50 REASONS FLORIDA RULES AND TENNESSEE JUST PLAIN SUCKS: 1-20something

It's Hate week 3.0 on EDSBS, meaning that we play Tennessee on Saturday, and can't sleep for the bloodrage we're working up prior to the game. Join us and make INGSOC triumphant.

We give you chapter two of the Chairman's manual with Reasons 1-25 Florida Rules and Tennessee Sucks Forever. Because they do, indeed, suck forever, sometimes as a football team, sometimes as a state, but most pleasingly to the Florida fan, when they suck together all at the same time in one sorrowful, audible slurp.

1. Tennessee is shaped like a parallelogram. Florida, however, is "America's Wang." And where would America be without its wang?

2. Florida great Steve Spurrier is a Volunteer State exile (Johnson City), meaning that the greatest coach ever born in Tennessee ran screaming from it the first chance he got, and never came back. There's no humor there. It just really sucks for you, Vol fan, and makes us warm and happy inside.

3. Even after thirty years of government interdiction, Florida's still putting the yayo on your glass coffee tables in piles, America. You're welcome (sniff).

4. We gave you Creed in order to make you feel good about your own life in a fun way, as in "I'm not Scott Stapp, and that's great, really." Nashville gives you music to help you justify your sad, tobacco-stained penniless existence, prole...um, we mean ain't it great scraping by on 22K with three kids in a place with terrible public schools! WOOOO!!! VOTE PAPPY FOR GUVNAH!!!

5. Our coach has won a championship in the 21st century.

Star-divide

6. Our fans are loud, rude, uncouth, classless, urine-tossing, sunburned, drunk, foulmouthed smartasses from the dregs of America's sketchiest state. Tennessee's root for Tennessee.

Advantage: Florida.

7. Miami Vice. Empty Nest. Golden Girls. Nip/Tuck. Florida's rolling in television shows. Tennessee couldn't even get fucking Evening Shade over for a few roadtrip episodes.

8. This is the first thing you see after the Florida state line sign driving south on I-75.

9. Dangerous wildlife in Florida includes alligators, several types of poisonous snake, sharks, and jellyfish. Dangerous wildlife in Tennessee consists of Pac-Man Jones, who would totally lose to any of these except the jellyfish, who Pac-Man could probably have a henchman paralyze with a stray gunshot or two.

10. Tennessee state flower: the Iris. Oh, that's so quaint. Florida state flower: the gasoline fire ball from something blowing up in Miami due to civil unrest. Oh, that's so...routine, actually.

11. Florida's high murder rate explained? We're outgoing! And armed to the teeth. And really, really hot and irritated at the moment. What? WHAT?

12. Bilingual culture ensures that Floridians speak two languages very poorly, rather than one as in Tennesseans' case.

13. Tennesseans born knowing how to electric slide and boot-scoot; Floridians born knowing how to salsa, meringue, and file down the firing pin of an AR-15 so that that thing will blow doors on full-auto, motherfucker.

14. Our governor's gay. There are no gay people in Tennessee, so Florida's instantly more stylish by far on points automatically.

15. Florida Senator Bill Nelson is a former astronaut. Tennessee Senator Bill Frist adopted cats from the Humane Society and dissected them for "practice" during med school. Meow.

16. The weather sucks for five months straight in Tennessee during this bizarre thing called "winter." From November to March it's like living underneath Bea Arthur's pubic hair: cold, gray, barren, and soggy.


Yes. A very accurate description you have there.

17. Danny Wuerffel never lost a game to Peyton Manning in college. Peyton Manning is the best quarterback of his generation. This should indicate that if Manning had played for Spurrier, he would have had nine Super Bowls by now, thrown for 237,000 yards, and impregnated a line of supermodels that would make Tom Brady look like a mediocre polygamist in comparison.

18. Our mascot has the unique quality of being something that eats you and that you can eat, in theory.

19. Speaking of...Smokey loses in the Mascot War. Unless it's cold, and then we'd get torpid, and even then Smokey would likely break his teeth on Albert's hide. And who wants to live when it's below sixty degrees anyway.

20. Haven't lost to Vanderbilt recently, have we?

21. No one does cancer like we do. Especially skin cancer. And cockroaches. In fact, the mayor of Apopka, Florida was at one time a huge, talking tumor who rode a tremendous Palmetto bug around on his daily rounds. Charismatic. Great with reforming local zoning laws. Helluva golfer, he was.

22. Corporate home of Outback Steakhouse, who brought you 36 percent of Phil Fulmer's body mass courtesy of the chain's trademark appetizer, the Bloomin' Onion.

23. Tennessee brought you writers such as James Agee, who wrote depressing books about poor people. Florida has Carl Hiaasen, who writes about middle-aged white guy journalists getting ass way hotter than they should reasonably get and about people getting fucked to death by dolphins. (The best part is that this actually happened.) Boooo poor people! Yayyyy dolphin sodomy! Advantage: Florida.

24. Lost last year's bowl game to a team coached by a zombie.

25. Beat Dennis Franchione in a bowl game prior to that, which may or may not count as a win, really.

26. In case of the Rapture, Tennesseans' cars will be unmanned. Florida fans will totally steal them all and take them to this guy we know out in Bartow who'll give us mad cash for them. Especially Lexuses, man.

More to come! Viva hate!

Conversely, what else does a female refer to a strange male on this sort of forum as, otherwise? “Hey douchebag” seems a bit harsh, I guess.

It’s no coincidence that almost all major colleges have at least one charge of brandishing an assault rifle. I also find that they Brady Billboards wildly underestimate the size and calibur of the average Floridian’s firearm. I mean, seriously, we’re all nuts and apparently everybody wants to seem like a badass and thus virtually everyone thinks, hey, I need a .45 . Never know when I’ll need to murder an elephant.

re:#24:

by PW on Sep 11, 2007 3:20 PM EDT reply actions  

The Brady Campaign billboard is in reference to the “Stand Your Ground” or “Shoot First” law passed in 2005. Previously, if you were met with an imminent threat of death or great bodily harm outside of your home, you had to attempt to flee the scene before responding with deadly force. This law — among other things — simply removes that requirement. Despite the controversy from gun control groups, it really just means you don’t have to prove that you were unable to run before you shot the two guys with knives that jumped you at your car.

Tennessee laws seem pretty good, although they don’t allow you to carry anywhere that alcohol is served. (Floridians can carry at restaurants as long as they stay out of the bar area.)

Why Tennessee is better:

- Tennessee is the Volunteer state because Tennesseans are 1,000 times braver than people from other states. During the War of 1812, a Tennessean named Andrew Jackson volunteered himself and his troops to defend the city of New Orleans from British troops; in a battle that didnt even matter! The war had been over for several days! Just imagine if Hurricane Katrina had tried to take on Jackson?

- Thousands of Tennesseans fought in the Revolutionary War and Tennessee wasn’t even a state or a colony!

-We founded and stole Texas from Mexico!

-During the Mexican-American war, President James K. Polk (a Tennessean) needed 3,000 men to volunteer to fight. 30,000 Tennesseans stepped up to fight and crushed Mexico. In fact, Mexico was beaten so badly they gave the United States: California, Nevada, Utah and parts of Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, and Wyoming. Just imagine if Tennessee was responsible for boarder control? The United States would be annexing Cancun and Mexico City in the next three weeks!

-We invented Rock and Roll.

- During World War I, Alvin York killed 32 Germans and captured 132 others, ALL BY HIMSELF!

-More Famous Tennesseans:

Eddy Arnold singer, Henderson
Chet Atkins guitarist, Lutrell
Hattie Caraway first elected woman senator, Bakerville
Davy Crockett frontiersman, Green City
Jack Curtis screenwriter, Stony Creek
David G. Farragut first American admiral, Knoxville
Lester Flatt bluegrass musician, Overton Cty
Tennessee Ernie Ford singer, Bristol
Morgan Freeman actor, Memphis
Abe Fortas jurist, Memphis
Aretha Franklin singer, Memphis
Nikki Giovanni poet, Knoxville
Albert Gore Jr. U.S. vice president, Washington, D.C.
Isaac Hayes composer, Covington
Benjamin L. Hooks civil rights activist, Memphis
Cordell Hull secretary of state, Overton Cty
Dolly Parton singer, Sevierville
Minnie Pearl singer, comedienne, Centerville
Elvis Aaron Presley singer/King of Rock and Roll (born in Mississippi, but they are too scared to claim him, knowing that Tennessee could invade at any moment), Memphis
Grantland Rice sportswriter, Murfreesboro
Carl Rowan journalist, Ravenscraft
Wilma Rudolph runner, St. Bethlehem
Sequoia Cherokee scholar, educator
Cybil Shepherd actress, Memphis
Dinah Shore actress, singer, Winchester
Pat Summitt winningest basketball coach ever, Clarksville
Tina Turner singer, Brownsville
Reggie White professional football player, Chattanooga
Al Wilson professional football player/ folk hero, Jessie Palmer’s daddy! Jackson
Alvin York World War I hero, Pall Mall

(I am sure there a many more, but this is getting long)

 
-Tennessee became the thirty-sixth and clinching state to ratify the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which allowed women the right to vote.

-During Japans attack on Pearl Harbor, the USS Tennessee was sunk. The US government realized that a massive weapon was needed to even the score. The Germans, still feeling the affects of one Tennessean, knew better than to send spies to Tennessee. The government was aware of this, and began production of the atomic bomb in Oak Ridge. When word spread about what was going on, Germany quickly surrendered. Japan, not taking the hint, found out, twice, what happens when you mess with Tennessee.

-We have a football stadium that is so large; on game days it becomes the fifth largest city in the state!

CON, you are right, i should not insult you because you’re gay; just because the gaytors suck!

by Walt on Sep 12, 2007 5:18 PM EDT reply actions  

Really, Walt? Then how do you explain last year’s national championship victory?

But you still didn’t explain why being gay is a bad thing. Seriously, I want to know why you use the term “gaytors” and continue to imply that all the other posters here are gay.

we dont need all that cut and pasted wikipedia crap.
Just realize all that info is wasted on this one fact:
Florida is the 2007 NCAA champs, in basketball and football. Period. Unless your bringing all those people with you, dead or alive, your gonna need ’em come Saturday. Can Tennessee be sold to Mexico since half their population of Mexico lives in your local Tennessee Walmart on the 1st and 15th of every month? The only thing you Volunteered for is an ass whooping of an epic scale.

CON, I never said other posters are gay, I only made fun of the Gaytors being gay, but you are right i should have just said Florida sucks and been done with it. The victory over a crappy buckeye team is not much to boast over, Appalachian State could have done that. Thanks for putting it all in perspective.Anyway, Tennessee will kick GAYTOR ass! You will see on Saturday.GIT-R-DONE

He really doesn’t know where he is, does he? Walt, you just keep posting as much as you like here. Hundreds of comments. You go right ahead.

Where are you gonna be tailgating on Sat, Orson?

I trust showing up in EDSBS gear will earn one a free brewski, no?

(Then showing up in same gear w/ baseball cap and fake mustache will earn another.)

Thanks Swindle i was starting to feel hated outside our friendly rivalry, you guys don’t have to get all mad about the GAYTOR comments. just havin fun, you guys are secretly BIG ORANGE FANS, i know it!

Nicely done. You’d have to adjust the spring on an AR-15 to make it fully automatic, however. Filing down the firing pin wouldn’t cut it.

Walt,

To quote Chris Rock in reference to the Ten-Fla game:

“So you tha smarty art n*&^&&? Lemme ask you this,
can ya kick Florida’s azz? "
Lord please let Phil Fulmer die, I pray we will actually feed him to a live gator if he loses, or cover him in mayo and let Charlie Weiss chase after him in a dark locker room with no windows or doors. Amen.

Lets put some wagers on this game:
 Florida wins:
Walt has to send phone pics of his genitalia to ESPN til he gets hired or arrested.
Tennessee wins:
 Orson has to shave Fulmers legs and give him a bikini wax so he can wear a speedo to cover up his C-section scar.

Idon’t think ESPN is ready for the BIG RED MATERHEAD, you don’t have much leverage with the Fulmer thing, i don’t like his fat ass either, we are thinking of bringing back Majors, hell i may coach them myself. Is Ron Zook doing anything? GO VOLS

Hey Walt, you do realize that this blog has different threads, right? I’d be interested to see your insightful commentary on other topics.

Just go to edsbs.com and check ’em out.

TCOAN,

Being gay is an irrational choice because women just look too damn good ; ) hence the Gaytors are just too damn irrational to be good at anything, excluding the two BB championships and the one in FB.

Congrats on at least 2 Bea Arthur references (well, Golden Girls and Bea Arthur) in one post.

Swindle keep your eyes on the prize, you are gonna buy all my beer, g-money also!

Tzubear-

Now that’s a convincing argument. Not one that I buy, but a good one nonetheless.

Okay… I’m ready for reasons 27-50… I’m far too calm this morning and need some hate fuel!
