This week's thought of the week is inspiring.
Oh, yeah
Life is bad
Gloom and misery everywhere
Stormy weather, stormy weather
And I just can get my poor self together
Oh, I'm weary all of the time
The time, so weary all of the time
Stormy weather, stormy weather
Etta James had a song called "stormy weather."
At Bottom 10 Headquarters, located in a hidden room behind the cabinet where Marty Smith keeps all of his cornhole awards, we often spend our Novembers locked ourselves into a secret room to protect ourselves from the bad weather that rolls into the final month of the season.
As we write this, the East Coast is watching Tropical Storm Nicole as it rolls through the homeland of the Hometown Lenders Bahamas Bowl with an eye on dumping rain on the games played throughout the country.
There was a lot of bad weather last weekend. Mother Nature tried to help the Bottom 10 team keep up with the top 10. The man must be a Notre Dame season- ticket holder because he was blowing the passes around. The rehearsals for "Frozen3" were taking place in Montana.

This is the price one must pay to play college football in the deep fall, no matter what the weather is like. If your team is on the list, you already know how bad it is. You have felt this way since the season began.
The following are the post-Week 10 Bottom 10 rankings.
After losing to Temple by 26 points, the Bulls attached a nitrous bottle to their ride back into the top spot and then fired their head coach. There is good news and bad news. There is good news. There is no good news in the state of Florida, but there is some good news in the coveted fifth spot.
The bottom 10 New England Megabowl was formerly known as the UCan't in the Game. UMass fans have started to wear their Bottom 10 emblem as proudly as they do their old Tom Brady jerseys, but they are probably sad that their team lost that game and moved out of the top spot. If they run the table over the last three weeks of the season, they will get back into the top spot. After a trip to Texas A&M, the season ends with a visit from three-WIN Army.
The bad news is that it was a loss. The good news is that it didn't perform.
The "How can we help your postseason awards résumé?" is part of the schedule. They lost to Oregon 49-10) and looked like Bo Jackson. USC will get a statistical boost when they travel to the L.A. coliseum.
The tigers dislike wind. Who was aware? They like to make things happen. Jeff Scott was packing up his office when a man in orange stood outside with a boombox playing a song. He shouted back, "Um, no, I'm not Dabo Swinney." Wait... no... I'm Sabo. The man is Lloyd Dobler. I'm in the covered fifth spot.
How bad is the basketball team? The computers are not good for them. We may have been hacked by a professor from their renowned computer science department.
How bad is Northwestern? I was doing #Bottom10 research and just realized that even our https://t.co/hKTXS4EaQ5 algorithm felt so bad for them that it threw a W from a different school onto its team page out of pity. pic.twitter.com/j9MSmfN6p5

Northern Illinois was defeated by another 3-6 team. It faces a 3-6 Western Michigan. In Week 7 they beat Eastern Not Western or Central Michigan, and in the season opener they beat Eastern Not Western or Central. This all feels like a big march over the map to get to the Pillow Fight of the Year of the Century of the Year.
There will be a fight between Arkansas State and the University of Massachusetts before the Pillow Fight of the Year of the Century of the Year. The Red Wolves have a 92.7% chance of winning the game according to the Ouija board.
Did you know that the big, scary animals used to roam the Earth, decimating enemies and asserting their dominance? Today's smaller, weaker birds are believed to have come from the mighty beasts of the past.
The last spot in this week's rankings was between two teams that have both been at the bottom of the rankings. The nod was given to the Niners because they followed up their win with a loss. The Warriors lost to WKU by a score of 49-17, 10 points better than Charlotte, but they were the only common opponent. Western Kentucky has been promoted to ChairmanPreferred by its airline's frequent flyer program.
There is a waiting list that includes Temple of Doom, No-vada, Colora-duh State, Whew Mexico No-Bos, and the war on grass and goal posts.
