THE CURIOUS INDEX, 2/8/2010

Congratulations to New Orleans Saint Bobby McCray, who has one more Super Bowl ring than Chris Rix this morning and many more NFL paychecks after last night's Super Bowl. To ride the full circuit of Super Bowl narrative self-correction: blissful at the idea of NOLA winning, realization that it is not your team and that the New Orleans redemption storyline is crap, but that it's a very good thing anyway, and yeah go ahead and be happy since no other single place has such a firm grasp on the emotional shorthairs than New Orleans--not even home, really. Ignatius Reilly would not understand any of this, but he would have a beer with his mother in the midst of the revelry and note its similarity to early Christian festivals in medieval Europe, and ask the gentleman behind him to refrain from spilling his beverage on his overcoat.

Our favorite part was the part where Tim Tebow walked out in his underwear, punched a panda, and then told him Mom women were to blame for all his problems. The Tebow commercial had so many highlights that it's hard to pick one: maybe the part with all the white background, or the part with the hug, or the...wait. That was the entire commercial, and was no big deal since it was just a simple Trojan Horse pointing you to the internet, which you're on anyway.  We can now return to the important things like calling his throwing motion a frittata, suggesting he believes Jesus rode dinosaurs, and saying that we love him despite all these things because a.) he was awesome at Florida, and b.) we like college quarterbacks to win games for our college football team, and really could care less about how their future endeavors impact the past glories of our football team because they don't.  

Yeah, he mad. The best things we've seen glorying in Manningface this morning. Not that it's an unusual thing, really. 

 

The caption on that is the best: "Peyton Manning completes a beautiful 88 yard TD pass to Tony George." Every week is Hate Week when you're a college football fan, sirs and madams, and lack of exercise makes the muscles of the spite chain atrophy. Exercise them regularly for best results. 

Corey Lemonier is quite the pirate. Yarr! Avast ye, piratical Auburn signee!

Corey Lemonier should probably think a bit more about the kinds of pictures he puts on Facebook, even if he doesn't own all those guns and has a legal right to own them. However, if he is going to get into trouble with one in the future, please let it be with the flintlock pistol, or better yet an unseen blunderbuss with a foot-wide powder pan that fires a hunk of old ballast crammed into its barrel. It would make Mike Leach so very happy that way. 

Our defensive staff could be more naked and hung than it was previously. If the departure of Charlie Strong and his boundless masculinity troubles Florida fans, rest assured that the potential hiring of former Notre Dame assistant Corwin Brown as the new defensive coordinator would improve the "dudes who'll strut it naked and proud" quotient of our coaching staff by a furlong or two.  Dan McCarney already does this all the time, too, but he clearly needs company.

If it makes anyone happy, and by God it did make me happy, FSU formally vacated their wins this weekend.

Avast there, young Lemonier,

You’d look more piratical if you lost the butterfly decal over your right shoulder, or if it was residing on the lower belly of a comely wench. Yarrrr.

My head, it hurts

In that special way it does after winning it all. Know what i’m talkin’ ’bout Orson?

Florescent lights are too loud.

How were you up at 7:49am?

It’s is now 1:23pm and I still can’t piece together a coherent thought. eg, it took me three tries to type that.

The Super Bowl lacks geometry and theology

Ignatius J. Reilly’s valve would surely slam shut in revulsion at the horrific display of modernity that is the NFL’s biggest game.

Corwin Brown, huh? Better hope you never run into Georgia Tech in a bowl game, because every morning when Corwin goes out to get the paper, a 5’7’’ pitchman goes flying past his ineffective arm tackle attempt, just as a friendly reminder from Paul Johnson.

Half Ass It

Why not just go all in and opt for the Tenuta-Brown double whammy. Be glorious Gators, be glorious.

Yeah BoYeeEEeeE

There’s enough DERP in the Brown/Tenuta poo poo platter to choke a yak.

Fortuna has spun her wheel, Mr. Manning.

Clearly, Ignatius prefers the quixotic nature of the college football post season. A confederacy of dunces, indeed.

Exactly, Orson. Future performance does not take away past glories. However, past failures do take away from future and/or present glories: See P. Manning.

No coverage of Puppy Bowl VI?

Infinitely more entertaining than the football game.

Pirate Pistol?

Hate to get technical, but Corey is holding a caplock, not a flintlock. Real pirates prefer flintlocks.

If you want to look all mean

and stuff with your caplock pistol, it helps not to have a butterfly decal behind you.

Awesome

No offense to Alligator Army blog, but it’s nice to see a SBN blogger tell the Tebow haters to STFU about Tebow with out actually saying it in such a immature way as I just did.
