Pre-season picks are stupid

Take it from a Cal fan - there's absolutely nothing to be taken seriously from pre-season polls, All-American teams, potential Heisman candidates, etc. There isn't even such a thing as being "in the running for the Heisman". You either win it or you don't. So for CBS to call Kentucky's John Wall the preseason player of the year is absurd (and who the goddamned hell is Gary Parrish? That kid should be mowing my lawn fer chrissakes). What's more absurd is that he's even at a major university - the kid is part of John Calipari's mafia of illiterates, but that's beside the point in my diatribe. The kid is decent, but he's 18 years old. Any team who has any balls will just shut-him-down. It can be done. So why even put up these kids of things? CBS has to sell some advertising, but shame on them for doing it on the shoulders of teenagers.
