THE GREATS: KNUTE ROCKNE, JOHN HEISMAN...GOOFY.
Inspired by one of our commenters suggestions on how we can overcome our powerful antipathy for the sport of golf, we present the best possible explanation of the game of football we've ever seen.
We particularly enjoyed the Owen Schmitt cameo at the 2:20 mark as the fullback.

The shot of the stadium filling up is actual footage of Alabama’s spring A-Game.

I used to rent the Goofy does Sports or whatever this series was called all the time as a little kid.
My all time favorite representation of a sport though is still the hockey montage from Animalympics.

That must have been Chris Petersen calling the plays for Taxidermy in the first half.
They were a 3/4 pt favorite and I took them to cover…. friggin refs.

I’m guessing that’s the Coliseum, which would mean the fella in the fur coat coming out of the Taxidermy tunnel is Snoop Dogg.
So who’s the better cartoon athlete? Goofy the football player, or Bugs Bunny the baseball player?

I had forgotten about the Sports Goofy cartoons, but I absolutely adored watching them as a kid. I will have something to look forward to when I get home from work!

Was that Jim Harbaugh giving the half-time speech?

Hopefully Owen won’t eat your children for using his name without his approval.

That’s just cruel to feature Jarvis Moss in consecutive posts.

When Swivle Hips scored on the opening kick-off I was wondering if anyone from his team was going to injure him in the resulting celebration and knock him out of the game.

With that gunshot to end the half, this game was definitely played somewhere in Florida.

Ah yea I was going to save sending this one until an appropriate time, but you took the ball and ran with it Mr. Swindle.

Mustain to USC. I have a feeling the events behind this transaction should rate Fulmer Cup points.

Would anyone be against the idea of monday cheesecake to start the week off right?

The coach at the end isnt fulmer…its John L Smith.

I don’t think I’ve seen the hidden ball criss-cross cross-buck endaround double lateral razzle dazzle spinner split-bucket work properly.

Those refs are clearly corrupt. Anthropology A&M clearly crossed their own goal line under their own power, thus creating a safety, and yet they were rewarded with a touchdown. What is this, the big 8? Are we allowed 5 downs when there should only be 4? Is a team to be called for clipping when clearly they blocked a punt coverage guy in the chest? Goddammit, this corruption will not stand! This isn’t Vietnam, there are rules here!

My favorite was:
1… 2… 3… 4… 5… 15 yards for unnecessary roughness!
