ONE MORE FREEKIN' FOR THE WEEKEND

Something's not quite right with Eric Berry's Heisman campaign.

The billboard's executed well enough; the website is good for an afternoon chanting fix and full of shiny pictures, but there's just a little je ne sais quois missing. That sense of urgency, not the kind that comes with a tight scoreboard race, but the kind that conveys (CORRECTLY) that the only way to restore balance to an orange universe thrown completely off-kilter by a certain defender's usurpation of a certain highly coveted trophy is to have the award bestowed on a defender of our own. To wit:

Now we're talking.

Servers have been a little sluggy, but it’s working on both computers here.

Is he riding UAB’s mascot?

Didn’t Georgia Tech use that poster for Joe Hamilton’s Heisman campaign?

You’re right Holly, Charles Woodson was the most outstanding football player in the 1997-98 college football season.

Berry needs a sword or something—maybe he could ride a bloodhound.

He needs to hold the sword while shouting “There Can Be Only ONE!”

Going anal on a flying dragon . . . the Heisman is the least he deserves.

Tennessee lost that game to Alabama. Later in the calendar year, they fired a state icon and replaced him with a dipshit kid from California. I think Kiffykins is a vegan. Tennessee, meet a train wreck.

Can you tell me how to get in touch with LSUfreek? I’m running a new LSU blog called Save Toonces (no analysis, just joyful LSU-related miscellania) and it’s missing some LSUfreek content. Thanks.

One more problem with the Eric Berry campaign. Don’t you usually have to be on a winning team to win the Heisman?

Hmm… I’ll leave the obvious gay dragon jokes alone and just ask this…

Why on the actual billboard, did they they use the play where he tripped over Roy Upchurch, instead of the one where he knocked Marquis Maze’s brain clear out of his ear hole? Is that indicative of where they think this whole thing is heading?
