EDSBS LIVE!!! WILL FROM DEADSPIN AND THE BIG LEAD GET FREAKY (metaphorically speaking.)

EDSBS LIVE! EDSBS LIVE! Now with fifty percent more quality content thanks to the gents at Now Live giving us thirty extra minutes. That means you start listening at 7:30 EST now instead of 8:00 EST. Di di mao! Di di mao!

What: EDSBS Radio

When: 7:30 p.m.–9:00 p.m. EST More time! More calls! More sounds of our ice cubes tinkling in our glasses.

Where: On the EDSBS channel at Now Live.

How: To call in? (310) 984-7600. You may also register at Now Live and participate in the live chat, where we’ll be taking comments and working them into the broadcast.

Why: To entice you in a non-threatening way, we have a very special guest tonight on what we’re tentatively calling our Freak Show: the alpha beta male of the very beta-male blogosphere, Will Leitch of Deadspin.com. We will interrogate Will about why anyone would pay attention to Illinois football, the wonders of being on ESPN’s enemies list, and how he avoided being kissed by a randy A.J. Daulerio on what we imagine was a weekly basis.

Also joining us will be The Big Lead, fine sports gossipmeisters in their own right. We will ask them if A.J. Daulerio ever assaulted them, and also test their freak quotient by asking them our illustrious four questions, presented below for all to study:

1. Who’s your favorite sporting freak ever? Priority given to college football types like Hayden Fry or Woody Hayes. However, other answers will be considered.

2. Is it harder to be weird now? Than, say, the era when Lawrence Taylor’s bar-destroying rages wouldn’t end up captured on someone’s camera-phone and on the net in minutes.

3. Who’s the biggest oddball currently in action? Mike Leach, for example.

4. What would your eccentricity be in what sport? In college football, we would down the ball after scoring a td–gently, as one would lay an ostrich egg or ticking bomb on the turf. In golf, we’d strip and dive into the water hazard at the TPC.

See you tonight at 7:30.

MOVE, BITCH: PSU ON VERGE OF SCORING MASSIVE FULMER CUP POINTS?

Run Up the Score reporting that Penn State might have its sights set on dislodging Illinois’ massive lead in the Fulmer Cup. More to follow…


Joe Pa may be on a zombie rampage once this is all over.

FULMER CUP SPECIAL: THE GREY PANTHER STRIKES AGAIN!

Dennis Erickson is the Ol’ Dirty Bastard of coaching: a bon vivant vagabond whose very presence creates a contagion of merry malfeasance. Correction: usually, it’s just malfeasance, and petty stuff for the most part. But like ODB, he just keeps moving on from gig to gig, often trailed by state troopers. Unlike ODB, he’s currently breathing.

Though he’s left the Idaho Vandals in the dust for a better job for the second time in his coaching career, his legacy remains with the Vandals: already tentatively on the board for a tasering incident earlier this year, Idaho scores a second time with a misdemeanor assault charge for safety Jevon Butler. Butler and two other non-football folks were arrested for:

…allegedly punching UI freshman William J. Petersen and Matthew D. Scott numerous times in the face.

Solid, unspectacular but fundamental FC score, there. (HT: Bruce.) Because it’s a misdemeanor, it’s only one point for Idaho, who would undoubtedly be putting bigger digits on the board if the Grey Panther were still pacing the sidelines in Moscow.

Given that he’s at Arizona State, however…it’s only a matter of time before his Golf Cart of Death drives the Sun Devils into the Cup. We’ll take any excuse we can find to post the pic of Dennis Erickson driving a golf cart into a volcano, if only because we want credit for psychic powers when it finally happens.


Bad photoshop. Volcanoes. A guy who likes beer. It all adds up to funny.

YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT HE’S TALKING ABOUT

Congrats to the Florida basketball team, presumably doing it real big in Gainesville. You have no idea what this means, which is what Joakim Noah is telling you here:

Nailing whole seabass to car hoods? Making love to trees? Oh, if Noah’s involved, all that and more.
