COLLEGE FOOTBALL LIVE: LIVEBLOG

“It’s the preseason so you can’t be wrong?” Hasn’t been three minutes and already my ears bleed.

We were under the impression there would be punch and pie at this live-blog. UCLA can be ranked in the top 20 when it discovers an offense first.

Er, top 12. Otherwise, my statement still holds.

Mark May just has the license shipped to his address. The Board doesn’t even bother to send him a renewal application.

True story: At a pep rally at tOSU before the Michigan game this year, Spielman showed up looking like he had to take a massive shit. His accompanying representative said Spielman had blown out his back squatting that day.

Or he just got done beating someone. Either way.

Hearing the words “Kentucky” and “Best in the country” in the same sentence; something just isn’t right about that. Unless you’re talking about Jews harp players.

OK State and Georgia, a matchup to be excited about? Have I missed something?

Mark May is on crack, right? I mean, seriously…it’s gotta be crack.

1. - guarantee it’s an 8-ball in the morning.

1. not be a nit picker but…bourbon, thoroughbreds, basketball, hotbed of Special Olympics recruiting circuit….

#8

“Let’s get an 8 ball, it ll last all weekend!”

Adarius Bowman often ran clear out of the stadium on fly patterns last season.

UCLA at #12 isn’t the craziest thing I ever heard. I mean there are some good players on that squad, so they should go 11-1 now that Dorrell’s been replaced, right?

Oh.

Kelly Naqi loves the ’Cocks.

(Someone was gonna go there.)

1. - The thoroughbreds come from all over, they just race in Kentucky. I’ll give you bourbon and special olympics, but KY hasn’t been anything special in basketball in a number of years. And I’d proclaim a certain couple teams on the east coast “best” long before anything in Kentucky.

The fan poll – must be a lot of unemployed South Carolina fans sitting at home today.

I’ll give Rece Davis credit for “trickeration” and…..well, there’s trickeration.

I usually like to see the good in people, but lord if Mark May isn’t the absolute worst thing to happen to my fall saturdays

#14, Rich Brooks just kicked a cat for talking about KY like that. And the city of Louisville filed papers yet again to secede and proclaim itself an independent city-state in the Ohio river

Way off-topic but, Orson: how was that Police show in NYC?

Did anyone accidentally leave the tv on when the nfl show started? I walked away, then came back to discover that Sean Salisbury spent the of-season eating all of PJ Hill’s pie.

Mr. Wrong—superb. They were simply superb.

Thanks, Orson. Resume ESPN bashing in 3, 2, 1…

Wendy Nix looks how Erin Andrews might look when she’s 50. I don’t have time for this fucking shit. Nice hire Bristol.

Also, so what you’re saying is even Blind people are beating ‘Bama these days. Good thing they didn’t schedule Galludet.

Shit, that was Wendy Nix? OK, I admit that if the woman is blonde, on ESPN, and is not named Erin Andrews or Stacy Dales, I can’t be bothered to remember her name.

chris spielman is pretty much my favorite tv sports personality ever. he is an unabashed Ohio State homer, could fit in an earle bruce reference into a boise state/west virginia thrusday night showdown, yells like an excited 5 year old who just beat his dad at whack-a-mole at the state fair whenever an LB hits someone, and is basically just a big dumb nice hilarious manfestation of the entire OSU fanbase.

he can make indiana versus akron interesting through sheer force of will, and i love him for it.

1. - am I reading you to say that Wendy Nix isn’t doable? If so, I respectfully dissent.

No, after I posted this I realized what an affront to EA that was. I just meant that its a waste hiring some old has-been when there’s tons of young talented prospects out there. I think it’s time to train EA’s future successor though. She’ll be quitting to get married and pop out babies any time now, I’d have to imagine. Every good thing must come to an end.

I think that someone should send a question with the name Hoof Hearted. Just think how funny that would be, Hoof Hearted in Texas asks… That is pure middle school hilarity gold.

Is DC Trojan really talking smack after his offense put up 9 points against UCLA last year?

Wait…

did Mark May say ucla at #12???

WTF…

Dorrell could have the whole Pro Bowl team and still fuck it up.

Hey Joe Bruin

Yeah you won… big Fucking deal. Shit happens.

Way to keep the momentum against half Assed U. thats all you got baby live it fur ball.

Yeah you won, who gives a shit!!!?

Not me Damnit!!!

Is DC Trojan really talking smack after his offense put up 9 points against UCLA last year?

I see that your degree from UCLA included full reading comprehension skills, bravo.

I suppose you’re right, I shouldn’t talk smack after UCLA managed a 4 point margin of victory. After all, look at the way you all won the Rose Bowl… I mean the Emerald Bowl… I mean posted back to back 10 win seasons… I mean after beating Notre Dame… etc., etc., etc.

Joe Bruin, I have seen good UCLA football teams. I have seen good UCLA football teams beat SC – repeatedly. UCLA has the core of a good team, provided the coaches stay out of the way and out of the big house. But when it comes to last December’s unpleasantness, one swallow doesn’t make it spring (as Matt Leinart once said to Brynn Cameron).

Yeah bitches, first on the Ming the Merciless reference. Aaaahhh-ahhhhhhhhh

Alright, I’m really pissed now. I actually went to Bodog and they don’t have the prop up for ND wins yet. Damnit. I really was going to bet a buck if the O/U was actually 9.

Um. Nevermind. I found it in the futures. And it’s actually 7. Wow. That’s dangerously low.

Or summer, dammit, one swallow doesn’t make it summer.

It might however make something spring, but perhaps the arrival of Leinart the Younger suggests that swallowing wasn’t on the agenda after all.

I’d have a hard time believing that even the most ardent Delany\Big 10 hater didn’t still want to punch Mark May in the mouth when he was responding to that Purdue fan’s question.

Mark May actually described a team as “competible” last week. Classic. Should be a word I use from that day on.

jay whitlow: No, two swallows make it a summer.

eric y: Y2K is really, pissed, any suggestions?

jay whitlow: I wonder how far he can spit a watermelon seed when he is really pissed. Might be a new Kansas record.

eric y: when is that contest, anyway?

jay whitlow: here’s the info, dude:

Saturday, September 15 at 7:00 p.m.. Kansas State Fair Grandstand … Kansas State Fair 2000 N Poplar St. Hutchinson KS 67502-5562, Toll Free 1-800-362-3247 …
ay whitlow and eric y

Summer house pa, Spielman, must be suffering from exhaustion after coming up with such wonderful Team Building exercises like “how can you expect to read defenses if you cannot brush and floss properly” and “making your bed develops character.”

Have you seen this program. House dad?

sorry…in fifteen minutes a blue chip recruit is being forced to publicly sing Yentl’s ‘Papa can you hear me’ to Spielman in front of a WNBA “crowd.”

a teary-eyed Spielman remarks…’that’s character building…these guys can go on and feel prepared to now play college football"

wats the name of the song being played going into the 1st commercial break? It goes something like..“I’m a champion”
