Bought My App. St. T-Shirt...

I've seen no less than five thousand Appalachian State T-shirts on IU's campus today. I know that they are conference/territorial rivals, but I never went out and bought a Towson State tee...

Has it occurred to anyone else that the only reason that Tiki Barber retired was so that he could remember all the shitty things he wanted to say about people? He seemed like a super-nice guy in the league; turns out he's this big asshole. First he made fun of Eli and his leadership abilities (or lack of). Now he's turned his sights to Tom Coughlin and said that is why he retired. Explicitly, he said that he retired because it wasn't fun anymore. You know what else isn't fun? Listening to you whine like a little schoolgirl bitch. Thus, today I'm retiring from you. No more of your crappy commercials; no more of your misguided insight/anger; no more of your children's books; as of today, I am officially retiring from Tiki Barber.

The beginning of the UK football game is always a very exciting time for the fans. There's lots of noise and highlights that fire up the bluenecks, even a little rap ditty from the squad. This year, perhaps the most anticipated in the last fifteen or more, there is the worst of all. Blowing up the other team's mascot was bad; two-bits was worse; the Gatorade commercial-like pregame video only lead to mass confusion among the fans leading up to a terrifying and unexpected explosion and a football team! That was a lot to handle. No one was cheering. Here is the exact transcript from what went on in my head in these 45 seconds: 'what is this?...I guess this is leading up to the sweet video I've been waiting to see for nine months...BOOM! (outside noise)...there's a football team...[end] It was really awkward. They need to change that pronto.
