UM 2010 QB commit Cornelius Jones

Saturday, July 11th, 2009

This is a clip of another UM commit for the class of ‘10.  He reminds me of Pat White in that he has a deceivingly strong arm.  Scout only has him ranked as a 2* player (which is ridiculous).  When scout re-evaluates I think he will get to 3*. With two VY type commit for this class it should let RR sleep a little better at night and bring heavy competition in the future. Enjoy……

I call it the shitty season

Football is still months away.  Basketball is over.  Hockey is over.  The US Open will last till Sunday, Monday at the latest.  Baseball is boring.  UFC 100 is one night.  Bleaghkch.

Here’s what Jurassic Park (one of my all time favorites) would have been like if the dinosaurs said “hey.”

Because it’s never a bad time to talk college football playoffs…

Clay Travis wrote about Crazy Mike Leach’s Crazy Playoff Plan.  64 teams.  Balls to the wall action.  Can I get a “what, what?!”

Read and enjoy.  I for one, would shit my pants if this ever happened.  Alas, the Big Ten’s douchebag commisioner deprives us of what could be the greatest things EVAH!

Five Star Recruits aren’t all they’re cracked up to be.

In fact, of the 2005 class, they were more likely to be arrested than drafted by an NFL team.  Interesting read from Clay Travis.

Maybe we should spend more time getting these people prepared for life than telling them they are the next PacMan Jones.  Wait, did I say that right?

This is more like it!

I was told this was against the 2nd string D, but Tate looks like a badass.  (Don’t pay attention to the Pro-style QBs, they won’t see the field this year).

A Smattering of Happenings

Tuesday, March 17th, 2009

The Tennessee Vols of the hardwood are a 9 seed playing OK St. in the NCAA Tourney.  IF they get by OK St. they get to play Pitt, who will absolutely destroy them.  So, the season is effectively over.  The loss to Miss St. in the SEC tournament Championship game sealed UT’s fate.  A lot of people have been bitching and moaning about how tough a schedule they played (#2 SOS) and the RPI (Pretty good I imagine) being so high and still they got a 9 seed.  To those people I say, “Did you watch them play a fucking game this year?”  This is a team that is inconsistent as hell, rarely plays the kind of game that anyone would call “competent” and failed to dominate the shittiest major conference in the country.  Sorry, but 9 seed is about right.  They underachieved like a motherfucker and never figured out how to play defense, or play together for that matter.

On the Foosball field, the Vols have been making a lot of noise, well, Lane Kiffin has been making a lot of noise.  And just today Bryce Brown, the #1 recruit (RIVALS) committed to UT.  Brown said, “God told me to be a Volunteer.”  For all the crazy that Kiffin brings to the table, he certainly can recruit.  It remains to be seen how good they will be on gameday (a quick rundown of some games that matter:  Florida will beat us by double digits, Georgia has a good chance of falling because of all that they lost, and Alabama could be a huge upset.  Kiffin will probably have one next year) but grabbing Brown and fellow recruiting holdout David Oku will certainly be big on offense.  What does all of this mean?

Basically, it means that until someone puts the smackdown on the Vols, we are gonna be talking some mad shit*.  The floodgates are open.  You have been warned.

*Check out that signing class bitches.  That is a sign of the motherfuckin future.  UT gonna straight run shit like it was 1998.  Florida Faggots and Alabammer Bitches better watch out.  Lane Kiffin is bringing his Crazy Talkin’ Gridiron Travelin’ Show to your town and he ain’t leavin’ till the men are in tears and the women’s panties are soaked.  We have arrived at a new beginning.  UT football will no longer ride the waves of mediocrity on the Good Ship Fulmer.  No.  We will be at the helm of the SEC Freighter, bringing the best fucking football conference in the country to further glory, rising to the likes of which have never been seen.  Hell Fucking Yeah.  And no, I don’t think I am overstating anything.

It also means that the concentration of power in the SEC will only deepen.  Florida returns all but two people, or something crazy like that, and Urb and Timbow are returning to rape the rest of the country one more time with annoying “Jump Passes” and horrible but effective one yard QB draws.  Alabammy has a young team and were #1 for a lot of last year.  LSU will return an always talented team.  Add all of that to one more team that will have more talent than a beach got sand and you can prepare yourself for many more years of SEC domination.  Not to mention the overall team speed of SEC teams is demonstrably greater than any other conference and hell, if you got money to put down, put it down on the Southeastern Conference.

Plus, you can’t coach this kind of talent.

Um, Wow?

I really don’t know how impressed I should be by this because I’ve never seen it done before or attempted anything close to it on my own, but I have to imagine jumping out of a swimming pool is pretty amazing, right?

Coach O. UT’s new D-line Coach/Recruiting Coordinator

Friday, January 30th, 2009

Special thanks to Hobs for sending this my way.  I was crying.  Hilarious.

This is an Ole Miss song that glorifies everything that is awesome about Coach O.

If you haven’t ever heard Coach Orgeron talk, you need to.  I am so glad this guy is on UT’s staff now.

Musings…

Wednesday, January 7th, 2009

My thoughts on Thursdays big game:  I have a feeling Florida is going to win.  I just don’t see Oklahoma pulling it off.  How’s that for in depth analysis?

Bowl Games:  Ok, I actually watched a little bit of a few of them and well, they weren’t all crap.  Although when the announcers start talking like bowl games are a better idea than a playoff I have to turn it off.  You can feed me this bullshit, just don’t lie to me.  That’s all I ask.

Fox’s Coverage of the BCS games:  It is horrific beyond words.  I watched some of the Ohio St.-Texas game and I was miserable the whole time.  The announcers were constantly wrong about which player was doing what.  They had camera shots that would zoom in on logos like Budweiser and Gatorade.  This wasn’t just between commercial breaks, it was between plays.  And it was so painfully obvious.  The down and distance graphic was consistantly wrong.  At one point an announcer said Chris Wells had 9 rushes for 89 yards or something.  Then he broke off  an eight yard run.  A graphic popped up that said he had 10 rushes for 89 yards.  WTF, Fox?  The announcers were consistantly wrong about what had happened on the play before and replays were at a premium.  It was the worst presentation I’ve ever seen.  I guess that’s what happens when you don’t show a college game all year and then pay millions of dollars to play the most important ones.

But they did handle the reaction shots nicely.

GETSOME!!!!!11!!1

The Colts:  Seriously?  You lost to this dude?

The Ravens:  That’s what happens when you get five turnovers.  Did you see Flacco’s stats?  9-23 for 123 or something rediculous like that.  All I’m saying is the Titans have to make the rookie QB play.

The Titans:  Unfortunately,  Kevin Mawae is out for the game.  So they may get five more turnovers.  Who knows?  I am 47% less confident about the game now that Mawae is out.

Players Titans cannot afford to lose for the Ravens Game, in order of importance:

Kerry Collins  (that would lead to more Vince Young)

Kevin Mawae

Chris Johnson

Cortland Finnegan

The LB Core

I don’t include any D lineman because we fared OK without Haynesworth and KVB.

That is all till Thursday night.  Apologies for the smattering of posts lately.  Been a little busy, a little writer’s blocked, and a little lazy.

Welcome to the New SEC.

Tuesday, December 9th, 2008

Whatever you thought of the SEC before this year, you can throw it out.  The new balance of power for the next several years will rotate between Florida and Alabama.  The SEC Championship game this year is only the first battle between these two for SEC Supremecy.  Don’t believe me?  Take a look.

A Hodgepodge of Happenings

Tuesday, November 11th, 2008

 editor’s note:  All of the fucking cool symbols used in this post turn out to be fucking question marks when you post it.  So pretend you’re looking at wacky symbols the whole time, not question marks.  Life is a series of endless disappointments.  That is all.

Checking in on a few things:

-The Titans are 9-0.  Scared to say anything.  Don’t want to jinx it.

-College Football Roundup:

?  Wyoming?  Really?

?  Penn St is in the Big 10, thus destined to not play in the national championship this year.  There was talk that even if they did go undefeated, a 1 loss team might still be ahead of them.  It’s best if the Big 10 just takes a break for a little while.  Enjoy your Rose Bowl and don’t bother the rest of us with your “football.”

?  If everything works out, the SEC Championship game between Florida and Alabammy will be a de facto National Championship Semi Final.  Fuck that.  I want a National Championship Semi Final without any queer latin in front of it.  De Facto can lick my taint.

?   I had to have one more thing because I wanted to use all the suits.  I just found the symbols button.  Look for more cool symbols to be heading your way.  Like this:  ?  What the fuck is that?!  No one knows. (ed note:  Yes we do know.  It’s a question mark.  Moving on…)

-NBA Happenstance:  No one watches the NBA before January and mostly no one watches until after the Super Bowl.  Against the better judgement of my friends, I joined a couple of Fantasy Basketball Leagues to give that a go.  The terror…the terror.  Now I have to pay attention to this bullshit.  Apparently because no one watches, star players think of every excuse to get out of playing early in the season.  I have so many injuries and absences on my team it is impossible to pick a starting lineup.  Mehmet Okur is in fucking Turkey right now!  Hey you fuck!  The fucking season started!  Come get some rebounds and high shooting percentages for me you queer!  (?  Look, a trident!) (ed note:  it was a wicked trident)  So in conclusion, you rich assholes need to play the fucking game you’re getting paid to play.  I don’t want to hear about sprained ankles and strained shoulders, I’m on to you dickbags.  Man up and play!  (? Fancy.) (ed note:  I’m not even going to tell you what that was.  It’s too depressing.)

-The Phillies won a couple of weeks ago.  I’m sure no one noticed so I’m filling you in.  They asked one of the Phillies what he was going to do now that he won the World Series and he said, “Reporting for Spring Training on Monday.”  ZING!!!!  You get it?  Baseball is long.  Ah, this baby’s wasted on you, where’s Chad?

I’ll remember Phil Fulmer for two things…

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

Working like Heck.

and

1998.  (I know it’s a gay picture, sorry.)

Anyway, while I know that it’s time, I do feel a bit saddened about Ol’ Phil leaving the sidelines.  So allow me this moment to remember a man that gave his all for Tennessee.  And pour one out for Fulmer and remember the good times.  There were quite a few.

Toss Up!

I Have No Idea Why No One Is Talking About This

A ref in the LSU-South Carolina game tackled a player.  TACKLED A PLAYER WITH THE BALL!!!  HE THROWS A SHOULDER INTO THE PLAYER RUNNING THE FOOTBALL!!!

This is almost as bad as ESPN ignoring the “Brett Favre selling out his former team” story.
