Around SBN: Are The Orioles Bad Or Unlucky With Their Young Pitching?

KENTUCKY IS SLOWER THAN YOU RECALL

Been to Kentucky? We have. The barbecue is underrated, the weather eats our ass, and combine Tennessee provincialism with Ohio squalor and your math for the place is complete. In other words, it's so bad you'd rob a cop just to get a thrill.


This is actually from the Redneck Games in Georgia, and has no relation to this story. Carry on.

This is a worse idea than you might realize:

Murray State quarterback Jeff Ehrhardt was charged with pushing a campus police officer and taking his ticket book. The athletic director called this "a prank gone bad."

Ehrhardt, a 20-year-old sophomore, was arrested Wednesday and charged with second-degree robbery. He surrendered to the campus public safety office and returned the ticket book after a witness identified him.

Your moment in insane judicial overkill is sponsored by: Kentucky, the Bluegrass State. Second-degree robbery for robbing a cop? What is this, Soviet Russia! We now instantly award ourselves points for doubling up on a conservative blogger's version of Godwin's Law (first to mention Soviet Russia in comparision wins!) and for opening up the logical "In Kentucky, you rob cop. IN SOVIET RUSSIA, COP ROBS YOU!")

No Fulmer Cup points awarded due to Murray State not being a division one team. But it's cute and sad nonetheless.

I demand that the rules be changed to allow D1AA teams to garner points in the Fulmer Cup.

Murray State will be our Appalachian State.

What’s higher? That guy in the pic’s IQ or Mizzou’s Fulmer Cup points?

I second #1…some of the most creative and pointless efforts are initiated by our brethren in lower athletic divisions. We should applaud their ability to shout out and rise above the noise generated by D1, and credit them the accolades they so richly deserve…wow…I feel so, so altruistic. Never mind…fuck ’em.

If you let the D1-AA (or whatever they’re s’posed to be called now) in, then you’ll have the DII apologists demanding to be included. It’ll end up going all the way down to the NAIA. Do they still have NAIA? Hell, it’ll probably have intramural guys included at some point. I have a dream. A dream where all crimes are equally considered for the Fulmer Cup. You are not judged by the level of your college. Or something like that.

Is that guy levitating?

Dawg 05 @ 6: Yes, just like Richt a while back.

Remember how the voting folks let Appy State be considered after beating UM? They were 25th for a week.

So should these young Fulmer Cuppers, who are insuring that local prosecutors in out of the way places earn their keep.

Well, Murray State could be like Appalachian State, except that that gesture would be, at most, a token one. Appalachian State was in the AP poll for all a few weeks until their loss to Wofford, and, generally speaking, it usually takes something spectacular for a 1-AA school to make the blotter. A 1-AA school will never win the Fulmer Cup, and in true 1-AA fashion, I feel a four-team playoff should be made, starting in August, of the most egrigious offenses in 1-AA to determine a LEGITIMATE champion.

Also, recognizing that other CFB divisions produce offenses that are just as outlandish and spectacular as DIvision 1, I propose that an Ellis T. Jones be made for divisions 1-AA under, in order to recognize their contributions. This would be called the Mitch Cozad award. Any objections?

Tennessee provinicialism and Rust Belt ennui. Sounds about right, except Louisville is a more interesting city than either The Cleve or Nashville.

As a Kentucky native, I feel I have to stand up for my state. We gave the world tobacco, horse racing, college basketball, and whiskey. Oh… and Ashly Judd. You’re welcome.

Don’t forget that mutton barbecue!!!

I went to a Kentucky sorority semiformal thing once, it was aight, nothin spectacular (trim wise). “Better than up north” is how id characterize it.

Arrested for robbing a cop?

#11, you only gave the world tobacco when you were a part of Virginia…since then, you, too, have grown it, but don’t go re-writin’ history an’ shit when VA and NC were the true culprits.

But credit where it’s due…the Kentucky Mint Julep is certainly better than the Virginia equivalent…I’ll take bourbon over brandy every time.

by sb on Apr 15, 2008 2:06 PM EDT reply actions  

hell- i’ll take Ashley Judd over booze…

wait a minute- i’ve seen what Wynona looks like- maybe i’ll keep the sauce…

Hold on.

We supply the world with delicious oak-aged bourbon and are the US’s number one supplier of dank weed (inside the states) and we get this kinda treatment?

Obviously you’re a turd hanging out with the fat-girl greeks. Any fool with decent vision knows Kentucky girls take a backseat to noone. Try Keeneland one Saturday and you’ll see what I mean. Until then, say hello to the rest of the Cameron Crazies for me dork.
