DAILY AFFIRMATION: DAY 18
Little light-headed, sure. But yeah, otherwise, Boulder’s awesome. I mean, the beer, the scenery, the vibe, the complete lack of humidity…it’s gorgeous. And look at this! This is insanity, man.
Wait. What the hell are they doing with that…is that a buffalo? A live goddamn buffalo? They’re not going to…
Oh, my. They are.

They need to put an organ-grinding monkey on top of Ralphie.

#51 – It would also go well on the shoulder of the office manager here.

Allahver-
He usually doesn’t reply to my emails, either.
To all: To generate HTML tags, you enter the correct instruction inside a set of less than/greater than signs, like so: “< " "instruction" ">“without the quotation marks. Then, when you want that formatting to stop, you type the same thing with a slash before the instruction, “< " "/instruction" ">“.
For bold text, substitute “b” for the “instruction” above.
For italic text, substitute “i”.
For underlined text, substitute “u”.
For
strikethroughtext, substitute “strike” (although I think “s” works, too.)For colored text, substitute “font color=red”, etc.
To create a link, you would type

OK, the post above is a fucking mess. Just follow the link and it will explain (but I don’t think you can use the underline or font color commands here).

#42 — Billy Cannon won the Heisman for LSU in 1959 on the strength of his 89 yard punt return TD on Halloween night vs. Ole Miss. It’s a ridiculous run where he breaks what looks like 2 dozen tackles
The Tigers were defending national champs entering the game, and both teams were undefeated at the time.
It was and arguably still is the biggest game ever played in Tiger Stadium …..at least until Georgia and LSU battled as Top 10 teams in 2003.
Cannon’s run is an iconic part of Southern Football mythology. It’s “their thing.”
And in typical LSU fashion, they lost the week after the biggest win of the season. That is also “their thing.”

Those refs at Tennessee sucked ass. It’s no wonder we lost.

USC’s Horse (Not Matt Leinart’s latest bimbo) Dept:
Ralphie is cool, perhaps the top college football mascot.
Though, I am partial to USC’s Traveler (the white horse), especially when he dumps the rider on a run in the Coliseum. Saw that once and still laugh about it. The rider was ok, ego and bones just bruised a bit.

Most underrated job in college sports–Ralphie handler.
Sure, you put your life at risk.
But those dudes had their pick of the women in Athens last year.
My girlfriend talked about them for the entire game.

Actually, I would guess that the mascot with by far the most disaster potential is the Sooner Schooner. That thing gets out of hand, and there will be some property destroyed, no doubt.

#39- Dang, I had no idea that Karsten had passed away. RIP.
#59- Went out to the UGA game last year and ALL they wanted to talk about was Ralphie. They thought it was the coolest thing ever…nevermind the Buffs nearly pulled off the upset.

The Counselor says:
Ralphie leading the team out of the locker room is an impressive sight. However, every once in a while, Ralphie just doesn’t feel like running and stops in his tracks (just to remind everyone that he is a goddamn buffalo and doesn’t dance fer nobody iff’n he don’t want to), which is a decidedly unimpressive and anti-climactic ocurrence that usually portends badly for the game, if you ask me.
