FULMER CUP-DATES: UF POINTS GONE.

I mentioned this on Deadspin but it bears repeating -

In regards to the clip of the 4 year old, they showed it on Today this morning and Meredith Viera went into a little speech afterwards about injuries like that being the reason she doesn’t like her kids to get too close to the sidelines during soccer games

Matt Lauer all but laughed in his inability to hide his disgust for soccer and said something to the effect of “soccer doesn’t have 250 pound guys in helmets flying at you”

Lauer ftw – something that will never be uttered again

Thank god his young bones are still fairly pliable because that lil scamp almost got paralyzed. This is equal in dumbness to the Dusty Baker incident. D1 and Pro Athletes would hurt most adults, let alone small children.

My high school football coach would have pulled the kid up by the facemask and asked “are you injured or just hurt?”

he’s a better corner than ray buchanan!

“They should have never given Ronnie Aguilar money! Fuck yo couch, lawya! Black magic mutha fucka!”

+1, Ness

Clearly, this photograph can be pinpointed to no goods from Central Massachusetts or Connecticut, based on the apparel. Note the Hartford Whaler’s logo as well as the “Fitchb[urg]” shirt (a shitty state school in central Mass). Does anyone else have any questions as to why I got the fuck outta there?

Are you sure this CSU couch incident wasn’t really a precursor to some good ol’ couch burnin’ at WVU?

But that hit did look brutal….

Just when you thought Toledo was gonna drop off the list they do something that should take them to the top.

Apparently another running back this time Richard Davis had a dispute with a teammate. He decided to load up a shotgun and handgun and go settle this dispute.

The problem is he somehow got the address confused with an off duty cop and was met at the door with a badge and a gun. Davis was arrested and charged with aggravated burglary

If that dosen’t get them at least a 2 on the list nothing will.

Where the hell were that kids parents? They let their kid run around in the end zone unnattended during a scrimmage? What did they think was going to happen? That kid could have been paralyzed, or worse, killed. And now because of some retarted parents kids won’t be allowed to watch the spring game from the actual sideline, which is a sweet thing to do. Dumbasses.

It starts with accepted bad grammar; it ends with him stealing cars and slinging his seed around like so much confetti before ending up in prison or–heaven forbid–business school.

Having met a few Darden School students enrolled in law school classes here at UVA, I have to agree that b-school is a fate worse than death.

Dude didn’t even make the catch in bounds.

Also agree with Paul M wholeheartedly.

Oh come on, who among us didn’t get head injuries between the ages of 4-7. At least this little shit has a better story than, “I fell on a coffee table playing Batman and Robin” or “I slammed my head onto a railing at a skating rink.”

I mean, imagine being able to say, “Yeah, well in my day you took a shot to the head and took it like a man…but wow it hurted.”

That was Alec Baldwin not taking any more shit from his 12 or 13 year old daughter.

He takes a hit like Brady Quinn. Didn’t anybody else see him crying. I can’t believe this wasn’t said in the first post.

This is my favorite site on the web and I usually find the posts on this site side-splitting hilarious. However, the rip on the 4 year old that was injured is depraved – and in no way humorous even in a juvenile sense.

A 4 year old using improper grammar should not be news – afterall he would have had only a couple of years to begin learning how to speak, let alone how to do it in a grammatically correct way. Unfortunately, it also is not news that many college athletes could not speak or write in a grammatically correct manner if their lives depended on it (despite having had two decades to learn).

Ouch Dept:

1) Kid: The receiver saw the boy and held up as much as he could. Had he not seen the boy, he could have really hurt him. Who is to blame? Like most human psycological damage, the blame goes to good ol’ dad or mom, for not providing any supervision.

2) Business School Smack: B-School is an easy target. But, a law school dude making fun of B-School? That is like Paris Hilton condemning Kim Kardashian of being a slut.

MBA’s hire lawyers, not the other way around. Do not bite the hand that feeds you, legal begal.

bhors-

Show me one picture of Brady Quinn being upset about being hit. Fact is, he just gets up and goes back to the huddle.

It’s just amazing to see all you losers constantly talk about Notre Dame or Brady Quinn in every Article. It always comes back to CW, BQ or ND or even Zibby….You guys need to get over your Irish Envy…..It’s not our fault you were not smart enough to get into ND and get a good education….

It’s funny and sad ref all the obsession with the Golden Dome. You guys are all such losers !!!!! But I always like to read about what you sh*tbags have to say about ND.

It started as a chuckle, maybe a giggle. And then it moved into full blown laughter, ending with a couple of good, solid, from the belly guffaws.

I thank you, cuss.

Cuss:

Man, you get the “Mouse that Roared” award of the day.

Grow a pair and stop whining like a little Rosie O’Donnell.

1. is either really sad or diabolically well-played.

wow. couple of folks have their tight panties on today!

and, to the girls and guys who are into women’s underwear, but who don’t get all upset over shit, i apologize for the gendered language.

#18: don’t you have something better to do than waste our time with your delusional rants? Oh yeah, I was accepted into Harvard, but turned it down when I realized not all girls are tanned and friendly, not all football games are fun to go to, and not all places are an hour from 80 degree weather and 75 degree water. Have fun getting handjobs into your mid-twenties.. douche

#18… you’re just pure, unintentional comedy. I love it.

! ! ! ! !

How about the broad off to the left taking pictures?

Hmmm, let me see. This little kid just got run over, so what should I do? Should I help the little guy, or should I keep taking pictures? Fuck the little kid, he’s not mine, and I’ve got to get the best pics I can. Afterall, it’s Colorado State football.

Aint no snitches in Gainsville!

@ 18:
I’m sorry, I’m American. I don’t get irony/English humor.

ND1990—you really don’t think we’re serious, do you? Because we’re not. Ever. And if we are, we post flashing incandescent warnings of impending seriousness.

We would also like to clarify that we do not speak for Strunk and White, as evidenced by endless modifiers and poorly built sentences all over this site.

SKLM—we have been to neither B-school or law school. That’s just for the record. It’s just that every single friend of our has. We have a JD by osmosis.

I just like ragging on ND cuz they’ve proven nothing since, well, 1993 and anytime we say anything about playing the academies, Fatass Charlie, or 0-9 in bowl games, or not beating a top 25 team in 3 years, you all get your panties in a bind. I take shots at them because of all the people that have ZERO affiliation with the school (not Irish, Catholic, from Indiana, or went there) that all of a sudden are the #1 fan of a school that they don’t know when their last championship was. I’m Irish, Catholic, and live 2.5 hours away, but I hate ND because of the above reasons (and I woulda got in). Now, people rag on my Buckeyes all the time (and yes, I went there), but its all in good ribbing. Maybe if you NDomers would have proven something in the last 15 years, you wouldn’t have to be so uptight about these things. 0-9 in the last 9 bowls, your gonna hear this until you start winning something. Just like Maurice Clarett will never die, and tOSU’s “low academic standards” or whatever else you wanna bring up, its all fair game.

1) Feel sad for the boy and his parents, but glad to see he’s okay. Let’s not get on him about his bad grammar. I would have bad grammar too after getting hit like that.

2) That puking photo is disgusting and yet I can’t stop looking at it. It’s like watching a car crash in slow mo.

3) Business schools are mostly useless, unless you’re going to one of the top 10 or 20. Otherwise, get a job in the mail room and network your way up. Or sleep your way up. That works too sometimes.

F’ing kids from ND, Villanova and Georgetown (Big-east basketball fans will get why the last two are included). Not everyone that didn’t go to your school couldn’t get in.

Some people just didn’t want to pay five times the cash to get the same education while attending a school full of ugly chicks and douchebags. Go pop your fucking collar and shut the fuck up for once. Nothing worse than elitist virgins.

I’m familiar with both SKLM’s output hereabouts and Chuck’s work in numerous places, and the comparision would suggest that Orson has a point.

Then again, I’ve been to BOTH law school and B-school, with a degree in government thrown in for good measure, and likely now need a trip to divinity school to have any shot of avoiding purgatory (or South Bend, for that matter).

+ Five Jillion, Dave K. And this comes from someone with a graduate degree from ’Nova. What a bunch of handjobs.

Smart enough to get into ND? Get a good education there? Really? Have you looked at the test scores? Just wondering whether all that smartness and good education could get you to the point of using factual information…

To summarize the non-Domer posts above for the incredulous Domers, let me keep it short and simple: If the French followed college football, they’d all root for Notre Dame.

1. - You are a prime example of why people hate ND.

That kid got smacked. Hard. But I’d howl like a four-year old too, if I got blindsided by a football player in full gear and full sprint.

The crying was a good sign, though, as most parents will confirm. It’s when the kid took a hit and he/she isn’t crying that you start to worry, as demonstrated by my sister who at that age broke her arm following me up a tree. (Five kids in six years, my parents were insane…)

The older kid there couldn’t have bailed from the collision any faster. He/she is definitely a flighter when confronted with stress.

When you said “Fuck the couch”, I assumed there was about to be a story involving a player and a bag of heated mayo between two couch cushions… what? It’s not any stranger than the goat thing.

An Alabama/Auburn threadjack sure would be nice right about now…

We’ve already had an ND threadjack. Rules prohibit having an ND tj and a Bama/Aub tj in the same thread… see NCAA Rule 70798, Section IIVIXLC (b), Paragraph 12,309, line 74. Trust me, it’s in there.

#34: I was curious, so I checked. ND ave SAT 1350, UF ave SAT 1306. Thats the same to me. Not sure if thats straight apples to apples. Judging from player interviews on TV and Wonderlic scores, the SAT gap between their players is much higher and roughly inversely proportional to the talent gap.

PeterPumpkinHead – that was tasteless, disgusting, and crass. I’m still giggling like a little girl, dude. Well played.

Actually, I heard that on Alt Nation this morning, and I about wrecked the car..

That kid does one hell of a MNC Game Troy Smith impression!!!

Damn, a JD by osmosis would have saved me $100K!

@17:

I’m not running smack about them being dumb. The b-school people I’ve met here are plenty smart. But they all look like the walking dead, and they all seem to hate their lives. And when you consider that the two years they spend in Charlottesville getting their MBAs are the easy years compared to when they go back to the world of i-banking, I can’t imagine why anyone would really want to do it.

Man, I am so down with the bad grammar intolerance. In fact, I’d like to point out that “AFTER ALL” is two words, goddammit.

Death to “Afterall”!!!!!!!!1one

“An Alabama/Auburn threadjack sure would be nice right about now…”

Ok, I’ll bite.

Joke’s on you all who thought the kid was using bad grammar during the interview…Auburn and Alabama are currently in a bidding war to make him an associate professor in their respective Language departments.

serves that kid right for rooting for the fucking sheep.

go pokes!

“Joke’s on you all who thought the kid was using bad grammar during the interview…Auburn and Alabama are currently in a bidding war to make him an associate professor in their respective Language departments.”

This from a fan of the Michigan School of Truck Repair?

Pot, Kettle… Kettle, Pot.

Peter, let’s be accurate. MSU is about TRACTOR repair.

Bama/Barn thread jacks are gold

Orson,

Speaking of bad grammar – " SKLM–we have been to neither B-school or law school. That’s just for the record. It’s just that every single friend of our has. We have a JD by osmosis."

Nor, motherfucker, NOR!

Saban would’ve gotten in the kid’s grill for playing the man and not the ball.

#51, #52, it was all in good fun. Someone asked for a ‘Bama/Auburn (or is it Auburn/’Bama?) diversion…and it was just kinda hanging there, so I hit it. I’ll make no breathless defense of MSU’s academic programs/reputation…it speaks for itself, good or bad.

Except grass…we grow indoor grass like a motherfucker.

After the collision, I say the kid still would’ve tripled David Irons’ Wonderlic score.

Re: children and bad grammar. Sorry to be late, but if my four year old used the word “hurted,” it would only be after a severe blow to the head from a wide receiver. My two year old, maybe, but she at least speaks in complete sentences the majority of the time.

At those ages, they model what they hear, which must be why they keep asking what those useless idiots are doing in the middle of the road.

In all fairness, it takes young children awhile to grasp the nuances of the English language. Using the word ‘hurted’ probably made sense to him since many verbs in the past tense end in ‘ed’.

Spartymike… you’re not the only ones growing grass indoors; that’s a common pastime out here.

(Oh, wait, wrong grass…)

Apropos 51 & 52, I had friends in the honors college at State, and they swore that theory of tractor design was their toughest course.

I don’t get it, who cares about Notre Dame, they aren’t even in anyone’s conference! You can still play in a BCS game if you lose to them, therefore, they do not matter.

BTW—-it seems very weak to me no one came up with an awesome post ragging on bothe ND and MBAs via the imfamous tailgaite video.

Damn, glad to hear that the “keg unloader” came to his senses and realized being sliced with a national championship ring is an honor, not an assault. I will say one thing, though, the guy is good at estimating height and weight. Not recognizing a guy whose stats I could go look up in a media guide, I would have likely told the cops he was “over 6’ and very large.”

Actually SpartyM, if you guys can grow outdoor grass, we could use some help on that one… all of us “rabid” Bama fans end up turning the West half of the Quad into a dust bowl by the 5th home game… and face it, we’re not going to the Barn and asking for help on that one

I realize that the theme of the post has already switched, but I need to say something. Please, do not become prejudiced and assume all Notre Dame fans are like our friend #18 here. We true fans hang our heads at the blind elitists just as much as you hate them – they ruin our image.

Seriously, 18, I have to wonder if you’re not a UM fan disguised to intentionally hurt our rep, you’re that bad.

Too late to make the “that is the hardest a colorado state player will hit anybody this year joke?”
Keep serving them up we will keep knocking them out

#30: Alex, I wish I could quit you.

In all fairness, it takes young children awhile to grasp the nuances of the English language.

If you insist on being fair to small children… you’re quite right, the irregular verbs wreak havoc with the football fans of tomorrow – but since most under-5 year olds spend their lives falling over or bouncing off large objects, they should be pretty familiar with “hurt.”

Northwestern gets on the Fulmer Cup board!

Preseason All-Big Ten Center Trevor Rees suspended indefinitely for team rules violations (getting charged with three moving violations including DUI).

Northwestern suspends Rees

JD’s and MBA’s = Overall, about equally smart and smarmy people, but not smart enough to get into MEDICAL school….

Bullshit on that one Harvey., Some of us are just grossed out by the stuff you have to do in medical school and don’t want to be around sick people all the time.

There are plenty of people “smart” enough for medical school who just would rather do other things.
