KICKING OFF EARLY: WEEKEND NOTES.

Strange, I thought I heard that same song being played last night in Blacksburg during the Clemson game.

With Orson leaving early for the weekend, does that mean we can cue Stranko to fill the void with ’cake?

Is this a pro-Gator video? Based on the play beginning at the 4:48 mark, I’m not so sure.

If things go a little south tomorrow, I’m going to sit down and watch this again, just to re-center myself.

My present to you.

Have a good weekend. I get to watch yawyawyawyawyaw Brent Schaeffer this weekend.

HAAAAA! That’s pretty funny, Tiger. Great work.

Thankfully Work Blocks U-Tube.

NewAZTiger When did Spurrier get his tips frosted?
Like the picture though

OMG. Notice the Evil Genius looking at the Hutt? He’s been thinking of how to get Syvelle Newton some more of those nifty shotgun scrambles he’s so good at. I mean — shit, if Auburn’s D laid down to Newton in the fourth quarter, Tennessee doesn’t have a chance if Spurrier starts out the game with that.

Well, that, and he owns Fulmer’s sorry ass.

enjoy the video when you can boys. Youtube is taking down every video in sight won’t be long before this one gets the axe.

Nice job by the YouTube creators to close the $1.6B deal with Google before all of the networks went batsh!t with the copywrite infringement lawsuit threats.

Four words, Orson:

“There goes Lindsay Scott!”

We can’t hear you. We have David Greene’s unfulfilled greatness stuck in our ear.

Touche!

God how I hate you.

Just kidding – although you guys are a bunch a filthy bottom feeding reptiles, you are pretty damn funny.

BTW – shouldn’t Tuberville’s ears be poking out of that headset? I mean, you have seen them, right? It’s not like you could really miss them.

as they would say on nhl hits 2003, “novacane time”

as someone once said… “and the Gods will make proud and allow you to make a YouTube video just before they hand you the most humiliating defeat your team has ever suffered”

or something like that

be careful meester sweendle

yeah, remember just recently you had Tebow storming in on Jordan-Haire. If the inthinkable happens today, Orson, no more videos/pics of Gator domination the day before the game and to top it off: no soup for you!

Gameday just started and I’ve already seen the best sign of the day: “Steve Spurrier Pisses Excellence.” Wow.

Corso Wears a Merkin?

Is this something that the kids are bringing back?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merkin

What about “Corso is Game 4 Cock?”

Wait a minute, who is El Diablo? Lee Corso or W? Then there is USC and USC. And then at the end of the show, a rat gnaws on the old mans head? I should drink less.

Spurrier pisses excellence but not at SC. That group may pull off a few upsets but they’ll never be consistent. They are the Cubs of college football.

“wipes sweat off brow” If we ever put together a whole game, we’ll be good. Until then we’re 7-1 and in the title hunt.

15-2. ’nough said. let the fans in red & black begin their whining… again…
Go Gators!

I had to set my alarm for seven to be up in time for GameDay, and I might be wrong, but….was that a Corso puppet on a stick in the background? In a BALL GOWN??

You know, I was going to go to GameDay — then my friend and I got hammered and didn’t get in until 5 a.m. These things happen in Columbia — when we left Five Points at 4:30, the place was still packed. I love this town.

14 offensive points vs. Georgia? TN put up 50. Vanderbilt doubled your output. Hell, Colorado put up 13.

Florida is a fucking joke.

So is your FUCKING cocktail party, you bunch of dirty dirty souf mother fockers.

[THUD]

I believe that was the zombie’s head.

“Fear and Loathing in Five Points”

Sounds like a good read, as long as you include pictures. Nekkid lady pictures, that is.

John, I’m not sure you can insult a party when you’re posting online at 11:15 on a Sat. night.

I don’t have nekkid lady pictures, but I do have video of Corso leaving the bathroom at Williams-Brice and two vids of my friend dressed as the “Liberal Media” with a clown nose on. Good times.

Hey John, unless you backing OSU you can’t say shit to us about our “O”, similarily you can’t talk smack about our “D” unless your backing Michigan.

That said, our offense was a bit off, bu perhaps that’s because Leak was concuussed and Meyer for some reason hates the deep ball.

Anyone see the large-ish article on the front sports page of the NY Times today? To sum up, since registration is required to view the online article: discussing the moves Congress is contemplating against the NCAA and the shift from a ‘non-profit’ to ‘for-profit’. In itself, nothing new. However, the use of the Florida Gators’ trip to Jacksonville, and stay at the Sawgrass Resort Complex, was a new addition to the motif. The article also mentioned how much UF pays its current basketball and football coaches, in addition to the severance salary for [NAME REDACTED]. Finally, it draws attention to the pivotal role Florida Bull Gators – ‘the grand poobahs’ (actual quote, no shit) – play in supporting the football program.

The NYT also piles onto a couple other southern schools, notably Texas and Georgia, and completely misses the vital role athletics in the south play in funding academics and overall campus improvements. Normally I’d pass this off as simple Yankee arrogance and being ill-informed about things, but perchance they are onto something. Though using UF as a technes is bothersome and somewhat embarassing.

Something they always fail to mention in those diatribes against Southern football is how the teams support women’s athletics — eg. would the highly-competitive softball and gymnastics programs at Alabama exist if it weren’t for the shitloads of money that football brings in? I imagine the same goes for most schools with big football programs.

I would imagine the same, Hack, and wonder if these are the sorts of examples the NCAA – and the large football schools that will be targeted – will trot out in front of the investigations.

Hack,
Title IX has destroyed men’s sports at a lot of schools.
At Iowa State, they cut men’s baseball and swimming/diving in my freshman year. There are now only 6 men’s sports left (basketball, football, cross country, golf, track, and wrestling), compared with 10 women’s sports.

Football and basketball don’t bring in as much money at schools that don’t have great programs, but they eat up a large percentage of the budget. The minor men’s sports are the ones that get screwed.

Title IX is a good thing, and it’s helped women’s sports in an incredible way, but it needs to be revised to allow a greater diversity of men’s sports.

Bama may bring in shitloads of money from football, but most of that goes to stadium and facility improvements, travel, exorbitant coaching salaries, etc. Ideally we’d bring in the same shitloads of money, but cut the ‘arms race’ spending on football and use more of it to support minor sports, clubs, and academics.

I think that’s more a Title IX issue (can you imagine the bad-ass men’s soccer team UF could field if allowed by law?) than a NCAA/big football program expenditures issue. Though I recognize the point and problem, double j.

I shouldn’t have brought up Title IX…that’s another issue entirely. But I like the characterization of football budgets as an arms race. When Kirk Ferentz got his huge raise recently Iowa State gave McCarney a raise/extension for no reason other than to keep up with Iowa.

ISU’s got relatively poor facilities compared to the other Big XII programs, and the conference is pressuring them into throwing money into new facilities. They’re horseshoeing the stadium when we can’t even fill it as is.

Hilton Coliseum is getting millions of dollars in renovations, too…it’s already a great place to watch a college basketball game, and I don’t understand why they have to do that.

Personally I like the Taco Mac in Tucker, just because of friends and family in that area. I’d also suggest that you check out the Brick Store in downtown Decatur. Thats some good beer.
