VANDERBILT HAS A HOSPITAL?
Beersworthy! My checkbook, please.We thought they only cared about football. Vanderbilt is investing $50 million in new facilities over the offseason, presumably looking up from their morning FT, stretching their polo-toned legs ahead of themselves, and signing an enormous checkbook held on a silver platter by a white-gloved man with a charmingly English name like Nigel or Beersworthy.
The fundraising is not a surprise: they’re smart people, Bobby Johnson’s had the longest sustained period of relative success in recent program history (you’re still 1911’s bitch, Bobby!) and they want to strike a competitive balance between academics and competition, blah blah blah. Good for them. The funny part comes from the Orlando Sentinel’s blog post on the story:
Because, after all, having the best hospital in Tennessee in more important to Vandy than having the best football team in the state.
You sick, sick bastards, you. Call us when you get your priorities in line, Vanderbilt. Sick people don’t win football games. Champions do.

IANAL, but ‘law school hot’ always looked pretty hot to me.

Okay, Brock Williams, justify yourself as King of The Candy B-Ball Program. How can you allow such decadent improvements, being from Lenwah, NC?
No way I allow you to be a groomsman in my next failed marriage without justification.
Proper. Yo.

#23 - I will bet my entire bankroll, my gin rickey, and my fine ‘32 Dusenburg convert (with chauffeur) that “law school hot” pummels the living bejesus out of “IT Support hot.”

>> Let’s just hope that Skip Bayless’s DNA gets mixed with a baboon’s somewhere down the line.
I’m pretty sure that already happened. At birth. It would explain so much.
