Purple Drank on ESPN...so much more entertaining than Lebronwatch

yes...this happened on ESPN. Trey Wingo talked about Purple Drank. everytime to word Drank came out of his mouth i nearly died from laughter. the best thing about the mainstream media discovering things like Lean is that they then get to explain it to the regular viewer (aka white folks not aware of shit). there little 5 minute piece on the history of Purple Drank was seriously some of the best unintentional comedy ive seen in a long time. good job ESPN.

SATURDAY, ATHFEST

Random Bo Jacksoness on Friday

always.

my old Bo Jackson jersey still fits.

in serious need of an old NES and Tecmo Super Bowl. it's been far too long since i rushed for 1000 yards and 11 touchdowns in a single game with Bo Jackson.

why aren't the teabaggers protesting the World Cup?

So ESPN 's ratings for the World Cup are up like 50% or some shit like that. You know what that means? There are a shitload more illegal immigrants in this country than there were 4 years ago. Glenn Beck, why the fuck isn't your crazy ass all over this?

Well that was no big deal after all.

So a lot of hype and worry and all we get are a 12 team Big 10, a likely 12 team Pac 10 (once Utah jumps ship), and a 10 team Big 12. Math is hard. Oh yeah and Boise State joined the Mountain West...who should possibly think about adding Houston as well...just sayin. Anyways the SEC gets to stay as is, which I think is mostly a relief to all of us. As fun as the thought of getting Texas A&M kind of was, i'd rather not add another school to fuck shit up for Auburn if we can help it.

Regardless of Texas saving what's left of the Big 12 I still imagine we will see Big Ten expansion to 16 teams in the next five years and the same from the Pac 10/12 and the SEC as well. Greed is the real power in college football and the dollar signs were just lighting up everyone's eyes last week.

3 thoughts on the conference realignments.
1. Nebraska is going to be able to kick some serious ass in the Big Ten. I predict at least 5 or 6 matchups with Ohio State in the Big 10 title game over this next decade...assuming they hold at 12 teams.

2. Colorado and Utah will both be middle of the pack schools in the Pac 12 at best and likely near the bottom of the standings every season. This is no big change for Colorado lately, but I think Utah is going to regret leaving the Mountain West where it was a lot easier to go undefeated and get to BCS games. Utah will be lucky to go 8-4 vs. the likes of USC (probation or not), UCLA, Oregon, Oregon State, and improving Washington, Stanford, Cal, and the Arizona schools. The only real teams I think they'll be better than on a year to year basis will be Washington State and Colorado.

3. Boise State will step in to the Mountain West and keep kicking ass like they always do. Sure BYU and TCU will offer tougher challenges than Nevada and Fresno...but still I see BCS bowls in the Smurfs' future.

East Bound & Down?

So it's looking more and more like Texas A&M is about to become the 13th member of the SEC. Rumored targets for that 14th spot seem to be the usual suspects of Clemson, Georgia Tech (my vote), Miami, FSU (my 2nd choice), Virginia Tech (boring), and possibly even Big 12 leftovers Kansas (huh?) or Missouri (another fucking Tiger!) The addition of Mizzou kind of makes the most sense as far as expanding the leagues footprint into new markets goes. It would give the league a midwestern team with two large tv markets (Kansas City & St. Louis). Where Texas A&M seems like a perfect fit, it's hard to imagine Missouri as a member of the conference...but then again Arkansas doesn't really make much sense either. One thing that can be certain is that if the SEC adds two Big 12 schools then Auburn is gonna be the SEC West school sent packing to the East.

Auburn moving the Eastern Division and back to yearly rivalry games with Florida and Tennessee would fire up oldschool fans, despite the fact we'd lose our yearly matchups with LSU that most of us love so much. and the lighter competition near the bottom of the league with Kentucky and Vandy would be nice (not that recent matchups should prove that to be a fact). Also the dream scenario of possibly facing Alabama in an SEC title game some day would suddenly be a possibility. And who doesn't want to see that?

I'm pretty sure (insert team name here) needs a QB

it's the perfect chance for Mitch Mustain to finally get to play QB somewhere for a season. the NCAA will let any USC junior or senior transfer without having to sit out. i'm pretty sure there's some sick talent on that squad that might be itching to get out of town right now. UCLA should clean house on the Trojans. (Having been too lazy to read the whole article the 1st time I now realize transferring to another Pac 10 team still means you gotta sit for a year...but yeah Tennessee could seriously use a good QB, Mr. Mustain. Or Ole Miss or UGA or Clemson, etc...)

every time i read something about USC's probation i laugh at what Lane Kiffin must be going through. couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

Still talking about 2004 (like an asshole)

Forfeit. What an ugly word.

So the hammer is finally coming for USC and at least the possibility exists that they may be stripped of wins during the 2004 season...a season that some team you may or may not have ever heard from some town in Alabama got royally screwed. This is going to of course rile up a fanbase that has been hanging on to this feeling of being cheated for the last 5 years to the point that it's starting to be like Auburn is that dude who won't shut the fuck up abput that ex girlfriend who cheated on him and married some other dude. Noone cares anymore but you dude. And you were just starting to get over it AND then suddenly that bitch is getting a divorce and all those old scars are rearing their ugly head........and so what does this now mean regarding the 2004 season? Should Auburn be retroactively awarded the BCS championship despite the fact they didn't play in the game? Technically shouldn't it fall to Oklahoma? Oklahoma did get crushed on national tv in the most one sided beatdown in a title game of the last decade and Auburn DID go undefeated. What about Utah? this is making my head hurt.

Auburn fans be a crazy (some would say whiny, overly sensitive, borderline insane) group and they are gonna want a piece of that 2004 title no matter what. My solution for what should become of the 2004 title would be an old fashioned split. Auburn could be retroactively awarded the 2004 AP National Title by the sportswriters who I think would all agree were a better team than the Sooners and Oklahoma would be the default BCS champs since they will have technically had the title game forfeited to them. Some Auburn fans will cry "fuck that bullshit!" but I think it is the most logical way to resolve an issue that really doesn't even fucking matter anymore. I mean it was 6 years ago. All the players and coaches are gone now anyways. But yeah, I'm just sayin' it's probably not the worst idea in the world. Besides getting an AP title kinda feels like the more respectable of the two anyways.

But honestly I say fuck it. Noone needs a goddamn trophy or AP poll to tell Auburn fans that the 2004 Tigers were awesome. It's time to let go of the past.

As far as that Heisman goes in 2005....send that shit to Vince Young now! He deserved it more back then anyways.

RIP Big 12

There's a serial killer on the loose named the Big 10 and you are next, Big East. Watch out!

The fact that all it took was for Nebraska to say adios to the BIG 12 to give Texas the justification it needed to jump ship is probably a telling sign that they didn't deserve to survive. I really just feel bad for the schools like Baylor and Iowa State who noone wants. Kansas and Kansas State I assume you join the Mountain West (not a bad deal really, they would both be more competitive with those schools anyways). I just wonder how long the SEC waits before robbing the heart of the ACC? A year...maybe two?

If all this bullshit actually results in a playoff then I'm fine with it...but if it's just a case where the Big 10 and Pac 10 gain more power...well then fucking this noise.

a song dedication for the Big 12

The Verlaines "Doomsday"

thought of the day

Fuck expansion.

Auburn lands another QB who spells his name weird.

what is it about Auburn signing QBs with unusual spellings? Kodi, Tyrik, and now a Kiehl. hopefully this one works out better than the other two. so yeah i've been out of the loop a bit of late but stud recruit Kiehl Frazier committed to the Tigers this weekend. he was Auburn's #1 target and is ranked in the top 4 QBs in the nation. he's a dual threat and seems like a natural fit for the Auburn offense. Gus Malzahn was the key factor in Frazier picking Auburn over home state Arkansas and about 30 other DI schools (including LSU, Miami, Michigan, Notre Dame, Texas Tech, UCLA, and way more than i feel like naming). so again, keeping Malzahn around for another season will also be key for Auburn holding onto Frazier because if Gus skips town after the season for a head coaching job (seriously this is gonna be a source of anxiety every year regarding our offensive guru) then all bets are off. but right now we've got him.

Auburn, your music taste is hella shitty.

I'm so annoyed/saddened/unsurprised by Auburn's lackluster choices for fans to vote on as the 2010 intro music that I refuse to even post the link. I'll just throw out the words "dated" and "boring". A bunch of typical classic rockers and some shitty hip-hop songs that only people in the state of Alabama are still listening to.

The obvious choice for me would be of course if the Tigers would just join forces with the Dark Lord and use "Raining Blood" by Slayer as their intro music. Sure it's gonna piss off the 99% Christian fanbase...but think of how fucking intimidating the team would be as it charged the field to the sound of thunder and lightning and Kerry King's mighty riffage. There truly is no imagination in the world of college football. Esp not in the south. Oh well.

Here are 10 other equally awesome songs that noone will ever use for their intros...but should.

1. Iggy and the Stooges "Search & Destroy"
2. The MC5 "Kick Out the Jams"
3. Motorhead "Killed by Death"
4. Black Flag "Rise Above"
5. The Misfits "Where Eagles Dare" (just think how awesome it would be to have a stadium of kids screaming "I Ain't no Goddamn Son Of a Bitch!"
6. The theme music for The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly
7. James Brown "Super Bad"
8. Wu Tang Clan "Triumph" (this would be the most epic thing ever)
9. N.W.A "If It Ain't Ruff"
10. Mobb Deep "Get It Twisted" (a song about murdering people set to an awesome "She Blinded me With Science" sample. Yes. It would rule."

LeNeverGonnaWinTheChampionship

I think LeBron should go play in Greece, there he might have a chance to ever win a title cuz it sure as shit isn't happpening in the NBA.

Do I care who James plays for next season? Not really. I mean it's not like he's gonna come play for the fucking Hawks. Do to my natural hate for all New York teams i'd prefer it not be the Knicks. The thought of LeBron going to Chicago in his attempt to be like Mike kind of amuses me because I get the feeling Jordan (in all his petty jealousy) wouldn't be too thrilled with LeBron taking his "chosen one" act to the Bulls. All I can really say is that the city of Cleveland is now officially on Suicide Watch.

BOOOOOOOOOOO

Seriously, you got outscored over 25 points a game IN THE 2ND ROUND OF THE PLAYOFFS!

It's time for some changes on this team because the 2nd round is as far as this collection of players will ever make it. So I say Atlanta should just let Joe Johnson go his shit talking way (esp considering Crawford outplayed him the entire playoffs) and the Hawks add some legit players to the bench. Josh Smith and Horford and Crawford are the only 3 players i'd say are untouchable...and the rest of the roster needs a serious shake up.

But the sad truth is that Atlanta (which in all honesty SHOULD be a huge NBA town with the social and racial makeup of the city) just isn't a place players give a shit about playing. Oh well. This might be the end of the line for this short lived run of respectability for the Hawks.

i am breaking up with the Hawks and Braves

Baseball and Basketball are now useless to me. I should just use the offseason for football to just take a break from sports period. There is really only so much disappointment I can tolerate during a year.

Fuck the NCAA

Nice new bullshit rule that keeps outside the box recruiting practices like Auburn's Tiger Prowl from existing. Fuck the NCAA, fuck em forever. You know what, I DO hope we get some super confrences and I hope they all vote to tell the NCAA to go fuck themselves and start their own football league. The NCAA is the most useless organized body in the known universe.

Good Job, Hawks

Way to beat a team you should've been able to sweep...now fucking show up vs the Magic and make Dwight & Co. Earn that 2nd round victory.
