YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW? REALLY?
You don’t need to know that. What? Whatever. Fans don’t need to know. Anything.
I thought we could get through this without this stuff without an issue. But if you really wanna know how we’re gonna deal with it? I mean, really? Fine. I’ll let you know how we’re gonna deal with it.
—John Parker Wilson’s gonna go to Bonnaroo. And when he does, he’s gonna get the bad acid. We’ll call it Lyme disease and get him a medical exemption. Don’t ask me where we got the idea. You don’t need to know that, either.
—Jimmy Johns will leave to pursue a religious calling. He’s gonna go find a trust fund in his name for $250K in Buenos Aires and then scream, “Praise Jesus!” The trick is: he’s got to walk there. It’ll take him years, but we’re all about the process here at Alabama. I told Jimmy to watch the crocodiles in the Isthmus of Panama. He’s a good kid. He might make it.
—I will pit two of Shula’s signees against each other, and place both in a circle. The circle will be outlined in flames. Two shall enter; none shall leave. Because I’m going to have a sniper shoot the winner, and it’s all gonna happen in slow motion, because this is MY PRISON MOVIE, I’M THE WARDEN, AND YOU’RE ALL DANCING NANCIES IN MY SHAWSHANK SCRIPT!!!!
I also have an announcement, yes, an announcement everyone: there is a horde of killer bees loose on campus, and they’re following Leigh Tiffin around campus. Why he’s covered with honey, I don’t know. That’s why I returned to the college game: for young people, and the crazy things they do, like walking in front of a masked man carring a honey sprayer and a basket full of killer bees on campus and not thinking, “Oh, my, what’s a man doing with a mask on and a gun that sprays honey and a basket labeled “KILLER BEES”, nope not suspicious at all.” Gotta love that about college kids.
I believe that takes care of five scholarships right there. I mean, we’re praying for Leigh to recover.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I don’t have time for this shit.

George, my apologies. However, to people in the Deep South, anyone north of the Ohio River qualifies as a Yankee.

The two most pertinent examples of “yankee” from the OED are as follows:
1825 J. NEAL Bro. Jonathan i. I. 13 He was a Yankee, the very character of whom is, that he can ‘turn his hand’, as he says, ‘to any thing’. 1891 DUNCAN Amer. Girl in London 23 The Yankees are the New Englanders,..the name would once have been taken as an insult by a Southerner.
Mr. TAFKastOSUB is neither from New England, nor can he ‘turn his hand to any thing.’ As such, Mr. TAFKastOSUB is in fact not a Yankee, and we true Yankees would be much obliged if you’d stop associating him with us.

Man, tafkatosu@columbusub, you know once tOSU gets beat by USCw, all bets are off as far as braggin for anytime in the future…being as a PAC-10 team whacks you, thus saving you from getting beaten a 3RD time in the BCS Championship by Georgia this year— but if ya happen to luck up and keep Terrell “The Terrorist” Pryor out of jail-(tOSU’s Perriloux Version 2.0), you will have to face another SEC defeat on a National stage in front of millions of people…..again…..then of course the next year Florida will beat ya, then the next year Alabama—National Champs in 2011….35-10 over tSOU, the 5th loss in a row to a SEC team…….good luck with the Illini…
The thing with tOSU-they have great individual talent at spots, but when they match up with someone with equal or better talent, they fold. Alabama has only had maybe at best 3 guys on either side of the ball at most the past 6 yrs at times to go to the next level, once we get at least 5 or so guys on each side at NFL caliber, then we will compete….we are about 3 recruiting classes away from a SEC championship that will put us automatically in the BCS, unless the tOSU wants to bust that up for a micro playoff to get away from the SEC…..just sayin…..last 2 years aint been pretty, and I kinda feel sorry for tOSU……two words for Auburn-Parole Tide—-Auburn will be saying that after the prison raping they will get in Bryant Denny Stadium in November….better get an answer for Hulio Jones quick

# 60. tOSU is 0 for 3 vs Alabama all time
and for the record Bama is 4-1-1 in the Rose Bowl, 4-4 in the Orange Bowl, 8-4 in the Sugar Bowl, and 0-1 in the Fiesta Bowl.
Thats an aggregate score of 16-10-1 all times in “BCS” bowls.
also, congratulations on your 5 national championships, and of course you know Bama has 12.

yup, theyz called FERPA regs. federal educational rights to privacy act.
I used to sell online degrees for the “university” of phoenix, “online campus”
my consistent violation of “FERPA regs” always lead to poor quality scores. however lying to people and getting them to drop 18 large an AA degree kept me paid..
ps no one pay for UoP, ever, only let your employer pay for it, it is a total fucking scam “school”. although, when i worked there, i dicked around all day on the internets and discovered this lovely little corner of awsomeness.

They call Alabama the Crimson Tide…

TAFKastOSUB, in your post’s context, you did misspell “cannot,” not that I really care that much. I was simply pointing out the fact that you were acting as if you were above us “rednecks” (again, not “red necks”), when in actuality, neither you nor the state of Ohio is superior to the state of Alabama. And yes, Ohio State has been a more successful program than Alabama recently, but the Tide still has Ohio State beat in tradition and history, as well as the head-to-head series. As far as Saban, he will win and win big. It is inevitable. This is really getting to you, isn’t it? Maybe it’s time you left the state. Carpetbagger.

wow, TAFKastOSUB calling some arrogant is great.
No you did not not misspell “can not” but like most of your posts it was not used in the right context. That or Reggie Germany said it was OK to spell it that way.
The fine people of Oxford dictionary have this to say:
Both cannot and can not are acceptable spellings, but the first is much more usual. You would use can not when the ‘not’ forms part of another construction such as ‘not only’
But yes Saban wants to leave, he is no good, he is taking our money, the state of Alabama is terrible. The moment you take your mouth off of Maurice Clarett’s dick and stop being a bitch will be a nice moment.

At least we bothered to show up for our one BCS game. Ohio St. got stomped like a klan member at a black panther party.
Also, considering the sess pools that Cleveland and Columbus have become (Hey, we’re almost as bad as Detroilet!), I wouldn’t bring up the crime in B’ham, which is amateurish compared to your pro level shit. Crime is so bad in Ohio that it even spreads to your football teams (Re: Bengals).
