The Notre Dame non-Fighting Irish and Michigan share the Bitch-Slap-of-the-Week honors after both confirmed they are bottom-of-the-barrel, lower than whale-shit football programs.

The non-Fighting Irish program is at an absolute low after allowing a (2-8) Syracuse team to embarrass them on their home field with a 24-23 win. The underdog Orange actually trailed 23-10 in the fourth quarter before rallying to score and eventually winning the game with an 11-yard pass with 42 seconds remaining.

For the Irish (6-5), losing to an underdog like Syracuse ranked among the worst losses in team history and left coach Charlie Weis with an inexcusable 28-20 record in four seasons.

The Michigan Wolverines and coach Rich Rodriguez rightfully share the honors this week after getting totally dominated, spanked, beat up and bitch-slapped by their rival Ohio State, 42-10 in the most lopsided score of this rivalry game since 1968 when OSU slammed U of M 50-14.

After that game OSU coach Woody Hayes was asked why he went for two with such a ridiculous lead late in the game. His response, “Because I couldn’t go for three.” Now that’s a rivalry!

Charlie Weis, who is also a member of our Fat Bastards Gallery, and Rich Rodriquez, you easily earned this week’s Sports Climax Bitch-Slap-of-the-Week.

In a NCAA match-up that was expected to be a toe-to-toe slug-fest, the Florida Gators annihilated the outmatched Georgia Bulldogs, trouncing their SEC rivals 49-10.

Playing on neutral field, Florida fans began their raucous victory celebration with nearly a quarter left to play, while the Dawgs side of the field looked deserted after a majority of their fans–like Elvis–had left the building.

49-10; true bitch-slap! But what made it the most humiliating bitch-slap in Sports Climax history, were the timeouts called by Florida Coach, Urban Myer with the score totally out of hand and only seconds left on the game clock.

That move by Myer was probably in retaliation to last year’s Bulldog celebration after the Dawgs’ first score in that game that led to both teams clearing the benches and intensifying this rivalry.

Myers promised he was going to do something and kept quiet about it. Cheesy move calling the timeouts . . . yes.

Was the Dawgs’ taunting, rub-it-in-the-Gators-faces celebration in the end zone last year a cheesy move? Yes, but these things will only intensify and fuel this bitter rivalry.

Dawgs, you made our pick as easy as it’s ever been, congratulations, you are our hands-down, runaway, slam-dunk choice for the Sports Climax Bitch-Slap-of-the-Week.
