THE CURIOUS INDEX, 10/4/2011

OHHHH THE ALPHABETICAL. IIt is up, and contains many INDISPENSABLE INSIGHTS. It also has people peeing into bushes and makes fun of Barrett Trotter's very incomplete internal clock, so there's that, too.
SOMEONE TRIED TO TACKLE ALABAMA ON SATURDAY NIGHT. Dominique Easley already has a strong claim on the title of the Crowderbacker, the position occupied by James Bates, Channing Crowder, and Brandon Spikes of eccentric linebacker/overall menace. He carries a Chuckie doll around with him, dances constantly on the sidelines, gives quirky quote to the media, and most importantly, he assaults former Alabama players by tackling them to the ground after games.
Easley was identified by Reggie Myles, a former Alabama football player, as the man who tackled him unprovoked from behind in an incident after the 38-10 win by the Crimson Tide over the Gators in the Swamp on Saturday.UPD, ever vigilant for everything but actual crime, has not identified Easley yet. Myles says he suspects it is Easley because he left his phone at the scene, and his parents have asked for it back. This gets dumber, however.
UPD somehow ended up detaining Myles for this for public intox and criminal mischief, though they are charitably trying to soften the criminal charges they gave Myles AFTER ONE OF OUR PLAYERS KNOCKED HIS ASS TO THE GROUND. Myles was reportedly quite agitated at the scene, but UPD is the one who can't subdue delusional African exchange students with beanbangs, tasers and batons, so Myles should be pretty happy that UPD didn't respond to the situation by shooting him in the face.
In other news you already knew: Dominique Easley is buck-ass crazy. Ahoy, Crowderbacker!
AHAHAHAHA THAT'S SO CUTE. Steve Spurrier thinks he can suspend Stephen Garcia. Bro, check the org chart, get back to him, and S-Dog will see you wearing the starter's codpiece and not much else on the sideline on Saturday, Ball Coach.
If you nee him, he'll be gettin' some reps in with a future state senator's wife. Little something he likes to call the pilot's tour, because it involves going to the Cockpit and checking out the view, baby.
IT'S JUST BUSINESS. It is very easy to overestimate what Houston Nutt is saying when he says a recruit told him flip-flopping to Auburn was "just business," so shame on you for thinking that Auburn plays players. (That defense certainly is operating as a charity this year HEYO.) If Nutt gets blackballed from his destiny of coaching every SEC team for at least one year, we certainly hope he just starts HootieLeaks.com and posts nothing but incriminating dirt on every coach in the league. "Here's my fax of Nick Saban faxing his penis to a recruit's mother to secure a recruit, and later today I'll post my copy of a letter I wrote to Jevan Snead's father promising him 43 Arabians for his son's services. I thought he meant horses, but damned if he didn't want actual Saudis. I threw a few Egyptians in there and he didn't even notice."
YOU ARE VERY TIRED OF THIS AND SHOULD BE. Good God Gene Smith is so fired and yet not and that is still blowing our minds. We'd rather read about Ray Drew smelling Todd Grantham's farts, frankly.
OREGON'S RETRO-NON-RETROS. Not their finest work, but they will have to do. Hopefully the helmets will feature the angry Puddles stepping through the Block O, because nothing says football more than a domestic abuser of a cartoon character angrily swearing to kill from a helmet.

Gee: "Are you kidding? I'm lucky Smith doesn't fire me!"
Seriously, Gee is delaying the firing of Smith until after all major bad news comes out. He hopes, that way, that Smith is the final fall guy. He’s worried that if he fires him now and then they get their bowl ban for lack of institutional control, he might become the final fall guy.

I don't buy that for a second.
If you know the right routes to use, Austin is at least passable at any time. (Hint: avoid I-35, and avoid the Oak Hill US-290/TX-71 split. Those are the two areas that suck, but you can get around them pretty easily if you plan it well.) It’s frustrating because traffic is so much worse than it should be, but it’s still at worst on par with MSP.

Hey, Monty, remember what happened last time we wore throwbacks agai--
Oh, hey, Ed Dickson just scored again
So, I was at that game.
Before it started, I knew Oregon was going to lose. After the debacle at Boise and having barely escaped Purdue and Utah at home, I had zero confidence in the team. Here was a real conversation I had with a friend at the game:
Me: “So, do we rush the field if we win?” (*)
Friend: “Hah! Yeah, sure, I guess if we somehow win, we’ll probably rush the field.”
Me: “Okay, so what if we win in a blowout?”
Friend: “Uh, I guess we can’t rush if that happens, but…” (he and I both start laughing really hard)
To date, that was easily the most surprising outcome of a game that I’ve personally seen.
(*): Although Oregon students have a well-documented and embarrassing history of rushing the field, my friend and I don’t support this — y’know, since it’s kinda bush league — so the “we” here referred to the royal “we” and not the two of us.

It's an acquired skill,

I grew up listening to the American masters: Toni Tennille, Debbie Boone, Anne Murray--who was actually a Canadian working in the American idiom. Then there were the crypto-homo rockers: Lou Reed, Iggy Pop, David Bowie--who was actually an idiom working in America and Canada.

I have a theory
that if insurance companies could get away with making two special cases completely uninsurable, they would be “the first day a teenager is allowed to drive unsupervised” and “the day a teenager is given a new car”. ‘cause I’m pretty sure that on those days, the odds are better than 50/50 someone’s getting in a wreck.
Which describes the only wreck I’ve ever been in, with the exception of the time I got broadsided by a taxi which (1) launched into a main arterial from a side street without stopping (2) while doing 50 in a 25 (3) in a rainstorm (4) going the wrong way down a one-way street, so, uh, yeah, that was was legally determined to be 100% the taxi driver’s fault anyway.

When I start seeing the players offer
to give money back when a franchise loses money, then I will side with the players for wanting a bigger cut when they make money. Until then, I will always side with the owners of any franchise in any sport.
Wow, uh, no
NBA has unequal revenue sharing, unlike the NFL. Once you split up the pie evenly, and get around the squirrely accounting that teams use to register as “unprofitable,” it’s not really an issue. And these are just rich guys buying toys. It’s inane to say “Well, I’m only gonna let people enjoy my toy unless I get money out of it in addition to the enjoyment I was supposed to get from it.” It’s bullshit. And that bullshit starts at the top.
They OWN the fucking teams.
It is their right to do with the money as they see fit. They put up all the money. The players take on ZERO risk. None. Their only interest is to get as much money as possible from the owners. It has nothing to do with “sharing”.
Again, if they want to share in the responsibility and tie their contracts to how much money the team makes, I’ve got no problem with them getting paid more money when the team does well.
The players aren’t being disenfranchised. No one is forcing them to play in the NBA. Fuck, it is a privilege. And they receive an astronomical amount of money for doing so. Bitching because the teams want to keep costs down because the majority of the league (22 out of 30) lost money last year is smart money management.
The owners put up all the money for the investment. The players are the laborers. Yes, they are the product, but they aren’t the investors. As much as they dislike being the employees, they are well compensated for their work and they don’t have an interest in quitting basketball and getting a job at Red Lobster waiting tables.
The players take on a shitload of risk
But I will say that I agree with the owners in the NBA’s case.
by Nick Petrilli on Oct 4, 2011 1:57 PM EDT up reply actions
It's the owners' fault that the NBA is in that mess, though.
Shouldn’t the owners be the ones that have to bite the bullet?
Will engineer for food and loan payments.
Two questions:
1) What risk do the players take on, other than injury? If we are talking about injury risk, does getting paid millions of dollars per year not take into account the risk of injury? If that is the case, why don’t coal miners get paid millions of dollars per year? Their risk is much higher than the piddly bullshit injury risk that NBA players take on. Sure, it could end their playing career, but so could a million other things. And if the argument is that because they could get injured playing at any time, what argument is that? They are already heavily compensated. Are you arguing that they should get all of the contract regardless of performance? Because that is nonsense. No industry works off of that, I don’t know why the NBA should.
2) What is the fault of the owners here? Signing bad contracts with the union in the first place? Allowing a sense of entitlement to run free with the players? Overpaying people for playing a game? What bullet should the owners bite, exactly?
The owners need to nut up and take a fucking stand here. All of these players unions have gotten way out of control. Anyone who argues that they aren’t compensated well for their work is a fool. At this point, the players are just throwing a fit trying to see how much money they can get out of the owners.
The owners have these teams because they want to make money. I don’t see what the problem is here, they players already get paid a metric assload of money to play. Are they jealous of the fact that the owners are making money? Why? Isn’t that what they are doing, playing professional basketball for the money? Are they just haters because the owners make more money than they do (usually)?
The players take on zero risk financially. Why are they entitled to bigger profits when they have no risk? If the players on a team held a stake in ownership it would be different. If they had to invest their own money into a team, you would have an argument. But without that risk, that investment, they don’t have a leg to stand on.
How many times have you seen a guy get a huge contract and never deliver? It happens so often that people debate which one was the biggest bust. I’ve never seen a player offer to give the money back that they because they didn’t perform. NEVER. It has never happened, and it never will. I don’t even think I’ve seen a team go after a player’s contract money because of poor performance. I’ve seen it happen in other cases, because of problems with the law, etc., but never because of poor performance on the court.
This is a two way street. The players want all of the perks and benefits without any of the responsibility. As far as I’m concerned, the owners should just nut up and fire all of them, break the union, bring in scabs, and play the season without the stars. Sure, the product won’t be as good, but they’ll save a lot of money and be able to turn a profit. It will also make the players realize that they are acting like a bunch of goddamned babies and they need to be thankful for what they get.
NBA franchises are having trouble because they are paying the players too much.
Why should the players agree to be paid less when the NBA is struggling due to mismanagement? It’s not all on the player when he doesn’t live up to the contract – what about the owner and GM that gave them that contract? If someone wants to pay me millions of dollars more than I’m worth, I’d be insane to not accept the contract. It’s not just in retrospect that these deals look stupid – Simmons routinely pans these deals as they are happening, yet they are signed again and again.

>What is the fault of the owners here? Signing bad contracts with the union in the first place?
No. Signing bad contracts with individual players.
> At this point, the players are just…trying to see how much money they can get out of the owners.
And vice-versa. The owners are trying to extract as much money from their enterprise as possible while reducing compensation as much as possible. It’s called negotiation.
>The owners have these teams because they want to make money.
Also: vanity, civic pride, commercial development, bragging rights, enjoyment of the game, hob-nobbing, and love of bright shiny trophies and rings. Note that some of these desires are less mutually compatible than others. Besides, franchises increase in value even when they do not run at operating profits, so owners have the option to realize their gains by selling. If ownership is such a lousy proposition, why haven’t they?
>Are they jealous of the fact that the owners are making money?
Wait. I thought they’re losing money?
>Why are they entitled to bigger profits when they have no risk?
Actually, the players are trying to keep the current share of revenue, not add to it.
>How many times have you seen a guy get a huge contract and never deliver?
How many times have you seen owners and GMs promise titles and never deliver? Let me know when they refund ticket sales after loses.
/raises hand
I’ve never seen a player offer to give the money back that they because they didn’t perform. NEVER. It has never happened, and it never will.
I know it’s MLB, not NBA, but Gil Meche retired mid-contract specifically because he felt that the Royals had given him a fair contract, and he was no longer able to perform well enough to justify it. Left 12 million on the table and walked away.

I'm on twitter, though infrequently
You do realize that the amount of revenue that gets distributed to the players is a constant ratio, right?
If the amount paid is over a certain percentage (57% according to one SBN article), the money gets repaid to the owners.
It would seem to me that based on that fact, the lack of profitability is in the other terrible spending decisions of the owners – not the alleged greed of the players.
I suspect this topic will get unnecessarily spidery at some point because of the political nature of both the system of labor employed by the sport and the taxpayer-related decisions that are associated with maintaining a team.

Too early to tell, but the the ACCCG loser could get left out, Kansas style.
There are 4 at-large bids. Here’s how I’d rank the priority order:
1. Second-best SEC team, possibly even to as a spot in the BCSNCG.
2. Undefeated Boise is probably getting one.
3. A 2-loss ND, having beaten Stanford. Alternatively, a 1-loss Stanford could get one if they lose close to Oregon.
4. If Wisky makes the BCSNCG, Rose probably takes Illinois or Michigan if they have 1-2 losses.
5. A 1-loss Okie St. if they lose close to an undefeated team. A 1-loss Texas regardless of how close the loss is (maybe even 2-loss Texas).
6. A 1-loss ACC runner-up.
#1 The CG will not be SEC vs. SEC

- Rose will take Michigan

I think Texas/Florida would be a pretty good matchup.

no no no, they like to fight for shit
So they don’t want to lose to some “lower” team again with “trick” plays. Trust me on this.

I don't think Boise State would need trick plays this time around to win.

I think that's crazy.
Oklahoma is pretty damn good this year.

Yeah, and so is Boise
Not saying Boise would be favored at all, but they could win straight up.
by Nick Petrilli on Oct 4, 2011 1:05 PM EDT up reply actions
They definitely could.
But it would also definitely be considered a significant upset.

I'm with Nick on this one. On a neutral field I couldn't see OU favored by more than 4 at this point.
Boise is a physical, extremely well-coached team lead by an elite QB. By the end of the year the experience issues at WR should be mostly alleviated.

We went through this yesterday.
Doing Shift-A under 500 is lazy form. You need to get in shape.

I missed most of yesterday.
So I must have Shift+A’d through the discussion on Shift+A’ing.

Taking a vacation is hard work.
Dana Perrino interviewed a Navy SEAL. After discussing all the countries he had been sent to, she asked if they had to learn several languages.
His reply: "Oh, no, ma'am. We don't go there to talk."
Pipe down,
and go design me a 33 story highrise in 15 man-hours. Please.
I grew up listening to the American masters: Toni Tennille, Debbie Boone, Anne Murray--who was actually a Canadian working in the American idiom. Then there were the crypto-homo rockers: Lou Reed, Iggy Pop, David Bowie--who was actually an idiom working in America and Canada.
Balsa wood and glue for final building materials?
I ran out of budget.

Where's the gif of the dirty hit that Alabama player did on the punt?
Upshaw’s reaction to that was hilarious.
It was Dre Kirkpatrick reacting.

That was a stupid, stupid move. I really have no idea what he was thinking.

It was so unusual to shout "WHAT THE FUCK?!" at an Alabama player on the TV and have it not be Greg McElroy or John Parker Wilson.
I guess this is growing up.

Watching it again.
The worst part is it’s a bad hit even if he HAS the ball. Don’t lower the damn helmet, son.
"The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt." -Bertrand Russell
He did technically lower his helmet...
I think it wasn’t so much dirty as just a gianormous brain fart… He’s never really been known to do such things. Besides, if that is as dirty as we got I’m ok… we didn’t give nearly as many dirty shots as we recieved.
Fumbles. It was always Fumbles
I don't think it's dirty
At least not intentionally. I think it’s stupid.
