TRIUMPH WEARS VELOUR

I’ve made the joke before, but its too apropos to not make it again:

“What’s that daddy?”

“Why that’s Mercury, the planet closest to the sun. What its doing here, I have no idea.”

Kansas cannot win a championship.

I think it’s a state law or something.

It’s Kansas. Something bad will happen.

Just like the Industrial Revolution, prohibition, and Bob Dole as president – the stars are ultimately aligned against Kansas’.

Don’t criticize the wardrobe, or he’ll have you encased in carbonite.

i got $20 that says you can hear him coming from a mile away in that fucking outfit.

ps-flame me if you want…but kansas is good.

What a svelte, handsome man!

Sincerely,
Charlie Weis

I think for his own health the powers that be will keep an undefeated Kansas out of the BCS National Title Game.

They don’t want Mangino pulling a Mama Cass on Etouffe and Boudin…

If KU actually does make it to the MNC game, there would probably be more national fan support for them than any other team in MNC history, especially if they play tOSU. Because, fat though he may be, Mangino is infinitely more likeable than Fulmer, Weis, etc.

The man is a ball with a head.

If KU makes it to New Orleans, we’ll all find out whether roux is the beverage of champions.

I wonder if the tracksuit were made of corduroy if he’d have a specially-designated assistant to follow him around with a fire extinguisher in case of combustion caused by thigh-rubbage.

I could have done without ever reading “thigh-rubbage” in regards to Mangino.

KU will eventually run into the brick wall that is OU

but

if they did somehow go to the title game, i’m setting the O/U on lucky dogs consumed by mangino on gameday alone at 38.5

Weis would be beaten by Mangino in a Speedy contest.

Biggus, you’re right, and I’m sorry. I think I just threw up in my mouth, just a little….

Somewhere, George Kostanza is smiling. The days of draping yourself in velvet becoming socially acceptable cannot be far away. (On a related note, neither can the apocalypse.)

With his little mustache, he either looks like a) a fat Charlie Chaplain, or b) Wimpy from Popeye.

“But Leela…it’s real valour.”

It’s like Zap Brannigan without his girdle – plus 200 lbs.

’member that time mangino went to the chocolate factory??

Mangino fucking rules.

I’m just pissed that the tracksuit is not available for purchase by the general public.

I guess to no one’s surprise, gameday will be in Eugene this weekend….

That’s fine by me because Alabama is 1-5 when both Gameday and I are in Tuscaloosa at the same time

The cupcakes did their job.

Wow, nice to see that someone can eat the meal-flavored gum from the Chocolate Factory and get out alive. Good for him.

Yeah, Gameday should definitely be at Bama this weekend, but that is something admirable about Oregon students standing in front of the cameras at 7AM, PST.

Either they are not going to bed on Fridays, or they are curtailing whatever it is they would otherwise be doing on Friday nights.

Also, for all the gamblers out there, just do yourself a favor and take Oregon, no matter the spread, for the first half. Erickson has been destroying people in the 2nd half all season long, but laying eggs in the 1st.

I’m just pissed that the tracksuit is not available for purchase by the general public.

For what??!

Tracksuit space for your entire town?

A tarp after a bad storm damages your roof?

An emergency parachute for yourself and the other 449 passengers on Airbus’ new jumbo jet?

Extra material to replace Grimace costumes for the every McDonald’s restaurant in the US?

A cover for the space shuttle?

A key part of a solar eclipse machine?

A carrying case for the moon?

Somebody stop me…

I love him because he’s doing his part to break down the Italian stereotypes that have really plagued my people.

So that’s what Bobby Bacala would look like had he lived for another twenty years. And ate some more canolli. And maybe some lasagna. And maybe a small child.

Mangino looks like Clemenza from ‘The Godfather’. “Leave the gun, take the canoli.”

That’s like a Zapruder film for chubby chasers.

I know it’s been said, but…since when did Jabba the Hut start dressing fairly decently?

And believe me, the entire city of Columbia asked itself “Is that fucking VELOUR?” when they saw that on television. We know it is—better to beat him in on November 24.

Ignatius J. Mangino, please stand up… if you can.

1. - I spent like 20 mins looking for that picture this morning, you bastard!!!

KU will get to the big one, apparently stop a 2-point conversion in the last seconds only to discover they had 12 men on the field.

Next play, they allow Lydell Mitchell, oops, Beanie Wells to score & lose.

Shades of Pepper Rodgers & John Riggins.

How does this guy enforce any S & C for his team ?

“Yeah, coach, we know you take conditioning real seriously”.

Krystal Burger is stocking up as we speak!
Maybe that liquor stand that sells The Grenade can work up some sort of endorsement with the inflatable grenade suit…

My God, that thing should be hovering precariously over the Macy building on Thanksgiving morn.

Re #34: Simple. “If you guys don’t fucking run, I’ll eat you.”

Works for Tom Amstutz too.

Cocktails to #22 for the double entendre.

More cocktails to #31 for the Kennedy O’Toole reference. One of the fines books ever written that.

And, finally, slap my ass and call me Sally, but if #4 and #5 are playing each other, that’s a legitimate Gameday spot. Plus, the Chik-fil-a SEC Tailgate Show will be in Tuscaloosa and it’s better anyway.

MACKENZIE: Did you hear something?

MANGINO: No, I didn’t hear anything.

MACKENZIE: Huh, that’s strange. It’s quieter here. We can concentrate without people wooshing around… That sound again. Sure you didn’t hear anything?

MANGINO: No, can’t say as I did.

MACKENZIE: Kind of like a… rustling.

MANGINO: Could be the leaves…

For our A&M/KU tailgate, I made a Mangin-O-Lantern, put it on my head and terrorized passersby. Probably one of my better tailgating outings since The Gary Barnett Incident in ’04.

eric y would remind you all that ku will definitely make it to wherever and stop saying they won’t and jay whitlow and the jayhawks will conquer the world including nebraska missouri oklahoma and colorado and if there is anything beyond those 5 jay whitlow and the jayhawks will conquer that as well and whitlow has not missed a game this year and whitlow saw all of the victories and whitlow is a jayhawk

If you could somehow put that into the family guy clip of stewie following fat people around with a tuba, it would be genius
