Around SBN: Hugh Douglas Admits To Stealing From Jaguars

BLOGTOBERFEST! SHORN EMU EDITION.

The New Radicals of blog features: one permanent member, many revolving pieces.

Texas Gal's knows how the Shorn Emu sings. Shocking, sad, and underreported news from Notre Dame's spring scrimmage: Jimmy Clausen shaved his trademark Emu-do. Without the distractions, bourbon warrior Texas Gal focused on the important things: Tom Zbikowski's Van Damme-esque buttocks.

In case you need a brain enema after that phrase......this will not help at all.

The matchup of cocaine and Jean Claude Van Damme in the prolapse of his career has been as inspired a pairing as Peter O'Toole/scotch, Joe Piscapo/nandralone, and David Lee Roth/rockclimbing. Um...football? Yes, football...

Smrt pepl lke futbaw. Particularly smart Republican ones. Meanwhile, baseball continues its slow death, while NASCAR reigns supreme among people who didn't graduate high school. Stereotypes: full of vitamin fact!

Tom Dienhart, goin' robo at work if this is any indication. Cough syrup is a hell of a drug. At least it better be to make someone construct a ranking of coaches where one can construct these inelegant statements:

Jim Grobe>Steve Spurrier
Kirk Ferentz>Urban Meyer
Tom O'Brien>Greg Schiano
Chan Gailey>Phil Fulmer

We hate Phil, but God's Wounds! Chan? By the Hammer of Thor, we've got to break out some seriously exaggerated oaths to encompass how truly silly that list is. Richt at 23, in a job that's tougher than most people know? Great Rama's Lingam! Bobby Bowden over Joe Paterno? By the Silvery Feathers of Quetzalcoatl!

Yet another Michigan blog. It's like you all can read AND use the computer, Wolverines. Literacy, bitches, literacy.

Mike Leach, healer of souls. The best college football blogger in the known universe has the pirate captain on for a bit of soul-healing advice to a reader in the latest installment of "Ask Mike Leach," re: why his friends who did not attend his awesome, championship tramp of a school aren't speaking to him.


It could also be they're avoiding you because you're an asshole. I was listening to public radio recently while I was mapping the inefficiencies of my local sewer system for my upcoming presentation to the Lubbock City Council, "Optimization of Collection System Maintenance Frequencies and System Performance," and I heard a story about a guy who suddenly realized all his friends thought he was an asshole.

MIKE LEACH LISTENS TO THIS AMERICAN LIFE!!! Shocking. Too bad they're ending the series, their long, arduous mission finally accomplished.


Mike Leach: Ira Glass fan, yes, ladykiller, no.

Science verifies reason. It makes marginally more sense to go on defense first in overtime, according to people who work with numbers and stuff. We're thrilled that the Sabermetrics crew has drifted slowly over to football, a significantly more difficult subject of analysis than baseball. We just can't wait to see who emerges as the despised Joe Morgan of the antiempirical mob. We're guessing Mark May, though Bob Davie's a good guess, too.

All Notre Dame QBs shaved their heads for Spring Practice. Not sure why ???? I think Jimmy took some ribbing from his teammates as he was the last to shave his head.

As for the most despised between either Mark May or Bob “White Noise” Davie…..My bet is on Boob Davie….I don’t like Mark May but he tends to get Lou all fired up and that’s pretty funny. Never liked Boob Davie while he was a coach….Putting him alongside Brent Mushmouth kills me………

If the South is, let’s say, 55 percent Republican, and mostly middle-class to upper-class kids go to college, and CFB is biggest in the South, then 1+1=Poll Results.

I don’t know, though. I’m a Democrat and suffer the slings and arrows of Alabama football every season, but my mom, also a Dem, has called it quits.

It was poorly planned and badly executed, she says. But I said, “Hey, Bama has Saban now, with a new plan. It’s going to work this time. Jump on board for the big win!” She is cynical about this new plan, just like the four other new plans that didn’t work.

You know, there are some liberals you just can’t talk to.

A couple of questions:

1) What’s Autumn Thunder got against M-Zone?

2) It appears from the coach rankings that [NAME REDACTED] is set much higher than The Orgeron. Is this for real, or is the columnist just trying to set [NAME REDACTED] up to be the next “special” guest at The Orgeron’s benzene-’n-brew corpsefire weekend?

Why is Richt’s job so tough? Hippies, Mike Adams, and Mudcat’s car. I’m suprised the Reverand isn’t dead yet.

Fielding the best team you’ve ever coached and losing at home to Zook does not a top ten coach make. Plus he’s a real schrutebag.

by John on Apr 26, 2007 9:28 PM EDT reply actions  

Its bad enough that Urban Meyer is placed behind Jim Tressel, whom he just destroyed in January, but behind Frank Beamer and Rich Rodriguez? Let’s see, Urban Meyer: 1 MNC, Beamer/Rodriguez/Ferentz combined: 0 MNCs. That seems like pretty compelling evidence to me.

(I’m of course leaving out all of the other inherent advantages that any UF coach might have over a WVa coach, but I still think the comparison works.)

Davie…I’m still trying to kill him with my mind for the suffering. In any given instance, it’s likely Bob Davie will end up fucking it up badly, for everyone. It’s his version of the Midas touch.

apparently Joe Tiller is a better coach than Charlie Weis (who shouldn’t even be on the damn list), despite being horribly outcoached in their last two meetings.

And Gene Chizik probably has a few choice words for Dienhart, something along the lines of “Go Fuck Yourself”

It sure is nice having the best coach in the SEC. He’s undefeated. As Jermareo Davidson likes to say, BEAT THAT SHIT!!!!

Fulmer Cup Points for Georgia, unfortunately. Developing story, and the same guy as earlier in the offseason. What a genius.

how the hell is Jim Grobe (1 yr wonder at Wake Forrest) ahead of Urban Myer, Mike Bellotti or Les Miles……what kool-aide is this guy drinking. This guy should base his theory on 1) head to head matchups and 2) the ability to recruit, but it looks to me, like anything other then the top ten is decide by dart board !!!

Tom Dienhart’s Coach Ranking is just another reason, in a long list of reasons to ask how the Shit does this guy still have a job?

Standard day for Dienhart:
1. 10:00AM. Drag ass out of bed and grab the paper outside.
2. 11:00AM Done reading the paper, flip on “The View”.
3. 12:45PM. Mosey on down to the local coffee shop and grap an orange moca frapachino.
4. 2:00PM to 5:00PM. The Soaps are on.
5. 6:00PM. Oh shit I need to write another post for Sporting News.
6. 6:05PM Post done-
   " Top 5 Heisman Trophy Canidates-
      1. Darren McFadden- Hes Fast and Shifty
      2. Steve Staton- Hes Faster.
      3. Brian Brohm- Hes a Winner.
      4. John David Booty- Did you see him vs. Michigan.
      5. Eric Ainge- 2nd year under Cutcliffe. Watchout."

I’ll tell you why Mark Richt’s job is so hard at UGA… because he’s a married 40-something and that place is crawling with non-southamerican, though highly attractive pseudo-models with a southern hospitality orientation that even treat Gators properly… and crawling was about all I was capable of doing upon my departure…

Gonna be a slow Friday…

1.) Tommy D has often proven his mental defect, so I don’t understand all the uproar over this coaching list… I can have my 10 month old nephew post one if you guys really need something to get fired up about

2.) Ok, I know I’ve head down a lot the last couple of weeks, but is the “Hammer of Thor” a Tina Fey thing, or did she steal it from something else that I’ve managed to miss?

3.) Speaking of TAL, Orson, are you going to see Ira Glass on Sunday?

Most telling quote from Texas Gal’s post:

“QB candidate #2 – Evan Sharpley. Not very cute. The QB of the Fightin’ Irish has to have cover model good looks, so his chances don’t look good.”

So I guess that means that Clausen will never see the field, huh? That guy looks like someone set his face on fire and tried to put it out with an icepick. Plus, he’s a Clausen, so he probably sucks anyway.
