Around SBN: Are The Orioles Bad Or Unlucky With Their Young Pitching?

BLOGTOBERFEST! HEIZMAN EDITION.

The foinest of the foin, brought you by an RSS reader and some prescription stimulants. Autobots, roll out!

--Every Day Should Be Lemsday. Go to it. Now. An excerpt from the goods if you don't believe us:

Aw de bowgame comrawndhea. Owe Miss aintinna bowgame! ORGERAWANNABOWGAME! Bamainnabowgame, Tennseeinnabowgame, evin Kentkainnabowgame! Isa putta rebah innabowgame! Wepla ennawar. Shrepor, Jackvul, Canta, youname! Rebah manah ha agresaysen, butrebah travrewel! Brindamanah! Brindafan! Ow Miss Rebah fillyostadum ritup!

Gicotchogeonachan, or hecommaritroun anstrinyawup!

It's the greatest thing since Chewbacca's website. Gigantic accolades to Brian and Trev and the boys for rigging up something that truly defies description.


Datratdeyer izzahelluvawebsayyyyeeet. YallhavahappeeLEMSDAY!!!

--In other bayou-ish news: Tulane, fresh from what Tony Barnhardt called a "scandalous" firing of Chris Scelfo, hires retread Bob Toledo as coach. Scelfo was the coach who juggled chainsaws in getting Tulane's football team through Katrina despite lacking facilities, a field, and proper funding for substitutes. Karma points surely give him a nice bonus on whatever the next roll of life's 20-sided die brings.

--House of Heat brings us a comprehensive guide to surviving the wilds of Glendale, Arizona. They're also quite cautious but also optimistic on Arizona State's hiring of slut/genius Dennis Erickson as their coach for the next two years. (max)

--We missed the inimitable Clay Travis post-game at the SEC championship game, but we hope that's understandable since the Nutt/Meyer trickfest left us too weak to speak coherently. Clay shares his lessons learned from his season-long swing around the SEC, including this canny observation about the benefits of publicly-subsidized Georgia educations:

. University of Georgia girls have bigger breasts thanks to the Hope Scholarship. With other southern states like Tennessee and South Carolina adopting lottery-funded scholarships, I expect this trend to spread even faster.

Take that, Harvard!

--Adrian Peterson, playing in la Fiesta Bowl. We're not sure we can really advocate this, since given his long history of freak injuries and bad timing, a smiting at the gun just as AP extends his arm into the endzone for the winning score might be inevitable.

--Urban Meyer's counting to 10 before he answers questions that make him mad. He's also getting all postmodern and ironic with us:

"See, I’ve learned. I made comments in this room before (that were criticized). Watch how mature I am. You’re going to hear a lot of nonsense out of my mouth from here on out. … I’m going to start talking like a lot of these other coaches. … I think we’re going to take it one game at a time. We’re going to play very hard. Ohio State’s got great players. How’s that?"

Sounds like Jim Tressel, actually.

--Speaking of Sir Sweatervest...Buckeye Commentary has graphs of Smith's landslide of the Heisman award leading up to the voting. The actual voting looked like Haitian election results with Troy Smith playing the part of the well-armed strongman.

--Dem Heizman Boyz: Another reason why living in the South is like awesomeness cubed. Actually, at any point in the Southeast spontaneous, coordinated, and oddly goofy dancing can break out at any point, though never without the participation of at least one black person. The only exception to this is the electric slide; otherwise, white people in large groups, like programmed Sims, just start playing horseshoes happily.

Brian's got his videos, but we're partial to this Florida-themed variation we found on Youtube. You know it's college--check the lamp in the background and the blinds. We know this because we can still smell the odor of a tremendous spider falling to its fiery death against the bulb in a dingy Gainesville apartment.

Coachspeak makes me sad, sir. I greatly prefer it when coaches tell it like it is, and by that I don’t mean Ed Orgeron.

From the Lemsday site:

“EDSBS: A bunch of dumbass Florida fans’ answer to EDSBL.”

I just about fell off my chair laughing.

From Clay Travis’ SEC tour:

18. LSU fans do not smell like corndogs. Also, this insult derives from the Big 12. After diligent research, I was able to trace it down to a message board referring to Oklahoma State fans circa 2001. This is a shame. It seems to have derived from an original allegation that Oklahoma State fans were carnies (people who travel around with carnivals, traveling circuses or state fairs). Since people at these events eat lots of corndogs, the greatest college football insult of all time was born here. Then, Auburn fans appropriated it to their own devices. It’s really sad for me to have to report this, but, as always, I ask the hard questions and report the unpopular answers.

TCOAN, I didn’t even know we had that in there. Fair play to Brian, I guess.

Give him admin power, hilarity ensues.

Please note that Colonel Reb is crying in the first post.

You guys rule. I wanted to post a comment there but my blogger and gmail accounts contain hints at my super-secret real identity and I’m too lazy to make another one.

i had the “opportunity” to go to a cardinals game in glendale this weekend. goddmanit thats a terrible place, its in the middle of nowhere and the comment about strip malls is so very true. fans will be begging for the fiesta bowl to be moved back to sun devil stadium after this year.

in closing, Peezeonnert anna goodwahtowahmen!

God help me, I read the entirety of EDSBL, and I understood everything Coach O was saying.

Does that make me fluent in Obonics?
