GOPHERS PLANT FLAG AT MICHIGAN. HO-HUM.
Minnesota is the latest Big Ten team to catch the wave of flaggotry, this time planting their flag at midfield following last Saturday's 23-20. Brian goes large on it in a bushelful of good verified voracity, as well as a great post on Halloween costumes for the college football set. He thinks we're Bill and Ted, though we tend to think of ourselves more as Statler and Waldorf most of the time. If anyone's giving us younger and sexier, we'll take it.

Why do we always blog here?/ I guess we'll never know/It's like some kind of torture/To have to watch Chris Leak run the spread option...

Flag plants at midfield. Yawn. These episodes are approaching the Heisman Trophy as the most overhyped aspect of CFB. Confirmation will be the arrival of FlagPlantPundit to the Blogoshpere…

Come on. You guys are Jimmy Kimmel and Adam Carolla, and you know it.

The Man Show College Football Edition. I like it.

Aaron Taylor should go as Grape Ape. No costume needed.
Here’s an example. He even talks with the side of his mouth.

Waldorf: Nurse! There’s something wrong with this TV!
Statler: What’s that?
Waldorf: It’s on!
Waldorf: The question is, what is a manamana?"
Statler: The question is, who cares?
And of course, my personal favorite:
Statler: Brilliant!
Waldorf: Ah, that was terrible!
Statler: Well, it was good!
Waldorf: No, that was very bad
Statler: Well, it was average.
Waldorf: It was kind of in the middle there.
Statler: It wasn’t that great.
Waldorf: I kind of liked it.
Statler: It was terrible!
Waldorf: I loved it!
Statler: Get ’em off!
Waldorf: More!
Waldorf and Statler…can’t beat ’em.

Of course, before Taylor goes trick or treating, he’ll have to ask Ty Willingham for permission to crawl out of his ass.

For the record, Brian has thinner skin than those tree frogs that are the bellwethers of environmental contamination.
What a friggin’ patsy. I mean, he listens to Sufjan Stevens (“Know how I know you’re gay?”) and disses The New Pornographers. Who rock.

I have an itchy trigger finger when it comes to ND flaming because I don’t want my comment threads to degenerate into flame wars. Since you’ve never provided anything useful when commenting, there’s no reason to keep your tepid insults around. Rest assured that I found your comment to be dull and was not particularly offended.
As for your musical tastes, well, there’s no accounting for them.

And yet…you keep this little gem from a Notre Dame fan:
Michigan football team…dress as ‘The Shadow’,because the Wolverines are a shadow of who they once were predicted to be.

Wow. That’s so clever it hurts. I have a sneaking suspicion that John B. bears an uncanny resemblance to the “Conclusion Mat” guy from Office Space.
Anyway, good luck to the old warrior-kinesiologists this weekend. It’s time for somebody to drain JoPa’s embalming fluid.

We’d get into the musical taste insult fracas, but we think “Mr. Telephone Man” by New Edition rocks, and therefore disqualify ourselves immediately.

Yes, Shane, John’s comment is allowed to stand because
1) John comments semi-regularly and has a track record of being a non-jerk.
2) His statement is objectively true and not a tired attempt to flame about graduation rates. (Check the APR: Michigan football > ND football).
I’m sure you’ll last-word me here and throw in some insanely clever remark about kinesiology whilst simultaneously pretending that Notre Dame is some sort of beacon of academic integrity unmatched nationwide. Go ahead; you’re an ND fan. It’s in your nature.

Let’s get back to the “Man Show” thing.
At the end of every episode, will Orson and Stranko introduce S.E.C. co-eds jumping on trampolines?
by T. Kyle King on Oct 10, 2005 7:53 PM EDT reply actions
No, we have wives. That might get us both shot. Orson will, however, gladly try to down two whole beers in under five seconds like Bill “The Fox” Foster. Our variation on the bit will be us immediately vomiting both beverages onto the nearest lucky audience member.

Good lord, you are a humorless piece of shit. You don’t even recognize a jesting olive branch.
My apologies to the site operators. I won’t clutter your board anymore ribbing Mr. Mgo.

Please don’t tell me that you guys find stuff like that lame costume post to be funny. “Tyrone Prothro Suggested Costume: His ankle.” is such a barrel of fucking laughs. The really funny posts there are the pictures with red lines drawn through them or the whiny stuff about flags being planted. I mean, if you guys are gonna take the time out from here to visit a whiny Michigan blog, you gotta read the good stuff.
Hey Brian did you read Darrin Walls’ comments about the value he placed on Graduation Rates?
An illustration of the essential difference between whiny Michigan fans and those of any other school:
EDSBS: Concerned that their new coach is properely using the talents of their quarterback.
mgoblog: Throwing their own players under the bus 24/7. “Hennebrain!” What a crack up you are, Brian! OMG!

Brian, you must be hitting the big time, since you’ve got haters up all night envying your ice. Keep flossin’!

Oh Orson, it’s not hate, it’s admiration. The same sort of admiration as displayed when geese fly south for the winter or a rooster crows at dawn.

Speak for yourself. We can’t sleep thinking about DMX. He’s got so much gold! And he’s so hood! And bitches think he’s sexy! Argggghhh…
