People are already posting their teaser clips of NCAA 2008. This one features the tres cool new replay feature, where you may save highlights that you can revisit on the flatscreens hanging in your virtual locker room.
Oh, and Noel Devine? We don’t know his speed rating, but judging from this it’s somewhere between 93 and “HOLY SMOKING HELL.”
Again, what you’re about to read is straight foolishness. But at least we admit that.
The preliminary, subject to all edits, clarifications, admissions of complete brain spasm:
1. USC. No cracks. Just none: USC remains a smooth, creaseless facade of sheer talent with brilliant coaches pulling the levers, ensuring that anyone with half a tank of rationality will pick them at number one. This is also the obvious pick, too, which is sad but true for those of us who really love to make the contrarian’s pick.
The Tony Robbins of football continues to inspire with excellence and synergistic practices, you angels, you.
The wobbliest piece of USC’s American Quilt of Talented Angels–we’re sure Pete Carroll calls it something like that, as opposed to the old Cartesian oppression of “depth chart”–is at wide receiver, but even there the term “wobbly” remains, well, wobbly since Vidal Hazelton and Patrick Turner fit the mold of unmanageable USC receivers: tall, fast enough, good route runners with balletic skills to bring down balls in coverage.
Defensively, Carroll continues to run a pro defense in college garb. (more…)
Michael Lusher of Huntington, West Virginia was asleep yesterday morning when a bullet hit him in the head. He woke up four hours later surprised to see blood dripping from his skull.
Lusher was fine, but he did bleed and go to the hospital. That’s how you know it wasn’t WVU fullback Schmitt, whose titanium skull would have deflected the bullet directly back into the weak-ass rabbit-stabber of a gun it came from, destroying the weapon and severely injuring the no-doubt ass-drunk rifleman.
Like Lusher, though, we doubt Schmitt would have woken up. That would be letting the bullet win.
A couple of days ago post 3440 and the West Virginia-themed rap song it’s written around found its way into the hands of its makers, or at least fans of its makers. They were, on the whole, not real happy with what they found in the comments.
To review: the video…
…and a sampling of the comments:
the comments of each of you putting down and discrediting this song are not only ignorant but lacking in rationality. ive heard just a few reasonings behind the negativity being displayed by you naysayers. First and foremost you bash the song because of the fact that you hold stereotypical views of West Virginia as a state…
he says reconz and trailer park hustlers, in reference to local legends 304 reconz and 6′6 240…haters can eat a dick…
All fine comments. But we break out the big type for what may be the greatest single comment in the entire, 58 year history of this blog, typed here by da Fat Mac.
WEST VIRGINIA I LOVE THESE MOUNTAINSSS
SO WHAT……I DRINK DA BEAST AND FUCK FAT BITCHES IN HAY STACKS. WV IS THE SHITTTTT
We all, sir, are fucking fat bitches in hay stacks thanks to you. Salut! The commenter appears to be one of the guys who made the song, which immediately puts him in the front of the pack in the contest to make the EDSBS theme song.
We really can’t describe the awesomeness of the rap song attached to the footage in this video, but we’ll approximate by citing the evidence we can remember off the top of our brain:
–Referring to the WV state bird as “The middle finger.”
–Daring to use John Denver as a hip-hop chorus.
–this quote: “staying in the hills ’til the day I die.”
–And this one: “You get burned like them couches down in the W.”
–And the fact the lead rapper sounds like he forgot to take his retainer out.
It’s by someones named Profit Money and D-Why, whose webpage is here. We have given you your gift for the weekend. Now enjoy it.
EDSBS Store Live it. Love it. Wear it until it's ripped from your body by envious hordes of tailgaters.
