Around SBN: The Ten Worst Swings Of The 2011 Season

ALL HAIL THE ALPHABETICAL! DAYQUILRITAS ALL AROUND

The Alphabetical is up and humming in its usual ramshackle form at SB Nation. In other distractions: cabin fever has a thousand forms, but filming yourself chugging DayQuil and watching football for a whole Saturday is one particularly bold form of it.

PARK-LIFE. We really didn't drink that much DayQuil, since Orange Drank ain't got quite the same spectral liftin' power of that Purple Drank.

I don’t mind it when my gf asks me questions during the games because it makes me feel smart

Mad props for not even drankin’ DayQuil, but Kroger Day Time. Viva generics!

Mark May and Mike Leach need to sit down for tea sometime this season.

My favorite little touch: even when there’s no talking, you can tell when you’re watching the Gator game from horrified facial expression alone.

#2: I thought it was for “DaYQuil.” Either that or some sort of command of Crazy Old Testament God to redact all 25th letters in some sort of new-fangled, old-schooled alphy . . . Oops—invoked the wrath there.

Can this be a regular feature, even when you aren’t sick?

Personally, I miss the mustache.

This should become a weekly thing. Except next week. I don’t want to see the Wilford Brimley bukkake party. But starting Nov. 7th, this should definitely be a weekly thing.

Orson, Orson, Orson. Didn’t anybody teach you that dayquil/nyquil alone will not cure you cold or whatever? You
supposed to rip the end off a pack of marlboro reds, light up, and get puffin. Gets rid of the congestion quicker
and will either cure you immediately or kill you outright. No more cabin fever either way!

glad to see someone elee noticed the shithead (rip off his head after he scores) move by T. Mayes.

Note to Taylor Mayes- you will not be protected from obvious dumb ass, ball of testoserone penalties in the NFL. In that league you are the underclass player, like rogers was in the coliseum. Calls will go against YOU to protect Brett Farve and Adrian Perterson. Should be a change for ya…..jackass!

Ok I have vented and now feel (a little) better.

I too have been hitting up the Dayquil, but I prefer mine in pill form. Now with Vitamin C!

I think my favorite part of the GT health center is that you walk in with a cold, and you walk out with enough drugs to start a pharmacy. They once gave me Tylenol with codeine, just for shits and giggles. So now instead of dayquil, I have 5 drugs I can take.

@ tzubear

Because I’m sure Mays was actively trying to rip off his helmet. Just like I’m sure most players who get called for face masks are deliberately trying to do that.

But you’re right, if you throw enough cheap shots in the NFL you’ll just get punished with massive jersey sales, Madden endorsements, media slurping and perhaps an analyst spot on NBC.

And in the Where-Were-You-Yesterday-When-It-Mattered Dept:

The PAC 10 suspended the ref for not calling the vicious late hit Mays put on Rogers
in the endzone (USC vs OSU).

Hope you feel better because there is a whole lotta hate to get out there this week.

It took me a while to place your pseudo celebrity doppelganger, but I’ve finally done it. You look like Colin Meloy, Orson. A lot.

@15 – Looks like a young Jim Broadbent to me.

“Our defense will unmake your qb and have him taking prescription painkillers like a dog with their head in a sack full of bacon.”

Orson, you made me choke on the back of my tongue.

Yeah, that should be a weekly thing.. good stuff. I know, wierd, eh?

I liked having a sense of what game you were viewing by the amount of sunlight filtering through the window. I was pretty sure that during one of the nightscenes you were going to throw the camera equipment at the TV.

by BDoc on Oct 27, 2009 10:10 AM EDT reply actions  

Whatever,

For most plays I would agree with you, but not that one. In one tackle attempt Mayes went for the head to head shot and, when failing that, raked his trailing hand past Rogers face as he dove over him. Grabbing facemasks is usually a result of instinctively trying to grab onto some part of the fast moving ballcarrier. Rogers was relatively stationary and an instinctive reach out to stop an advancing ballcarrier does not apply in this case. I am not saying Mayes deliberately tried to rip Rogers face mask off, but it was a very dirty play from a historically dirty player.

Your retort concerning Mayes future in the NFL is off topic from my point, so I will not address it.
