BLOGTOBERFEST:ONE TO GROBE ON EDITION
Blogtoberfest: Sometimes, we do one.
Jim Grobe is jowly enough for tradition at Michigan, who plan on getting one of those fax dealy-bobs in the office as soon as they get off the belt massager at the gym.
Rick Neuheisel at Duke? You betcha, per da Fanhouse.
Kyle notes in just one, just one we say, of his ongoing and superb series of bowl previews that it was a bad year to be a morbidly obese offensive genius. Sir, Mark Mangino disagrees vehemently! And is eyeing that tasty samosa you left in the Indian take-out bag!

Two entered. One left.
Colorado State quietly replaces the retired Sonny Lubick with CSU alum and former assistant Steve Fairchild, current offensive coordinator for the Buffalo Bills.
3rd Saturday in Blogtober has the proper name for Bobby Petrino now: Pignocchio.
Cocktails, distributed in great and indiscriminate quantities in your direction, sir.
Gerry Dorsey lightens the whole nervous, boiler-room feel of the Coaching Tilt-a-Whirl by pointing us toward this LSU performance artist, who is actually a superb dancer.

wait…I don’t understand…how can you dance to Mr. Roboto without actually doing The Robot??
Although, I think the best part was the commentor, “yeah, yeah he’s sober.”

That mascot probably thinks manginos weird, but I think he’s weird. He’s always smilin and lookin off to the left, as if somethin happened over there that made eeeeeeverybody happy

That orange was asking for it, I tell ya. Taunting Mangino by giving a “thumbs up” while standing next to him, looking all tasty, juicy, and delicious… you just don’t do that to a fat man who needs to keep his blood sugar from droping.

I did thoroughly enjoy the little dance exposition, but I must say that the female LSU fan/stripper who put on a show a number of weeks back was slightly more entertaining… then again, Mr. Roboto here probably didn’t ask for an additional $25 to dance another song…

Mangino: The fuck…?
Photographer: Fruit, Mark. It’s fruit.

ORSON,
I will say this and I never looked at it this way….
But you cant deny it….
THE NFL IS A STEPPING STONE FOR COACHES TO GET TO THE SEC!!!!!!!!!! You cant deny it, the BIG 10 cant say that, the PAC 10 can come close, but no conference has , collectively, has more denials from a NFL coach, then stepping up to a SEC podium…..
Nick Saban thinks Petrino should have quit earlier to get the Auburn job…..

There’s no such thing as Blogtoberfest!!
Ya used me, Orson, ya used me!

The best part is the number of passers by who don’t even bat an eye at Mr Tiger Fan. Reason – this behavior is not that uncommon at LSU pre-game.
And where is my mustache Wednesday mother fucker?

In case people havent fiquered it out yet, Les Miles is the Michigan coach…he says he is not a candidate…because he IS the coach….he is not gonna blow a chance at the bonus he will get when LSU beats tOSU, and once the ink is dry on that check he will be announced as the head coach at Michigan….then LSU will have to wait to get Jack Del Rio….or Spurrier since Tyrone Nix left to go to Ole Miss and he knows SOS will be possibly in the mix after the bowl/NFL season is over…

Goddamn. These people are my neighbors.
That wasn’t even a tailgate — just a average Wednesday between classes.

Mr Pelcian Pants – I think you’re more drunk than dancing Tiger Fan. But that is a funny scenario if it plays out.
by The Last Dragon on Dec 12, 2007 6:12 PM EST reply actions
Mangino and the Orange are congruent!
Proof via syllogism:
Mangino is fat. Obie the Orange is fat. Therefore, Mangino=Obie the orange!
by Imposter Doug on Dec 12, 2007 6:22 PM EST reply actions
Re #9: Getting paid to coach two places at once would be a level of douchebaggery that would make even Nick Saban jealous.
by DevilGrad on Dec 12, 2007 6:57 PM EST reply actions
Mangino doesn’t have any university handlers to steer him away from photo ops with a an orange that’s smaller than he is? As Job Bluth would say… come on!
And Mr. Pelican Pants at #7,
“THE NFL IS A STEPPING STONE FOR COACHES TO GET TO THE SEC!!!!!!!!!! You cant deny it,”
For the first, and probably last time, coming from me…
10 cocktails to you, sir! Well done. Write it down.

Thought this might amuse you or be fodder for a post:
Duke is taking application online for their head coaching position, right next to a nursing assistant.

Thank you thank you…in this season, coming from an Auburn fan who has nearly lost their whole coaching staff in the last 3 weeks, I’ll take all the cocktails u throw my way. You have to know, ya’ll would have Petrino if Tubs went to Ar-Kansas…Tony Franklin, on the other hand, was the whistle blower at Kentucky who threw Mumme under the bus, and he was Rush Probsts’ consultant for the spread O in 2001

The Spread Eagle offense…..that name will be legendary…used it a few times myself…
by Mr Pelican Pants on Dec 12, 2007 8:22 PM EST reply actions
Yep. Mangino’s definitely rounder than the orange. In fact, for all we know, he may have simply acquired an orange moon that will orbit around him on the sidelines.

I like how there are people standing around not staring at the guy dancing. Like that shit just happens all the time. Nothing out the ordinary.
by karlhungus12 on Dec 12, 2007 9:34 PM EST reply actions
I know it’s been kinda beaten into the ground on this and other forums, but good God, Mangino is fat.
He seriously needs to hit the treadmill in the offseason or he won’t live another 10 years.
by PW on Dec 12, 2007 9:51 PM EST reply actions
Whats the over/under of Mangino dying a death only rivaled in the movie "Se7en’???…..I think Lou Holtz was the other actor in the scene where they are in the room with all the christmas tree air fresheners, and I think it was Lou Holtz lying on the bed, they werent sure if he was alive or not……..he sure fooled us….

That Orange is thinking he should have gotten a smaller Mangino costume.

Whoever said the NFL is a stepping stone for the SEC is a bigger fucktard then orson when he wears that stupid hawaiin shirt with the poofy chest hair. The SEC is where you go when you want to get a few W’s on your side after a failed NFL coaching career. If you can win in the NFL, that takes skill, if you can win in college, that takes money and hot coeds.

Is there some story on the LSU dance guy? His act reminds me of Andy Kaufman.
Or is it Kafka?

“Gob Bluth says Come on!

Quite right. Come ON!
Mr. Pants at 18,
“You have to know, yall would have Petrino if Tubs went to Ar-Kansas

I know. In my opinion, we dodged a bullet. I’m a Tuberville man.

@SonofSamford – cocktails to you.
Also, Cutcliffe to Duke?
Any man who can win 60% of his games at Ole Miss would be a great hire in Durham, right?

Top o’ the fucktard to you too, fucktard.
If the SEC was soooo easy to get in, why is it now considered the best conference, with the best coaches?
The SEC is fixing to have a 5+ yr run where it at least play for the MNC, if not win it all…..and thats not from mediocre coaching, I promise….Lets see, I can coach kids who HAVE to listen to me and want to be there &work 12 hr days for excellent money, and be revered in the state I coach in, or I can go the NFL, try to consult grown men who make 3 times what I do while working 18-20 hr days while dealing with egomaniac owners and unrealistic fans and not see my family…..plus have 25 yr olds get in my face on National TV, and I cant hit them without getting sued….
if you want to write something, come after me,not some blogger kid who likes to wear Tommy Bahama shirts without manscaping….he’s a kid, trying to blog the right thing, come after me, Im MAN, I’m not quite 40!!!

I know shoes are considered a luxury item in Louisiana, but can somebody buy the dancin’ coonass some new shoes??

Well, sure.
Anybody would look great dancin’ in those knee-length purple socks.
by NRBQ on Dec 13, 2007 12:35 PM EST reply actions
The reason that is the ‘best conference ever of all time’ is simply because of scheduling. Pick 3 terrible opponents, beat them because their total football funding is <100,000, then win 3 conference games and you will goto a bowl. Dont believe, look at south carolina and kentucky. Both these teams were ranked and ranked highly this season, both will be getting bowls, and both dont even have a winning conference record. NFL failure saban is a relative SEC overachiever by splitting his conference games and going 4-4. Just look at vanderbilt, theyhad bowl hopes down to the wire because they beat 3 horrible teams, then just had to win 3 of 8 against some mediocre teams. Its not that hard to look good int he SEC. I mean lets look at LSU’s schedule for this year,
Mississipi state….CRAP
Middle Tennessee…..CRAP
South Carolina…..CRAP
Tulane…..CRAP
Kentucky…..CRAPlike, but im not 100% sold on full crappiness
Auburn……Mediocre at best, can smell like something aweful
Alabama….CRAP
Louisiana Tech….CRAP
Mississippi……CRAP
Arkansas…sure crap, but again a debatable one
Tennessee…..crappy, but debatable
I left off florida and virgina tech, the two teams that are more good then shitty.
The SEC isn’t hard boys.
