  1. The curse of Pattersons...
  2. The funny thing about it was that it was a reversak of the hiring. I think many people felt that Texas was going to hire a black coach any way possible. Even James Franklin got a good long look, but there was too much Bayloresque about the Vandy program at the time. Firing, there was some racism talk, but yeah, not much traction. The KU loss was fortuitous, no doubt about it.
  3. I'm not sure I've ever heard anyone exclaiming over the savory goodness of a cuppa decaf. Apparently, your mileage varies.
  4. Corso played in college in early 1950s, which means he played both ways. After an INT, Corso would stay on the field and QB the team. Did Prime play offense, too? /THunter
  5. I recall that Luck apparently refused to guarantee that he'd fire FUPM. Not that he wouldn't, just that he'd have to look over the whole situation. And then... Patterson...
  6. Fewer. Unless you just want shorter and/or skinnier aggy...
  7. NA beer has always seemed to me to be like Decaf coffee - is there really any point to consuming drugs with the active drug ingredient absent? Non-Alcoholic Beer - When you don't want to get drunk, but want to pee a lot.
  8. Is there any truth to the rumor that Biff is on the short list of replacements for Elko?
  9. Fraudulent. Moon Pie in 1917 was only chocolate. I understand you want to believe, but they're lying to you.
  10. Advertising fraud. Banana Moon Pie was never even thought of, much less made, in 1917. Surly there must be lawyers ready to litigate, around here somewhere.
  11. Replacement for RG3 at ESPN?
  12. Has anyone ever seen Treaty Oak and Klubnik Pere in the same soom at the same time?
  13. I remember 59, with 34 of that being on the last, garbage-time "drive", at 7-31. I also remember that SEC had the opportunity to pair us against aggy, but chose not to, possibly at aggy request. And praise jebus for that, 'cause it seemed like it coulda been an epic ass-fucking instead of ... never mind, it was actually an epic ass-fucking anyway.
  14. I'd think Charlie Strong could be a test case for 100% live AI replacement of actual speech. The only potential problem would be if the AI was unable to create some of the takes that seemed impossible to predict in the Surly Shared Experience. Thinking of having to have the ref explain to you that declining a penalty called against your opponent was not in your best interest. "No-brainer" took on a whole new meaning with Charlie.
  15. Did they discuss his vacuum cleaner repair business? It sure looked like a cover for nefarious undertaking.
  16. A truly amazing statistic. There is a mind-bottling amount of talent required to get more hits than plate appearances. I hope Schloss is on the trail of this.
  17. Maine used to be pretty decent at baseball. EDIT: doc beat me to it. I swear I've actually watched a Maine baseball game in person... mighta been Texas but for some reason Rice is in that memory bubble. Anyway - where were we? Oh, right: 0U sucks. And it's 1515.
  18. "Great hair and a famous family" FTMFW
  19. Be fair. Errybody gonna hate it.
  20. Choir. Preaching.
  21. I'm torn between comparisons of perspicuity with Lee Corso, or just assuming ESPN (and its owner, the Mouse) are in the process of pulling off Springtime for Hitler. Definitely some entertainment to be had.
  22. IIRC the issue is not sign stealing per se, but attending opponents' games. The filming has nothing to do with it, apparently. Just going to the games at all is the violation. It's not clear if it's okay if a complete stranger (or at least someone not employed by your school) goes, videotapes the opponent, and donates the film to you. This is a fairly new rule (or guideline or whatever they call it), from the 1990s I think. The original discussion was about fairness for the poorer schools, because of course those tickets and the travel are just beyond the means of Toledo, Miami of Ohio, and their ilk. Nothing about whether "sign stealing" is some sort of ethical or moral affront, mind you. There was talk of going in that direction so maybe something was added that makes it a foul for your staff to watch opponents' sidelines during a game and discern their signals and communicate their findings to coaches either live or at half-time.
  23. In retrospect, most of my disdain for Nebraska has been directed more toward Tom Osborne. While I have similar feelings about Rhule's choice of sideline attire, I don't particularly wish ill to the team itself. I join all who hope to see the Huskers de-pants not just Coach Prime's team, but several of their fellow B1G members as well.
  24. Translation: "We haven't admitted shit, and we will continue to not say shit, to NCAA investigators. We are will aware that NCAA penalties against Michigan will, as always, be applied to Eastern Michigan, West Michigan, and/or Central Michigan, so fuck NCAA and its investigators."
