BLOGTOBERFEST: NOT BUD DWYER EDITION

Because things are beginning to spin out of control, and that's not a bad thing if you're wearing a helmet. Fortunately for us, we're like Michigan's football players and wear one at all times.

We'd never seen this photo before. If you haven't, you should see it. It is wonderful in ways undescribed by most world religions' descriptions of the wonderful. It's also week three this year for college football fans.

This was the "Yakety Sax" game, which might explain why we missed the pic, what with the convulsive laughter and repeated watchings of this.

Your program is more felonious than ours because we are better people than you. Eleven Warriors points at Michigan Against the World's Buckeye arrest tally in the Tressel era and says, well, yes, we've had quite a few people arrested. We still own you, because we don't care. Okay, they're much more conscientious about it than we would be, but that's what we would say.

Kirk Ferentz is going to do things a little differently this year, but not in a Bud Dwyer kind of way.

A custom schedule maker is never a bad thing to have hanging around the virtual house.

Matt Patchan of Florida, back on the field after being shot this offseason in a random incident in a Tampa park, seems to have kept his wit about him:

When asked what he felt he brought to the Florida defensive line, freshman Matt Patchan didn't hesitate from unleashing the first zinger of preseason camp.

"Long hair and attractiveness," the curly-haired Patchan said.

Cosmo-reader Dicky Lyons has his own spot on UK's website. If you loved Nicholas Cage decking women in The Wicker Man, you will love Dicky's inner monologue revealed.

Alabama has no depth chart. Really. Not even close.

Yes it's easy to point and scream "FRUITY HIPPIES" at Colorado's plan to compost stadium waste and have valet parking for bicycles, but consider for a moment the real environmental sense it makes to...um, wait. Valet parking for bikes? Okay, go ahead and continue screaming whatever you like, because that is SuperMechaGodzillaRetarded.

I think the preferred term (by Colorado State fans anyways) is ’dirty hippies".

Cool, maybe now Buffs fans will recycle their batteries instead of throwing them at opposing marching bands.

If Alabama has no depth chart, is it random selection that determines who plays when and where? If so, that would explain a lot about their recent performance.

I could watch that Michigan/fish eater clip over and over and over and over again. Love that big chunk of turf lodged in Quinn’s face mask, ro the interceptions, or the sacks or the touchdowns….. Am going to watch it again…..

valet bike parking isn’t a new concept – we have it at pretty much every major downtown event in chicago. it’s a way of encouraging biking by providing secure and easy to access bike storage. don’t knock it until you try it.

Personally, I prefer Yakety Sax Part II. Maybe it’s because Mallett had his share of Yakety-Sax moments in that game as well, so watching that game was the ultimate in schadenfreude.

Yep, chidave… the Cubs have had a bike valet service for a good four or five years now. Helps to reduce traffic in the neighborhood on game day.

The “valet” guys are basically security guards for the area where you check in your bike.

If you’re not the one hosting the tailgate, that seems like a pretty good way to get through game traffic on fall Saturdays in your local college town.

Nobody else has said it, so I guess I will:

Nick Saban doesn’t have time for this depth chart shit!!!

Gosh never got to Satan, just too much love for yakkity sax.

We do have a depth chart as Starkvegas. With a few unheralded frosh to boot. Eat your heart out Hoolio Hones. (for now).

As far as the depth chart goes, the way it works is,
only the strong survive, natural selection, mano a’ mano, survival of the fittest baby, last man standing…..
kinda like a Battle Royal, except within NCAA rules…..
The only drawback to not having a depth chart, is that there is no shallow chart either, which means we are chartless in uncharted waters………which aint good for sailing and aint good for the Crimson Tide…or the
Shallow Tide since we have no depth or chart….The Thin Red Tide……..now thats a good band name or blog right thurrr
