You may remember these adorable and yet soccer-lethal scamps from Outcasts United, Warren St. John’s book about the struggles and triumphs of a refugee soccer team located here in Atlanta. Well, they don’t call it non-profit without reason, and the fundraising never ends. Please take a moment to go to the Fugees Causes page on Facebook, where they’re engaged in a fierce battle for a $10,000 prize matching the number of donations made before 2:00 today. They’re about 35 donors behind, so take a moment to check out Fugees Family’s website, watch some ridiculously tough children introduce themselves, and then give whatever you can via Causes on Facebook here.

The recommended donation is $25, but you can give $10 or $100 or whatever you can, because it’s flexible like that. Fearless leader kicked in $50, but that’s because he keeps track of receipts come tax time and also happens to care about this cause very, very much.

Hit it, drunken soldiers of charity.

In addition to hiring the driving coordinator potentially saving Georgia players thousands of dollars of fines and missed games annually, Georgia may want to consider a short-term hire in the messaging and media relations department.

Ealey says he doesn’t agree with those who have said the suspension was not stiff enough. He said on Tuesday Spikes “shouldn’t, I think, get suspended at all.”

YOU GOTTA REINVALUTATE YOUR THANKIN’, SON! STAY ON MASSAGE! KEPT TO YUR TALKING PINTS!

LeGarrette Blount met with the Pac-10 commish yesterday to discuss his possible reinstatement, but he’s a sideshow at the moment to the bombardment Oregon rolls out on opponents week-to-week. QUACK BITCHES.

We’re down with the flu today. May attempt rally. Apologies.

Today’s schedule was completely botched up by a plane flight which had wireless, a term Delta seems to believe means “this flight does not have wireless.” As we are now in Vegas, programming should resume shortly. As an apology, I will put a thirty dollar bet on the upset bid of your choice, as determined by a majority or plurality of the votes. Regular programming to resume tomorrow.

We are joined on the EDSBS podcast this week by internet bard and Bob Stoops supporter Scipio Tex of Barking Carnival. Discussed: the defensive strategies of choice against Texas' offense, the enduring filthy nastiness of a Will Muschamp defense, and what variation of livestock rape he believes Bob Stoops is most likely to commit.

Peter will continue the discussion with Tex over at Burnt Orange Nation tomorrow night at his place, so do be the inquisitive sort and listen to whatever other high crimes he accuses the Oklahoma coaching staff of enjoying. Kevin Wilson always seemed like a wire fraud kind of guy to us.

It wasn’t raining tonight, bitches. (Img: photoshopper Solarcane.) This is your overnight thread. EDSBS The Magazine and the Alphabetical begin cooking now, which is why we’ve placed them both to marinate in a bath of vodka and psychoactive medication. See you tomorrow.

Jim Donnan of Buster Sports joins us to lower his Q rating irreparably, discuss the SEC in general (and Tim Tebow and head injuries, natch) and give us quality Barry Switzer stories involving Kool and the Gang. Joanna, we looooooove you. Enjoy.

Hitman Monkey doesn’t like doing this, but it is his job: EDSBS Live is off tonight due to circumstances beyond anyone’s control. We promise to make it up to you in several ways.

1. We have a guest for next week’s podcast working who should be spectacular.

2. We’ll buy you a beer if we see you in person. Really, we will, even if you’re into the quadruple-brewed Belgian monk nectar made from hops rolled on the clean, peachy ass-cheeks of Brussels’ finest maidens.

3. We’ll have a show next week of exceptional length and outstandingly mediocre execution. You know, ladies, like most of the really well-hung, good-looking men you’ve ever slept with. (Average men: like Avis, we try harder.)

We are joined this week by Janie Campbell of the Seventh Floor Blog, who discusses Miami, their early success in the college football season, and the supreme iciness of Jacory Harris and his LV scarves.
