I know what you are thinking. How can Rich Rod not be the worst at everything imaginable, ever, right? Are you sure he is actually good at something? We haven’t heard about one thing he is good at besides being the losing-est loser ever, LOL. We want Jim Harbaugh and his shitty education!

NSFMF?

Hello, I hate you.

Everything is more complicated than you think. You only see a tenth of what is true.
You see a team that is 4-0 against a team that is 1-3.
You see a ranked team apparently on the verge of some great season.
You see a team that is disappointingly staring their entire season in the eye in only week 5.

My goal was to avoid being on easy target for Brian’s schadenfreude, so here are some rational thoughts clouded by the back end of about 20 beers.

• The game was a whole bunch of emotions: exciting, depressing, brutal,entertaining and predictable.
• It was awesome to meet F4H, Winfield and Dane and tailgate with them. They look like good guys to have on your side in a fight.
• It was more of the same from the offense.
• The defense played amazing, but was gassed and folded late in the fourth.
• Fuck.
• Some of Stinespring’s calls were horrendous. Once again 2009 will feature the option out of double and single back shotgun sets and much like the last 5 years our lunch was/will be eaten. We lost a fumble on a option in the red zone. STOP WITH THE OPTIONS.
• Ryan Williams looks like he will be a stud.
• Our offensive line cannot pass block nor establish a new line of scrimmage when running the ball. They are soft. Read this and get motivated. Please.
• What happened to Greg Boone and David Wilson?
• More mistakes on special teams, ugh.
• 99% of Alabama fans are class acts. But one old timer asked me as I was walking out, “What’s a Hokie?” As I began to answer he quickly interjected and said “a damn loser!” Enjoy death old man.

I remember being a little kid watching the 1991 Rose Bowl in the basement with my dad. I can remember the summer sausage slices with the Club crackers that we never got to eat unless it was a special occasion. The walls were green paisley wallpaper and the carpet was orange and brown shag. Even though I didn’t know what was going on I can recall being very nervous as if the fate of the world relied on this single game. Continue Reading “Longest. Off Season. Ever.” »

Well that was… unexpected. Michigan just announced that they will open up the newly renovated Big House with the UConn Huskies. There was much anticipation as to what team would open the monumental 2010 home season against the Wolverines and… well… fuck it ended up being UConn.  With this news I will kindly go back to my slumber.

NOTE: As CGB kindly posted I will be on the pot all weekend . Email me if you want to chat about the Obama beer party fiasco or if you have anything to share kid.k.keith@gmail.com

BRING BACK TYROD

Obviously I was wrong about Sean Glennon being anything better than a toaster oven at the quarterback positiion.  What a fucking loser.  You suck.  You played 5 fucking years and you throw the most bush league interceptions against a school who has the same talent level as a highschool team. What the fuck do you do to prepare?  You cannot read coverage and you aren’t even trusted to make your own audibles. Do us all a favor and quit the team.

Check out this clip of him going ape shit.  Probably not too happy the Buffs went 2-10.
