I can tell you know how hard this life can be. But you keep on smiling for me. Cee-lo, you are a beautiful fat little man. West Virginia is concerned about all of those men crowding their box. “A quarterback shouldn’t run the ball 20 times a game,” Stewart said. “Eventually, it catches you. … Now, if we can get the ball a couple of more places, make them defend the entire field, maybe we won’t have those safeties coming down [toward the line]. Maybe we won’t have people loading the box quite as much.” Bill Stewart, please call Urban Meyer. Kthx, Orson. The WVU offense will look a bit more like the Wake Forest offense, but with nutsoid talent working it. Oh, and Pat White won’t be in a leaked nude photograph, either, as much as some of us might like it. Nick Saban is officially a tool, per a minor league promo that was most definitely not concocted by an Auburn grad. Nope. Completely unbiased promotion going on here. If you believe in synchronicity, and we do, there’s blood on your hands today, minor league baseball promoter asshole. What’s “Roll Tide?” in Malayalam, the world’s only language whose name is a palindrome? Lloyd Carr is down with the Dalai Lama clique. Carr attended a speech by the Dalai Lama, and has now ensured that if he ever were to visit China, he would be immediately arrested as a “splittist” and forced to work shirtless in a tannery until he died from chemical exposure. “A website” has the Missouri Tigers in first place in something called the Fulmer Cup. A deplorable one, we’re sure. Reminder: Mike Leach rules. Leach, on why he’s not giving up playcalling duties like Ralph Friedgen, Steve Spurrier, and Charlie Weis: “Because I’m younger than those guys,” he said. ” … I got into coaching to coach. Otherwise, you’re just a handshaker.” |

Saw that. They also misspelled ‘Fulmer’ as ‘Fullmer’.
Sports journalism at its finest.

The MSM is acting like a jealous older sibling.
‘A website’?
Let’s not refer to the elephant in the room which is internet bloggers and free media. Nope, just keep buying our crap. We’re professionals! Those are just pimply faced fat kids on a stained couch in their mom’s basement. Of course we are better than them. We’re Journalists. We went to school!!!!!!

Nice, Orson - you got a mench ….. but then again ,you didn’t. I know someone who’s not getting a Christmas card this year.
Double points for “a website” that apparently only tracks player arrests and nothing else.

Hey now, I like the MSM, especially the sports section. Where else am I going to get my coupon for the lunch buffett at Thee Doll House?

More heathens who dare refuse to recognize the infallibility of the great Saban of Nazareth? Finebaum is sharpening his ball-choppin’ machete as we speak.

The writer wants to give credit for arrests dating back to September?
He/She clearly needs a refresher course on the rules of La Copa de Fulmer.

Minor league baseball promotions are some of the best cultural achievements this country produces.
Also, that article mentions that Leach once did a coach’s conference call while in the drive through of a fast food restaurant, and stopped talking briefly to order some chicken. Somehow, it fits perfectly.

Fulmer retired? Shit, that explains a lot.

Aaron Murray to UGA. Almost as satisfying as beating the Gators on the field. Urb can’t be happy.

Nick Saban commenting on a recent minor league promotion with negative connotations against him simply stated, “Oh yes there will be blood. I will drink their milkshake…aight!”

Dawg Pound, brilliant use of the Dumbass Redneck Fan nomenclature.
I salute you heartily in the language that you understand, “Go to Hell! You Ball-licking Leg Humper!”
+100 Bud Lite’s in coozies to you good sir.

Leach’s comment could have been more direct if he had said “hand-clapper.” I got to agree, what is the fun of doing all the other crap in coaching if you can’t call the plays?
Also noticed in the MSM article this gem:
“We’re constantly working on building relationships,” he told Tiger Quarterback Club members. “The young players are starting to figure out how a Missouri player should act.”
Based upon the recent arrests, I’d say the younger players are indeed learning a lesson.

Pretty blantant errors coming from the Star. But hey, football has existed in Kansas for all of, what, five months now?

I find it amusing that the “legitimate” and “mainstream” media are the ones that are continually inaccurate.

So is ESPN also an AU-grad run anti-Saban conspiracy?

(I think Saban was on every ass-of-the-year list for 2007; this is just the first one I found.)
