FULMER CUPDATE: MINERS STRIKE IT RICH
This week’s big board appears below. Notes, corrections, and a whole slew of embedded updates follow:

UTEP may not catch Illinois, but do not blame the lack of effort as the reason why they’ll fall short of a Fulmer Cup title. The Miners score 13 points in their debut on the board thanks to a right cracker of an FnDC incident, complete with vivid, rarely cited charges like “assaulting a public servant” and “attempting to take an officer’s weapon.” Teamwork got them here, people: five players earned charges in all, with Tufick Shadrawy and Brian Wilkins earning the lion’s share of the gold strike themselves.
UTEP coach and roving roustabout Mike Price can’t really comment too much on the case at the moment, and with good reason: he’s recovering from surgery he underwent last week to put a stent in his heart to relieve pressure on a blocked artery. Guilt trip ‘em, Mike–show ‘em the flesh zipper like Krusty would.
Minnesota is already getting more exciting under new coach Tim Brewster–exciting like a wacky Euro-sex party with your close friends Mystikal and Andrew Lauder! Minnesota’s had some kind of nasty sexual assault case brewing for a while, yet the arrest of Dominic Jones for probable cause of criminal sexual misconduct has no apparent connection to the past allegations of third degree sexual assault earlier this spring.
Minnesota picks up four for what in essence is a rape charge. Jones is being held in the Hennepin County Jail without bail, which is not a good sign for him.
Finally, we award one point for weed possession to South Carolina, whose recruit Quintin Richardson may earn a point as he’s currently enrolled at SC and therefore eligible for Fulmer Cup points despite never having strapped on a Cock helmet for South Carolina. Richardson was picked up following a report of shots fired at an apartment complex. A police search ensued, and Richardson was found Holden Caulfield. William Holden. You know what we mean, man.
Richardson may also want to avoid the apartment complex altogether–this is the same apartment complex where Richardson was stabbed last month in an fight over a lady. Hell, we avoid towns where we’ve gotten bad roast beef sandwiches–stabbing would certainly do the trick as far as blacklisting a spot on our daily rounds.

So when does the Fulmer Cup “Crystal ball-sack” get awarded? Who’s the defending champion?
(My interest has been spawned by the recent points earned by my Crimson Tide. Brawl-tide-brawl–hope you guys throw down in Arghruburun like you do with the T-town police– HYeCHA!
***dreams of a Fulmer Cup and being named as Dirtiest Program in same year would be exciting-But it appears that Illinois and Penn-state are ina league of their own.****

Don’t blame the roast beef. It had to be the condiments.

Will Mike Price be cleared by doctors to enjoy roast beef again?

That’s right Aerobab. I don’t live far from campus and I’ll be keeping my eye out for any reason to call the UT police so we can start racking the points. There will be no coverup on my watch!

wtf a “hipper” is, beats the shit out of me. I can’t type. I was trying to type, “hippie” in reference to the SNL skit, “You put your weed in it!”

Only Orson can combine “strapped on a cock helmet” with a Catcher in the Rye reference. We now why JD Salinger stopped writing: he sucks compared to Mr. Swindle.

Tourist in Gamecock souvenir shop: So, shopkeeper, what is this? (holding up Cock Helmet)
Hipper Shopkeeper: Ooooh, that is the rare, untarnished helmet from the Fighting Gamecock tribe that resides in William-Brice Stadium.
Tourist: So what’s it used for?
Shop keeper: You put your weed in it.

#7, I am quite sure there is place known as Tia Juana’s in Ciudad Juarez that uses old christmas tree lights to illuminate the place.

re#7, I think Juarez is just a quick swim across the river from El Paso.

COME ON TENNESSEE! The God damn trophy is named after your coach. 7 points? You should be ashamed of yourselves. Did the State of Tennessee pass a law banning alcohol? Are you clowns going to allow UTEP and Idaho make you look bad? Punch a cop, burn down a building, carjack someone, I don’t give a shit. Score some freaking points.

I believe Mike Price in true Krusty the Klown fashion would take those boys to the happiest place on Earth – Tiajuana, Mexico

OPS–
I initially visualized it as a giant cock-shaped helmet, not unlike the donkey dick hat worn to church by Early Cuyler, but I see where you’re coming from.

Aren’t most cock helmets roll-on, not strap-on?

Nice use of “strap on” and “cock” in the same sentence. I changed jobs and haven’t had internet access in like 3 weeks. Oh how I’ve missed you, Orson.

“Hell, we avoid towns where we’ve gotten bad roast beef sandwiches”
Tsk, tsk. That’s not always true. You don’t avoid Gainesville, and I remember several attepts by you to sample the fare at Steamers that resulted in near-death experiences.
You’d think the name alone would have clued us in…
