10.07.08 TENNESSEE RUNNING BACK SPEAKS DINOSAUR
Arian Foster, the Tennessee running back poised to become the Volunteers’ all-time leading rusher, has been troubled by a fumbling problem, talented backups cutting into his playing time, and the Vols’ general suckitude. So he’s taken the approach of not speaking to reporters. Unless they speak Pteradactyl, that is.
The Tennessee starting tailback… was requested for media interviews. He had a demand: whoever interviewed him had to speak Pterodactyl, some made-up dinosaur language. No interview was conducted.
It was kind of funny and it fit Foster’s quirky personality. But… 10 yards away, Coach Phillip Fulmer was addressing reporters about his quarterback crisis… It was a national story about an offense looking for leadership. It could determine the fate of Tennessee’s season and Fulmer’s legacy.
“Veeeeek! Veeeeek! Veeeeek!” Foster shrieked.
Yes. This is precisely the kind of crazy we need from our athletes. I’m tired of all the Jesus freaks and “I need the ball more” guys and clinical depression cases getting all the attention for being crazy. I’m not sure how we can get more athletes to act like this, but I’d guess that naming a black guy “Arian” is probably a good start.

This guy rules — let’s make this an Arian Nation!!!
That’s got to be good for a few points on the Fulmer Cup
btw, Neyland Stadium will now be known as the “Worlds Largest Deer Stand”
Don’t get cheap on me, Arian.
WDYA, that is a truly brilliant idea. If you lived in Tennessee, you could print up T-shirts and make yourself a fortune. Plus, you’d double your money by selling to all the white trash hicks who don’t know how to spell “Aryan.”
Jesus coaches Bama? How does he find the time?
Your move, Sheriff Gonna Getcha.
“I’m not sure how we can get more athletes to act like this…”

The only “thing” that I know that could remotely speak this language is Chris Bosh.
one of those reporters seriously should have asked him what the dinosaur word for “Fumble” was. Arian is a pretty funny name, almost as funny as the homeboys who’s mammas name them “Simeon”
