FULMER CUPDATE: BUT NOW I GO BRONCO EDITION
The big board for this week, looking much the same as it did last week due to a spurt of good behavior or poor enforcement by the university police of this nation.
Notes, apologies, and addenda follow.

Boise State makes the big board per Tomek’s tip on the odd DUI arrest of John Helmandollar, Boise State running back who was picked up by Boise PD for driving under the influence of “something other than alcohol” at 11 a.m. Friday morning. Even odds on the substance, posted by EDSBS Wagers Ltd:
–Weed 2:1
–Meth 3:1
–Masturbated self into spunk-drunk stupor 4:1
–GHB 8:1
–Cocaine 12:1
–The people’s choice, Purple Drank 14:1
–MDMA 15:1
–LSD 18:1
–Nutmeg 35:1
–High on Jesus 50:1
–Under the intoxicating influence of intoxicating T-Payne ballad 75:1
–Delusional from all night reading session with bootleg Harry Potter 500:1
–Quaaludes 600:1 (He found the last one!)
Boise gets two Fulmer Cup points for DUI without using any trick plays at all.
Michigan will need some adjustment since the marijuana charges against one of its players have been dropped completely.

Michigan losing 2 makes UGA effectively rise to #6. I am OK with this.

I think if we combine “High on Jesus” and “Masturbated self into spunk-drunk stupor” we’ve got something. Something gross, but something nonetheless.

#3 beat me to it.
I would have been faster, but I was intoxicated after masturbating furiously to an old episode of the Golden Girls.

Was the Minnesota thing so horrendous that it just skips the Fulmer Cup completely? Did the Gophers attain escape velocity or something?

Orson Swindle says:
Actually, the single charge doesn’t even take them to seven points, BT. Thus, they miss the big board.

I think it was all the reading. There isn’t much else to do in Boise.
… all that to find out DELETED FOR HARRY POTTER SPOILER PROTECTION.
Had to cast the Muffliato spell on that one, Bully.

BT says:
Ah, gotcha. The Fulmer Cup is quite generous for caring only about the single third-degree sexual assault charge. Kind of odd that four guys got kicked off the team for the same episode, though.

You know who doesn’t have time for purple drank? Nick Saban, lawya.
There. I just combined three of my favorite running jokes from this blog.

Nick Saban does have some time to pimp his book: “How Good Do You Want to Be?: A Champion’s Tips on How to Lead and Succeed at Work and in Life”

It just wouldn’t be a Fulmer Cup if it didn’t have Georgia clambering into the top 10 using a ladder constructed of public-intox and suspended-licence charges, would it?
Purple Drank reminds me of this shit we used to make on Wednesday nights at UGA before we went out clubbing — just basically purple Kool-Aid mixed with Golden Grain, consumed whilst watching reruns of “The Golden Girls” on WGN, and therefore dubbed “Golden Girls Kool-Aid.” (Note: This has absolutely nothing to do with the activities described in #6.)

Michigan clarification – are you talking about TE Carson Butler being found “not guilty” of the assault charges? If so, the charge wasn’t dropped; rather, it was tried to its conclusion. If you were referring to something else, apologies in advance.

Georgia underage drinker (however, have yet to dabble in crack) says:
Tennessee is not in the top 12? The man was slangin’ rocks! Seriously, what beats that? That is the grand slam, hat trick, and hole in one of the Fulmer Cup. Good Old Crack Rocky Top. And for my money, the boy from Boise was sippin’ on some syzurp.

Orson, some Nebraska Fulmer Cup info:
Mo Purify’s assult charge was dropped in a plea deal in his DUI case.
I’m thinking this warrants some point deductions.

Does one of Purify’s charges being dropped as part of the plea agreement alter Nebraska’s total?

The Fledgling Fulmer’s are now off the list. Christ all mighty! I’m not even a Vols fan, but I find their lack of extra-caricular activity this summer very disheartening.
Can we get some cash together and pay someone undercovers to lure some UT players into the Tennessee backwoods? Being arrested standing next to a still should get them back on the first page.
