FULMER CUPDATE: EVERYONE DOES EVERYTHING EDITION

Yahoo Sports' Charles Robinson still has a "10 out of 10" in the holster, a story one might call the Reggie Nelson or Boardmaster Brian of investigative man-hammers. The Fulmer Cupdate is extremely hectic this season. Please forgive the tardiness, but arrestables be bein' arrestable.

Fulmercup-072611_medium

WEST VIRGINIA. Before we get to anything else, let us just remind everyone that despite Auburn running away with this thing, Branko Busick, late of the West Virginia Mountaineers, didn't give up and hang up his thievin' hat. No, he kept grinding, disdainful of the lies on the scoreboard and determined to challenge Auburn all by himself. And he would have, had he not been kicked off after his first armed robbery and his second the following week. 

Star-divide

Busick, the son of WWE wrestler Big Bully Busic, took pistol-whipping ways to the freelance arena, and is now in jail for a really long time. As a tribute we can only give him the points awarded for felony armed robbery while a Mountaineer and the bonus points for pistol-whippin' and being so sincere and direct in your hustle. Five points to the West Virginia Mountaineers in the Fulmer Cup, and best wishes to Branko Busick in the West Virginia prison system.*

*Did these words terrify you? THEY SHOULD.

SOUTH CAROLINA. G.A. Mangus already had the name to coach the rest of his life at South Carolina, and now he has the right misdemeanor charge to go with the moniker: nuisance, or a nice code word for getting plastered and peeing in an alley in South Carolina. You may want to judge the coach for ventilating his Mangus in an alley for all the world to see, but if you've never peed outside while drunk you are missing one of life's great pleasures. It's like you're pouring your buddy Earth a drink, AND you're breaking the law in almost every place in the United States.

Mangus gets a one point award for the misdemeanor, but two very randomly assigned bonus points follow to honor his status as a coach. Combined with Edward Muldrow's arrest for littering and underage drinking the Gamecocks have a total of five points in the Fulmer Cup, none of which were earned by Stephen Garcia. Stephen just thought he should mention that, standing right over here not doing anything and drinking a club soda while y'all pee and drunkenate all over the place, m'kay?

FLORIDA. Matt Elam has now been tagged for underage drinking twice. The first time he was on the Four Loko hellwagon, but appears to have moved up in the world if the Henny and Coke he was drinking was any indication of his increasing sophistication. "Arrested for the third time for underage drinking, Matt Elam was caught drinking a 2000 Masi Serego Alighieri Vaio Armaron Amarone Classico behind the Pat's Kwik Stop on 34th Street in Gainesville Friday evening."

A single point for underage drinking, but homer bonuses and repeat offender status take Elam's award to three points for Florida. Don't open that Amarone without us around, you budding oenophile, you.

TENNESSEE. CARPUNCHING!

Some details of Tennessee Volunteers linebacker Austin Johnson's arrest early on Sunday have come to light - Johnson, who was charged for public intoxication and disorderly conduct, apparently was trying to pick a fight and was also "hitting parked cars." Johnson told Knoxville police that he was drunk.

Noooooooo. That kind of lack of fear and sense is precisely what we like in linebackers at Tennessee. If you can avoid the Indian Burial Mound curse affecting all linebackers at Tennessee, you'll do big things, son. (You won't. It is the Indian Burial Mound Curse, and only sacrificing Johnny Majors on a sacrificial pyre will do the trick now. Do you have any idea how long he'd burn? It's completely unsafe.) Two points for Tennessee. Herman Lathers, we reminisce over your knees (and your ankle) (and whatever else just went snap.) 

MISSISSIPPI STATE: A combo of weed and alcohol possession meets domestic assault for what sounds like a typical summer's night in the country. Four points total for the Bulldogs.

ARKANSAS: Five points as documented here.

ILLINOIS: Four points for mobile homosexual-smackin'.

UCF: We said it before, but one point for a suspended license passes for good news in Orlando this year.

IOWA STATE: A whopping two points for the annual "Ames Boredom DUI" we've come to expect from Iowa State.

MARSHALL: Ugh. Domestic violence, hitting girls bonus, four points total for Marshall.

Dear Max,

I am sorry to say that I have secretly found out that Mr. Blume is having an affair with Miss Cross. My first suspicions came when I saw them Frenching in front of our house. And then I knew for sure when they went skinny dipping in Mr. Blume’s swimming pool, giving each other handjobs while you were taking a nap on the front porch.

What we have hyah is a failure to commun'cate... So, I'm petitioning for a recount in the Busick case

The confusion lies in the fact that the July 11th robbery for which Branko Busick was dismissed was in fact his second one. His first robbery was committed on June 23 and was reported to police, but did not get solved until after he was arrested on July 11 for the robbery for which he ws dismissed. The guy he robbed saw his picture on the news and contacted the police.

Confusing, yes; but in truth, Busick did commit two armed robberies while a member of the WVU football team. Both robberies involved assault on the person robbed. Since we’re already on the board, I’m just trying to get ahead of Marshall.

Ooh, ooh, how many Fulmer Cup points would Craig James have earned for SMU?

5 murders at 5 points a piece = 25 points.
Also, I’d award 2 bonus points per hooker, because, well, hookers, for a grand total of 35 points, thus taking him above the Ellis T Jones III threshold. Not bad.

Nuisance, or a nice code word for getting plastered and peeing in an alley in South Carolina.

Am I the only one who wouldn’t consider “nuisance” an upgrade on the ol’ Police Report?

I knew a guy who got arrested for pissing in the middle of the street in BR

I think the cop was going to let him go, but he refused to zip it up when the cop started talking to him. He had a crowd gathered around with his dick just hanging out.

he was able to do a pre-trial diversion, but would have had to register as a sex offender, which answers the age old question of “is anyone in Louisiana capable of being offended?”

It depends

if it’s simply colored shirt + white collar/cuffs, it looks kind of stupid. If there’s something fun about it, I’m all for it. I have several shirts where the inside of the collar and the inside of the cuffs have fun patterns. If you wear a tie and button the cuffs, it’s perfectly boring for work. Undo the top button and roll up the cuffs, and you’ve got some fun.

You could, yes.

But if it’s a perfectly fitting shirt, the only problem is that the cuffs and collar are worn down, why replace the whole thing? Keep in mind, that the shirts this is normally done on are rather expensive and take a while to make.

Indians with more late inning shenanigans going on...

gave up 2 runs with 2 outs in the 7th, got 1 back on a solo HR in the bottom of the seventh.

Going to the bottom of the 9th, down 2-1, against the guy that blew the game last night. Tribe gets a walk, seeing-eye single, sacrifice bunt where the runner beats the throw to third, next hitter hits into a 4-2-3 DP, bringing up Kipnis, who got his first career hit last night as the walk-off hit. Kipnis Ks this time, and the Angels escape 2-1

It's just semantic garbage.

You can just as easily look at it as “four schools left, and three of them decided to come back later”. If you take the position that there’s “no continuity” then you almost sort of have to argue that the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference is not the same conference that BYU, Utah, Wyoming, etc used to be in before WWII.

Or, for that matter, that the WAC is not the same conference BYU, Utah, Wyoming, etc. used to be in.

Well, never mind then. I didn't bother to actually check.

The fact is, Oregon (the one I checked) played as an independent for something like five seasons. Short of staying independent forever (which only a fool would do*) or forming a conference that was intentionally geographically dumb, I don’t see what more penance could be made to wash off the stank of the PCC.

The irony of VPI&SU

is that it was never meant to be a permanent name.

The Tech president who pushed that through in the ’70s had an eventual goal of VT taking the name Virginia State University. The school then known as Virginia State College would have been subsumed as a secondary campus, basically as an afterthought.

There actually already is a Virginia State.

It’s an HBCU.

Technically, one would want to avoid Massachusetts State and Connecticut State (the original names for UMass and UConn), as well as Maryland State (now Maryland-Eastern Shore). You’d probably want to avoid New York State too, to avoid confusion with SUNY.

Which leaves as unused: Maine State, Vermont State, New Hampshire State, Rhode Island State, New Jersey State (although I use this to refer to Rutgers), Wisconsin State, Nebraska State, Wyoming State, Nevada State, Alaska State, and Hawai’i State.

But what really doesn’t make sense in light of all that is Mankato’s insistence on being called Minnesota State, despite the existence of… well, another Minnesota State which was renamed basically at the same time and from which it requires disambiguation.

See, they have potential reasons to stop you.

Mostly the fact that you don’t have a base sticker or military ID

The frustration I reference above was simply because we were the fourth car through, and they had raised the threat level (real or for exercise purposes) to institute random checks of all vehicles. (This was in Japan at our base there, just for reference). So there was no real reason to stop my car, other than randomness. I understand why it needs to be done, but forcing me to take my 2 sleeping children out of the car is not going to make me happy.

And other sportswriters just eat it up, for some reason. He’s a bizzaro moral arbiter for Oregon sports. And every Oregon sports base hates him, because at some point or another, he’s come down from on high with one of his sermons, where he just wanks off in print to the idea of him being some journalistic crusader. His pieces are self satisfied egotism in print, and I’ve yet to see real reporting come out of his maw.

Oh, yeah, truth be told I'm probably #teamGolson

but the bottom line right now is short of having watched them for 3 years in HS, no one on the internet “knows” who should be starting. The Blue-Gold game tells us nothing, and none of us saw spring practice. None of us will be evaluating the August practices. Statistically Crist and Rees were close, and there are arguments to be made for each, but nothing definitive, yet people treat is as such. And Hendrix and Golson are largely unknowns, at least at the collegiate level.

I just hope Golson sticks around, because he’s probably going to get saved this year, and Crist, Rees, and Hendrix could all be back next year as well. I don’t think you start a freshman this year in order to keep him around, but I wouldn’t mind seeing him in situational play to keep him interested in staying. Crist has the physical tools to play drop-back, but I’m not sure he’s ever going to understand the offense or be as accurate as he needs to be. Rees is scrappy but not going to wow anyone. Hendrix/Golson is where this is going, and I think Golson can be our [insert Oregon QB not named Masoli]

You and I have been around and around on this but for the record I think you're vastly overstating Rees's play last year.

He was solid and made some plays but his stats were worse in just about every major individual category than Crist’s. The main difference is that the defense and running game were better while he was starting so the team won more games. He just does not have the physical tools to make all the throws so he won’t ever be the long term solution at starting QB. As long as the choice is between him and Crist it will be Crist.

Hendrix and Golson are obviously the future of the program and it makes sense to start to get some clarity on which one will be the top dog going forward ASAP but I hope Kelly can do that without burning Golson’s redshirt.

by PAK on Jul 27, 2011 1:16 AM EDT up reply actions  

Actually, I think the stats (mildly) support Crist

Tommy did “better” in the win column because the defense stepped up finally, Kelly toned things down and ran the ball, and we played 4 teams that weren’t as bad as we thought they were.

I’m not comfortable, really, with Crist or Rees, but I can see either of them improving enough to be a good starting QB. Crist could make real strides in year 2 as a starter, like other QB’s in the past, and let things develop rather than forcing them and having balls in the dirt or in the stands as much as he has. Rees could take things over and overcome some of his physical shortcomings by smart play and grasp of the offense. I could see either of those. I could also see neither of those.

The “best” scenario, I think , is Crist really turns it on, goes nuts, has a great season, and goes pro. Rees is the capable backup, but Hendrix gets some PT in the form of packages designed for him. Golson sits, but with the understanding that Kelly wants to save his year and he’ll be full-up competitive the following spring for the starting job. Rees fulfills his Evan Sharpley role next year as well backing up Golson or Hendrix.

Gotta admire them for staying for the whole game, though.

I was once at a game in Fenway where Randy Johnson had dominated the Red Sox for 8 innings- my parents insisted we leave, because my brother was tired…Missed a Mo Vaughn walk-off grand slam, and I won’t leave a game early ever again.

There can’t be too many non-college kids out there. It’s 1:13 AM. If I didn’t work, I’d totally be all about this, get hammered, and sober up without really having any problems.

I’ll leave baseball games early if we’re getting beat bad or up big, and the folks I’m with want to go, especially if it’s a date. But football, sorry sweetheart. I’m staying until this thing is completely over. I don’t care if you are hemorraghing from some wierdass cut you have on your foot

This

I don’t care about baseball, so I’m fine with getting there in the 2nd inning and leaving in the 7th. It’s about the experience of going to a game, and I have no real vested interest in any team.

Football, however…I don’t care if it’s a HS 2A game in a state I’ve never lived in. You stay, because it’s football.

/only exception is if you’re with small kids and the choice is leave and put them to bed, or stay and have to kill one of them.

Are they completely out of position players?

It would be much better to put a 3rd baseman behind the plate and a utility player at 3rd (or at SS and move SS to 3rd or something) than to put a pitcher there.

Completely out of position players...

unless they move a 3B back there, move an OF to 3B, and stick a pitcher in the OF, maybe…

More importantly, SCOTT PROCTOR is pitching well...

that can’t be a good sign for the apocalpyse. Kevin Correia has just headed to the Pittsburgh bullpen – he’s Thursday’s starter, so he may use this as an extended throw day, though it’d make more sense to use Friday’s starter, since Correia has probably already thrown today

I would assume that players are competitive enough not to do this,

but as a non-baseball person, I almost start to wonder if you let a ball go, let the other team score, just to get it over with. It’s one game out of 572 they play each year (or 168, whatever), it doesn’t matter that much.

Baseball already has the technology for balls and strikes -

Ques-Tec, which is used to grade umpires.

Players and coaches make errors, that is part of the game – umpires and referees shouldn’t impact the result with errors, and anything we can do to remove that, we should do.

Right, but they don't need video to review balls and strikes

IN CONCLUSION

IT IS A SCIENTIFIC FACT THAT THE US IS THE BEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD AND THE REASON WE BRING YOU ALL TO A CLASS IN HONOLULU FOR FOUR WEEKS ISN’T TO TEACH YOU ABOUT CRISIS RESPONSE, IT’S ABOUT SHOWING YOU PROOF THAT WE ARE BETTER THAN YOU SO YOU GO BACK TO YOUR THIRD WORLD RAT NEST AND THINK TWICE ABOUT SCREWING WITH US

Not even sure if a Fulmer Cup thread's the right place for it,

but I’m spending my 28th birthday today on the road to Tampa for an interview at a middle school this afternoon and should be back in So Flo tomorrow morning.

Patiently waiting for The Golden Era to kickoff at Sun Life Stadium.

Happy birthday, dude. Drive safely.

Good luck with the interview, and maybe Bourbon_Meyer or zzgator can hook you up with fun places to get drunj in Tampa tonight.

Going to bed after the 14th inning was the right decision.

I hate baseball umpires. I hate Clint Hurdle. The only nice thing is I’m off work again and under no deadline to put on pants.
