Uncoached found some pictures of a Duke underclassman that would probably get you “red E” to polish up….your resume’. You know, so you can get a good job and make enough money that she’d find you attractive. Or you could probably just buy a tanning bed and put it in your basement. Just leave a trail of knockoff designer bags into your mother’s house and you’re all set.
Former Georgia quarterback and current NFL prospect Matthew Stafford is about a month away from the Brinks truck backing up to his front door. The only question remains, “From whom shall those riches flow?” Probably not San Francisco, as Niners coach Mike Singletary has already given Stafford his stamp of disapproval after noting that the quarterback responded negatively to questions about his parents’ divorce. It’s a round brown stamp, actually. From AJC, via Shutdown Corner:
Niners head coach Mike Singletary told KNBR (680 AM) in San Francisco this week that “if you’re going to look at drafting a guy in the first round, and you’re going to pay him millions of dollars, and asking him about a divorce about his parents, if that’s going to be an issue, uhhh, then you know what, maybe he doesn’t belong here.”
Stafford, a potential first-round draft pick, told the Detroit Free Press that the psychologist presumed Stafford had “unfinished business” about his parents’ split in high school.
My parents would get divorced if they weren’t so fat and ugly; who would take either one of them now? I wonder why Singletary would go out of his way to slap around a guy that his team doesn’t need anyway. Why would a defensive-minded coach need a seventh quarterback anyway? They already have a No. 1 pick in Alex Smith, who blows, yes, but what would a defensive-minded, run-first coach do with a decent quarterback, anyway? Besides make him stare at his brown stamp.
Stafford is working out with the Lions today, and if he doesn’t get therapy after that, he won’t be any good to anybody.
Central Michigan University has agreed to a payout of $450,200 after its former women’s soccer coach was accused of getting stinky on his hangdown with two of his players, according to ESPN.
The [players], a senior and a freshman, each had a sexual relationship with Tony DiTucci because of his “skilled manipulation and seduction,” lawyer Jennifer Salvatore said.
“They were young individuals who held the coach in high esteem,” she said in an interview. “He made them believe they were special and he was in love with them. Looking back on it, they wish they had handled it differently.” [...]
DeTucci was replaced in midseason by Tom Anagost, whose interim tag was removed after his team finished second in the MAC. As for the Mack Daddy, he said that players totally came onto him first. Banging your coach is great until you realize that you’re sharing a bunk with one of your teammates. Hey, coaches these days don’t have time for rebuilding seasons. You gotta win now.

When Michael Vick finishes up his time as a guest of the federal government, he’s expecting to go back into the NFL and score one more payday before his career goes the way of…wait, his career’s already done that once. To the blockquote!
The embattled Atlanta Falcons quarterback is hoping to earn as much as $10 million a year or more, according to court filings in his bankruptcy case. Under the plan he submitted to the court, Vick would keep the first $750,000 of his annual income over the next five years. After that, a percentage would go to his creditors based on a sliding scale.
It seems to be a foregone conclusion that (a) The Rog will let Vick back in the league, and that (b) Vick is going to be a sustainable force on the field, either at quarterback or at some other position on the field. But is it? I guess all it would take is one phone call from Jerry Jones to make it happen. Personally, I’m more interested in booing Vick on the field than seeing him turn into another Maurice Clarett, not that I would mind. Or care. If the NFL has taught us anything, it’s that clueless athletes devoid of charisma are in plentiful supply. You might say it’s a dog-eat-dog world. Vick certainly would.
Gunaxin makes the best argument for the Big Ten that I’ve heard in some time–and he does it exclusively with visual aids. Which is much better than visual AIDS, which is what happends when you contract visual HIV. Anyway, see the whole gallery there. See my favorites here. That’s how it works.
