BODY COUNT, BODY COUNT: WEEK EIGHT

Don’t forget that GT’s offense is having surgery today.

http://www.ajc.com/sports/content/sports/gatech/stories/2007/10/22/choice_1022.html

ah… Cool Hand Luke reference :-)

also, how did Tennessee sustain 2 injuries on opposite ends of the body? Did Briscoe kick Taylor in the head or what?

Not that anyone here would care, but Ian Johnson is out with a bruised kidney this week, as he was last week. I can only assume that the bruising occured because he no longer has a soul there to protect it as evidenced by the summertime nuptuals.

Reason for cutting the heads of parking meters in Chapel Hill “Small town, not much to do in the evenin’.”

Not that it matters, but it’s Taylor’s toe and Briscoe’s brain. On his post-game t.v. show, Fulmer was asked when they knew that Briscoe had a concussion, and he said, “When he came to the sideline and they determined that he didn’t know what was happening.”

Using the same criteria, my personal diagnoses:

John Chavis: concussion.
Antonio Reynolds: concussion.
Dan Williams: concussion.
Xavier Mitchell: concussion.
Demonte Bolden: concussion.
Rico McCoy: concussion.
Jerod Mayo: concussion.
Ryan Karl: concussion.
Eric Berry: concussion.
Brent Vinson: concussion.
Marsalous Johnson: concussion.
Jonathan Hefney: concussion.

Me: concussion.

I may have missed some.

+1 for the Buckley joke.

Boomsday wasn’t nearly as good as Thank You For Smoking, but still funny.

Does anyone else get the sense that neither Chan Gailey nor Karl Dorrell will get the firings they so richly deserve this year? I just feel like somehow, the guillotine will break at the last second before it hits flesh.

Offensive Tackle Chunky Cornfed is out with a toe.

When the hell did injury reports become Holly Rowe pointing at the part of the body that is inflamed/lacerated/bruised/concussed and grunting?

mostly was just settlin’ an old score

Thank god no firework-related injuries to Ole Miss players, or does the Orgeron fully believe a receiver only needs 6 fingers to catch a pass?

For a second I thought the injured USF tackle was named “Water Walker,” then I remembered that was the QB at UF’s nickname.

Noel Devine……personal issues? Mmmm……
I bet this personal issue has to do with the birth of another kid from another groupie……man those Devines multiply faster than Federlines……there is a hip hop/rhyme joke here somewhere….Eventually, all these running backs he is creating, some west Virginia Pee Wee league is gonna be loaded in the next 3-4 yrs….

+1 for Cool Hand Luke

I loved the “crushed spirit” injury.

And the Dog Nation loves Chan, supports Chan and wants more Chan- Giff Smith and John Tenuta are a different matter though.

Noel Devine? Wasn’t he a dancer for Ladies Night at the Monk just off Hammondville Road?

Damn, I had week 9 in the pool for Noel Devine’s first ‘personal issue’

#5

Additional Concussion Victims:

Phat Fil
Charlie Weis
Chan Gailey
Tommy Bowden

All sure coach like it.

PSU (The team Ohio State plays)

Jerome Hayes out for season at DE
Jared Odrick out for season at DT
matt Hahn FB out for year

i’m kinda surprised baby rhino is banged up – i figured he’d just touch his shoulder with the pointer finger of his throwing hand and not only would his shoulder be healed, but a stray puppy would find its way home

(stroking chin)….So Tebow CAN be hurt….muahahahaha muahahahahaha

1. The key line regarding the fate of Karl Dorrell was in the LA Times article Orson linked to. UCLA has sold more season tickets this year than ever in the history of the program. That and the wins against USC last year and Cal this year will keep KD around.

I work with a bunch of UCLA die hards and the feelings towards KD in the real population are more lukewarm than upset. It is easy to get a distorted view from reading the raving retards at places like BruinsNation. Actually BN is funny to read when the supposed supporters of a team are bummed out because their team won a big game.

is this the beginning of the unraveling of noel devine?? while watching him look unstoppable this season i was never thinking, “man, this guy is going to be great.” i was always thinking, “how do i get in on the ‘when will noel devine fuck up’ office pool?”

1. - gotcha. I have a few in my workplace too and they’re probably on the BN side of rabid raving regarding Dorrell’s employment.

15 – AWSHURCOACHLIKIT is what your namesake says while he’s having sex with the northern half of Mississippi.

Virginia Tech QB Tyrod Taylor may or may not start due to the high ankle sprain he suffered against Duke. As an LSU fan, I know how damaging a high ankle sprain can be for a dual threat QB (Matt Flynn). Not until we saw a healthy Flynn against Auburn did I realize how much the sprain was really affecting him. This makes the upset of the #2 team in the land less likely because Sean Glennon is…well, Sean Glennon.

1. - Concussions…Charlie Weis….Middle Fingers….Angels Depts:

I do not think Cheseburgers Charlie had a concussion but whiplash from straining his neck as he saw his defensive players whif at USC receivers, running backs, song girls, cheetos salesmen….

USC is probably getting its injured players down to single digits this week, and will be ready to make their annual fall run.

The big debate over here in La-La land is whether or not Booty, once his middle finger heals, gets his job back from jacked-up Sanchez. Angel Carroll is refusing to answer the question.

With Brown and Lumpkin out, Mark Richt will have to do the unthinkable…let a running back get in a rhythm, and then stick with that back.

Until, of course, he gets in the Red Zone, then it’s time for the Read Draw baby!!!!

It wouldn’t be the first running back Chanball has blown out….

Please get well soon TC!

#19, OC Phil: Read rumors someplace that said that ucla Athletic Director had already sort of given the head coaching job to Walker, the ucla Defensive Coordinator. He denied the rumor, but it makes sense. ucla is too cheap to pay market value for a top coach, and hiring a hot shot from within is how they like to operate, regarding the football team.

The Bruinsnation.com site is so ridiculous, it is very funny to me. I do not think many take it seriously.

Signal To Noise: Why fire Gailey in a rebuilding year?

Not only did he manage to get to bowl games despite saddling himself with Reggie Ball at QB, but his last 2 recruiting classes have been arguably the best in Tech’s history. Not to mention he’s a year removed from a trip to The ACC Championship Game – albeit a lackluster trip.

Other than Choice, they had to break in a new starting QB, and replace the most talented player to ever don Gold and White.

No mention of Hart of Henne?

What’s all this crybaby shit about hurt players? Hell, I suspened 5 players this past Saturady and still crushed that middle school football team from Knoxville. I don’t have time for this shit.

I was at the WfVU game against Miss State Saturday. I sat just a few rows behind the WfVU bench and looked at Noel all day. I can tell you first hand that he definitely is suffering from some sort of invisibility. He had his uniform on, but none of the coaches seemed to be able to see him.

Could be that big fuckin doghouse he seems to be in.

#6: See, the beauty of the guillotine is that if the rope snaps, that actually means CERTAIN death because there is no way to stop its downward march to the victim.

not to turn this into a GT blog, but choice’s surgery was successful, meaning that he won’t be back for VT, but could be back for all the rest of the regular season and beyond.

from the LA Times Article: He desires to play very badly this week. – Karl Dorrell on Christian Taylor…

KD, I know what you think you meant, but you’ve got the adverb placed such that it sounds like young Mr Taylor is trying to suck. Here’s where you’re going wrong:

Example 1) Christian Taylor very badly wants to play.

Example 2) Karl Dorrell wants to coach very badly.

(Of course it might not be deliberate on KD’s part; I suppose he could be the anti-Les Miles.)

“Why fire Gailey in a rebuilding year?”

Zuh?

Gailey called this the deepest and most talented team he’s had since being here before the season started. Coaches and players all said this season would be a disappointment without a return trip to the ACCCG and then promptly shat out a 2-3 record in their first 5 ACC contests.

The word on the street is that 7-5 and another loss to UGA could very well equal a new coach next year.

Vegas odds are off the board for this being a convenient way for Noel Devine to avoid a summons for a child support hearing.

Meanwhile, to add injury to injury, Maryland just lost its 3rd and final pass rush specialist for the year, in addition to the entire projected starting O-line from the spring and the top 2 quarterbacks. Thanks God, you cocksmoking asshole. At least the tradition of a tremendous punting game is alive and well in Riot Park.

From multiple other WVU fan boards re: last week Noel not playing.
Apparently, in the off week WVU had, Noel was out of town for a few days to either witness the birth of a new baby or go visit the baby who had just been born.
He missed a few practices w/ coach approved abscences, and the coach RR chose not to use him re:not prepared for the foe of that week. Apprently, ND knew this would be the result (not playing) before taking the abscence. From what we can gather, he’s not in the doghouse, but chose to miss practice w/ coaches permission, to go visit another one of his fastly multiplying offspring.
I think that is 3 now BTW…. Anyhow, from what we can gather, there should be no issue with him playing this week… doesn’t appear he is in the doghouse, and has no other issues that have been brought to public light so far, and is expected to be a go for Saturday (So long as RR wants to use him…..) RR has said frequently lately, that he does plan to continue to use SS more and more (Slaton) as he was not getting 1/2 as many carries for a couple games there as usual (and hence didn’t break 100 yards….) that game plan may keep ND out or limited…..
again, all gathered speculation from many WVU fan sites…..

Too bad you didn’t use the uncensored Body Count album cover for historical accuracy.

There goes the neighborhood! Ah, memories of playing Body Count during the LA riots are flooding back.
