Around SBN: Upon Further Review: Bo Knows Longreads

PEOPLE HOUSTON NUTT WOULD GIVE HONORARY SCHOLARSHIPS TO

This brilliant bit from the strange past of Patrick Fain Dye naturally led us to thinking about who Houston Nutt would hand out an honorary scholarship to, and don't make the joke about all scholarships being "honorary" to Houston Nutt, because Mike Slive effectively already did. With Luke, who's now on board for various duties at SBN including Nutt Satire Duty.

Jeremiah Masoli. Welcome back whenever he wants to finish his masters degree.

Taylor Hicks. Would give him two honorary scholarships if he could.

Kevin James. Hoo-boy, that fella's got talent.

Star-divide

The KFC Colonel, Popeye, The Cajun Colonel, and Reverend Colonel (of Church's.) All colonels. It's important to respect our troops. 

Lt. Whiskers. Nutt's cat. 

The Mandrell Sisters.

J.J. Abrams. Nutt just discovered Felicity, S1)

Mr. Carrabba. The guy who owns Carabba's.

Farticus. Best gladiator he knows. 

Kelly Clarkson, but only at her most voluptuous

The entire 1993 Philadelphia Phillies. Good guys. Better men.

R. Kelly. He steps in the name of love. Don't snicker. He ain't perfect and neither are you. We all make recruiting mistakes.

Steve Martin. For raising Brad Paisley's beautiful wife right.

Khloe Kardashian. You know what he likes about her? SHE'S BIG.

Michael McDonald, but only "Specialty Album" Michael McDonald.

Harold Camping. 0-2 ain't such a bad start in the SEC

Houston Zel-Xbor-Nutt872. Great-great-great-great-great grandson from the future. Great kid. A spiritual kid. Gills or not, we're all the same in God's eyes.

Mr. Smith. The only honest 12 term senator left in Washington.

LeBron James. Let's play your true sport before you get too old, son.

Benny Hinn. For healing Deuce McAllister.

Calista Flockhart. He doesn't know what she's protesting, but you gotta admire her commitment to a hunger strike.

The sun. Big ol boy, ain't no quit in him either.

Allright, which one of you has been trolling NDNation?

On the article An Offense In Transition, Klobes commented, “My big take-away from all this information is that successful coaches (like Holtz and Brown) end up adjusting their "scheme" or style of play to the kinds of players they have…Digging deeper is recognizing the relationship between offense and defense, wherein keeping the defense off the field (possessing the ball) yields fewer points for the opponent.”

Whoever Invented Subtraction

because 28*4 doesn’t get to be less than 85 without it.

Also, the 1993 Phillies were the ugliest team in sports history. Dykstra, Morandini, Kruk, Dave Hollins, Jim ‘Fast-Twitch’ Eisenreich, Pete Incaviglia: that’s a murderer’s row of homeliness. And that’s even before you get to the pitching staff with such noted ass-faces as Schilling, Larry Andersen, David West and Mitch Wiliams.

Anybody watching UC Irvine-UVA?

Tied 1-1 in the 9th, with Omaha on the line. Irvine got a single, then a bunt that the catcher threw away, so it was 1st and 3rd, nobody out. UVA turned a double play, but the run scored- now 2-1 Irvine with 2 outs and the bases empty.

Spent a decade giving up on Cleveland teams

I finished my complete abandonment of my native Cleveland sports teams a few years back.

  1. Transitioned from Browns 1.0 to Packers because the Browns skipped town while I was living in Wisconsin.
  2. Pretty much gave up on the entire NBA for college hoops while living in ’Cuse / upstate NY, and then thought it would be traitorous to go back to the Cavs for LeBron instead of sticking on #TeamMelo.
  3. Finally gave up on the Tribe when I realized I was paying far more attention to the Padres (which is to say I sometimes paid attention to the Padres, and never did anything to follow the Indians except looked up the standings)

by drothgery on Jun 13, 2011 7:31 PM EDT up reply actions  

Never watched the NBA, pre-, during, or post-LeBron

I grew up on the Indians and baseball, and they were good when I was a kid.

The Browns left and came back while I was still in Ohio, and I feel it’s my duty to 1) Piss on Modell’s grave when he dies and 2) Continue to support my team.

It's the best thing ever,

and also the scariest. I’m glad I was forced to wait as long as I did, because I was barely “ready” at 32 – I shudder to think what might have happened had I been less mature.

In other words, listen to that voice saying “not yet.” And act accordingly. (need I say more?)

You think you’re ready, but you’re so not. But you will never be ready. So you have to decide you want to be ready, and take it as it comes.

Any idea why FSU is the road team today?

They’re hosting the Super Regional, and were home for game 1, road for game 2- is game 3 a coin flip or choice? And why would you choose to be the road team in game 3, if you do get the choice?

I figured...

That’s dumb, but that’s the NCAA. Should be the advantage for being the host is also getting two home games.

FSU’s pitching is terrible so far- lots of walks. I was fairly certain FSU was going to have to score a bunch to win, but this seals it.

Because they're ACC, or because they've only got Gilmartin and a bunch of scrubs as starters?

3 walks and a wild pitch, from two different pitchers, and there’s nobody out in the first

ACC, and I like their coach.

I think he is one of the classier coaches in college baseball, right now, and it would be nice to see him win it all for once. After UVa, of course.

by wahoocrew on Jun 13, 2011 7:31 PM EDT up reply actions  

Martin? He's a good guy, definitely.

However, he’s a terrible gameday coach, and they’re never going to win it all with Shouppe as the pitching coach. I’d like to see it happen, but I wouldn’t hold my breath for it.

I have seen them together.

But they’re very similar, in many ways, including having a son as an assistant. Though, Meat(Mike Martin Jr.) is a very good hitting coach.

So he threw a shitfit and talked to the boss. The boss then told me I had to include him in a project in which I already have more than enough people working with me to complete today. Long story short, he’s now doing all the work I had lined up for myself until 2 this afternoon. SO FUCKING BORED NOW.

Honestly, I'm going to stay bearish. I think rampant inflation in the Gold Pants market is going to remain an issue

particularly with instability and fundamental changes in the countries of Michigan and Ohio. While instability might prove problematic in Ohio and have a deflationary effect, Michigan’s complete collapse into anarchy under the cult of MANSOME ensures that inflation and Pants devaluation is going to remain an issue

You didn’t figure the Nation of Iowa and their rampant instability into the equation. If you had there could only be two possible outcomes, Hyperinflation or Major Depression. Must research BHGP for further information as to which is more likely.
