    USA Today – Nov 21, 2007
    Jason Giambi lyrically laments. Tiger Woods boogies not bogeys. They’re all on stage or at least being parodied on an off-Broadway stage in “Chuckleball” a hilarious and very up-to-date musical revue that spares just about no one in sports. The 90-minute musical at the Snapple Theater which actually is on Broadway in the theater district is the brainchild of Jason Goldstein and Ian Nemser.

    ESPNAt stake: For USC the hope of somehow winning an unprecedented sixth straight Pac-10 title getting to the Rose Bowl for the fourth time in six seasons or maybe landing a BCS bowl for the sixth straight season. For the Sun Devils there's more than that on the line. They could get to a BCS title game along with everything else up for grabs for USC. But like the Trojans the Sun Devils also could fall out of the BCS mix. What to expect: This is a Sun Devils team with a penchant for falling behind trailing 83-36 in first-quarter scoring then turning around for a 306-97 edge the rest of the way including a 68-12 fourth-quarter advantage.
