THE INDEPENDENCE BOWL DRINKING GAME
We’re out of time for the other two bowl previews, but we do have an exciting offer: Peter Bean will join us at 7:50 p.m. on Sunday on a very special edition of EDSBS Live: The Independence Bowl Drinking Game.
It’ll be just like that.
We will have the show for the first half only to preserve our livers and the shreds of dignity we have left. Drinks will be taken for the following, but are not limited to:
–Bob Davie uses of the word “footBAW”
–Bob Davie uses the word “YOUUUUGE”
–A shot each time the Hawkins “DIVISION ONE FOOTBALLL” rant is mentioned.
–A sip each time the corporate sponsor is used.
–Sip for scenic shots of Shreveport. Double if a casino is shown, or if the shot is not actually scenic at all.
–A shot if John Parker Wilson throws a pick six. We know that by this rule, we’re drinking at least one shot.
–Sip for any mention of Bama’s repeat visit to Shreveport
–Sip for three and outs. We’re gonna be HAMMERED on this one.
Leave any other suggestions below. Enjoy the weekend, which is loaded with football. Pun possibly intended.
See you Sunday night.

Colorado getting blasted 27-0 early in the 2nd quarter.
Plus I’m banging Coach Hawkins’ wife while he’s at the game.

John Parker Wilson = my Albatross
and #30: I can’t as of yet represent myself as an atty, but I believe what matters is the actual age of the individual, not the fact that she’s emancipated. The fact that you’re asking, however, basically eliminates any chance that only two people know about your conundrum.

WTF is a “Mongolian Special”? Is that an authentic Hawk uber crazy play or is that just the announcer being a douchebag?

All the bloggers at the sporting news that defended the filming location for Roadhouse 2 surely turned a shade of red when the Eldorado was shown for like 10 seconds on tv.

FYI- Bear Bryant fingered Nick Saban when he was young, just in case anyone wondered why Saban has such stiff wood for his niece.

Orson, you’re such a dip-sh!t you wouldn’t know Shreveport if you saw it. Come on down here and start spouting off that crap, and I’m sure someone will be glad to show you up-close and personal the dead cows floating down the Red River. You freakin’ schmuck!

I just got like an 8% approval rate from the Sporting News queers. Guess Shreveport is an advertising mecca for the SN, and Orson is not their favorite author. So much for an easy entry to that world Mr. Hall.

Jake (back to #82): Actually I remember that show and JJ Dy-no-mite Walker. I just thought it was an odd connection to make in this context.
Now get back to ripping on Shreveport.

This post over at TSN may be my favorite. To give a little background, among the early posts, someone wrote the following:
Enjoy your looser bowl while is lasts.
Seizing the opportunity to bash this Shreveport hater, someone else wrote the following:
Oh and it should be: Enjoy your looser bowl while IT lasts. Not: Enjoy your looser bowl while IS last. What grade are you in really??

That is funny. And why is it that few people on these internets know the difference between the words “lose” and “loose”? Is it our education system?

It might be because English is a bastard of a language. Consider the following:
lose rhymes with booze
but
Bose (the stereo system), hose, nose, pose, rose, do not

Brian O'Blivion says:
Maybe…but if we are going to use the rhyming excuse, loose also rhymes with “noose”, “goose”, and “moose”.
I’m usually not a grammar police type, but I see that one alot, and always wonder if it’s just stupidity or an honest mistake.

Orson – As a native of Shreveport, all I can say is that you absolutely nailed it. Like most towns there are some bright spots. (Southern Maid donuts and the margaritas + scenery at Superior Bar & Grill immediately come to mind.) However, for the most part, it’s more like a place in which Todd Graham would feel right at home.
