Kiffin to USC and other stuff

Sorry for being absent from this blog for so long, but honestly, there is not much to write about these days.  Except for this breaking news story last night:  The loss to Virginia Tech in the Chick-fil-A Bowl has scared Lane Kiffin into taking the job at USC.  Big news machines like ESPN for FOX Sports might tell you it's for different reasons, but come on, we know better.  He goes into Knoxville 14 months ago tooting his horn and talking the talk, but when he ends his season with the ass-whooping Tech gave him, he got frightened.  If he stays at Tennessee, he might have to face us again sometime.  The chances are tipped in his favor if he makes the trek over to USC.  Sure we might meet in the BCS title game (HA!) but the chances of us meeting in any other bowl game are slim to none, and slim just left town.

So now this leaves UT without a coach.  Who to pick, who to pick?  How about the Offensive Coordinator named to the 2009 All-Bowl team.  The same OC who kicked the crap out of the Vols in Atlanta?  I hear he's on the market and looking for action.  Just a thought.

Anyways, in other news, the men's bball team blew a lead against UNC and eventually lost the game, prompting score-contributor and sometimes commenter GWay to mass-text: "What. The. Fuck."  What the fuck indeed, sir.  It's tough to get mad at them when this loss was only the second of our season.

So there you go.  Crazy shit going down in the NCAA.  The way we like it.

Malcolm Delaney played against UNC and scored over 20 points. The problem is the rest of the backcourt combined for something insane like 3-33 shooting. UNC limited Delaney in the second half, and that was all she wrote.

I heard he wasn't going to make the trip. That's what I get for listening to CGally. NEVER AGAIN.

Also I should mention Greenberg said MD was not 100%.

If MD wins ACC POY can we start calling him MMFD?

Fixed. While he might be the best player in the ACC, I don't think he was as dominant as Ryan Williams. We'll have to come up with a different nickname for him. Submit your ideas below.

I'm thinking of other profane expression-based nicknames:

Malcolm God Damn Delaney
Malcolm Son of a Bitch Delaney
Malcolm Shit Sandwich Delaney
Malcolm Poppycock Delaney
Malcolm Rat Bastard Delaney

Do any of those work for you?

How about Malcolm "I don't understand the concept of drive and dish let alone have the capacity to pass to wide open teammates for open looks since I am a old school Fresh Prince of Bel Air type of ballllla from B-town" Delaney (MIDUTCODADLAHTCTPTWOTFOLSIAAOSFPOBATOBFBD)

or we could go with Malcolm "Greedy" Delaney (MGD)

That last suggestion was surely tongue in cheek. There is no room for that kind of foolishness here, sir.

Plus actually going back and looking up every letter in that acronym was pretty nerdy.

no worries...I actually have an acronym generator. I call it TPIUTMHTRPIERCOL (This program is used to make hard to remember phrases into easily recognizable collections of letters)

Catchy aint it? Anyone out there looking for a marketing genius?

Ha. I got a shout-out. How exciting.

And seriously. What the hell was that second half? I mean, UNC was the team that just lost to the College of Charleston. And we play good for a half and then crap out? Uncool.

Yeah who do they think they are? Our football team?

Keep the Delaney nicknames coming, I think we're almost there.

I like Moon Boots Delaney, because it would be cool if a basketball player could put on moon boots and jump 40 feet in the air.
