Around SBN: Jim Irsay: We Can Make It Work With Peyton Manning

URBAN MEYER IN AN UNDISCLOSED LOCATION

Of all the loose threads still dangling free from the tattered border separating the fabric of the season from the long, bland sheet of the offseason, the status of Urban Meyer has to be the most prominent untended end. Do not forget that he still is on a "leave of absence." The interpretations of this indefinite leave of absence vary wildly, but fall into two camps.

Florida fans: "He'll be back before August, and just needs to take a vacation/relax/smoke a bowl brah and watch some Tim and Eric for a while."

SEC fans not in the set of those counted as Florida fans: "He's gone leave after signin' day and woooo watch me swallow this fish whole!" /chokesonlivefrog

For the record: either is entirely possible probable. After the past four weeks we have no reason to assume that on the day after signing day Urban Meyer will step up, announce on a podium that he's leaving, introduce our new head coach Lane Kiffin, who will then immediately drive off in a leased SUV full of whores, killing himself and all aboard. Then Jim Leavitt will be introduced, announce Mark Mangino as his offensive coordinator, and after a week will abuse and slap themselves out of office. Then, down to our only real results, Florida will announce the pairing of Howard Schnellenberger as the new head coach with Mike Leach as offensive coordinator.

You think we'd enjoy this, but we'd be dead long before this actually happened after throwing ourselves headfirst off the nearest stairwell. The point remains: if you're a big David Hume fan like we are, that robotic coaching sun of ours might not come up after signing day, or after Wednesday, or in five years or whenever. Metaphorical points are awarded to Alabama fans, whose coach destroyed that coaching sun like a rampaging Hockeybear in the Georgia Dome in December.

A midget Saban blowing up planets? That's computer animation we'd watch. And yes, he's short. It's all we have left on him after the SEC Championship Game, and you can't take that away from us. We'd pay good money to watch him knock out a ring full of jockeys in a bareknuckle match and so would you.

Saban has “Little Man’s” disease, also known as a Napoleonic Complex,
which should make the rest of the SEC shiver for quite a while,
because he has gotten the taste of blood, and is now addicted to it.
Urban should have stayed down, when Saban finished him off a few weeks ago.
Things will get uglier.

Reportedly, Urban is with Tiger in Hattiesburg, as he considers football to be sex.

Leave of absence = Long weekend in Pahokee.

Relax, guy. Corch Irving Meyers is fine; didn’t you see him at the Sugar Bowl? This season he’ll just pop a couple happy pills before each game and then wander around on the sidelines with a glass of red wine in hand, Lucille Bluth style.

Your rejection of inductive logic is just another reason for me to hate Florida.

Urban and Tebow will be taking a fishing trip to Brokeback Mountain.

If Saban is Napoleon, we must arrange — through devious machinations — for him to do battle with some kind of Russia in college football. Tsarist, freezing, with millions in human cannon fodder yet still maintaining a proud tradition, a squad that can grind Saban to a halt until he dies from lack of supply lines to the Tuscaloosa Wal-mart.

He must play Ohio State.

Bummer, brah. The user pulled the plug on that Hockeybear video before I had a chance to see it.

And bummer for you Gator fans with the Corch-watch. It must be like peeling the Jumbo sized Band-Aid off very, very slowly.

Just have to rely on the original, then.

Whoa, Hockeybear. I haven’t seen anything like that since the Cheat River peyote incident.

  1. - Believe me, Ohio State fans want to get some revenge on Saban. Y’all down here may hate him for being the cold-blooded dictator at Alabama, or for bailing on the Bayou Tigers of LSU, but we hate him for 1998 and Michigan State…..we owe him a HUGE PAYBACK

Huizenga’s unwillingness to provide Saban with a step-stool at the Dolphin post-game interview podium was a deal killer for the Fins…that and his ability to refer to himself in the 4th person during said interviews

Can’t remember the exact words from the last season, but here it goes

Lucille: I was watching Regis today and they had a scientist on there who was explaining that pills & psychiatry were both bad for you, so I’m just going to drink and not take my pills.

Michael: Mom, that was Tom Cruise.

Saban, hockeybear and an ad with Jenny McCarthy?

Thank you, Universe.

Behold Galactibear, Eater of Worlds and Killer of Penalties.

Now we know where KSU communication majors go to ply their trade.

And Orson, the staff for Florida post-Urban works out perfectly: Leach — Mangino — Leavitt. A holy trinity of win, and all crazy enough for Florida. You can go on sabbatical as the absurdity will simply write itself.

OS, you said it 3 years ago when he was hired. Saban will have a boring O and a D filled with baby demons with their killswitch stuck in the “on” position. I was happy to see you write it, and even more so to watch it come to fruition.

@13, TOSU owes Saban payback? Take a number. So does UK, Vandy, South Carolina, U cheaT, LSwho, Abarn, Texas, and of course our Gator Overlords. We’ve kinda beaten everyone’s ass in the past three years once or twice by at least two touchdowns. RTR.

And as far as Saban being short, I have this to offer. He won’t be too short when he’s the color of carbonite and 14 feet tall on The Walk of Champions later this year. Y’all should come check it out pre-game before those demons with the killswitch stuck in the “on” position eat what’s left of your program in September.

For that matter, Saban could be the size of Verne Troyer and we would love him just as much for killing the UF dynasty. Oh, and in case you didn’t catch the game here’s a highlight film.

Subject: Napoleon Complex = BULL FUCKING SHIT!

I was 5’ 7" tall, a full inch over the “average” height for Europeans during this time period.

The fucking British bastards were confused about my height because of the difference between the French pouce and British inch—2.71 and 2.54 cm respectively.

In 1908 psychologist Alfred Adler cited that I had an inferiority complex in which short people adopt an overaggressive behavior to compensate for lack of height; this inspired the term Napoleon complex.

He was a stupid fuck that I kick the shit out of daily here in Hell…. similar to the beating Woody Hayes throws on Bear Bryant daily.

Jumpin’ Jehosophat!!! That last video makes me wanna go to walmart and get a f/16 and space suit so I can fight the hockey bear(not to be confused with the maturbating bear). Can anyone tell me how to play hockey right quick?

The next head coach of the Gators will be Brian Schottenheimer. Remember him as a backup QB, suited up, with a headset snd clipboard, glued to Spurrier’s elbow back in the Wueffel years?
