THERE'S SOMETHING DENNIS ERICKSON WANTS TO SHOW YOU
It's an ingenious piece of marketing, yes (HT: Ted Miller): you type in your name, and you not only get a personalized video tour through the Sun Devils football offices, but also a phone call from Dennis Erickson telling you how important you are, and about the time he ran the Angry Post-Hole Digger drill with a one-armed woman in Saskatchewan for two hours straight once in a Comfort Inn. ("Had to burn the sheets afterwards that time!")
It is all very well done, though we might suggest one modification, brilliant marketing people at Arizona State: a filter. These are all screencaps from various submissions, and are not photoshopped. (Holly, of course, contributed mightily.)

ASU has just enough fail in them to be pathetic in a cute way rather than pathetic in a maginot line-like manner.

Nobody thought to do “Kansas City Chefs”? For shame.

This is pretty awesome. Marketing department smack??? lol- its actually a really cool marketing video. The joke is on the person(s) who are getting kicks replaying this video so many times with stupid names.
Did you really laugh every time you typed in a new one?

The NFL allows you to design jerseys with your choice of names, and they have a very thorough filter. Must have downloaded the Urban Dictionary. I also tried in vein to make a Michael Vick jersey with a variety of names for a person who engages in dogfighting, all of which where blocked.
@3: Great googly moogly.

Nine Pound Catfish = best dick joke this week.
Fifth InThePac10 is sublime.

These are the thing that make me glad I’ve elected not to renew my season tickets.
What’s that ASU? You want an extra $150 per nose bleed seat on top of the cost of the tickets? Sure, why not? I’ll drop $700 for 2 seats that cost me less than $250 in Tucson for the exact same line of sight, only I would get to see a better team.
To be fair, those aluminum benches to have a backing on them. That’s one clasy operation they got going in Tempe.

Remember when a Monte Carlo, Pony sneakers, and weed used to be sufficient to sign a student athlete?
betcha $20 Dennis Erikson doesn’t even own a computer (unless it is an elaborate flask in the shape of a laptop).

One Camaro-driving Trim Bandit just got a call from another.

Ah, good old Buttfuck McGee. Who can forget his classic End-Reacharound in the Georgia Tech spring game…

@ Expat Ohioan: I knew I could count on another Ohio emigrant to get the joke.

No mention of Mitchell “Fright Night” Freedman?

Yes, it’s funny every time. My endzone: Knowshon Moreno!
How can anyone bitch about $99 season tickets? There are fees? Out in the desert, they have No. Fuggin. Idea.

If the end zone really did say White Women, Knowshon would’ve probably visited a few more times.

“Nine Pound Catfish” made me laugh in my boss’ face during a powerpoint he was giving. I need to grow up.

It’s nice to know that assistant coaches won’t have to answer that annoying question “where the white women at?” any more. I predict a 14.3% increase in unnecessary two-point conversion tries at ASU this year.

“THERE’S SOMETHING DENNIS ERICKSON WANTS TO SHOW YOU”
That’s the same line Sean Salisbury uses before busting out his dick-on-a-phone.
