Around SBN: Tim Wakefield Retires

CURIOUS INDEX, 10/2/09

LeGarrette Blount may be reinstated before the end of the season, something to be discussed in a press conference at Oregon today. Blount was suspended for making the OH DON'T LIE THAT PUNCH IS AWESOME. Um, we mean deplorable! Pac-10 tacklers now free to punch Blount in the balls and cheap shot him 'till the break of dawn, because he cannot so much as yell back without inviting immediate banishment.

Morgantown Space Heaters 1, Colorado 0. Colorado didn't look at atrocious on defense as they should have thanks to West Virginia barfing the ball up with the regularity of someone who ate rare chicken, but the fun stat is 5.5 yards a toss, the miniscule total for Cody Hawkins' per-throw average. He actually threw for much more than that per throw, but launching passes to your tight ends 15 yards deep in your own backfield turns 20 yards of actual airspace into 5 yard gains. This man looks cuddly, though.

Fulmer, October 29th. That is Brian Edwards of VegasInsider.com's prediction for the coach and date of regime change for Louisville firing Steve Kragthorpe. Also in Andy Staples' hot seat survey is the reminder that cash-strapped Colorado cannot get rid of Dan Hawkins, meaning another year of stocking the roster with the finest volleyball prospects from the state of Idaho.

"How did I become Cajun Voldemort?" This is a magnificent answer:

"How did I become a college football fan? How did I become a heterosexual?"

Being a Louisiana native, we assume both happened under the influence of alcohol, voodoo, and in broad daylight in front of thousands of drunk, sweaty LSU fans.

Speaking of Carville: It's his footwork, stupid. We'll Always Have Tempe scouts Terrell Pryor and comes away with unkind words for his feet. He is only a sophomore, meaning Jim Tressel has two more years to not develop him as a quarterback before turning him loose in the Arena Football League. (We're Florida fans. Believe us, we know from college qbs groomed for the CFL, AFL, Finnish men's club leagues, and grad school flag football squads.)

Ah, obviously one of West Virginia’s true country gentleman. Nice to see that he could take time off from directing the stablehands and runnings his foxhounds in order to catch the spirited contest involving his beloved Mountaineers.

*men. To be an effective smartass, correct conjugation is key.

The pic of the WFV fan might be the single most depressing thing I’ve ever seen. It made me sad last night and it makes me sad today…in a way even Carville can’t help.

Wow – [NAME REDACTED] and AlGroh are on the hotseat. Whodda guessed it???

Fulmer has millions in the bank, respect of his peers, and still gets to be somewhat involved with the athletic department at a university at which he’s played football for has and been employed with for a long, long, long time… he must really be unhappy/bored/FUCKING HATES LANE KIFFIN if he’s thinking of leaving all that for a head coaching job at a school like Lou-uh-vull.

College QBs that will never make it in the pros should be allowed another 4 years of eligibility to play all-time QB in games like the one last night.

Bill Stewart has absolutely no control over his trons. If he did the score would have been 80-10. Not sure what the spread was on that game but that last minute TD by Colorado had to be a deal breaker…Ouch!

How did that guy ride to the game? Seriously? How? What type of vehicle moves that monster?

From Wikipedia’s entry for “Yellow Number 5” (aka: Stay Puffed ’Eer Fan)

“Products including tartrazine commonly include confectionery, cotton candy, soft drinks (Mountain Dew), energy drinks, instant puddings, flavored chips (Doritos, Nachos, etc), cereals (corn flakes, muesli, etc.), cake mixes, pastries, custard powder, soups (particularly instant or “cube” soups), sauces, some rices (like paella, risotto, etc.), powdered drink mixes, sports drinks, ice cream, ice pops, candy, chewing gum, marzipan, jam, jelly, gelatins, marmalade, mustard, horseradish, yogurt, noodles, pickles and other pickled products, certain brands of fruit squash, fruit cordial, chips, Biscuits, and many convenience foods together with glycerin, lemon and honey products."

… or, put simply, “a midnight snack for the man know only as ‘Yellow Number 5’”

If Blount is reinstated, that will really tarnish what Oregon has accomplished thus far.

Unless he can be reinstated as the water boy – forced to sit and watch knowing that he will never be allowed back on the field…

@#7 – if you listened closely to Chris Fowler last night, he kept dropping subtle hints about that last score – emphasizing the fact that it was now “an 11 point lead… down from 18”.
The line was 17.*

*For novelty purposes only.

A Rascal with solid rubber doolie tires, Cummins Diesel power and reinforced frame suitable for quarry use. With a “goat ropers need love too” bumper sticker.

This is exactly why the world needs MORE fat people. Personally, I think all of us should be thanking God/Einsteinian wonder for places like West Virginia everyday, where nobody is wasting their life away in a gym.

That’s Mangino scouting Colorado.

I would think whatever hauls Marky M is what is required for #5.

If Blount is reinstated at Oregon, I give them a punchers chance to win the Pac 10.

A quick point of order – Carville was born in Georgia and raised in Louisiana. However, the forms have been observed. He was baptized with bourbon, Crystal and a black cat bone as the sun set over the Father of Waters on the feast day of St Sebastian. I can assure you that the ceremony took place AT NIGHT. I was there. We were all there.

Another point of order – there is no more Arena Football League.

@ yoyo: He is truly “up against the wall.” His mother, however, loves him.

Also, WTF is up with WfV fans and hooded sweatshirts? Is it required for entry or something?

by Gen. Stoopnagle on Oct 2, 2009 11:28 AM EDT reply actions  

The size of Yellow #5’s trailer must be stupendous, and I imagine the floor is reinforced with steel and concrete.
My question is: How did they get that Little Rascal w/ the Forklift attachment all the way up there ? You know his Lil Rascal has dual tires, front and back.
Fat people who ride those things at Disney World and Wal-Mart piss me off. Why go somewhere if there is alot of walking to be done?……Old people I get, handicapped, I get it, but being fat and lazy, I dont…….IF YOU WALKED INSTEAD OF RIDING THE FAT TRAM, YOU WOULDNT BE FAT….Does someone go to bed one night at 185lbs, and wake up 360? No, you have to work at being fat. And he has put in alot of OT…..I shop at Target intentionally because it weeds out the riff raff. Pretty soon, there will be a Lil Rascal Hells Angels, Outlaws, etc, just for fat people.

So if Blount is reinstated will Anthony send another email asking for the check back so he can cash it this time?

by hobeg8r on Oct 2, 2009 11:54 AM EDT reply actions  

Love the idea of Blount getting back on the field. I didn’t see much wrong with the punch. It was more after the punch when he went after the fans, team mates and authority figures in general. Besides, that was a nice punch. Best straight right since George Foreman dropped Michael Moorer.

my favorite part is how the faces changes immediately from “hahaha, we beat your sorry ass” to “pretty birds…” upon contact with blout’s falcon-punchomatic

Well, at least he got an isle seat!! Wouldnt that be the shit ass luck..going to watch your Mountianeers beat the hell out of team and you walk to your seat holding a soda, nachos, and a soft pretzel, only to find that your seat is next to this guy!! You now cant find a place to sit your snacks and your constantly watching to make sure he doesnt take anything…Then he smells your food and thinks he needs to get a little snack as well…you get a few quick moments to stretch before he comes back with 4x as much as you had but with diet soda…Man, that would be a good game!!

@ 15

Fun fact semi-related to Carville. He went to Ascension Catholic High in Donaldsonville, La. Donsaldsonville is home to one of the US’s oldest synagogues. That same building, a former beacon of hope for Louisiana Jews, is now an ACE Hardware.

I am confused, in my experiences, most individuals who consume an entire cow for breakfast, usually need little assistance in staying warm. Why is Yellow Number 5 wearing so many clothes? His blubber should be enough to keep him warm and toasty for a very long and hard winter. It will also suffice as the allotment of welfare meals for the entire state of Mississippi. What are the chances of getting MTV’s Bully Beat Down to call out Bount for a episode?
