Getting old is sad. Just ask fans of Florida State or Penn State or Queen Elizabeth. It's even sadder when the old monarch starts installing his nitwit son in places of importance and the nitwit son calls nothing but hopeful downfield jump balls or starts a war in the Falklands or something. Once the old guy starts the nepotism train, it's all over.South Carolina fans, this is your cue to panic:
South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier said he will turn some of the play calling duties over to Steve Spurrier, Jr., but that he will still be the offensive coordinator.Say it ain't so, Steve! What's next, road rage? Coke-bottle glasses? An unquenchable thirst for the brains of the living?
It's all downhill from here, except for that one year when you're inexplicably good and get to play an ACC team in the Orange Bowl. Which, if you're South Carolina, probably sounds pretty good.

1. It took you two weeks to come up with this? Brilliant.

2. Well, unless you ARE that ACC team in the Orange Bowl. Since Penn State faced Florida State that year, after all.

3. This was literally announced weeks ago. Way to stay on top of the news.
