Flippin channels yesterday, I checked all the sports channels first. To my surprise, ESPNU had on College Fishing. I kid you not....College Freakin Fishing. I mean, I like fishing....I like college sports....But College Fishing? Get real here. Would anyone here watch such a thing?

Would I watch it? no. But in the dead middle of summer no college sports are currently taking place... they have to show SOMETHING.

At least they weren't replaying a MAC football game from last November again.

THIS, plus I've heard that the PAC 10 stocks their ponds.

Sounds fishy to me

Notre Dame's team refuses to fish in the same pond as everyone else. They want to remain independent. :)

Scholarships, yes but only if you go to the right 'school'...

and yes there are cheerleaders. They are usually waist deep in the water...How do you think the fish get their smell ?

Are agents allowed to have contact with the fishermen while they are still in school?

Nothing wrong with that. Many Fish will work in a hospital. Some will be NURSE Sharks, and others will become Sturgeons. It takes many years to become a top quality Sturgeon !!!
