THE CURIOUS INDEX, 6/8/2011

PrintLET'S SET THE MOOD IN HERE WITH SOME SMOOTH BEACH SEX MUSIC. There's so much to get through this morning, so why don't you just turn the bass up on the speakers and let Schnelly sing you into a meditative state where you'll be capable of starting the day right, okay?
"Without a doubt, it is probably the worst song I have ever heard. It verges on being unpleasant, and obviously it's nothing that I've ever sanctioned." Thank you, Card Chronicle, for both reminding us that Howard believed he could sing much better than the parody, and that the Cocktail soundtrack was one huge sonic pile of cold yak shit.
Meanwhile in Louisville, Mike Sanford says Will Stein is bigger and stronger this year, and that means we are one step closer to the cheerful reign of college football's sunniest quarterback. CAN'T WAIT. #sunnybartscott'd
AND NOW FOR HUNDREDS OF WORDS ABOUT HOW TERRELLE PRYOR IS A DICK, COMPLETE WITH PRE-EMPTIVE WORDS ABOUT RULES AND DISMISSED ARGUMENTS. It's granted here that athletes should be able to make money off their own likenesses, that the NCAA's rules on amateurism are increasingly arcane and easily outflanked by clever agents and boosters, and that the entire thing is three flimsy sandbags mounted against a river of healthy and not evil profit motive. (Okay, slightly evil, but like all slightly evil things, it is oh so sexy.) We say that so you won't have to. We're awesome like that.
What are the origins of dickishness? Does it live in the brain, or the arm, or more logically, in the dick? Is it a product of coddling and enabling, as many Ohio State fans believe? We're a bit too deterministic for that. Terrelle Pryor is likely genetically a dick, born from dicks and traced back for generations of dickishness, so his complete disregard for the school and the team in allegedly selling memorabilia for cash, and thus further invalidating Ohio State's 2010 season, is just his destiny. You couldn't stop his voyage to Dicklandia: you could only postpone or divert it, or simply cut him off from the media altogether after saying that "everybody kills people" and continuing to be "defiant and immature."
Pryor's ongoing Dickiad now heads to the NFL, or CFL, or wherever he ends up. His best game was versus Oregon in the 2010 Rose Bowl, where he passed for 266 yards, ran for 72, and was as brilliant as he could be in Jim Tressel's offense. He was a bad fit in every sense of the word at Ohio State, a nitrous system thrown onto the engine of Tressel's F-150 of a football program, an ill-advised set of bolt-ons your mother had installed in Guatemala that got infected and now have her in the hospital, the sports car your newly retired grandfather wrapped around a telephone pole.
He's not dead, your grandpa, but he will be walking with a cane for a while, and should be careful how he steps for a while. We now await the inevitable Terry Bowden situation where Ohio State runs the table in a season that won't count, or better still one where they win every game except Illinois, because that is what [NAME REDACTED] was born to do: spoil nice things.
ANY DAY NOW. When we clipped this article, we received this delightful notice from our blogging platform:
Yes, it has been nine months, but UNC finally received its formal letter of inquiry from the NCAA that you know, they might be looking into things in Chapel Hill. It's not good that the NCAA has taken their time, since the last time they did this with such a glacial, methodical pace, USC ended up tattooed by college football's one-eyed random enforcement troll and its big, slow, heavy clubbin' stick.
OMG IT'S GOING TO KILL TEXAS. Or not, since all Colt McCoy's wife just said that Texas enforcement was actually quite strict, that boosters were uncontrollable (duh,) and that people like money, including offers of cars that get turned down. But hey, excuse to post pictures of Colt McCoy's hot wife! She's third from the right!
OH THE KNEE DIMPLES STOP IT YOU TEMPTRESSES YOWZA.
WE APPROVE OF THIS IDEA. Especially if it ends up with Fulmer retrenching, hiring ol' boys like David Cutcliffe, and becoming the same competitive but not too threatening program they were for much of the 2000s. (Like any good rival, We want Tennessee to be lower-case good, but not all-caps GOOD.) He'll also allow us to dust off really timely decade-old donut jokes! Which may sound tired, but seriously, this.
Godfrey says Mike Hamilton wasn't all bad, and that's fair, but there are indeed witches to burn, sir.
CHANGING SCREEN NAME TO HUGGuLONGTIME. We're sure this is exactly how Holgorsen and Stewart at a Blackjack table would go.
PHOTO NO REALLY LOOK AT THAT PHOTO. Mizzou's football players are pitching in for tornado relief in Joplin, Missouri, but seriously goddamn oh my god look at that lead photo.
STILL MORE BILL C. PREVIEWIN'. The lede reminds you just what a durable yet forsaken thing the Kentucky football fan is:
Kentucky has won more than eight games in a season just three times in their history...

From the producers of Rubber ccomes their next oddball epic, Inflatable. And just because we want to, our favorite expression of excitement and approval after the jump.

you are about to be way more than 7 games above last place. There’s no limit really. Should be fun.

If only the Cards would lose so the Pirates could make a run at the division.
What’s really strange is the offense has been Cutch, Walker, and pray but the pitching has carried them. I’m not sure what’s going on.

Russell was the number one overall pick.
Pryor will be in the supplemental draft.
Really not comparable.

While I agree he has locked up your Suckiest of Suck Title
He would likely have gone soon after Cammy Cam based on the same physical attributes minus the Heizman & Crystal Asterisk Trophy.
I think that he will hold out for a big contract, even though a supplemental draft #1, miss some/most of whatever camp there is this year and then flop to near the same degree?
The Charles, he is an artiste of the surreal.
by Cranked_Irish on Jun 8, 2011 1:32 PM EDT up reply actions
it should be noted that
vs. Oregon, Terrelle played one of his best games, and Cam played one of his worst games, and they had ~the same stats.
Cam – 265 passing, 2 td, 64 rushing.
Terrelle – 266 passing, 2 td, 72 rushing.
This stands to reason
Cam made five times as much as Pryor did last year.

Cam looked a lot worse than TP.
The stats don’t tell how dominant Ohio State was in that game.

ND had a great pass defense in 2007.

Just keep telling yourself that
The downside of deliberately turning away is that you really are ignorant – and when singing like a canary is the path to safety, it becomes clear just how bad a plan benign neglect really is.
I don’t know what the conversion factor would be here – if 2 players / 3 sports / institutional stupidity = 30 schollies / 2 year bowl ban / vacated games galore, it’s hard to adjust for 1 sport / multiple players / hard evidence of coachly shenanigans, not least because of the reset clause the NCAA gives themselves. I just don’t know that I’d count on cooperation after the catch to mitigate that much.
Good luck – and I mean that, this is not a fun time.

I haven't been to Fort Wayne or Kokomo, but I feel like East Lansing could give them a run for their money
Every road is 10 mph slower than they should be, lights are no more than 200 feet apart, each of them works on opposite cycles, and it takes 15-18 minutes to go 2.1 miles (I timed my commute to work repeatedly for a while).
The best, though? The light working on a timer IN FRONT OF FUCKING TRAIN RAILS. Not a light that turns red when a train approaches, but a light that can be red when there is no train, and green when there is a train, but the bars are down because a train is going through.

NO NO NO NO
We let him drive the ship one day, that’s how the damned thing ended up in the football stadium to begin with
"I don't really think about normal.I think normal is something I never wanted to be."
For such a long, obviously seriously researched article, it's kinda bad
Kentucky’s got money, fans and money, and while the state of Kentucky is not, in and of itself, as strong a recruiting base as others in the SEC … come on.
The author goes on to talk about how we have more than enough money in the state to compete. It has 2 big problems: one, we don’t have any money, and two, you can’t so casually dismiss the dearth of high school talent.
Money: even a casual glance at the revenue figures of KY football vs. the SEC powerhouses disproves that argument.
HS Talent: Implying that Kentucky has just below average talent that should be easily overcome is like saying having both legs amputated is a minor setback in your quest to break the world record for the marathon. WE ARE A SMALL STATE WITH NO BLACK PEOPLE. YOU CAN OVERCOME ONE OF THOSE BUT NOT BOTH. Case in point: we have 2 commitments from a high school in Georgia right now that is expected to have 13-15 D1 signees this year. That’s more than the entire state of Kentucky. We can’t compete with the homegrown talent of Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, or Louisiana. It’s just not gonna happen.
I don’t mean to be fatalistic and imply that we can never win games, but the reality is the program is caught a nasty cycle. We won’t get recruits or money until we win games. We won’t win games until we get recruits or money, or get a rare combination of luck and superb coaching. The latter is a product of chance and we can’t bank on that.
Things look good right now with Joker recruiting very well (for our program) and Rich Brooks rebuilding it from the ground up. We’ve gone from FCS-level to competitive in about 7 of our 8 SEC games every year (despite only winning 2 SEC games last year, we outgained the majority of our opponents). But the climb from shitty to competitive in every game is much easier than the climb from competitive to elite.

We might not villainize (sp, don’t care) Sutton so much if he had 1) won anything noteworthy 2) hadn’t crippled us so badly. A little probation here and there can be overlooked. But we were on the precipice of getting SMU’d and narrowly avoided it (it was still the worst major-sport penalty in NCAA history other than SMU). The program was a wreck until Ricky 3 Stacks worked his magic.

I've always wondered
Did Kentucky fans lose all appreciation for Slick Rick as soon as he stepped foot in Louisville or when he took the Celtics job?
Louisville 100%
We were sad to see him go to Boston but nobody disliked him for it. Almost all of us became instant Celtics fans (though that was also influenced by some Kentucky players in Boston as well). People went apeshit when he came to Louisville, though, much like LSU and Saban. It was a particularly nasty slap to the face when he had an open offer to go to Michigan, which is superior to Louisville in every way.

Although, despite the dislike of Pitino for that and for bolting to Louisville, most of us were rooting for him when the Karen Sypher shit went down—extortion ain’t cool and she was a well-known psychobitch. Speaking of which, there was strong evidence that she funded her first lawyer through blow jobs, I wonder what became of that?

He also said he told her it would probably be inappropriate for him to represent her, given their intimate relationship, and suggested that she instead hire a “super-lawyer” who had experience in sexual harassment cases.
But after they had sex again that day and he “prayed” on his decision overnight, Kolter said, he agreed to represent her anyway.
Model rules facepalm?

Contradicting Karen Sypher’s claim that her relationship with the lawyer she hired to sue Rick Pitino was “strictly business,” attorney Dana Kolter testified Friday that they routinely had oral sex — and the jury was shown a photo he had taken of them doing so two years ago.

Really.
I had no idea that Nebraska had a huge population base and giant ethnic diversity. That must explain our success over the last 50 years.
Kentucky’s success couldn’t have anything at all to do with the fact that football is a second-class sport there. Nope, not a thing. I mean, Kansas, UCLA, Duke, and UNC are all football powerhouses too, right. Right?

We’ve addressed one and two – the reason you don’t have any football money has to do with the sucking, oh, and the fact that your fan base cares way, way WAY more about bouncyhoops than the foosball. Collectively, you care more about Ashley Judd than football.
Saying you don’t have tradition is true – you don’t have tradition because you’ve allocated the scarce resources towards bouncyhoops. It’s disingenuous to expect to be TEH AWSUMS at both, especially with the comparative population disadvantages.

Nebraska is an exception to the rule.
By and large, schools that are situated in/near states with large populations and strong HS football will have the best teams. Notable exceptions are Nebraska, Notre Dame, and Boise State.

By and large
Schools that expect success and provide the appropriate resources for it will be successful.
Missouri’s bigger than Nebraska, has better high school football, and has much greater population diversity. Like Nebraska, there’s no little brother school in the state to siphon players.
Nebraska over the last mumble-mumble years lined up the resources, and definitely let the program know that not being successful wasn’t acceptable. Missouri didn’t.
If you want your team to be good, your fan base has to hold the program accountable for success. Fan bases that don’t get the program their commitment earns.
by Albino Tornado on Jun 8, 2011 1:19 PM EDT up reply actions
This is all true
But, like rockyh said, it’s the exception to the rule. No one has denied that there are exceptions. They exist. But they are, well, exceptions. Yes, given unlimited fan support and cash, any program could probably succeed. But unlimited fan support and cash don’t create themselves. Where they do exist in a school in a talent-poor area, it’s usually because of unusual historical success, sometimes going way back (e.g., Notre Dame). But not many programs were so phenomenally successful.
Hell, KY basketball supports this. Kentucky’s as bad at producing quality basketball players as it is quality football players, for largely the same reasons (small and white). But Rupp dominated early on when the difference in coach quality was much more pronounced than today. That sewed the seeds for money and fan support. They didn’t come out of nowhere.

Exactly my point.
Nebraska’s been good – or at least relevant – in football since well before the modern era. Notre Dame’s Four Horsemen lost two games; both to Nebraska. The only game in which Red Grange didn’t score a touchdown was against Nebraska. That tradition is the only thing that kept us alive during the Callahan years. Minnesota used to be a football power like Nebraska, but they couldn’t sustain it after the 50’s. The Tim Brewster Era was the net result.
You’ve got basketball dominance. Enjoy it. Kansas fans have chanted to Nebraska fans since time immemorial, “wait til basketball clap clap clapclapclap.” We know we’re getting the beatings come hoops season. Your top end is likely competence, even scrappiness. I recommend you learn to live with it – at least you’ve got bourbon.

Hard to counter against a team that doesn't want to take the game to you, and the US didn't seem to have Ideas in the middle third
final third was good stuff, and our Back line is just… better than they are (bigger faster stronger better technically). While we were a little too content to run at the back and cross it, they were letting us do it in their 18, so I think that’s something we will always try to take advantage of. Canada is really good, but clearly not on the same level. If we dominate Panama in a similar way I’ll be happier. Also, out strikers need to help out in the middle third harassing the back line. those guys are getting too much time

I was wondering why we were looking sharp from the back to the mid and the final third, but not so hot in the middle
and it’s because the strikers need to contribute- find out who’s gonna push the back line, but then the other two guys need to help move and retain the ball, because a press only works if everybody works for it.

Cut bacon strips and links in half. Wrap bacon around sausage. Lay out in baking dish, cover with brown sugar. 400 oven for 30-40 minutes or until house smells delicious.

For the rest of you, via Wikipedia:
Springer was elected to the Cincinnati city council in 1971.10 He resigned in 1974 after admitting to hiring a prostitute.10 The episode was uncovered when a police raid on a Fort Wright, Kentucky “massage parlor” unearthed a check Springer had written for its “services”.
So, kids, what did we learn? NEVER, ever write a check in a whorehouse. Other versions of this story include that the check bounced, but that part may be apocryphal.
When I was in college in SW Ohio, Jerry anchored the 11:00 PM news.
Et Universitatis Ohioensis delenda est!
The "service provider" never cashed the check, per Springer this spring

We say specifically before every worship service
that we expect phones to be turned off. Not on silent or vibrate, but OFF. It’s a spiritual discipline for all of us to practice meditation and full presence right where we are, with no distractions.
Ever do three minutes of silence with students who are used to texting during class? Unbelievably uncomfortable for them at first. Always makes me laugh (silently, of course).

If the Mass (for my case, as I am Catholic) is what it claims to be, there’s nothing more important than that while you’re there.
Church is the biggest no-no area.
I turn mine to silent for class, but leave it on, because small kids = their school may have to get ahold of me, or might call wife who then needs to get a hold of me.

The last time the Old Bobcat ever subbed . . .

And I just want you to know that the only reason I did that was . . . because the kid was acting like an asshole.” And then they both laughed it off.

Probably.
We have the same rule in my house. When my son is running around playing army, he can wear his BDU hat or his boonie hat, that’s fine. But outside of that, no hats inside, and wearing it at the dinner table will get you sent to your room.
My dad just dropped his retirement paperwork, and will teach 5 more years on some weird Florida program where he’s technically “retired”, but his retirement pay goes into a fund for him to get at the end of that 5 years, in addition to his normal paycheck. I look forward to him finishing, because I think there will be a flood of stories that he’d never tell while he was still employed.

Thankfully I'm in the military, so don't have to deal with it.
You take your hat off because you take your hat off, no discussion, that’s the regs. But yeah, Southern upbringing with military family, this bothers me to no end when I see it elsewhere.
Shoes is also a big thing for us, being used to Japan (and Hawaii) and all, but I tend to go with whatever the host tells me when I visit another person’s house. Some people get weirded out if you take your shoes off first thing when you walk in.

There is a theater in Jax I frequent
and it’s the only one I’ll go to (non-IMAX).
They show 1 movie, twice a day, serve beer & wine (and don’t care about you bringing it in) and have a full kitchen that cooks FOOD (not snacks).
Generally no annoying kids and the adults who go are there to SEE THE MOVIE.

If you’re going to Colonial Williamsburg, there’s a fish restaurant in the “extra bonus modern stores!” area that’s alright as long as you don’t let a child order their “pizza.” As my 6 year old found out to her dismay. But the main courses were good and they apparently rotate local beers on tap. Nothing like a pint and some crabcakes to firm one’s resolve for several more hours mingling with hoi polloi.
