thank you, mack brown

Thursday, December 9th, 2004

We here at Propeller Skies would like to thank Mack Brown for prostituting himself on national television and begging the coaches and media for votes. Normally, we would be among the first to criticize his shameless performance. However, it had the benefit of opening a slot for the Aggies in the Cotton Bowl.

By the way, Mr. Brown, to avoid pathetic pandering for votes next year, try beating Oklahoma for once. Just saying.

Oklahoma should be number one in both polls after the impressive beatdown they gave Colorado. Granted, the Big XII North was pretty weak this year, but any of those teams* could have gone 10 - 1 in the pathetic PAC 10 or the hopelessly hamstrung Big East. The winner of the Big East and the PAC 10 should fight it out in the Toilet Bowl, as neither conference deserves an automatic BCS bid. The PAC 10 is so pathetic that both number 1 USC and number 4 California barely beat unranked teams in their final games, while Oklahoma destroyed Colorado.

Give me a fucking break, USC in no way, shape, or form deserves to play for the national championship. Oklahoma and Auburn** should be playing in the Orange Bowl*** for the national championship.

By the way, the douchebags at AP might want to rethink voting Gary Barnett as Big XII coach of the year. Ever heard of a guy named Bob Stoops? Or Mack Brown? Or Dennis Franchione? Wankers.

notes:

* Except for Nebraska, which was saddled with Bill Callahan, the worst coach ever.
** Full disclosure: I hate Auburn. In fact, I think the entire state of Alabama should be bulldozed into the Gulf of Mexico so that Atlanta could have a beach within reasonable driving distance. The trailer mobile home park residents that make up the population of the state could easily be relocated to an appropriate state, such as Oklahoma. Since their homes are mobile and all.
*** Until FedEx starts showing us some love, and by love we mean assloads of cold hard cash, we will be referring to it as the Orange Bowl here on Prizzo Skeezy.

double standard

Oh shit, the motherfucking apocalypse is upon us now. Apparently, the recent Yoplait® commercial has drawn the ire of short men across America.

At first, I thought this was just another pathetic example of the culture of victimization spinning out of control. On further reflection, I find it fucking ridiculous that vertically challenged persons are discriminated against in today’s enlightened society. We trip over ourselves to ensure that the civil rights of crazy religious fanatics, who are actively trying to kill us all, are not violated, yet short people are mocked on national television. It is an outrage that vertically challenged persons are disparaged in this way. Propeller Skies fully supports a boycott of General Mills until they remedy the situation.

Smoove D thanks Jason at Completing the Square for posting this and giving me something to blog about steal. Now go read his shit, since it is fucking funny.

Sunday afternoon, I took a walk to Starbucks® to purchase some coffee. Of course, I prefer Aurora coffee, but Starbucks® has two overwhelming advantages. [1] Because they have roughly 27 locations within a mile of my apartment, I can walk there, and [2] they accept major credit cards, thus allowing me to skip a trip to the ATM. J. Mack Robinson joined me on this trip and we took the scenic route, since he was shooting material for a photo tour of Atlantic Station.
