CURIOUS INDEX, 11/21/07

Oh, happy day. Hey, Florida State's got three huge receivers and loves to throw the patented Jeff Bowden jump ball even with Jimbo Fisher's new offense. Hey, Florida's got a banged-up secondary and screaming liability freshman Jacques Rickerson at corner. We saw a woman slug down a 22oz. can of malt liquor and throw it into the bushes next to a MARTA station this morning. That's our soul up there, potentially. (BTW, we don't think it's necessary to put D in quotes when referring to the Gator 'D', as the Gainesville Sun does. That's slang for 'dick,' and if the Gators' collective penis is hurting, there's clinics and antibiotics for that.) Tim Tebow, though, will continue the tradition of being a big, evangelical, other-cheek-turning Florida quarterback by letting FSU's talk of him "going down" in the game Saturday by letting the trash talk "motivate him" instead of trash-talking back. Whatcha gonna do, Timmy, when they hit you late? Say "Please don't do that?" The Michigan head coaching search will begin with interviews with Carr assistants Mike Debord and Ron English. This is all a matter of due diligence and courtesy. Repeat that phrase eight to ten times in a row to yourselves, Michigan fans. Repeat, and rock back and forth hugging your knees in the basement like you just saw the crimson face of Lucifer himself. OBC regrets his early suggestions that South Carolina could contend in the SEC this year. "I was probably unrealistic at some point thinking that our team could compete this year. Looking back, obviously, I was wrong," Spurrier said Tuesday. "At the end of last year, playing Florida close, winning the last two, playing everybody close, I just thought maybe our team would be ready. Obviously, it didn't quite work out that way." So do we. We had them as high as six, further proof of why you never, ever, ever use a late season surge the prior year as evidence for high preseason ranking despite obvious roster holes and instability at the quarterback position. But we didn't have Michigan in their customary 3 hole, at least, so we don't feel completely stupid. Mostly stupid, yes; completely stupid...well, not yet. Finally, we blame the holiday for the double YouTubage, but the attention to detail and superb fighting technique on display in this video are both too good not to share--even if we're leery of referring to young women collectively as "poon."

I have to post my Ode to Tim Tebow, just in case FSU’s trash talk is right:
Goodbye Tim Tebow
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to run yourself
While those around you waited for the ball
They crawled out of the pile
And Urb whispered into your brain
They set you on the treadmill
And they made you change your game.
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Always knowing who to throw to
When the rush set in
And The NFL would have liked to have known you
But you were just a kid
Your shoulder burned out long before
Your legend ever did

That Poon Fight was better than the Zapruder film.

Despite Florida’s glaring lack of secondary depth, I still see them taking the game but closer than the 13-4 point spread woul indicate. On the way there, I see Percy Harvin and Myron Rolle getting into it a little bit after a play, I see a huge day for special teams, and I see a random FSU defensive player performing the equivalent of a Zed-on-Marcellus Wallace act on one of Florida’s skill players without the referees calling a penalty. You know, the usual…

Orson rides Marta to work? I salute you sir. That takes balls.
On the flip side, were it not for Marta, I’d have not made ith ome after the debacle that was the GT-ND game in atlanta in ’06.

Brian – it is quite fitting that Elton John is serenading young Tebow.
Nice poon fight! The dude on the left of the Duck chick was so uncomfortable. The guy in the hat in front knew the drill and was hoping for the same thing that we all were – that the two chicks would kiss.

Why would Percy Harvin and Myron Rolle go see a play on their way to the game? That’s the worst prediction I’ve ever heard.

If you speed it up you can tell the blond is cursing, and she’s kinda hot, so that just ups the ante. Thats all it’s missing, is the full speed view.

Rolle getting into anything with Percy would most certainly have to occur AFTER a play because Harvin would have to wait in the endzone for Rolle to catch up and start jawing. You know, the usual.

PW:
I thought I was joking as well. But that Myron Rolle theatrical write-up you found it too funny to be made up, I guess Percy will have to one-up him by scoring on a reverse, hushing the crowd and delivering the following:
“What’s he that wishes so?
My cousin Westmoreland? No, my fair cousin;
If we are mark’d to die, we are now
To do our country loss; and if to live,
The fewer men, the greater share of honour.”
Oh yeah, and I’m getting the Rolly-Harvin premonition from the supposed bad blood between the two stemming from their 2006 Army All-American Bowl time together and the hilarious comments from Harvin after burning Rolle during last year’s game in Tallahassee…

Re #19, the Ducks can take some consolation that despite getting their tails kicked on the field and in the stands, in both cases people easily distracted by shiny things thought they were prettier when it all started.

If you are an FSU fan, then, like most fans in the section I sit in, you would analogize X Lee to Othello, and D Weatherford to Iago,
I’m sure that’s exactly what those fans are doing when they “put up the X sign for the ‘X-Man.’”

I’m sure some of you have seen this already, but it’s great unintentional comedy for the SEC crowd. For the rest of us its just informative. Like this, “Just down the street, at the Gold Club Cabaret (that’s a fancy name for strip club), the sign is the more regionally flavorful Geaux Tigers.” So thats what those are, good to know, thanks NPR!

Yeh, I watched that game and saw the chicks jockeying for position, mainly the Arizona chick, who was beyond Fubar, just throwing so many elbows, it look like Jabbar vs Byrd underneath the basket, til the chick with the tight white shirt finally had enough and pulled a Steven Segal—like move before the camera cut away, all we needed was 10 more seconds and we would have seen a Lite Beer commercial with the clothes flying off, and I would have been pouring on the baby oil..oops wait….uhhh never mind…carry on….

After reading the breathtaking “poon” commentary today, which is quite funny, I can see why TCOAN has decided not to play with us anymore. Rats!
This is something she might say to our less esteemed comedians today:

Collective nouns, or perhaps poonerisms?
You could go for alliteration: a pod of poon.
You could describe when it all goes wrong: a murder of poon.
But I think naming it after a potential location of same might work: a grotto of poon.

a) “Poon” is a compliment. It means “pretty”
