CURIOUS INDEX, 2/18/08

Perrillouxse Times. This weekend's story of great intrigue is the fate of Ryan Perrilloux. Our source at LSU says that there's nothing official to the story yet, but that's cagey propriety at its best. Perrilloux, previously associated with a sketchy casino visit thingy, may or may not have left LSU this weekend. Kevin went large with this, and message boards like Orangebloods have been posting all sorts of exciting and totally unsubstantiated rumors that we'll believe because: A. This is Louisiana. Here's a list of factors we've heard in conjunction with this story: casinos, poker games, cash, gambling debt, gambling addiction, parental meddling, cocaine, illegal benefits, and extortion. What is actually happening will never be known; this seems a certainty in this case, especially given factors A, B, and C above. The knowns here we can focus on: LSU's only experienced qb is a grave liability conduct-wise, may be gone from the team, and will make any proposed bid for a repeat SEC/MNC title for LSU even shakier than than it may have been without Glenn Dorsey, who's left for the NFL. Dark things lurk here, but at this moment, there's much ado about nothing. Take anything you hear with generous heaps of salt--again, refer to factors A, B, and C above. Colquitt should have punted. Yup, Britton Colquitt got a DUI. The Fulmer Cup entry will follow shortly, but without parsing the numbers, this should put Tennessee where it should be: in the lead. Roger Sonsini, the high school assistant who insinuated that Darrell Scott's recruitment was a bit sketchier than the average high school recruiting process, has been fired for the remarks. The MZone has the heartwarming story of Buckeyes marrying at the White Castle, a practice we'll defend heartily here. First, White Castle is superb grub, and just as good a place to take a fifty percent gamble with your precious life as anywhere. It's also cheaper than a church, and in a recession, probably a wiser choice financially. Finally, if you get married at a White Castle, you're sure to share one of the most intimate features of marriage with your significant other immediately: explosive, tear-inducing, bat-killing flatulence. On this President's Day, let's salute the ultimate in underrated Presidents: the great continent-grabber himself, James K. Polk. Whinnying at ya, dark horse. |

This Perrilloux thing is just awesome. Like an Art Schlichter, Quincy Carter cocktail.

I know Art Schlichter. Art was friend of mine and you Ryan Perriloux are no Art Schlichter. Anyone can casino gamble. Stiff a bookie for a few hundred grand, then we’ll see what a real gambler looks like.

My sources tell me that RP’s locker has been cleaned out. More to make a point than to suggest that he’s kicked off the team. But I do live in Louisiana as well so make of it what you will.

“White Castle is superb grub”
LIES!!!
My one and only experience with White Castle began with an innocent late-night drunk snack and ended the next morning with me sitting on the can, gripping the seat, feet pressed against the bathtub, ankles shackled together by my jeans, listening to spiderweb cracks develop in the porcelain from the continuous firehose-level force being applied, and cursing my creator.

Honsetly, on the RP story, it’s like the John Parker Wilson factor at Alabama for us Auburn fans: Alabama is actually worse with him and, therefore, any true Auburn fan would give a kidney in order to save JP’s life only if he is guaranteed to play in, and subsequently lose, another Iron Bowl. Of course, right after the game we hit JPW with a truck and leave him in a iced tub to get our shit back, but thats neither here nor there. So I find it a shame that RP is gone, because our odds of beating LSU were probably better with him under center.

Um, nice ditty on James Buchannan, not James K. Polk.
As a decendant of Mr. Polk, the family requests a correction on the blog.

1. “i’m not even supposed to be here today.”
2. as an LSU fan, this kills us , in my opinion, if perriloux is gone….go from 8-10 wins to 6-8 if he is truly gone….press conference later with lester….
“Have a great day.”

Perrilloux just needs to go ahead and videotape himself urinating on a 14-year-old girl to make the legend complete. Twenty bucks says he’s scrapping for a starting spot on some af2 team five years from now.

I, for one, look forward to the end of the kicking Colquitt era at Tennessee, if not for anything more than to get Rece Davis to shut up about it.
O, I understand you are getting a new partner for EDSBS?
You are not going to start focusing on the work in which you are actually compensated, are you?

@ wes,
if you think you have a better chance at beating lsu without rp, you are not familiar with their depth chart…or rp for that matter.
by gerry dorsey on Feb 18, 2008 10:41 AM EST reply actions
I hope the Perilloux stories are true, but only because they are entertaining. I am not impressed by him as a QB.
RP reminds me of a less-talented Jamarcus Russell, who also unimpressed me and was as over-rated as the 2005 LSU team. I still can’t fathom why he was the #1 draft pick last year, other than the fact that the Raiders = teh Stupid.
How do you feel about holy matrimony at a Krystal?

One time a friend and I got a case of White Castle while on our way to the Deja Vu in Minneapolis (we had the cab driver drive-through). We were unable to eat the entire case on the way so we stored what was left in a snowbank. Hours later we consumed the left overs on the way back to the hotel. I have never puked as violently as I did that night.

@ wes -
I would agree with Gerry Dorsey as well. RP may or may not have been the shiznit, but given that there is so little behind him (particularly wrt experience), this has to hurt LSU (if true).
That being said, my inside information that his leaving the team has nothing to do with drugs, gambling or family, but rather the Auburn coaching staff issued a chop block fatwah against him, and he’s now on the run.

If that’s true he better leave the country, because Auburn’s Chop Blocking arm has a long reach. I’d recommend Brazil, as the bunda is top notch.

I’m an ACC guy, so I was wondering: Is there REALLY nothing to do in Knoxville? There are over 100,000 people in town so there has to be SOMETHING descent to do. Charlottesville is 50,000 and I hardly hear of any UVA guys getting in trouble (except for Ahmad Brooks)

@ coop,
actually i not a fan of jarrett lee at all. i would say read #21 and 22 as they were saying exactly what i was saying.
by gerry dorsey on Feb 18, 2008 11:04 AM EST reply actions
21 – Is today Reading Comp day on EDSBS? What am I missing?
Apparently Mr. Dorsey is the one not familiar with LSU’s QB depth chart, because after RP, they have Lee, a 4 star QB they signed this year, and a couple of walkons.
Not exactly the 49ers with Montana and Young backing him up.
Is Matt Flynn getting an 8th year of eligibility or something, because there is an article discussing him getting ready for the NFL combine on Rivals.

Looks like Bama will have a big entry into the Fulmer Cup standings tomorrow – if the rumors are true. Bout time we got back into the game!

Yeah, nevermind, I am retarded, obviously.
I had it in my mind that the Auburn guy thought RP leaving was a good idea, not vice versa.
Carry on…

Rickus,
Throw in a pinch o’ Josh Portis to your recipe, what with the mom angle and all. Josh’s mom and spiritual/financial advisor slept in his dorm room on a regular basis, so she could get to Urban’s office bright and early the next morning to let him know which plays he should be running to help her son reach his potential.

President James K. Polk. My cousin. The last president to leave office with a balanced budget. I wonder what that was like? You gosta respek a man who says from the outset, that he was a “one term(er)” because he would piss everyone off from the massive cleanup that here is no way that he could be re-elected.
Did I mention that he was family?

Take this with a grain of salt since it’s coming from a UGA guy, but in my (admittedly brief) experience going to a game in Knoxville, the town sucks. Supposedly Cumberland Avenue is “The Strip” where all the fun is to be had, but it’s crowded and tacky and has at best a 1:1 ratio of funky local bars to chain restaurants and fast-food joints — the closest comparison I can make is Myrtle Beach without the beach, which should send any self-respecting world traveler running. And once you get off Cumberland, of course, it’s deader than Georgia Tech.
That said, amidst all this tackiness there looked like ample opportunities for someone to get in trouble, particularly a guy like Colquitt, who looks like he’s spent the last two years angling to get on “Intervention” on A&E. But again, YMMV.

In what way was the 2005 team overrated?
You’re right. Over-rated was the wrong word choice. They were pre-season top 5 and ended the year around there, I believe.
I never liked Jamarcus Russell. Too much hype thrown his way, in my opinion. I didn’t understand the press that guy received. One of those years where the hype-machine gave me LSU fatigue. As a UGA fan, I enjoyed the ’05 SEC CG taking some of the polish off JR that year.
I’m sure LSU fans (and other SEC fans) will feel the same way about UGA in the coming year, although it won’t be near the felatting LSU gets almost every year.

PW: I’m not sure why I got so tickled over that, but I did :)
And yes, it looks like we’re Fulmer Cup bound. If the stories I’m hearing are true, the only robbery occuring in Tuscaloosa during this time frame was a jewelry store heist.

As any non-Saban fan will tell you, Perriloux was going to be in a Longhorn uniform if Saban was still at LSU. His leaving helped LSU get him…or so the story goes. So no Perriloux was not a Saban recruit.

There is a kind of Phil Fulmer Fulmer Cup logic to the fact that Phil Fulmer has suspended Colquitt 5 games for his 5th alcohol related arrest at Fulmer University. I wonder if he ever shows up for games drunK?

ChemE93:
Yep, he was brought in with Saban’s first class….although there’ll be disagreement as to whether he recruited him, or honored the offer that Shula made.
Regardless, it’s “his” player, so it’ll be interesting to see how off -the-field discipline evolves (or devolves) with this team.

I think Fulmer just set up a Colquitt breeding factory so he would have a steady supply of kickers.

Ryan Perilloux is not good. A) he almost lost the game for LSU against Auburn for a timely fumble, god bless him for trying and B) The SECCG shouldn’t have been that close. TENNESSEE people, TENNESSEE! So don’t even trying using that one, you will only be laughed at. Personally, I’ll take playing Perilloux every day of the week, the pick 6 odds against him are at least 4/1. Thats guaranteed money. But no, no LSU PLEASE keep him ad PLEASE start him, I would love for Auburn to walk leisurely into the SECCG this year.

James K Polk was an awesome President. Didn’t want the job, did what he said he would, left, never heard from him again. If only we had more like that.
The ghey pres was great too. William Rufus King, only Alabaman to ever hold one of the 2 high offices, was his Vice President/Catcher. And was sworn in on Cuban soil. It’s true.
by Reasonable_Bama_Fan on Feb 18, 2008 4:30 PM EST reply actions
I can’t get over this, I can’t believe anyone, especially LSU fans, can defend Ryan Perilloux as a QB. It’s like defending him as a human. It’s like defending Brandon Cox as a QB: yea he won some games but most of those games were won despite the QB.

i don’t think most LSU fans think perrilloux was destined for greatness; rather, they’re aware that the depth chart behind him makes him look pretty good. maybe lee will live up to his potential in his first year of college football, but i doubt it.

William Rufus King, only Alabaman to ever hold one of the 2 high offices, was his Vice President/Catcher.
And until recently, King County, WA was named after him. In a move of ridiculous political correctness, they renamed King County after MLK Jr, because William Rufus King was a slave owner. Nothing against MLK, who was a fine individual, but this change cost taxpayers $600k because they also changed the logo to MLK’s on every piece of government literature.
Maybe they should just rename Washington after Denzel, since George was a slave owner as well.

I hope since the Div 1-AA Univerisity of South Alabama is starting a football team they can take transfers, like USF….2 players I nominate Joey Jones to go after are Derrick "Aint No Punk Bitch " Odom and Ryan “It’s toooo late to apologize…..its toooooo laaaate…..” Perilloux, and maybe one more in Willie Williams….
And looks like Saban wont have to burn a grayshirt and simply cut Elder to make room for the incoming class…..I am sure there will be more to follow…maybe he heard he was on the list and decided to go out with guns blazing……Was he robbing a Jared’s?
