Around SBN: AEG To Purchase Spurs?

CURIOUS INDEX, 10/16/09

Oh, muse, find our hands... We're typing this in a hotel room in Las Vegas with a splitting headache, the lights off, and surrounded by drunk men passed out on the hotel floor. (The Donna Shalala Story: Chapter Eight, "Roulette Nights.") We need some inspiration, something to keep us moving, hoping, something to make us not stop believing, and hold on to tha--

reesing

Ah, so much better. Todd Reesing, you make us want to live the way Americans should: covered in old glory, bargain denim, and puppies.

Best play on 3rd and 11: the old "75 yard scramble" play. Tony Pike left the Cincy/USF game with a sprained wrist in the third quarter, but that's fine because Zach Collaros came in and ran his specialty play, the 75 yard quarterback draw. USF imploded, which they tend to do, allowing Cincy to score two second half TDs as the Bearcats looked tidily confident in a 34-17 victory over the Bulls. BJ Daniels really, reaaaaallllllly likes the ball, so much so he'll caress it, dance with it, and bob and weave in the pocket for days before doing something with it, or getting sacked four times and throwing two interceptions. Look at the Jamarcus Russell FUTBAL MAID EZ pamphlet made for him by Jimbo Fisher for simple rule of quarterbacking competence: YOU TAKE CARE OF COOKIE COOKIE TAKE CARE OF YOU BUT NOT EET COOKIE BECAUSE COOKIE IZ REELY FUTBAL.

They'll amputate, he'll play. Pike did sprain his left wrist in the 3rd, the wrist on the same arm he broke last season and still played on with little to no apparent effects. The wrist is a bit different in terms of snap handling, etc, but with a bye week coming up, he should be fine. Yes, we know Louisville is on the schedule. With the bye week coming up, he should be fine.

Ha. HA. HAHAAHAHAHAHAHHAA. This is wonderful, even if it gives Jonathan Crompton's father another excuse to berate a stranger on the street about his son's doubted greatness, rant, and then get thrown out of a convenience store for demanding the taquito roller recognize Crompton's imminent ten year reign in the NFL.

"Bowl eligible, bitches!" in spray paint all over your ass. Oh, yeah. Among the biggest surprises: the Vandals are bowl eligible on October 17th with a win, baby. If they would only allow their mascot to tag fans with a can of krylon each time they score, then they'd be unstoppable.

It will get interesting when Swing-Pass Crompton has to throw it down the field again, a la UCLA. His current repartoire proves Harry Callahan’s point that “a man’s got to know his limitations”. I’ll cede that to him & HelloKiffin.

I’ve never heard of this AT&T award. Sounds like ballot box stuffing to me.

“The plate that’s in there has shifted,” Kelly said""

The 50 yard sramble in the back field for a 2 yard loss is the best play in football. You just wish your QB could hold the ball in the backfield for 10 minutes before throwing 86 yard near pick sixes…

11 – Its just a vote-by-texting system. So, yeah, ballot-stuffing is definitely possible. How, that theory would require a reasonable number of people in Tennessee to own cellphones, so it might be bunk.

@ 7 “USF’s #10 just made a late hit a few minutes ago on some Cincinnati trainers that were still in town.”

Jerome Murphy did not look so good against Mardy Gilyard. His frustration was evident and it certainly wasn’t helping things.

I’m at a loss for words about how bad the ACC Atlantic is. BC got hosed by VaTech and they are the “best” team there. I’m going to try to channel T.S. Eliot and see if he can come up with an adequate description of how terrible the Atlantic Division is.

It’s not like Gilyard touched him up for 175 yards and two TDs. Murphy was just running around like a crazy person making stupid plays.

Speaking of running around… B.J. Daniels really channeled his inner Willie Beamen last night. You can’t make every play yourself, kid. Take what’s there. Which was a lot.

What’s up with these glass-wristed QBs, anyway? Matt Barkley and Tony Pike use their hands to break their falls and end up out of the game. I know Pike had a previous injury but their arms look like sticks. Get bigger, little kids!

So USF beat an overrated FSU team and just kind of coasted their way into being ranked before getting crushed by a ranked team at home AGAIN.

Perhaps Jim Leavitt having that billboard declaring USF as a new Florida college football powerhouse taken down was a blow to his teams confidence.

Being a Tampa resident, I find it funny that every year USF builds themselves up to a point where people in Tampa start to notice and catch “USF fever”, only to sink back into obscurity.

I can’t wait to see Demps, Rainey and co. run all over that Selvie-less defense next year. There’s something to be said for confidence in your team, but most USF fans are delusional. Your team is about as inspiring as a keynote speech delivered by Jim Leavitt.

Our newest fans never know how to react. It’s amazing. Every year they get themselves whipped up to some kind of impossible height and get way, way ahead of themselves. Stuff like thinking about BCS games in September. Then when USF inevitably loses a game or four, they completely lose their shit and start raging at anyone who will listen (plus a lot of people who won’t). They get way too high when they win and way too low when they lose. Cincinnati is really, really good, and these morons are acting like we just lost to fucking Syracuse.

All I’ll say about next year’s game is that it should be a better game than Troy or the standard non-conference fare you indulge in. I don’t think we’re going to end up losing by 50 points.

So let me get this straight. Idaho purchases a bunch of stripperesque nylon cheerleader outfits, goes 2-10. Ditches the stripper look for the far more wholesome 2" skirt typical of most other cheerleader squads, and becomes bowl eligible?

I’m not sure whether to doubt God’s existence, or his benevolence.

ESPN had some pretty telling stats on USF last night. One was the overall record among the big 4 teams in Florida from the last 3 and a half seasons. USF was actually 2nd there. Then they showed the team’s Big East record which was around .500. Sounds like they haven’t completely wasted their recent talent like FSU and Miami but still need to be more than mediocre in their conference.

So, if I-da-ho goes to a bowl game, does that mean that Larry “Happy Feet” Craig will show up in drag on the sideline?

@24:

YOU’RE disgustingly gay, Mr. “ddawg.” Quit getting all of that gay all over this website- you might turn us all gay with how gay you are, dickasinpeniseswhichyouliketotouchwithyourmouthdawg.

While you were getting annoyed because you couldn’t find porn with big enough dicks last night, Todd Reesing was having sex with 3 mother/daughter combinations. And then on Saturday he’ll throw for 450+ yards, 4-5 touchdowns, and 2-3 jaw-dropping scrambles because his secondary sucks and he’ll have to put up 40 just to beat a shitty Colorado team.

For America!

Not a bad showing by the Bearcats to come back from a lame 1st half and finish the game off with the second string qb.

Only our entire defense is going pro and we won’t have Tebow. And B.J. Daniels could very well be leaving his Chris-Rix-against-everyone-else phase and entering his Chris-Rix-against-UF phase wherein he scrambles for 15 seconds, spins around twice, closes his eyes, and launches the ball over his shoulder for a 65 yard touchdown. This game terrifies me, and since it’s in September, USF won’t have forgotten how to play football yet.

Also, say what you want about Leavitt, but if he doesn’t inspire you to run through a wall, I don’t know what to tell you.

As a Tampa resident, and a Gator grad, i was really bummed to see USF flub it – after seeing how tight the game was at end of third quarter. and, JD’s take on the region & FL football @ 25 was dead-on.

I route for USF and spend crazy energy trying to get my USF graduate neighbors to pay attention every fall (after my Gators of course); but, still- why do i need to spend energy convincing them they should really just watch their team play? It’s puzzling, sad and weird- they have talent, and it’s been great to see them come so far, so fast.

Perhaps, it will just always be years before this formerly nothing-but-non-traditional-workingFT-students-Commuter-School “gets” even having a big time football program-? Leavitt handled it right- the sports marketing program got nutty with the whole billboard crap. Still, crazy how the locals don’t even understand who the team they just played is, or how it relates to the overall CB football season.

Of course, when i went to a USF game a few years back, just seeing their “tailgate” experience [in the old TB mall parking lot, prior to new Bucs facility] was – well, pathetic (and that’s being generous), much less how the atmosphere in the stadium rolled out (it’s a pro football stadium, and allows beer sales! SHIT- this would nightmarish scene in Gainesville!)- they were all just sort of wandering and disconnected…it’s like they “sort of” get the idea, but don’t “feel” it. odd. it’s all just, off.
