SEC's Cheer Squad: Bubba And Carville

Bill Clinton is not only spanning the world to campaign for AIDS relief and hitting the stump for Hillary. Now he'll be popping up in front of sports junkies.

The Southeastern Conference, home to Bubba's favorite team, the University of Arkansas Razorbacks (he went to Georgetown and Yale, but some ties run deeper), is kicking off a 75th-anniversary bash later this month.

Over the next year, the SEC will run spots on CBS and ESPN celebrating a student-athlete at each of the 12 conference colleges. The Arkansas tale will be narrated by the former president.

Chipping in for his own alma mater, Louisiana State University, will be Clinton's pal James Carville.

There are a few open slots. Any GOP takers?
