EVERYTHING WILL BE DIFFERENT THIS TIME: BOBBY PETRINO SPIN CYCLE ROUNDUP

by Holly Anderson on Jun 16, 2008 2:12 PM EDT

Oh, Razorbacks. Conference rivalries aside, at this point it's hard to wish them any ill whatsoever. It's like a three-legged cat: Funny, but hasn't it been through enough without poking it?

Arkansas faithful have been through the coaching equivalent of having your mom leave the meth lab proprietor for the traveling salesman with the clammy handshake, and as the sports beat carousel grinds into motion for fall, take a look between the lines at the coverage from Fayetteville, and the fine bouquet of "FAMILY!" and "TRADITION!" and "STABILITY!" wafting from every passage....with just a soupcon of "...RIGHT?"

Arkansas News Bureau: Bobby Petrino knows where he came from! Bobby Petrino respects his elders! Bobby Petrino's one a'them faincy triple-option folks, but he's not here to hurt you!

Arkansas Democrat Gazette: Bobby Petrino loves his kid! And has always given him a seven-minute warning to pack his things before beating a path out of town! His family is settling into the community nicely!

KTHV Little Rock: Bobby Petrino is looking forward to August! Look at his eyes flickering back and forth. Now, trust him. Just this once. Because this is the only time he'll ever mean it when he says he'll still be here in two months.

Sporting News: Casey Dick's stock, a steady "buy". Poor kid, finally. And he's only got one more season, so if his coach cuts and runs, Dick will at least be safe in the warm embrace of the combine.

Yes, everything's coming up Bobby. Um, except the Falcons. Ow.

I want a job as his personal PR rep. Steady paychecks.
I hope he shows some loyalty to the Hogs, he needs to show he’s capable of it. All of us Hog fans are cautiously optimistic…. It was all just a phase right?

How are his relations with female anchors? Is he an adept text messager? When will he adopt the three-legged cat?

Man, this guy is the greatest thang since sliced bread!!!

yada, yada, yada, once again the only ones that are whining about his loyalty can jump up my red hawg ass.
After all the B.S. (loyalty) from Nutt Job, we finally have a coach that probably will not be outcoached before the dang kickoff.

hehehehehe……I’ll get you my pretty………………

tuberville 98 to ole miss, fulmer sniping majors in 92, etc etc etc i love the loyalty bravado when every single coach alive has left some poor program for a better one. lets not forget that arthur blank fires everyone including dan reeves with 3 games left in the season and morajr for merely going to a conference championship game and having a better record than bill parcells for that 3year stretch. the pity party for the falcons is just over the top. give me a break with this neverending petrino bashing already.
