Around SBN: Jeff Sullivan's MLB Trade Deadline Primer

JAMES COLEY, TWITTER BRAVEHEART

James Coley is the recruiting coordinator and tight ends coach at Florida State. In his spare time he flexes at walls, eyeballs chain link fences and accuses them of inconsistency, and walks into nurseries to yell at infants and remind them that life is hard and those who survive it even harder. WHY ARE YOU CRYING BABY BABIES NEED TO DRINK SORROW NOT MILK BECAUSE IT MAKES YOU STRONG.

The all-caps mania is less an exaggeration and more direct mimicry, as the following sample of Coley's work on Twitter will illustrate.

Picture 33

Killing "misquitos" with an axe, brah: the intensity just wafts off that like a chili fart, or like the smoke off Christian Ponder's freshly incinerated shoulder, coach. We're with you. We're getting out blunderbusses to shoot cockroaches. We're petting dogs with giant cartoonish hands on sticks. We're taking this double decker of ambition under the bridge of championshipness whether the bridge likes it or not. WOLVERIIIIIIIIIIINES!!!

It's all quite entertaining, if in need of occasional rebuttal and clarification. For instance: statement one...

Star-divide

Picture 34

...and the necessary clarification and correction:

We're here to help.

Underneath all the bluster and bravado is a girl’s school still trying to convince everyone (and itself) that it is not. :)

@Coach Coley: Spelling is for pussies.

From Coley’s bio: “Coley is a winner and has helped develop teams and players to perform at the highest levels in the NFL, at the collegiate level and on the prep level in the state of Florida.”

Most of his bullets are objective, but “Coley is a winner?” Me thinks he wrote that one himself.

Burt Reynolds reads that, twists his mustache, smells his fingers thinking of panty raids past and then gets in his vintage Trans AM, heads to Tallahassee and tests out your theory.

Ah still love seeing that “Ga Tech 6-1, 9-1” Makes you wonder; If our team knew where we’d emd up when we played Miami, how much harder would they have tried, ah well still a great run so far.

UNCONQUERED…by everything except that half of the schedule FSU managed to lose to….and spelling too, of course.

@ Brian

Dude, seriously, you run a 1936 offense. My left nut would be 6-1 in the ACC coastal or atlantic or whatever silly names you have for your divisions. Cardinal directions just weren’t good enough for the ACC, apparently. The left nut is the small one too. Yes, I have consulted a medical doctor but it is not dangerous, much like the ACC during the bowl season.

James Coley acknowledges that Florida State has been defeated on the battlefield, but with the budding resistance movement he is forming, hearts and minds across the land will never be conquered under their new Jesuit king.

FREEEEEEEEEDOOMMM!!!

Also, the triple option if nothing else is amazingly entertaining to watch with good running backs, so message board wankers can GO BACK TO DRAGONBALLZ HAHAHA

@ Brian:

Seriously? An intra-division game against the most storied program in the conference isn’t enough to make the BEEEEEEES play their hardest? Your comment is fan lunacy at its finest.

How any recruit doesn’t roll their eyes and immediately burn a scholarship offer from Florida State is beyond me. Even at 17/18 I would’ve looked him straight in the eyes and said……….“You serious Clark?”

Paul Johnson’s left nut? Still bigger than you and yours….the 1936 offense put double the points on vandy than the mighty gay-tuhs.

by Ramblin Dreck on Nov 13, 2009 1:18 PM EST reply actions  

Of course I am an SEC fan. That’s why teams from our conf can lose a game and still be a shoe in for the National Championship. Cause we are better. Well, better than everyone except Coach Coley who remains unconquered even though there is obvious evidence against that claim.

Seriously though, I really just think the ACC is like middle school football. I just can’t watch that shit. The fact that a team running the triple option, although entertaining as a motherfucker, actually works (and leads the damn conference!) on a week to week basis is Example 1. Boston College is example 1a.

by Wes on Nov 13, 2009 1:22 PM EST reply actions  

To all Wreck fans, when you win the ACC and hopefully play a good team in the BCS, and you manage to beat them, then feel good in pants that I was wrong and you are right. It isn’t your fault your competition on a week-to-week basis is complete garbage and your first inclination is to just to beat them, which is what you do. It is really more of an incrimination of the ACC more than anything. And let’s be honest, you can’t defend the ACC. Don’t even waste the calories trying to do it. I can’t defend LSU being a bunch of in-bred, corndog-loving meat-gazers. I don’t even waste my breath on it.

by Wes on Nov 13, 2009 1:28 PM EST reply actions  

Listen, girls. This site has remained largely free of the kind of chest-thumping buffoonary found at other CFB sites and it’d be really swell to maintain that legacy. If you’re going to insult the ACC, Florida St., etc. at least make an attempt in the general direction of humor and/or creativity. “SEC rulz, ACC droolz” just ain’t gettin’ it done.

by Harris on Nov 13, 2009 1:51 PM EST reply actions  

Correct. Game needs to step up. For instance, our Kansas and Mizzou fans do a delightful job of combining jibes with references to the actual killing that went on between the two states. This is quality work, and should be replicated in this space.

Sorry Hall Monitor. Let me show my pass so I can go to the bathroom but not stop by my locker. Shove it up your ass! This is college football!

I appreciate the little “i” in MiNDSET. SHOULDN’T HE HAVE CARRiED OUT THE CONCEPT FOR THE ENTiRE TWEET “KiLLiNG MiSQUiTOS WiTH AN AXE!”.

No “i” in team but there is a “Quit” in Misquitos.

by Mitch Cumstein on Nov 13, 2009 1:59 PM EST reply actions  

See? That is exactly the kind of weak sauce I’m talking about. Yes, Slow Learner, we are talking about college football and the “college” part of it suggests a certain minimal level of erudition. And here you come with your lame middle school quality-taunts, unfocused hostility and Axe Body Spray Cloud of Douchiness. Give me something, son. I’m sure among all the date rape jokes and Maxim articles about “Best Places to Grope a 13-year-old” cluttering up your brain meats (#1 is Under the Bleachers at a Duke football game) you’ve got some spark of creativity in there somewhere. Put your back into it, lad.

by Harris on Nov 13, 2009 2:05 PM EST reply actions  

Well damnit I don’t have any actual killings to work with here. Which is completely unfair to me. I only have Harris and his holier-than-thou-other-CFB-blog attitude.

Wes did say meat-gazer, though. That’s a quality hyphenated word, thurr.

Mitch Cumstein says @20:

“I appreciate the little "i" in MiNDSET”

Mitch, you need to pay attention. Ordinary minds like you see the letters “MiDNSET” and assume the
word is “MINDSET”. Ha! He got you there! If you look carefully, what Coach Coley is really saying
is, of course midnset, which everybody knows stands for:

“My. Idiocy. Doesn’t. Need. Shitty. Explanations, Turdbrains!”

by gamedaytribe on Nov 13, 2009 2:18 PM EST reply actions  

First, meat-gazer, when properly hyphenated, indicates a certain level of LSU fan late in the third quarter of a unfortunate display of Chris Todd all over the football field in Baton Rouge. Unhyphenated it remains without it’s true meaning.
Does this incriminate me as the receiver of a meat-gazing? Yes, yes it does. It wasn’t a proud moment to be a part of but neither was the showing on the field that night

by Wes on Nov 13, 2009 2:20 PM EST reply actions  

@21 Harris

Just, just stop. When you used the term ‘weak sauce’ I just stopped reading. I knew there was no need after that. I know your trying to be internet billy bad ass, but I stopped with ‘weak sauce’ so you should just do the same.

Harris, tell you what; I’ll lob you a softball, and you show how it’s done:

Churchill used to say that the Royal Navy’s traditions were rum, sodomy, and the lash: the Middies were a fifth of 151 short of hitting the trifecta with Notre Dame last weekend!

Maximum in Domination: None Stronger Except Troy

by Tim James on Nov 13, 2009 2:43 PM EST reply actions  

No surprise a Trojan would go for the sodomy angle. Hector didn’t want Helen for her beauty, he wanted her because she was fierce. Why are you here anyway, Trojan? Shouldn’t you be somewhere scrubbing webbed bootprints off your ass and holding a fundraiser so Carroll can “recruit” a 12th five-star RB from South Central for this class?

by Harris on Nov 13, 2009 3:07 PM EST reply actions  

Talking smack over comparative performances against Vandy is,,, pathetic. I mean, for god’s sake – it’s VANDY! (Also, fans of any school that gives up 31 each to Vandy AND Miss St should be barred from trash-talking for the remainder of that season. The only I-A team either has scored more against is Rice, and there are no words to describe the absolute dreadfulness on a football field that is Rice.)

It’s part of the spectacle, man. How does a run team outscore the points given up by that defense??

@18 Mr. Swindle:

Appreciate the kudos on our pithy squabbles, but if I may, you forgot about the rape. Quantrill’s raiders and the rest of those slavery-supporting terrorist scum did a lot of rape, too.

/You said “rape” twice.
//They really like rape.

by Mark on Nov 13, 2009 9:00 PM EST reply actions  

Just to correct the record: the Nerdbone is a 1976 offense. The spread is a 1936 offense, basically what Bobby Layne ran in college.

Not that anyone who thinks Miami has a “storied” program can be expected to know about football that occurred before they were born (1995?).

everyone here knows UF is in the SEC annex building and yes, Florida State is the premier girls school of the state.
