THE CURIOUS INDEX, 8/8/2011
PERSASTRONG COMES TO BRISTOL, CT. Christian Ponder for Heisman, please move over. We have a new favorite "Heisman Campaign Based On A Player Whose Arm Might Fall Off In Week Seven."
That beautiful scenery is Bristol, CT, and that pipe is the Adrian Karsten Memorial Drainpipe. Dan Persa is a quarterback for Northwestern, and according to the school is a candidate for the Heisman trophy. Like Northwestern itself, you will need extensive reminders of their existence from people who cannot believe you do not understand how special Persa/Northwestern are.
THERE ARE NO BODIES THEREFORE VONTAZE BURFICT DIDN'T REALLY HIT ANYONE, MAN. Sure, you say Erickson's hiding Vontaze Burfict getting in a locker room fight, but if there isn't a head rolling out the door and Burfict running after it kicking it like Lionel Messi loose in midfield, then this was not a serious fight. Please also consider the real live possibility that Dennis Erickson has no idea who Vontaze Burfict is, and does not know he is coaching "The Arizona State Sun Devils." #GoSeahawks
NOW THAT'S A TATTOO OF A SAMURAI KILLING A MUSKRAT, SIR. We would make fun of Jerel Worthy's tattoo, but he's Jerel Worthy and he probably just heard us say that SHIIIIIIIIIIIT RUN---
MMMMMM ALL ACCESS. ESPN's gone full Gatorish today after stiffing the local media for the entire spring, and we're sure that will go down well with everyone but ESPN. (Mike Bianchi: "Why UCF is Florida's true team!") Still, you get one day of pictures of guys in sleeveless training tops eating waffles and actual footage of Charlie Weis talking stacked linebackers and box counts before the curtain falls back into Sabanesque darkness, so take it while you can get it.
IT'S REALLY THE FIFTH SUSPENSION THAT MAKES YOU WONDER IF YOU'RE IN THE RIGHT PLACE. Stephen Garcia really considered transferring after his fifth suspension, which like the seventh divorce really makes you wonder if the institution in question is really suited for your needs as a person. He didn't transfer, perhaps because the draw of an academic slate including archery (FORE!) and a class on the Navy SEALs was too much for him to resist, or because the ass of Jadeveon Clowney turned out to be just as magnificent as promised. Only floating Matthew McConaughey knows for certain.
WE LIKE THE STYLE ESPECIALLY IF HE HAS FORMATIONS NICKNAMED SAN ANDREAS AND LIBERTY CITY. Chad Morris was firmly in the mad scientist camp at Tulsa, and if Dabo doesn't Dabo it up and get in his way as a coordinator at Clemson, there could be some actual non-pro-style offense worth watching in the ACC. Either way, that's a fine cover you have there, sir. Please turn to page 38, the "Kills Hooker And Takes Money Back" page of pass protections.
EERS EERS EERS. Bill's on WVU this morning, and HOLGO HOLGO HOLGO. If we had a college football fantasy league, Smith would be an easy first round pick, and if someone's willing to run it we might very well have one.
ERIC BIENIEMY STRIVES FOR PERFECTION. And instead, he gets Colorado football. :(
THE ONLY NCAA 2012 REVIEW YOU WILL EVER NEED. From Sexy Results! own Ian Cohen:
Besides each defensive backfield resembling an archipelago of Revis Islands, you will get sacked with astounding frequency if you don’t release the pass two seconds before a rusher comes into contact with him. And in terms of leading receivers on deep routes or zipping it in there, your quarterback will have the nuanced touch of Meg White.
Love you, Ian.

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: a waste of desert sand;
A shape with tiger body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Wind shadows of the indignant desert birds.
The darkness drops again but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Clemson to be born?

Hi. Long time lurker, first time poster.
With football season just around the corner, and after months of plowing through 800-plus-post threads, I thought it would be a good time to join up and find out exactly what the whole “z” key business is. (I also want in on the trivia.) In addition, my previous wretched hive of scum and villainy has, shall we say, been seeing more spiders in places that spiders should not be.
I don’t quite remember what brought me here – probably one of Orson’s write-ups – but I certainly want to stick around. A place whose users write in complete sentences but can also merge lawyer talk and lolcats (cf. ACS’ “I can haz Carbolic Smoke Ball?”) is my kind of place. Now, I’ve done enough reading to realize that some of my opinions and lifestyle choices may not necessarily be popular among the commentariat, but I hope those won’t be sticking points.
I’m a graduate and fan of Iowa State, home of the Championship Coach Guarantee: If you buy a football head coach we’re not actively trying to get rid of, you will get to a national championship game in four years or less. (Offer now valid for wrestling too.) I think I’m the first/only one Cyclone fan here, but at least I’m not the only Big XII-II member. As for Nebraska, you traitors can go straight to nonexistence and lose there on a safety in triple overtime.
I’mma hang up and listen.

It's all about technique
full windsor can be absurd if you intentionally make it big. I don’t like the half because it tends to lean to one side, even if you’re tying it perfectly.

The most recent visit was hilarious
We were planning to go to my uncle’s BBQ restaurant/sports bar, where, of course, everything would be free (so no need to be concerned about getting liquored up at home for cheap). Grandparents had everyone over to the house at 6 for “cocktail hour,” and we drank out of the nice crystal and sat in the living room just like we do for cocktail hour before a nice dinner. We were going to a place that serves meatloaf sliders and onion rings. Strange juxtaposition.

So, as the story goes, Texas horticulturalist, T. V. Munson developed more than 300 disease- resistant varieties of grapes. So, when phylloxera (a grape-root eating insect) struck the European vineyards in late 1800s, it was good ‘ole Munson who shipped supplies of native rootstock’s to European winemakers! By grafting their vines onto Texas-grown rootstock’s, Europeans were able to salvage what remained of their vineyards.

EERS EERS EERS....
What brother Bill doesn’t seem to understand about the ‘drama’ at W’f’nVU is this…. Oliver Luck is an Illuminati Grand Master. He couldn’t fire Bill Stewart outright without alienating a large portion of the state. Even with the genrous promise of a transition to the Athletic Department front office for Bill after Holgo took over, a substantial number of ’Eer fans were livid that he was forcing out a native son who went 9-4 in each of 3 seasons. Hence the Head Coach in Waiting ruse. I am damn near positive that Luck knew Stewart would do something stupid and underhanded to screw it up, and thereby make the transition much more palatable to Mountaineer Nation.
And the concerns about the defensive staff, pffft. You should do your research better, son. Jeff Casteel and most of his staff came to Morgantown with Rich Rodriguez, not Bill Stewart. When Rodriguez left for Michigan he offered Casteel and his staff jobs there (but he did not offer a job to Bill Stewart). Casteel stayed because he is a Mountaineer first. He’ll do just fine with Holgo. Hell, he’ll love someone who canget the offense to take some of the pressure off his defense.
Sorry for the wall of text, but I just had to clear those misconceptions up.

He went from “a solid defense in place” to “a defense brought in by the previous guy” which was wrong, as you pointed out, because DickRod brought him in, and also wrong because — well, it wasn’t going anywhere anyway.
Other than that, lots of numbers and sound and fury, signifying nothing.
