Review of “Bama Profiles in Courage: Laykin”: (Capers) Barr flexes through an emotional range that most writers would never dare attempt … Humor and Bama sorrow are fused together like twined tree trunks that keep each other standing…..It’s part satire, part character study, with a wry lens on fame, fandom, and the modern South. Well done, Capers, well done.”– Ian Allen, The Times Literary Supplement.

Love SI’s John Ed Bradley, definitely a man’s man.  A helluva of a man.  It is tough to have a set of huevos in this homoerotic tebow era.  John Ed’s balls swing low. Oh John Ed?  Tebow wants you to call.

Read it and weep jealous rival schools.  Cause  Jon Crompton waits in the shadows, like a Mountain Painter,  waiting for his moment to shine.  SI, go ahead and interview #8, the new Heisman Winner.  Comment if you dare.

Lane flew back to Tennessee less than 48 hours after his son was born. He’d arranged to have someone fetch him at the airport, but the driver was 25 minutes late. “I came back and within five minutes I’d fired the guy who was in charge of the guy who’d been sent to pick me up,” says Kiffin. “Here’s the point: We need to win. That’s 25 minutes that Nick Saban and Urban Meyer had that I lost because somebody was late picking me up at the airport.”

  1. Kiffin is a snake oil salesman. He is smart enough to know what gets the UT goobs excited, too dumb to realize he is out of his depth. Petrino in the ATL is going to look like a success in comparison.

  2. I read the article. You will rarely find a ‘friendly” media piece that shows as many gaping holes in the subject.

    Kiffin is destined for defeat on a Gerry Faust-like scale in Knoxville.

  3. Notice how Queefs made a point of bragging about firing that guy to the reporter? Firing this low-ranking nobody who was supposed to get him “picked up at the airport on time?”

    What a total waste of carbon Queefer is. . . .

    Memo to Boy Blunder; 25 minutes won’t make any difference with Meyer and Saban. In YOUR case 25 years won’t. If you had any real accomplishments or ability, 25 years would.

    But you’re just a boy.

  4. “Crompton”? “Heisman”? That bozo, who throws a football like a circumcised warthog in boxing gloves, being mentioned in the same breath with that Sainted Award is the grossest kind of sacrilege.

    Somebody, Mike Hamilton I suppose, has got to get a choke chain on that piss ant puppy.

    His actions as head coach at Tennessee compare favorably to those of Obama as President of the United States; Terminally clueless.

  11. Can’t the guy coach a season before people doom him to captain the SS Failboat?

  12. 25 minutes is the all the amount of time that the vols will be ahead of an SEC team in 2009.

    Suck it, Jai

  13. An article about Kiffin not written by that Florida tool Greg Doyle. How refreshing.

    I am scared shitless.

    Hold me, Jeremy.

  16. To bad he lied about firing the guy. Hamilton came out and said he was full of it. This has been an awesome week for junior. I wonder what those recruits are thinking now? This is the T town twilight zone.

  18. Lame has now been called out about yet another lame sad lie: according to UT AD Hamilton, Lame can’t fire anyone:

    God you guys must be proud . . . .

    I am speechless . . .calling Queefin a “cunt” just doesn’t cut it . . .it isn’t low enough . . . .he is beneath the insult radar . . . .
