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.

You forgot any references to The Bear. That should be worth a sip and a shot.

Mr Pelican Pants says:
1 shot for everytime Nick Saban’s salary is mentioned in any way shape or form..
1 shot for every turnover that JPW is responsible for, and 1 additional shot if points are made off of it, be it field goal, pick 6, or fumbling on his own 3 yrd line.
1 shot for the mentioning of the ULM loss…
Hell, I’m willing to take a shot whenever JPW misses a wide open receiver….
2 shots if they even mention the fabled “Inside Trout”

A shot for every person wearing a houndstooth article of clothing. Dear god, call the paramedics before kickoff, you’ll need them by the time there’s 14:37 left in the 1st.

By the way, my liver has no dignity and is telling me to bring it on……It says it regenerates itself and I better be drinking Patron…..straight……outta the bottle cause I wont have any time to put it down based on all of these rules.

Now your not playing fair…..by the start of the third quarter, I’ll probaly be naked, curled up in a shower curtain puking on the floor of the shower for no apparent reason, and drunk dialing random women I may or may not know……

Drink everytime JPW flips his hair while on the sidelines. Finish the bottle if they replay Joe Kines halftime interview from last year.

Bonus: if any of those random women take you up on the offer, you may know them a little better (and then not remember it later if they dip out when your attempt to recreate a scene in 9 1/2 Weeks with a giant watermelon scares her off)

Signal to Noise says:
I’m so glad the intramurals rant gets a shot.
Also, add one shot any time the announcers mention Cody Hawkins being the coach’s son and any cliches that go with being the coach’s son (serious student of the game, etc. You all know these when you hear them.)

Drink every time they show CU fans. Why, there should be 30 or 40 of them at the game…

Drink while listening to Bob Marley whenever they show obviously stoned CU fans

Eric says:
If you’re doing this from home, Orson, Georgia’s alcohol purveyors would like to remind you that the state’s blue laws really suck and you should stock up on Saturday!
This has ruined many a great drinkin games…and from the looks of this, you might want to get a keg and a gallon of Jack!

I appreciate your giving me a reason to watch at least one of this season’s horrendous bowl games. Each time I hear people say that a playoff will never be implemented in D-1A because university presidents “don’t want to mess up the the bowl system” I want to rip my eyeballs out. There are barely a half dozen bowl games that I can even stomach watching, thus I love your swell idea of a drinking game.

One shot of cheap bourbon for each time we are reminded that Saban has a great recruiting class coming in and will be in the hunt for a MNC in two or three years.

Well, yeah, there’s both of those things. But I’m not busting out the Maker’s for Shreveport, it’s Kentucky Gent and a wailing liver all the way.

Shit, this bowl is made for straight Jim Beam thru and thru, old school liquor….maybe even some Dixie Dew—-look that one up, it is more like ethanol fuel….pour it on your skin and get drunk via osmosis…..

Mmmmm… Kentucky Gentleman. The Official Bourbon of Getting Shitfaced for $10 at the WLOCP. Or getting shitfaced anywhere for $10. Combine with Red Dog beer for a quality evening.

Yes! Another believer in The Gent! That swill got me through many a longhorns loss in the 90’s. Drop $10 on the bottle (dan’s liqour, 1600 lavaca woo!) and $10 more on concession sprites, by halftime youre drinking it straight out of the cup and wishing for more ice to sooth the burn. 3rd qtr starts, and you didn’t feel anything. Good times. Thankfully. Mackovic sucks.

Mr Pelican Pants says:
I hear that Coach Saban wants the crowd to do something special…..and he will tooo…..word on the street is that they are planning a “Total Houndstooth Apacolypse” which means he wants the whole crowd to wear houndstooth shirts and pants, and he will break out the Houndstooth Jerseys….weird thing is, if the crowd sits still and you stare at them, even the jerseys, you look away and it looks like they are still in front of you…nothing but tiny black and white checkerboards with a hint of crimson strategically placed…..then after the first TD he wants all the players and the strippers they hung out with to celebrate in the end zone…..

This is off the subject, but I know there a few legal type scholars who peruse this site and a buddy and I are here at work and wondering if it is legal to sleep with an emancipated 17 year old?? I’ve searched the internets and my skills have only led me to pay for info sites and im not down for that, but any help provided would be great, especially for the future prospects of my buddy.

Tebow_for_Heisman says:
Nothing to do with this post, but since there was nothing on the Emerald Bowl…
Did anyone see those completely shitty endzones? One was half grass and half clay. There was also a wall 3 feet behind it. The other endzone had a fucking triangle of rubber in the corner of it. They are just asking for a player to fuck up and ankle or knee.
I was completely stunned by that bull shit.

mlmintampa says:
31…That’s what they get for playing at scenic PacBell/AT&T Park. I think it was last year when an FSU player hit the left field wall behind the end zone.
Besides, who you rather them play in Candlestick?

Coop will be along shortly to tell you that in SC, the legal age of consent is 16.
I was willing to give my consent at 15, but alas, no girls would take me up on my offer then.

While I’m glad we are still “relevant,” you’ve been ramping up the Alabama hate lately, Orson.
I guess I should be glad to still be mocked while in a shitty bowl nobody cares about.

Orson should be required to drink whenever the announcing team describes one of the “fine young men” as “articulate” while Peter must drink whenever a player is referred to as “well spoken.”

why can’t you let the state of alabama be forgotten as it well deserves to be and jay whitlow just told me some stories of things going on in alabama locker rooms and whitlow says that it is true that we need to have a drinking bowl and according to jay whitlow the song is true that if eric y drink’s one he drinks thirteen.

Studley says:
Re: Post #36 – Orson, you hit that column out of the park. Which bowl is #2 on your list? Cotton Bowl? Not exactly always Chamber of Commerce weather here in DFW this time of year, although with Global Warming, we can always hope….although some years are interestingly and surprisingly better than others.
I think it’s because DFW is on the same Meridian (no pun intended to the city in MS) with Shreveport. Or is it Parallel? I knew I shouldn’t have cut Geography Class at LSU that day. But, hey, Spring Break in Cabo was-a-callin’.
Then there’s the stadium itself, a lasting (and evidently, permanent) monument to the ineptitude of the leaders of the City of Dallas. It should have been knocked down and replaced with JerryWorld (AKA Cowboys Stadium, which will probably end up being named American Airlines Field), which is being built in Arlington at present.

Please somebody–tell me what the hell this Eric y guy is doing….always run-on sentences about whitlow, sammie and eric, all in 3rd person, like a schizophrentic joke and all over the net rambling on different post….is it some british Tv show like Flight of the Conchords or something….bring me up to speed

I couldn’t really see where Orson eviscerated Shreveport. He certainly didn’t paint it as “teh gr8est city evarr!” but he didn’t bash it as badly as some of the commenters seem to thnk.

Nice to see Yahoo recognizes frontpage talent when it sees it.
I, however, didn’t look at the author’s name until I was halfway through the column, and saw the SMQ reference.
It made it through the editors, though.
