Jamarku$ McFiction Continues To Give In This Holiday Season
Posted by Scipio Tex on December 30th, 2008 under Football, Recruiting
Sadly, the the only part of the story of which I was legitimately proud – the Caligulan bisexual drug-raging alcohol-fueled Longhorn orgy – has been completely discredited by Chip Brown’s excellent work at Orangebloods. Chip Brown did first-rate work at DMN and it’s good to see his journalistic curiousity aroused while the mainstream press naps contentedly.
Romancin’: Horn style
McFiction had already mentioned that the cocaine-fueled Longhorn groupie mass fluid exchange may not quite have happened in the way Thayer Evans’ described in the anus-smuggled English paper that mysteriously made its way into Thayer’s douchebag-coiffed possession. Jamarkus concedes that he “may have embellished” and “spiced things up.” Apparently “embellished” is a clever East Texas euphemism for “pulled stuff out of my ass after my crazy-ass mama sold me” and the spice was a small-town special seasoning of aromatic bullshit.
But wait: there’s an additional tidbit of hilarity as is almost always the case when the words Oklahoma, football, and integrity are used in the same sentence (usually accompanied by the words gang rape, teammate shooting, federally investigated cocaine distribution ring). It appears that there’s a legitimate reason that Thayer Evans’ span of interest in college football is as narrow as an Oklahoma doublewide: Thayer Evans used to work for Sooners Illustrated.
Learning his craft at the knee of convicted felon and Sooner recruting guru James Hale was fine preparation for what the NYT has become.
Thanks JM – if not for you, I’d be writing a Rice-Central Michigan preview.

An already painful week turned excruciating for Carlo Ancelotti. After being dumped out of the Champions League midweek by former hero Jose Mourinho, Chelsea failed to rebound and dropped two valuable points at Blackburn. Manchester United edged Liverpool and now control the Premier League race.
A forlorn figure on the touchline, Carlo Ancelotti could

With Leach at the wheel I was expecting a 10 win minimum season with the guys this team has coming back in 2010. Now with Tubbs, Willis, and Brown running the show I’m in agreement it’s anywhere between 9-12 wins this year.
Very exciting to hear your take on the O-line ded, as

No problem.

I think your overall point is a good one. Barnes is a “system” guy especially defensively, which plays into how he overall plays the game.

Unfortunately, Chip no longer works at the Dallas Morning News. A story in the DMN would bring in a little more heft than a story written for a college football recruiting website, in this particular circumstance.

Just a horrible response by the Times.
Perhaps they only intended it to be a feature on McFarland.
However, when you dunk another school in muck, crib the subject’s English paper without perspective, and transcribe the comments of the person who appeared have the most impact on the decision, and do all of this apparently without asking any questions, you have not done your job.
