Pat Summitt finally evened the score with Tennessee men's coach Bruce Pearl for his shirtless body-painting episode in January by donning a cheerleader uniform and firing up the crowd during last night's mudhole-stomping of Florida.
This video is everything awesome and lame about college sports. It's great because it's infused with an honest kind of rah-rah spirit that you don't see often in pro sports. On the other hand, it's a completely unnecessary besmirching of the most holy of sports institutions, the cheerleading uniform. This video, with its Dick Vitale soundtrack of "Ohhhhhs," is sure to haunt my purest cheerleader fantasies for the next fortnight. Damn Tennessee.

I’m kinda glad I missed this during the game.
I bet that in Tennessee, she’s considered hot.
But not hotter than pure thread livestock.
Peyton was, by far, the most unsexy part of that video.
Isn’t there a “nightmare fuel” tag on With Leather? Because if there is, now is the time to use it.
I am convinced that last night was the worst night of my life. Here’s the rundown:
1) The god-awfulness that is that video up there.
2) Florida going down 27 by not guarding the painted area… at all.
3) ESPN showing a shot of Phil Fulmer and Peyton while Brad Nessler says, “Well I’ll tell you what, I don’t know anybody who doesn’t like Peyton Manning” to an audience heavily comprised of Florida fans.
4) After the game, my roommate watched that night’s episode of The Unit on DVR, which I am now convinced is the worst show on TV. Dennis Haysbert actually screamed during a gunfight, “COME ON! YOU GUYS WANT TO LIVE FOREVER?!?!?!?” That’s right, this fucking show made President Palmer quote Starship Fucking Troopers.
Worst night of my life.
Lame. At least I didn’t Hep. A from this.
I saw this on the news last night and I swear there was a glimpse of granny panties. Not that I was looking for it or anything.
“Who would you rather bone, Pat Summitt or Jack Nicholson?”
“Jack Nicholson now, or 1974?”
“1974″
(thinking)……”Pat Summitt”
She’s no Helen Mirren!
All this because Sammy “the Bull” Pearl painted his chest? I enjoy always bringing up the low points in public figures’ lives, especially when it is not pertinent at all.
This is the best Summitt take by blog on the web.
MMP, I bet that in any state she would kick your ass.
Nice gams, dame.
At the 2:32 point of that clip, one of the refs behind the scorer’s table covers his eyes and puts his head down as if he is embarrassed to be witnessing that. I don’t blame him.
