It's the dog days of summer and sports in LA are dragging a bit.

No problem...

Joe and Bombi finally follow up on their promise to deliver to the fans the much-anticipated Jim Tressel Special!

The man who personifies the busted system that is the modern day NCAA has all of his exploits brought to light.

Quoting directly from Sports Illustrated's Pulitzer Prize winning sports writer George Dohrmann's amazing article (with David Epstein), the guys highlight many facts that fans might not know about.

Did you know Jim Tressel allegedly rigged raffles to give prized recruits Ohio State gear?

Did you know that things were so bad at Ohio State, that the Department of Justice repeatedly told the school that there were major problems with their program?

Joe and Bombi know and they're pulling back the curtain.
