Today is BlogAid for victims of Hurricane Katrina, a concerted effort on the part of the blogging community to raise funds for disaster relief.
We have to take the tinfoil hat off for a moment and confess that New Orleans is one of our favorite places on the planet: we honeymooned there, we made out with total strangers there, we were even once punched in the face by Stranko there. We owe it all we know about debauchery and good food, and the thought of Central Grocery, Uglesich’s, and Dixie Lanes Rock ‘n Bowl under ten feet of water kills us every time we think about it.
The people who make the best sandwich on the planet and thousands of others need your help.
They need your help. Bad. It’s very Lord of the Flies down there at the moment. Either give to our charity of choice, Episcopal Relief and Development, or choose one from Instapundit’s list of relevant charities. Thanks to CFR for doing the good work of putting this all together for the CFB community.
GIVE, BITCHES, GIVE! If only for the Muffalettas.
We at EDSBS pride ourselves on our subjective objectivity. But today, after reading this, we are in love and not ashamed to say it.
Bears. Cuddles. A coach who says “there’s gonna be ass-kicking” in public. (blush!)
Gas? Expensive. Beer? Cheaper than water in Gainesville, where students are admirably focused on the task at hand and coming loaded for bear for the Wyoming game on Saturday. Or just coming loaded.
ATL Eagle finds some trippy-ass shit in the Boston Globe. The Cavalier, no matter who’s drawing him, always looks that fey, by the way. I had a dream…I had an awesome dream…
Yup, this unfortunately isn’t a joke. ESPN, which has been in a steady decline save for Baseball Tonight and College Gameday (and of course their actual broadcasting of college football), is trying to have College Gameday jump the shark as well. Not only will Desmond Howard be a regular, so will Matt Leinart’s best buddy Nick Lachey. What are they thinking?
We’d rather see Ms. Lachey on Gameday asking Tailgater’s how they can possilby eat the wings of a poor Buffalo before the game.
Back-up quarterback Ben Olsen will not be available for the opener and will be week to week after that following an injury to his trowing hand. This is not to be confused with Drew Olsen, the Bruin’s starter… what are the odds?
Solon, longtime commenter and reader, likes a wager. Actually, he likes to have several rolling at a time, preferably leveraged against the bulk of his student loans, the mortgage, and a shipment of illegal Chinese black bear bile he’s got stashed in a warehouse over in Oakland. We asked him to provide his fellow followers of the mighty lord Gamblor with a thorough rundown of the games each week. He responded with an exhaustive, Phil Steele-jargon laden tome we couldn’t be more impressed with. For entertainment purposes only, of course…
Oh, and in case you don’t think gambling addiction doesn’t have its lighter side, check out the state of Washington’s site for gambling addiction treatment. The kid with the homeless sign is really the coup de grace for us.
Enjoy, and happy wagering.
Greetings all.
Orson and Stranko have been so good as to allow me to write a weekly column this season relating to the “entertainment” aspect of College Football. So, I’ll get on here every week, do my thing, and we’ll see how it goes. (more…)
We know you are still a bit hung over from the Zook years but getting absolutely geeked up thinking about the home opener of the Urban Meyer era in Gainesville. You probably need no help getting psyched…. but if you do CLICK HERE… you’ll thank us later.
UAA gets the Gnomes of Zurich to open their deep vaults for a very good cause.
Spurrier has a very, very long slog at Columbia. Need a reminder? Of course you do: submitted by Newspaper Hack, this is simply too good to keep in the comments section. That’s how we get down, bitch.
At least know that Steve will deal with the situation with the biting wit and humor he’s infamous for (that’s a word meaning “MORE THAN FAMOUS,” Pepe.) Console yourself with a fine sampling of Spurrierisms found here at America’s biggest mid-market goliath, the St. Pete Times.
Football player versus this guy. Athletics dept. 1, Black Tucker Carlson, 0.
