CURIOUS INDEX, 8/20/09

Bryce Brown declared ineligible, there is a shock.

When UT “won” the services of Brown, an entry on these pages was, “It’s like the time I won herpes.”

100 cocktails in that poster’s general direction.

Mr. Decker has a previous criminal record. Witnesses have said it was unprovoked. Would Mr. Decker try to lie to get out of the charges? I think he is trying to get some resonable doubt. It worked for OJ Simpson, the first time. But OJ pressed his luck in Nevada and that didn’t work out so well. Considering the past history of Mr. Decker, I will wager even a Florida jury will see through his denials.

The state of Michigan has a very nice and distinctive shape. And no history of secession.

WEST-FUCKIN’-VIRGINIA!! WOOOOOO!!!!!

@ Crabapple Buck

“Decker is 6 feet, 185 pounds, according to his arrest report. He was arrested for grand theft and burglary in 1999 but the charges were dropped. He has been cited for several fishing infractions over the years.”

Not defending anyone here but, that’s a weak criminal record. Besides, sounds like it was a bar fight and Decker hit the sweet spot.

Carolina, South Carolina, Texas, Tennessee, West Virginia, and I want to say Ohio State all use their state’s shape as their logo in the center of their… court in basketball.

Another reason college basketball is awesome.

Fishing infractions are common in Florida, especially those involving the hooking of “square grouper.”

That’s pretty good. In Ohio getting sucker-punched causing brain damage and requiring your head to be carved open to relieve swelling and seizures is considered both a tragedy and criminal activity.

In your neck of the woods its considered “hitting the sweet spot”

Is this going to turn into another B11 vs. SEC thing?

If what Brown’s high school football coach says is true (i.e. not warming up with other players to avoid potential injury and “shutting it down” on the field once the appropriate stats were reached) – I say – let him play….he’s better at destroying team chemistry than having UF hang a 100 on them. Okay, can I have both?

Whether it was a sucker punch or not, punching someone in a bar is a stupid thing to do. Especially at the Double Duece when Daltons working as Cooler.

Here Is a more recent photo showing Mr. Decker on the right. He appears to be a bit more than 185.He also had a domestic violence in California. He’ll get what he deserves eventually. I hope it is thru the court system, not from a vigilante.

Well, the only people who know the real story are Decker and Moeller.

What I suspect, is that the arguement or “intense conversation” started when Moeller didn’t want this douchebag looking guy talking to his sister. Probably said something to the affect of, don’t talk to my sister or I’ll knock you out. Being a lineback for THE Ohio State University, Moeller was probably feeling pretty confident in his abilities against some drunk in a bar. Decker, feeling threatened had to make the first move because if a fight were to break out, he would almost certainly be on the losing end. That’s when Decker made his move, a hook to the chin, knocking Moeller out before he hit the ground. On the fall, Moeller hit his head.

Two drunk people in a bar after midnight. It happens all the time. But, since it’sa football player, this Decker guy get death threats from the Ohio State faithful.

WF’nV was sporting some SEC-caliber WOOOO-ing in that video clip.

Orson, how could you post such a thing speculating that the story has two sides you mind-numb freak!

Yes, no bar fights in OhiO. Can you say nickel beer night, and hell, have you ever been to OU, they burn that place down every damn weekend.

State outline is all well and good, but my favorite display of statriotism in football is the Maryland’s flag endzones.

Considering the censorship that happened to Orson’s facebook page on SEC Media days, I think we should call the SEC’s rules regarding social media posting the “Orson Swindle Rule”.

It’s all about being Processed.

Bammer Linebacker scores late Fulmer Cup Points.

A Hawaii state outline at midfield would look kinda cool. Or you could just blow up Colt Brennan’s attempt at writing his name after the Sugar Bowl, that would probably look something like Hawaii.

^^

It should be noted that the girl involved in the incident was also brought up on the same charge and bond…So don’t get your panties in a twist quite yet, War Tiger fans

you may not want dong shaped staes on the middle of your field, but there are more appropriate and just plain awesome places for them.

“It’s probably the awesome state logo, which the following states are allowed and encouraged by the EDSBS Committee To Keep College Football Awesome: Texas (because it’s Texas,) West Virginia (because WEST VIRGINIA, BITCH, that’s why,) and Tennessee (unusual shape.)”

Is it just bizarre coincidence then that these are Holly’s three favorite teams?

Wait w-wait wait wait wait….the News Sentinel sez

“UT officials wouldn’t comment on the specifics of the ruling, however, a repayment of any extra benefits Brown may have received when he was in high school and a one- or two-game suspension at UT are possible, but that is considered a worst-case scenario.”

Don’t know why Low doesn’t mention this. I like it, though: Rest his hip for the shitty games, ready for the first big game. Classic Spurrier!

V,B

BS on that being WF’inVA’s state logo. There’s no burning sofa in its middle.

Just wondering…did we Gator fans make death threats against the guy who caused Brandon McArthur’s brain injury?

And Crabapple…here’s an enlightening result for you…

The 6-3, 220-pounder was drafted out of Seffner High School in Arrowood, Fla, in 2003, picked in the fifth round by the Minnesota Twins. Had he accepted the Twins’ offer, his life might have been very different, but McArthur wanted to taste the college experience.

Before he could play in a regular season game for Florida, however, McArthur was sucker-punched outside a Gainesville bar on Oct. 30, 2003, hitting the back of his head on the concrete parking lot. He underwent two brain operations within the next 24 hours and spent five days in a drug-induced coma.

His assailant, with a history of assault charges and anger management classes, was convicted of assault and sentenced to a year in jail. McArthur was sentenced to more than a year in rehab, and credits personal trainer Larry Mayol with giving him his baseball life back.

Wow…the Buckeye Blog linked above is eye-opening to say the least.

Love this line…

“But first, let’s remind the fans of the SEC that THEY are the ones with neanderthals for fans.”

Uh…

Long live the Fuck Lion!

Coop forgot the vaunted athletic program at Louisiana Tech University.

Just for the record, Virginia getting all patriotic and excited about itself as a state is why we have a West Virginia today. Kind of like how we used to have an East Germany. I’m just saying.

Glad you like the WVU-Pitt clip. I posted that last night, made from an old VHS tape I have with the WVU ’75 football highlights. Pretty good video quality for a 34-year old tape, huh?

If you want to hear the absolutely greatest rsfckin’ pregame scene-setter ever by Jack Fleming, here’s the radio broadcast opening from the 1986 WVU-Penn State on Halloween weekend:

’eer w/a beer:
