Florida's crystal Ball (BCS trophy) fell and broke

That's unbelievable! Maybe Tim-may Tebow can fly around the earth so fast that he goes back in time and prevent this catastrophe. I saw his dad do it in a movie once. :wink:

Oh, and btw, looks like Urban Meyer invented broken national championship trophies as well.

UF Mystery Solved .... Recruit breaks trophy

While in Gainesville competing in a Nike training camp, Charles said he and another prep player were touring the football stadium. That's where the BCS trophy, along with Gators quarterback Tim Tebow's Heisman Trophy, were on display. While leaning over to take a photo of the Heisman, the 6-foot-3, 225-pound Charles said he bumped into the BCS trophy - he thinks with his backside - and knocked it to the ground.

"If you were outside the stadium, it was so loud, I think you would've heard it shatter," Charles said. "Nobody said anything for 10 minutes, then Florida assistant Coach John Hevesy said, 'What do I do? Who do I call? Did you know that was $35,000!'

"I just stood there with this baby look and said, 'Sorry.' Then he joked and said, 'You've got to commit to Florida now.'"

Not sure why the trophy was in the position to be broken in the first place. Normally, these things are kept behind glass.
