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.

It was somewhat surreal to be interviewing the star of the Big Ten Blogosphere, the blog known as the
Eleven Warriors: http://www.elevenwarriors.com
, but it was thrice the strangeness like that of a typical dark gray Ohio morning sky, when the refreshing crisp air clears a port-a-potty when I opened up my email with the deft answers to my challenging interview questions.

I pictured in my mind’s eye a sweater-vested giant (above)  steepling his fingers and dipping his brow, giving me a sign that I should begin.  Being an SEC blog, I intuitively knew that I should slow the pace so they could keep up with our speed.

LWS: If you could go back in time and slap just one person, who would it be?  Charlie Bauman, Perhaps?
Martin S. Conner.

LWS: If you could fall out of any building, which one would it be?

Vietnam’s famous, new age gingerbread house.

LWS: Along those lines, if you were a cartoon character on Scooby-Doo, which one would, you be?

We, would be, Vincent Van Ghoul, voiced by the amaranthine Vincent Price.

LWS: What’s the smallest thing you’ve ever stolen?

Your heart.


LWS: Jim Tressel has often been criticized for his coaching in the BCS games versus SEC teams.. But shouldn’t he get more credit for being a shitty coach in the first 10 games of the season?

The Budweiser, not you, you vainglorious fille de joie.

LWS: In a perfect world, what time would your Kick-off start?

Post-Matlock, pre-Wheel of Fortune.

LWS: When was the last time you were stranded somewhere and for how long?

In the intellectual infinite abyss where a team coming off losses to both South Carolina and Vanderbilt at home garners any legitimate pre-season Top 10 consideration.

LWS: What College Coach has had the greatest influence on you?

James Caan.

LWS: How much of an improvement is Rich Rod over Lloyd Carr? Is it sort like moving from a Tuscaloosa to a shantytown?

What exactly is Tuscaloosa? Is that closer to Loretta Lynn’s ranch or the place they shot Steel Magnolias?

LWS: If you could take just one thing with you to be stuck on a deserted island, what would it be?

A hollowed out copy of the Physician’s Desk containing water proof matches and flares.

LWS: What do you think of these interview questions?

Boxers.

LWS: Boxers or briefs?
RIOT MASKS OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG.

LWS: Go ahead:  Pick the buckeyes record “game by game”

12-1, with the loss being to John Calipari’s SEC Champion Kentucky Wildcats.


LWS: Bonus:  You know that I type at SEC Speed.  How fast do you type?

Whatever Knowshown Moreno’s combine 40 time was + the margin of the number of Big Ten alumni Pro Bowlers – the number of SEC alumni Pro Bowlers. That many words per minute.
