CURIOUS INDEX, 9/7/07

Rich Rodriguez, you want some of this.Louisville's defense has a flavor. And that flavor is sweet, yielding cotton candy. Middle Tennessee, the co-champs of the Sun Belt last year, scofflaws, came into the Papa and put up 42 points on the Louisville Cardinals in a zesty, garlic-butter soaked 58-42 loss. Middle Tennessee State averaged ten yards an offensive play against Louisville's defense. Purple lightning--that's always a good sign! West Virginia may pull a Phidippides and end Steve Slaton's Heisman campaign early when he dies from exhaustion during their matchup later this year. We could use more choice, actually. Appalachian State has opened the door for D-1AA teams to be ranked with the big boys, thanks to some poll tweakage. Or one could say that Lloyd Carr has, in fact, dragged D-1 football down an entire level in one fell swoop. We prefer to accentuate the positive and just say that we're thrilled to multiply the number of ways we can fuck up a Blogpoll ballot by a factor of a zillion. We used to just have the five taps at the Starvin' Marvin; now we have the boggling choices of the MEGABEVERAGEWALL. Greeaaaat. Rich Rodriguez, dick. Well, at least to Georgia fans in this United Bank video, which we can certainly tolerate. Trust me, this works. That loss hurts almost as much as this handjob machine feels good. If Oregon should lose to Michigan on Saturday and become the first to catch transitive football loss herpes from the Wolverines, at least they have their palatial locker room to return to in Eugene. For all we know, they actually do have a handjob machine. You say it best, when you say nothing at all. Nat from Sun Sports is one badass commentator. He's like Pootie Tang and Too Short, sellin' a mil when they breathe on the mike. <!-- End content section --> |

In the Oregon locker room article… “One whirlpool can hold the entire volleyball team…” I hope they’ll take full advantage of that amenity.

That’s oddly reminicent of a commercial Glen Mason did for TCF Banks. He told the kids they were going to punt and play prevent defense to win the game, but then some little bastard in a Wisconsin shirt blocked the punt and started break dancing.

and wouldn’t it be a “machine job?”
hell, this is Phil Knight’s alma mater, why not just hire Chinese kids to, um, staff the locker room?

Rich Rodriguez is making it easier for me to hate W f’n VA.
I hope Georgia gets a chance to play them in another bowl one day. And then runs a screen to the W f’n VA sideline near the coach and he gets taken out in the resulting gang tackle a la Larry Miller in Necessary Roughness.
Also, I totally hope United Bank goes under and takes down the fragile moonshine-and-flammable-couch-base economy in Morgantown.
Bitter? No…

Tennessee LB Ryan Karl on Cal’s speed: “It surprised me how fast they were. I don’t know if we’ll see a team this quick in the SEC all year.”

Not facetious whatsoever, but could App. State receive a bowl invite? (Ignoring contractual obligations between conferences and bowls, etc).

Louisville’s defense should be paired with Oregon State’s offense and sent down to the Bowl championship subdivision…

Ouch. Painful memories which I had blocked from my mind come rushing (no pun intended) back. Dammit Orson, now I have to start drinking for tomorrow’s game early with the intent to forgetting that awful fourth down again.

OK, this is just adorable: “Oregon trainer Kim Terrell says more lighting will be added because too many players have been coming in and napping on the tables…”

Maybe that would explain that Dennis Dixon interview (u know the video) where is eyes are basically closed. He must have been….tired

From the Oregon article:
“…the equipment is now there for dental care and optometry so the Ducks can bring in specialists rather than send players out.”
Great, I’ll think about that next time I’m hauling my no-insurance ass on 4 buses and a shuddering freight locomotive to get to Dr. Jeff’s Discount Eyecare/Dentistry/Off-Track Betting.
Also, now I’m picturing Dennis Dixon “dancing” for 141 yards on the ground vs. Houston. It’s kind of like the Blake Mitchell thing, only with an atmosphere that’s described as being “like a nightclub.”

100 Cocktails for the term – transitive football loss herpes!!
I can’t wait for the late night commercials on the WWL for the cure (pill or cream?). Of course, given the way things are going, I should beat the rush and contact the doctor today…..

Swindle, that’s below the belt, man. And by “below the belt” I mean “almost as bad as Jerius Norwood breaking into the clear with [Coach Redacted] giving chase”. Hugs,

Props to the Ducks!

God, everyone in the stands at that game was screaming “FAKE PUNT,” and they still got it off. You’d think if the drunk 60 year old mouth breather behind me could slobber his way through the phrase “fake punt” then Richt and co could have seen it coming as well. Ugh, thanks for the horrible memories, asshat.

This caught my eye about Oregon’s training room:
One whirlpool can hold the entire volleyball team.
There’s a happy thought. How many recruiting hostesses and 5 star prospects do you suppose it holds?
As for Oregon State, the nadir of that game had to be when Serna went to punt and some Bearcat player fell backwards into a block of the punt – which was promptly recovered for a touchdown. Just like the old cliche, if it wasn’t for bad luck the Beavs would have had no luck at all.

Papa John’s Cardinal Stadium could use a better nickname.
“The Pizza Box” works, but doesn’t convey which pizza, and my guess is Papa John’s paid a nice amount of money to be associated with the stadium. So, to not short shrift the sponsor, we could call it “The Garlic Sauce Tub”

That RichRod spot is great. Brings back memories of seeing all those Bulldogs crying and looking like they got run over by trucks named Slaton, White and Schmitt.

Life as Rich is looking up, I heard he got a sweet new contract, along with pay increases and nice bonuses for all his assistants and guaranteed money for facilities; all that and he doesn’t have to deal with the most insane, coach-worshipping/crucifying fan base in America, the criminal tide. He and his family can actually go out to in public and not have to be followed around like the Beatles or Elvis.
And guess what, he also gets to compete for a NC and every now and then he can still break it off in someone from the SEC ass…something we obviously can’t do.

Greg Blue really showed the mountaineers how they played football in the SEC. I think the commercial was a bit too much though. I am a mountaineer fan. I still pull up highlights of that game sometimes, but it really is time to put that win in the past. I know it is hard not to gloat. That win was big for the big east and more so for WVU. All it would have amounted to for Georgia was another bowl win. As a mountaineer fans we should look to the future and hope we are able to experience as much greatness as UGA has.
