MAHALO-VERDRIVE: THE NIGHT SHIFT, UGA/HAWAII

This here’s the night shift, motherfuckers, so stand up to avoid blood clots and join us for the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans. There’s no way Georgia won’t win this game! Their inevitability is biblical fact! Like Archduke Franz Ferdinand, no man can stop them! Not even Fran Tarkenton’s power mullet!
8:33: No anthem will equal the glory of the Banner as performed by a band called Bonerama. New Orleans, you lead into life dick-first.
8:43: Hawaii gets an instant advantage as the rainbow flags on the sideline will keep Georgia from putting their hands directly on Hawaii players, since that would be gay and gay catches like the influenza and the AIDS.
8:57: That’s the coolest fucking catch interference penalty we’ve ever seen. Did we say cool? We meant dirty. No, we meant totally fucking awesome.
9:03: Dennis Haysbert, we will drive however the fuck we want. We glom this attitude directly from Georgia’s rushing defense, who is driving however the fuck they want through Hawaii’s defense. A gimp-ankled Knowshon Moreno just scored a TD. Boy, this is gonna be a colonoscopy of a game.
9:12: From our attorney, concerning FOX’s overhead cam:
that skycam looks like Number 5 from Short Circuit
I wonder if Steve Gutenburg is running it
It has more personality than Thom Brennaman. That’s for sure.
9:37: Everything about this game sucks, unless you’re a Georgia fan: zero time for Brennan to throw, zero champizzle left in the fridge, zero hope that Georgia won’t just run the little Soulja-boy dancing turbobastard Knowshon Moreno when and wherever they please, and zero interest from the announcers, since Thom Brennaman is announcing the game with the verve and enthusiasm of a sedated zombie.
9:59: And Colt Brennan throws his first pick, and Hawaii is limpdicked and sinking, and this game never should have happened. To make things worse, Thom Brennaman isn’t even registering as someone speaking English anymore: his vocal cords thrum dully on, attempting to convey some information we can’t perceive through the thick fart-cloud of his narration. They mention that UGA gets his own crypt in Sanford Stadium, and he says “Let’s hope that’s a long way off.” Why did you even say this, Thom? What the fuck does this perform besides establishing that you are capable of the least in humane courtesy? Amuse us and say, “I bet that dog would eat the dead body of its owner, but only after a few days. It would definitely wait a few days.”
10:13: And just as Hawaii pulls off one good play, Jason Rivers gets to talk to his ancestors for a few minutes has he’s blasted from hell to breakfast by a Georgia defender. Georgia will make sure you get the picture by burning a picture of Queen Liliuokalani and giving the bagpipe to their collected girlfriends on the sidelines. WE GET IT YOU’RE BETTER PLEASE DON’T HURT THE MAGICAL FAIRIES OF HAWAII.
11:02: June Jones says Brennan’s had things open, but can’t hasn’t had the protection to see them. This means Hawaii’s done, done, done, and that Thom Brennaman’s somnambulent announcing, bad for baseball, will get even worse as Georgia’s defense tries to put the real spicy concussions on the Hawaii qb. If you see another post after this, be shocked, since this sucks like no one’s business and can’t possibly get any better.
(And of course Pete Carroll has his own little person. He speaks horse and can tell you have a fever just from the way your right eye looks a bit milky. He’s Pete Carroll, imbued with powers you cannot understand.)
We’re going to bed, and if you want to send a message to Fox, you should too. When Animals Attack is fine when it’s huge animals almost eating people; watching Georgia really try to kill Colt Brennan is just sick.

Hey Thom, Hey Charles – It is ABSOLUTELY fucking necessary to chant out what frauds these guys are. We must never have more noise as to how a WAC or some such team is EVER legit.
I hope the Dawgs hang 60. I also want to see what punks these Hawaii fools are. Humiliate the stew out of them so they never come back to the mainland thinking they belong.

This should shut up the whiney fucks who always bitch about an undefeated team not playing for the national championship and argue bias against a non-BCS league. Undefeated means nothing without playing someone. And, I’m not even saying that a team needs to have a top 30 schedule, just play someone, anyone. Get a couple of solid wins, and then we can maybe talk “playing for it all”. Seriously, nothing against Hawaii’s players, they didn’t make the schedule and they went out and beat everybody. And, I know that Washington could have been a better win if Washington didn’t suck so much, but still.

Can we go back to talking about hair? This “defense” of Hawai’i is a bit embarrassing, and just awkward given that it’s happening during a completely dominating performance by Georgia. “Don’t look at the beatdown behind the curtain…”

Absolutely agree. I’m a huge proponent of equal access for non-BCS schools (being a fan of one), but Hawai’i’s schedule smelled fraudulent from a long way off. Frankly, it pisses me off that Hawai’i gets the paycheck for playing Charleston Southern and Eastern Washington at home while my school actually tests itself (and sometimes wins) in places like Norman, Austin and (coming up) Columbus. Hawai’i took the punk’s way in and got punked.
Besides, Hawai’i can’t win games against decent teams on the road. Seriously, BYU–from among the non-BCS set–would have at least given Georgia a better game.
There was no Boise or Utah this year, though. Those teams were legit and proved it.

Fuck the BCS selectiion committee. These are horrible games. And, I don’t blame the teams (Illinois, Hawaii, possibly Kansas). If someone offers you a BCS bowl and the check that goes with it, you don’t politely decline.
Leaving out Mizzou was insane. Including Illinois, a little less insane, but Florida was more deserving (even considering the Michigan loss). Including Hawaii was stupid based on their schedule. I think everyone assumed that since Boise State pulled off the seemingly impossible last year, that that is now going to be the norm for an undefeated non-BCS team. It’s not. I hope for the sake of the bowls that Kansas shows something and the Orange Bowl is a good game.

OK, I’m pretty sure if I were blind and tuned in 15 minutes ago, I wouldn’t even know this was a football game and would think I had stumbled on Hawaii’s version of one of those “season recap” shows teams all put together. When was the last time Georgia was even mentioned? 10pm?
If I were a UGA fan, I’d be borderline homicidal about the announcing.

141: at least in the Rose Bowl it was interesting in the 3rd quarter, when Illinois looked like they would make it 21-17. At least they kept it semi-competitive for a while before they rolled over and died. This, on the other hand, is just sad and embarrassing from the start.
But at least they’re having fun out there, or some such shit. I’m just waiting for the inevitable Brett Favre reference.

This is just freakin’ awful. Previous BCS-busters have been given shite teams to play (think Utah-Pitt, or that Boise had to pull miracle stuff to eke out a win against the weakest of the 6 conf champs) – but Hawaii got to take a bite of what might be the hottest team in the country. If Utah had been made to play Texas (or Cal, for that matter) in 2004, or if Boise had run into USC in 2006, things would have been different.
UGA should be ordered to bite clean through the leg of anybody who calls time out for the rest of the game…then set loose on Thom-boy’s nuts.
