CONGRATS, GATOR B-BALL

GOING ALL THE WAY BABY GO GATORS!

i’ve even restarted a NCAA 2006 team renaming the players. Green is my QB, horford is the RB, Richard the FB, Moss the TE, with Brewer and Humphrey the WRs.

noah is Baker, since he’s the tallest WR.

If I have to watch Noah make that stupid face for two more games…well that just sucks.

Noah definitely gets a vote for the All-Ugly team. He looks like he would be the off-spring of Condoleeza Rice and a baboon.

I thought Noah was Spanish from Old School.

Geez Orson you finally gave into covering bas-ket-ball. Didn’t you sign a code of ethics swearing that you’ll only cover football? Granted it’s for your Gators but still. Forshame.

With all the stories of formr child stars gone bad, I’m glad to see Eddie Munster beating the odds and coaching the flagators into the final 4…

old line, but I have a friend who is a rabid Vandy fan/notorious heckler who insists he’s the one who started the whole “Billy Donovan-Eddie Munster” separated at birth story.

It’s amazing that Noah’s mother was a former Miss Sweden and came in like, fifth place in Miss Universe. That is one unattractive human being.

Orson, we should be celebrating the Gators for pounding the Wisconsin-Milwaukee team, the mid-majors’ answer to the Purdue football team in terms of entitlement.

To wit, check out this story on the UW-M team’s off-campus digs, from a recent edition of The Washington Post:

“It would only make sense for us to live in a place called the White House,” senior guard Chris Hill said. “Because right now, man, us seniors are basically running the whole school.”

Way to go, guys. Glad your tourney days were fun, and say hi to Laverne and Shirley for me as you spend the next 40 years of your life working at the Miller brewery.

Congrats Gators!! I like it because it lets the SEC rub the proverbial nose of the national media in the mud since they love the ACC and Big East so much.

I don’t get the whole tournament thing at all. It would have been so much more exciting if the media and coaches would have simply voted at the end of the season. Then we could have had Duke as our National Champions and avoided all of this “let’s decide who’s the best on the field [court] of play” nonsense.

Everytime I watch Florida play, I marvel at the skill of that ugly chick. She can jump, man. I know ESPN was hyping the hell out of those two “dunk” that Tennessee chick attempted. But this Noah chick should really be getting more press. She’s amazing!!! And playing with dudes, to boot!!!

Well, Papa Noah, while peerlessly charismatic, is freaky looking. Personally, I have a bit of a crush on Joakim – if you look really closely, you can see the “pretty” features and dang the kid is talented.

I was wondering when y’all were going to at least acknowledge your team.

It’s too bad that they have to go up against the Cinderella who broke the glass slipper – but I’ll be (even if quietly) rooting for them.

I completely concur about your assessment regarding this “playoff” system – from what I understand no one enjoys any “regular” season games or “other” post season play – thank goodness they’ve preserved the excitement of the Youngstown State football game!

yeah. i got love for noah. i think he’s quite hot, in the pretty boy kind of way. he has very delicate features. i’d like to see him and johnny weir in a “freakish hot”-off.

Do we really want to see North Texas knock out Southern Cal in a CFB playoff? Nahhhh.

When I look closely at Joakim Noah, all I see is that inexplicably awful set of chompers he has. I mean, his daddy won the French Open — couldn’t he afford braces for his son?

Apparently his Daddy also taught him to whine like a bitch at every call that doesn’t go his way. Seriously, this guy is painful to watch.

I know it’s been a while since I left a comment, but I simply had to stop by to see what you guys were saying about the Gators.

I think they’ve got a real chance. George Mason’s gotta get tired at some point, right? And we know Florida can match up against LSU. The only X factor is UCLA.

And if you’re interested – I’ve posted a little something about Joakim Noah today: http://www.thechurning.com/?p=537

Will check it out, JJ. Good to hear from you.

OK, let’s get the smack rolling -

Joakim is a not-so-pretty boy, but Big Baby wants another chance to turn him into his own Ned Beatty lookalike. It also seems that USC (the Trojans, not the Cocks)(now that I see that together there has to be some serious wordplay capability fit for Orson & Stranko)are preparing to claim the NCAA Basketball National Championship, even though they are not playing in the championship game.

With the human fly swatter in gear (Tyrus Thomas), and a couple of other guys, UCLA needs to be in legendary form. Forget the Great Red Headed One, they need the Intense Bespectacled One at courtside.

Oh, and did I mention the ladies? Forgetful me. Seimone is after a national championship like a hungry dog after a pork chop.

But I do have to admit, I don’t get the Sylvia Fowles fashion statement: the upside-down swoosh on her headband. Is Phil Knight in distress?

BTW – how much did you have to pay one of the players whose dad put on the LSU uniform once? Supposedly he left town for a better deal with the ‘Canes. But then again, the kid had Michael Irvin as a role model…… He’s done quite well in spite of that.

Here’s an interesting news item for you… MSNBC says Billy D has a lot riding on this Final Four – Can you say “legacy?”

Phil K, you need to STFU. Noah plays the game the right way and is all about winning for the team. So he lets his emotions out on the court. Big freakin deal. You’re probably against endzone celebrations as well. Bah humbug!

Everyone relax. Mr. Noah looks like Snaggletooth because some Tennessee henchman knocked a front tooth or two out during a scrum in Gainesville. Besides, who doesn’t like a ponytailed, world-worn playa who says, with a straight face, “The Gator Boys are hot right now!” There’s enough joy and ambiguity in that statement to make ACRs and the Campus Pride Union happy. See? Happiness for everyone.

Hey Ahab, still got all my doobage? U R so rite

“Do we really want to see North Texas knock out Southern Cal in a CFB playoff?”

I for one would be down with that. Of course, you could substitute about 115 other teams in I-A there for North Texas and I’d give you the same answer. (And I’m one of those weirdos who doesn’t want a playoff… but watching the Trojans get laid out by a mid-major would be worth it, although that sort of upset simply doesn’t happen in college football.)

Noah = Snaggletooth pac man on weed.

I am fugly.

joakim noah is adorable. and spirited.
