A sad day for NCAA football (and for those of us who find water to be overrated) -

Now sold in 80 countries in dozens of flavors, Gatorade was born thanks to a question from former Gator Coach Dwayne Douglas, Cade said in a 2005 interview with The Associated Press.
He asked, ‘’Doctor, why don’t football players wee-wee after a game?’’
I have a difficult time imagining any grown man, let alone a football coach, asking why players don’t WEE-WEE.

Magnificent doesn’t quite do it.
Maligned?
Misinformed?
Misguided?
I’m at a loss

I’m proud he was a Navy man, except for that “wee wee” thing.

I was thinking this season, let alone the coaching changes was more akin to the ending of the movie
“Reservoir Dogs” or any other Quinton Territino movie

I saw him in an interview for a television thing telling the story of Gatorade, and “wee wee” is exactly what he said. Coming from him, it seemed quaint and odd and far closer to just right than you’d guess if you hadn’t seen it.
He also noted in that interview that Gatorade was designed to replace certain fluids…and the first batches tasted like it. So of course the freshmen were made to try it out first. I always loved that part of the story.
It’s all a useful reminder that good things can come from one’s hated rival after all…especially since I don’t believe there’s any evidence that the gentleman ever owned a pair of jean shorts, or sported a mullet.
Requiescat in pace, Dr. Cade, and may you enjoy eternal refreshment.

Some more thoughts on the new movie’s title:
The…
Mediocre
Milquetoast
Misunderstood
Mismatched
Maladjusted
Seven.
And Godspeed, Dr. Cade. Enternal refreshment sound very nice.

Bruce Feldman has said that Norm Crow and Mike Leach are both interested in the UCLA job.

Bill Callahan wasn’t just magnificent, he was doing an excellent job in every area. It’s too technical for you to understand.

They remind me of the “Super Friends” version of the Legion of Doom more than the Magnificent Seven. I mean, I can totally see Dennis as Luthor and Ed Orgeron as Solomn Grundy. Maybe Callahan as the Riddler.

Well, Norm Chow is asian (from ASIA) and Mike Leach is a pirate, so they’d both be minority hires.
If only Mike Leach were a black pirate. Shoe-in.

‘wee wee’ is what Cade chose to say in retelling the story. The footbaw coach, for certain, said piss. Dr. Cade was too quaint to retell it in all its original glory.

The addition of Bill Doba, Phil Bennett, Joe Novak, and Karl Dorrell will make for an Ocean’s Eleven.

Speaking of pirates, Mike Leach walked into a bar with a steering wheel on his crotch…
The bartender says " Do you realize there is a steering wheel on your crotch?"
Mike Leach says “Arrgggh…its drivin ’ me nuts!”
This is why we love Mike Leach and hopes he gets the Kentucky job, with Cap’n Hook for Offensive Coordinator, and Cap’n Crunch for defensive coordinator, and Cap’n Morgan for Special teams…
