THE WEEKEND THAT WILL BE: SEC CHAMPIONSHIP, EDSBS BARSITTING, AND OUR TOXIC CAKE.
A few notes on the weekend to come:
1. Apologies for the lact of Factor Six Six Factoring. Real life has kept us unfortunately busy. This business would also explain the slow delivery of the Michael Lewis Interview, Part Two, which we’ll go ahead and say will be a feature next Tuesday, since there will be much to review on Monday, especially if Florida wins and we can get our gloat on proper like.
2. If not, we’ll resort to posting happy kitties.
3. EDSBS BARSITTING!!! Come what may, we will be hanging out with the EDSBS Board of Trustees this weekend, including our consigliere Weo Tai, kung fu master of tax law and official Shadowy Figure Of Intrigue coming into town. Come say hello to us and the assorted cast of EDSBS characters at The Brewhouse in Little Five Points, where we’ll be watching the ACC Championship game and “preparing” for the game as of Noon-thirtyish on Saturday.
4. Go. Gators. Beat Arkansas by a point or thirty points–we do not care. We don’t care if it takes a crippling, career-destroying fumble while running out the clock by Casey Dick, or an intercepted option pitch taken back for a 95-yard touchdown. We do not care if it involves making genetically modified humans illegal in the state of Georgia in shady midnight proclamations purchased at great cost from Sonny Perdue, effectively removing Darren McFadden, a.k.a. Humanity Advanced, from the game.
Most of all, turn Chris Leak loose. It’s his last game with any real meaning. Let him pitch until his arm falls off. Let him run the two minute offense for a half. Allow him to craft the coda he so richly deserves, whatever it may be. With no run game to speak of, why not let your senior throw to seniors? (We heard that on the Urban Meyer show in between fits of narcolepsy induced by Meyer’s comments. Perhaps some go-go dancers to lighten things up would help? And that’s a nice tackle by Siler…GROOVY FREAK OUT TIME!)
He’s been the battered mate of the abusive Florida fanbase for four long, hellacious years, taking blame for every half-assed effort, disappointment, and slight hiccup along the way without complaint. (more…)
