THE MEXICAN MENACE DEFIES YOUR LOWEST EXPECTATIONS.

We really can’t believe this–New Mexico, Hank Bosnia, a.k.a. Marcus Vick, arrested for brandishing a handgun during an argument in Suffolk, Virginia.

El Guapo was nothing compared to the real Mexican menace: Senor Marcus Vick!

IRVIN, EX-CANES TO EXERT MORE INFLUENCE ON PROGRAM.

And following on the heels of the Miami bloodletting story, more hilarity from the Miami Herald: Michael Irvin wants to get more involved with the program to bring the U back to national prominence.

Irvin also will seek involvement from Edgerrin James and Santana Moss, among others. ”Imagine the influence they can have,” he said. “We will right the ship.”

Yes…(stroking chin)…we’re already imagining that right now…

UGLINESS AT THE U

Superb article making the rounds on how the heads rolled at Miami, including funny, raw quotes from Art Kehoe, the 25-year Miami veteran O-line coach who’s never played or coached a down for another team. The trigger has no heart, as Ryan Stewart would say.


Has Coker’s Reign of Terror subsided?

WTF AWARDS, PART TWO

What we’re currently listening to: something so terribly hip you’d die if we told you what it was–or Molly Hatchet, we’re actually not sure. In our ongoing review of the events of the 2005 college season, we revisit the most significant What The FuckĀ® moments of the season, including upsets, poor sportsmanship, and outlandish fan behavior.

WTF Upset: Louisville at USF, September 24th. The Big East’s mondo shocker for the year came early: the Bulls swamped Louisville, ranked ninth going into the game in Tampa, and put a brutal halt to the rampant overspeculation in Cardinals stock. Louisville played one of those epochal mathematical outlier games where every play they tried, including outlandish trick passes and reverses, worked to maximum effect, with the key beneficiary being USF wideout Amarri Jackson, who passed and ran for a TD in putting Louisville down 21-0 early in the second quarter. The stage was set for a furious Louisville comeback–in Petrino’s lexicon, 21 points=appetizers and drinks–but a kickoff return and USF drive put the Cardinals in a 38-7 pit they could not overcome in the span of a quarter and a half. The oddities continued as Louisville piled on yards but came up short on converting yards to points.

If you saw this coming, you’re either drunk or from Tampa-perhaps we’re being redundant there…

The game merits mention for a few reasons. First, the Big East’s preseason rep as “Louisville and the Seven Gimps” went down the tubes in a single night at Raymond James; the league would be competitive throughout the season, with USF and West Virginia racing for the title over the ultimately overrated Cardinals. The shocker of all four-fingered shockers: Rutgers, long in incubation under Greg Schiano, caught fire and got bowl eligible behind a defense that led the nation in sacks and a veteran offense. WVU in particular earned credit for running a train up in Georgia in the Sugar Bowl to the tune of 300 plus rushing yards and the best fake punt of the season (more on that in a minute.)

OFFSEASON DISTRACTION: MUTANT LEAGUE LIVES! IN AN UNDEAD SENSE, OF COURSE…

He linked to our post on simulating Reggie Bush; we now return the favor happily thanks to Sumo MoFo’s excellent review of the glories of Mutant League Football, which will introduce you to the luminaries of the game, including coach Ace Bricka, DB Chucky LePuke, and of course, the legendary Bones Jackson.

MORE PLAYERS ANSWER THE SIREN CALL OF THE NFL

UCLA’s sparkplug, Maurice Drew, has announced he’s turning pro . It must be Dorrell’s fault. You can also add the Ohio State cornerback with the great name, Youbo[o]ty, to the list as well.


Oh Sweet NFL, must you try to steal all of our exciting players?

NOW CALLS FOR PATERNO RESIGNATION

Apparently NOW realized Paterno’s a really old, old-school, white guy who may not be up on the most recent PC standards. Hey, what ever happened to calling for an apology first?
