ROCKIN' THE JEAN SHORTS IN T-TOWN

by Orson on Sep 30, 2005 5:51 PM EDT

We're off to Tuscaloosa bright and early tomorrow to watch a classic midseason "debunking" game between the Gators and the Tide, armed only with a flask and a dream of being a fan of the debunkers, not the debunkees in a matchup of two undefeateds.

We plan on doing everything you're supposed to do in T-Town, including a quick jaunt through the supposedly epic Bear Bryant Museum and adjacent Ray Perkins RV Solid Waste Depository Shunt. We're also going to meet up with Warren St. John, who's understandably nervous about meeting a total stranger jacked on coffee, vodka, and the fight-or-flight adrenaline of a fan stuck behind enemy lines in a pair of jean shorts and a Gator tee. We promise to be gentle.

Stranko got me the ticket, so like the Wonder Twins, we'll link our EDSBS power rings together and cry out "FORM OF...DRUNK HECKLER!" prior to entering the stadium together. And if we're lucky enough to emerge victorious, you can be sure to get pics not only of the game, but also of us twiddling our mustaches in delight. And if we lose, you may very well get pics of us kicking out the back of a Tuscaloosa squad car months later on COPS.

Form of...drunk heckler!

Ha! You guys got rocked. Looks as if the tide secondary is faster than pedestrian, of course with Leak as Qb, they didn’t even need to crawl. The onlty thing you were correct about is that Legion Field is not so rocking… that’s because we play at Bryant Denny you ignorant moron. Too bad you didn’t go to Legion Field and give the two seats to people who know a little more about football. By the way, don’t you gators know by now, that ever since 98, you can’t beat the D at bama!

I’m holding you both responsible for Prothro’s leg. Expect a visit from one of my representatives soon, but remember — it’s not personal, it’s business.

We actually prefer to be known as “brilliant morons,” Keith Sanders.

I don’t know about Sanders, but I think Bama’s D got smoked a few times in 2000, 2001 and 2003. But the one this year is championship-caliber. Florida’s good, but Bama’s better. And the crowd and the D did it today (along with Croyle and [crying] Prothro). I haven’t seen a dominant performance by a Bama D like that since they laid the wood to a guy named Gino Toretta. And a whole bunch of guys from that ’92 D went pro.

geez sanders, i’m all for gloating but give up on the smug jackass fan routine before someone thinks you should be wearing felon orange and living in knoxville.
