SCATTERED NOTES OF SOME IMPORTANCE

by Orson on Oct 27, 2009 6:27 PM EDT

--EDSBS Live will return tomorrow at 9 PM EDT, that's WEDNESDAY at 9 PM EDT. For tonight, however: HAWT HOLTZ ON HOLTZ AKSHUN.

--Florida missed practice today due to a thunderstorm, setting back their prep schedule for the week. Lightning hates Florida football. Also via Mr. Volin is the news of Deonte Thompson's frustrated pantomimes during the Miss State game, which if we're talking about next week after Georgia will mean we won't be seeing much of Mr. Thompson.

--SBNation Stream flurry: Iowa loses Adam Robinson for the year, Dez Bryant is still in limbo, and Jasper Howard's killer has been arrested.

--Lane Kiffin Whirlwind, Gamecock Variation: Clifton Geathers will not be pumping gas for the rest of this life according to Clifton Geathers who did not find anything Mr. Kiffin said about players who go to South Carolina funny especially because outside New Jersey no one has someone pump their gas for them anymore so you are calling me a robot and Clifton Geathers sir is no demon soulless robot.

--Cincy to start Zach Collaros again in place of the injured Tony Pike, who's trying to get used to a cast on his non-throwing arm. (Again.) (You're weak.) This would matter substantially, but the Bearcats are playing Syracuse on Saturday, so it won't.

--Yes, that is what it's like to lose to Texas A&M.

Actually, Oregon is still jam-packed with gas station attendants. And strippers. (Insert obligatory joke about Oregon educational system here.)

So the defending national champions and one of, if not the, richest athletic programs in the country doesn’t have an indoor practice facility for the football team?

If Mississippi State already has one, Florida is waaay behind.

“–Florida missed practice today due to a thunderstorm,”

Alow me to laugh heartily at your plight from the comfy FieldTurf of our indoor, or better yet, OUR BAND’S SEPERATE INDOOR Facility. Seriously, UF, get with the program.

2 – This is why we blow out the Seminoles in a monsoon while Miami, after being crushed by VT, whimpers about the rain.

Urban only canceled practice because he’s afraid that a Tebow-Thor fight would distract from Saturday.

I find the NCAA to be one of the most corrupt organizations EVER.

It took them maybe two days to investigate Dez Bryant and to declare him out forever.

How hard is it to write a one-sentence edict that says he can play again.

The NCAA is nothing more than a bunch of Indy Thugs.

They at least got a little practice in, because I definitely drove by and saw them there a little before six.

2 & 3…. Indoor practice facilities are for PUSSIES!!

….if you don’t play indoors, you better not fucking practice indoors.

….I’m surrounded by idiots!

I hadn’t seen this post before I flipped the TV over to ECU/Memphus. The first sight that greeted my eyes was Mark May and Crazy Lou in the pressbox. I bolted, whimpering, back to the Science Channel.

Curse you Mark May for ruining my enjoyment of a perfectly decent mid-majors game.

@ 7

Well, of course LSU practices on one of the outdoor practice fields. But, we like to prepare for the conditions too. No sense losing practice time when its too hot or stormy to practice outside.

@ 7

We have outdoor fields we practice on, but also the indoor for when there are thunderstorms.

Which happen

In any month that ends in an R

10 – “Too hot”? What is this, Minnesota?

New “Blind Side” trailer, sorry for the crappy quality but it’s the most coach-heavy yet. Krispy Kreme, Giggity, Dr. Lou and Satan all appear (warning, LSU fans may want to keep a bucket handy): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_SmPDmNfLk

interesting link on Thompson, Orson. wondered what would happen following this last game. tough call- i have to agree, he has ben open, as has Nelson(i’ve commented on it), but that’s not the smartest way to make your point. sigh.
