temps for the next four months and that TNT is going to become frozen and useless if you don't use it right now because fireworks are expensive and you draw 6,000 people per game (paid attendance) and you can't afford to waste the cash.
