Around SBN: Dog Football! Which Breeds Are Best Suited For The Gridiron?

FLU, DAY 2

We get a DNF for the second day in a row thanks to whatever death-flu is currently pouring through our system. Apologies from our immune system--we're heading to the doctor, who hopefully will tell us what we want to hear, and prescribe eight fingers of bourbon and some honey for what ails us. If it worked for Jeremiah Johnson, it's got to work for us, right?


If whiskey can't cure it, then there's no cure.

i used to joke with my friends that got the flu that they were pussies b/c the flu was a myth…not unlike sasquatch, or the loch ness monster…then about 3 years ago i got the flu. fucking karma.

Orson you’ve inspired me to hit the road with tails for the people of a magical cure for what ails ya.

No, it was because you work out 7 days a week, weight room hero, that you did not get the flu.

The only year I contracted the flu was the year I got a flu shot.

Seriously, medicine is a crock.

I will say that since I started working out 3-6 days a week, I have not contracted anything that kept me from work, school, social shit, etc.

Well except for the herpes and syphilis.

But, you know, nothing ventured, nothing gained…

Just start sucking down pedialite and drive down to Gainesville, FL. The touch of Tim Tebow (not that kind, pervs) should heal you instantly.

by Brian on Jan 31, 2008 12:15 PM EST reply actions  

First DVD I ever bought? Jeremiah Fucking Johnson. Truly a fantastic film.

Oh, and any mention of Pedialyte immediately makes me think of Charlie 2na: “You baby MCs drink pedialyte…” Well, that and hanogover recovery.

by AllWhoYonder on Jan 31, 2008 12:25 PM EST reply actions  

Might I also suggest that, while on the road to recovery, you spray anything and everything in the house and/or office with extra strength Lysol.

A few years ago, about 75 percent of the people in my office missed time in about a month with flu. I Lysoled the holy shit out of everything in that office and managed to survive unscathed.

Maybe Orson contracted something from what was thought to be a woman while hanging around Bourbon Street during the NC?

Also, “Seriously,” was meant to be a thinly veiled attack on my family, as most of them are in the medical field.

Pops is a doctor, brother is a doctor, sister is a nurse.

Thank God I have redeemed the family by going into the legal field.

#12…funny!

And, Orson…my lesbian, buddhist psychic says never ever get a flu shot; and that flu only naturally occurs in those who are not in conscious balance with their soul…so look out, dude. Oh, and it isn’t usually serious, at least mostly…just kinda feels that way. Unless you lived in 1918, when it really was serious…but you might not have survived that…unless you are over 90…but I digress.

Here is a tip of my cocktail glass to your rapid recovery and the balancing of you conscious with your soul…“salud y pesetas y tiempo para gustarlo”.

Brian…I think I would probably accept that proposition…at least for awhile. I am very good at cancelling engagements…lesson learned courtesy of UGA coeds, (just don’t run into their parents later and think a civil conversation will ensue).

/begin threadjack

Jon Tenuta has taken a job on the ND staff. Not quite sure what this means, if anything, regarding Corwin Brown, ND’s DC and ace recruiter. If there is a ND defensive recruit you want to poach, it might be time to fire up the cell phone.

by maskedavenger on Jan 31, 2008 2:56 PM EST reply actions  

maskedavenger, it would appear that Tenuta is coming on as defensive backs coach to replace retiring Bill Lewis. If anything, adding Tenuta along with C Brown helps, not hurts the recruiting for ND.

Get well Spencer, drink a lot of alcohol and pass out, it always makes you forget about being sick.

Any fact finding in the area of flu research begins and ends with whiskey.

by ThreenOut on Jan 31, 2008 3:26 PM EST reply actions  

AllWhoYonder -

I like the hire (but not the timing) by ND; I was thrilled during the 15 minutes that the Kirk-Herbstreit-created- Miles-and-Tenuta-to-Michigan rumor still was possibly true.

But, what are the odds that a rival coach that wants a ND recruit will spin it as Corwin Brown is being replaced/pushed aside? Uncertainty just before signing day is rarely a good thing.

by maskedavenger on Jan 31, 2008 3:37 PM EST reply actions  

Tenuta is replacing another Georgia techie…Bill Lewis.

Keeping the tradition alive!

by hunglikehussain on Jan 31, 2008 3:44 PM EST reply actions  

good point, masked. that and a 3-9 record don’t exactly help Charlie hold all the cards during recruiting…

If you doctor is worth his salt, he’ll prescribe a cannon of PURPLE DRANK. It probably won’t cure you, but it will end the suffering.

My first assignment in the Navy out of college was to a ship named the USS Affray. My mother was the only person I ever ran into who realized that I was stationed on a ship named after a drunken brawl and she was appalled.

Trust me, we did our very best to uphold the name of that ship in the fleet. God bless the USS Drunken Brawl!

Just so you know, they do make Phenergan in a non-suppository. I love the stuff having never taken it. My fiancee is pregnant with twins and manages to sleep about 22.5 hours a day taking the pills for nausea. Those 1.5 hours she is awake is like facing a werewolf with twin chainsaw dicks.

OOC, that was outstanding.

Normally, I don’t even think to recognize Gamecock humor, as if you beat Charleston Southern in football in the opener…

then you obviously will run the table in the SEC and against…

well, you know.

FYI, Tommy is still 7-2 versus South Carolina.

Holla at “yo boy!” or whatever that means.

Coop, may I recommend that you learn these two words that will be a sufficient answer to any and all questions:

“Yes, dear”.

The best answer on marriage came from Grady on Sanford & Son. Fred’s new wife asked him “Grady, Isn’t it about time you got remarried?”

He replied back “What! And give up sex?”
