CURIOUS INDEX, 4/1/08

You sexy Vandals, you. Idaho is getting GRRRR tough this offseason. How do you know? Because they’re COVERING THEMSELVES IN BABY OIL.
We would love to do a photo like this of all the bloggers we know covered in baby oil, if only because people continue to have too many children, and if we’ve ever heard of effective birth control, that would be it. (HT: Fight, Fight BSU.) Steele speaks! In lists, of course, because he’s Phil Steele, but we listen nonetheless. The winningest program overall and on the road over the past five years is USC, something that should surprise exactly zero and none of you reading this. The second-winningest program on the road is LSU, while the fourth-winningest on the road is Georgia, something that really shouldn’t count since Georgia doesn’t go anywhere they can’t get to on a single tank of gas. (That’s changing!/no more Dooley homebody stuff/Florida doesn’t travel either/etc! We know, we know.) Perrilloux out. Again. Ryan Perrilloux, presumably somewhere in a Baton Rouge apartment yelling at the wall about his future as a sixty million motherfucking man, is missing from LSU’s practices, meaning that after Miles let him back on the team and spelled out precisely what the terms of his obligations would be, Perrilloux nodded, turned around, and did the opposite. Smrt! If anyone needs him, Perrilloux will be working the tables down at the Hollywood Casino. You know, just watching. Houston Nutt is happy, contented, excited, fluff piece all things green and not pear-shaped, etc. Tennessee’s ticket prices are going up due to fatter asses. Tennessee ticket prices are soaring up $19 a ticket on average, with peak prices of $70 for the Florida and Alabama games. “We spent endless hours looking at ways to make this happen without raising the prices of tickets, but the facts haven’t changed. People are just bigger now, and we need to make sure we put as many people in the stadium as we can without the whole thing getting ridiculous,” says AD Mike Hamilton, who refused to attribute the ticket price raise to obesity. “We just have big fans, and that’s not a bad thing. It just means you have to pay more per seat for that size.” |

If my past history is any indication, I only qualify as a BYJWTBFW (a Blogger You Just Want To Be Friends With).

They also have a nice little rap to go along with the pic.
Think Revenge of the Nerds.

Good point.
I should have written “BYLF,” which is pronounced the same way but is written in the second person.
Also, it looks like middle English, which is kind of cool.

You counted the guys in the picture and then critiqued the attractiveness of possible outcasts? Easily one of the gayest comments in EDSBS history.

Speak for yourself, Swindle. With the beard, I’m a BILF.

I only count 40 guys in that picture…were the tubby O-linemen and kickers not invited? Hate to be the coach who tells them, “yeah, sorry, we didn’t think you should be in the pic.”

Well, I’m sure that Johnson will suspend him, being as he is not yet a student nor on the team yet.

“Oh lord underage drinking in the spring of your senior year, heaven forbid!!”
It’s refreshing to see that from a techie. I usually hear, “That terrible, heinous, fork-tongued devil Richt is letting his demons run wild in Athens!” when he hands out just a one game suspension for such as that.

Orson’s clearly becoming desensitized to homoerotic imagery if this, of all things, doesn’t have the “keep it gay” tag.

UgasTexan: A) the kid is still a recruit, not a team member. B) Oh lord underage drinking in the spring of your senior year, heaven forbid!! This kid will be juuuuust fine, don’t worry.

I actually was a little surprised that USC was so far ahead in road winning percentage, considering that the only loss at home during that span was to effin’ Stanford.

The Post titles are a little out of order. Shouldn’t “Pull your shirt down” be bumped up a post?
I think all the women love these posters, that’s why they must do ‘em. Plus they always have some shit about “earning your spot” onto that pic.

+100 cocktails to the vandals!
i love it - it takes some serious balls to say to a bunch of 20yo man-children who are stuck playing football in idaho, “hey guys, i need you shirtless and oiled up in the weight room in 20 minutes. chop-chop” - there’s seriously so many great things about that picture that i don’t know where to start…if i had to guess, i’d guess roughly 70% of idaho’s african-american population is in that picture…the only thing missing is a beer-gutted kicker with a cig in his mouth

Still trying to figure out the fractured logic of charging more for seats to obtain more of them because of the large size of the purchasers…its beyond me, but I like it.
On another note, my last venture into the stadium at knoxville resulted in my narrow ass (as described by my favorite dawg) actually not fitting within the painted seat guidelines…and compare that to the average UT fan who goes 5′8″ and 225…he’d only get a cheek and a quarter in the same space. With those parameters the Swamp could sell another 30,000 tickets…when will Foley start using that bald head of his, dammit.

I can only imagine the music being piped in the Vandals’ training facility during the big waxing party…
