PENN STATE STANDS NOT FOR OVERLY FRIENDLY LIONS

Picture 17

Nittany Lion Drawn By Tom of Finland: Here, Terrelle. Take a tissue. I know how hard it can be.

Terrelle Pryor: Thanks, I just...I just try so hard.

Nittany Lion Drawn by Tom of Finland: I know, I know. Hey, have you been working out?

TP: Oh, like you wouldn't believe. I'm so...sore. I just need someone to touch me and tell me it's all gonna be all right.

Nittany: Oh, let's just give those sore shoulders a rub and see what happens... [CUE MUSIC}

(The shirt's been recalled, of course. But the Tom of Finland Nittany Lion attempting to turn Terrelle Pryor lives on in your hearts and in your pants.)

THAT’S WHY THEY CALL IT HAPPY VALLEY “ORSON SWINDLE”

Put some pants on that goddamned lion.

So what Holly means is that in this case “gay” and “happy” really do mean the same thing?

by Yeah BoYeeEe on Nov 5, 2009 3:01 PM EST reply actions  

“Are those sad tissues, or happy tissues?”

God bless public figures whose names rhyme with “crier”.

So that’s what Marques Slocum’s lion has been up to since leaving Ann Arbor.

“I’m sorry for all of those who felt it was taken in that view, that it was an attack on [Pryor] or Ohio State — because it really wasn’t,” he said.

Uh huh.

I want one of those shirts

by Leavitt Town on Nov 5, 2009 3:25 PM EST reply actions  

Insulting the starting QB of the top program in the conference is poor sportsmanship? Are these the same people that attend Eggles and Phillies games?

Happy Valley must be the quietest 100,000 seat stadium in the country.

by chg on Nov 5, 2009 3:30 PM EST reply actions  

Well, Leavitt Town, since they were so kind as to publish the design, it shouldn’t be too difficult to make one. A printer and an iron-on transfer sheet should just about take care of it.

Completely random, but how prescient was the “Texas Tech Pirate Corsets for Pudgy Goth Girls” product tie-in?

by der schatten on Nov 5, 2009 3:43 PM EST reply actions  

You can’t spell pussies without PSU in it. TP is going to exact revenge for the fumble last year. Bet accordingly.

by Crabapple Buck on Nov 5, 2009 3:45 PM EST reply actions  

You know, when I saw this shirt on Doc Saturday’s blog, I thought it looked a lot more like gay furry fanfiction than a pointed barb of rival mockery.

Unless those are the same thing.

by I'm A Lasagna Hog on Nov 5, 2009 3:49 PM EST reply actions  

@der schatten…thought the same thing the other day.

Terrell is paying the price for being such an overhyped recruit. I realize he didn’t ask for it, but he’s got it.

by ohiodawg on Nov 5, 2009 4:05 PM EST reply actions  

In my version of the shirt, Tim Tebow looks down on the scene from heaven and smiles at the good display of sportsmanship.

Also, to make sure there’s no funny business.

by Tim James on Nov 5, 2009 4:13 PM EST reply actions  

In my version of the shirt he’s crying because that lion just poked him in the eyes.

by zzgator on Nov 5, 2009 4:14 PM EST reply actions  

Just like he was going to exact revenge against USC, right, #12? And Texas? And, um, Purdue?

You guys sound like us when we were hyping Morelli two years ago…

LABEL TERRELLE PRYOR “ECONOMY” AND THE LION “OBAMA.” I AM A NATIONALLY SYNDICATED POLITICAL CARTOONIST.

19, you mean something like this?

Apparently this doesn’t reflect the “true values” of Penn St. athletics.

So PSU athletes aren’t about comforting people when they’re sad? What jerks.

ReadingRambler….

“You guys sound like us when we were hyping Morelli two years ago…”

I understand your vitriol. It must be strange to Penn State be nationally relevant for two years in row (outside of fantastic ice cream and pumped in techno music…and white t-shirts!…and zombie nation y’all!).

Things will go back to normal next year…JayPa’s Quarterback Coaching Mastery Doesnt Make Promises of Mediocrity It Cant Deliver!!

by YNBA on Nov 5, 2009 5:40 PM EST reply actions  

@ #22

That’s all well and good, but you didn’t actually address the real issue here: Pryor is not “LeBron in Cleats”, he is “Morelli in Columbus”.

Also, it’s funny that you chide Penn State for not being consistently “nationally relevant” (when in doubt bash the other program. Remember to bring up our criminal record next.) when your own “nationally relevant” program hasn’t won a truly big game on the national stage since, say 2002.

by ReadingRambler on Nov 5, 2009 7:16 PM EST reply actions  

Fer cripe sake Penn State, this t-shirt looks like it was drawn by an 11-year-old. If you are going to engage in homo-erotic innuendo replete with the musky whiff of bestiality, please, do it well.

by Keith Byar's Right Foot on Nov 5, 2009 7:29 PM EST reply actions  

Regardless of the face plant(s) in the succeeding bowls, tOSU beat Michigan in 2006. Beating Michigan is a very recent phenomena for PSU. You had to wait til they sucked. I guess next you will tell me that beating tOSU makes it a relevant win for PSU, but when we beat you it is not of any consequence.

Pryor has more mobility than the statue that was Anthony Morelli. When he is running by your defense into the end zone, try to remember a time that AM ever did that. Cause laying on your back while a pick 6 takes place doesn’t remind me of TP.

by Crabapple Buck on Nov 5, 2009 8:43 PM EST reply actions  

So that’s a fuck lion.

by softbatch on Nov 5, 2009 9:33 PM EST reply actions  

@23
I can’t let that go unchecked. You do realize that Penn State is something like 11-20 vs. Ohio State and Michigan since joining the Big Ten conference.

by TAFKasTOSU on Nov 5, 2009 9:58 PM EST reply actions  

TAFKasTOSU

Wow. You actually felt a need to suck up to Michigan’s sterling record against us to improve your modest 9/6 ratio?

by PSUGuru on Nov 5, 2009 11:21 PM EST reply actions  

Guys, guys, guys, let’s keep everything in perspective.

You’re arguing about BIG 10 FOOTBALL.

For not being a slow white guy, The Big 10 Gods punish Terrelle Pryor with outstanding mediocrity.
For not being a slow white guy, The Big 10 Gods punish Darryl Clark with being at Penn State.
And mediocre levels of mediocrity.

by spack on Nov 6, 2009 3:52 AM EST reply actions  

@9 No, those are not the same people. PSU fans are terrified of cities. And attending an Iggles or Phillies game IS an example of poor sportsmanship.

by Golden Hand on Nov 6, 2009 7:33 AM EST reply actions  

@9 “Quietest”? Clearly, you’ve never been there. “Top program”? Sweater vest boy better get Clarett a pardon and suit him up to make that claim.

I know it was awfully quiet in Columbus last year.

Great, now I’ve got a whole slew of Erasure songs running through my head. Thanks, guys, thanks a lot.
