The Sgt. Schultz Defense

What do you find less credible: 1) Floyd Landis' claim that he did not cheat to win the Tour de France; or 2) Oklahoma football coach Bob Stoops' claim that he was shocked, shocked to learn that starting quarterback Rhett Bomar had a high pay, little work job at a car dealer?

As you can tell from my phrasing of the question, while I don't believe Landis, I find Stoops' assertion laughable. As this story notes, Bomar isn't even the first Sooner star to benefit from knowing the good folks at Big Red Sports and Imports (although new ownership claims the car dealer's relationship with athletes has ended).

Such is life in college athletics.
