TIM TEBOW RETURNS WITH GIANT NERF HELMET TO PRACTICE

by Orson on Oct 6, 2009 4:58 PM EDT

He returns to practice in full pads but with no contact, presumably wearing a special Nike-sponsored Nerf Helmet to protect his noggin. Oh, the joys of listening to swampstained LSU troglodytes hollering jokes about our brain-damaged quarterback! We can't wait, especially since the fun has already started with LSU fans getting Urban Meyer's and Riley Cooper's phone numbers and leaving what we can only assume are helpful words of encouragement, love, and not-at-all veiled murder threats on their voicemail.

Let's pay 'em back, shall we? 318-681-4564. That's Les Miles number.* Let's make some memories, lovers.

*If Les Miles runs a hospital cafeteria with the most consistently entertaining menu announcements ever.

Oh Orson…Why don’t you just drop all this pretext and just switch sides? You know how much you love us.

Obvs still loopy from the coup/contrecoup injury, he’s trying to throw with his left hand!

Have there always been swing sets on UF’s practice fields?

“swampstained LSU troglodytes”
Is this supposed to be an insult? You’re talking about people who refer to themselves as “coonasses” with pride.

Florida spares no expense for its players safety:

LSUFreek,

kneels in reverence

wouldn’t a bike helmet actually offer less protection than a football helmet?

does sign of cross

I thought he would just rock his halo?

I think I’m back to firing on all cylinders this season when I am thinking on the same lines as LSUfreek. God bless football.

If he’s actually back at game speed by Saturday and does well, I think the resulting hype is such that even us Gator fans might feel a bit sick.

It can’t be that bad. Doesn’t Brett Favre play this weekend?

So when the LSU students start up with “Fuck you, Tebow” again, can we chastise them picking for on ruhtards?

He needs a Gary Busey helmet protector.

14 – Brett Farve has a harem, and it is the entire ESPN Monday Night broadcasting team.

Where’s the Orson Swindle outrage of Sunday morning of 2 weekends ago, when you said the guy should sit out a minimum of 3 weeks. Just sayin’.

I certainly hope the fine folks at EDSBS jumps ALL OVER this story….covering it from every angle, and crawls up UGA’s soul-less ass with a microscope.

….and there wasn’t a flag on THIS play??

ummmm, I wonder where Gregggg Doyle is on this one and what thinks about the condition of Mark Richt’s soul.

Marcus,

Finally, the reference I was looking for! Technically, it was called the Gary Busey helmet protector protector….

Dang – reminds me of all the DSN numbers that are published here. Nearly all have a 318 area code prefix. I have made so many damn calls to different joints in and around Alexandria, LA that it ain’t even funny.

I love Skype and DSN’s!
