Shut up already. “A lot of girls don’t know how to just listen. They’ll talk and talk…..
\Fixing Minka’s asinine statement about guys.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:13 PM
Couple things:
Who will catch for Tim Wakefield now?
That Kentucky legislature is laughable. Why do politicians waste time attempting to make laws for things that aren’t enforceable?
That teacher is cute.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:14 PM
Goddamnit, Minka, you know what gets me worked up!
March 14th, 2008 at 2:14 PM
Gang-banging the brackets? Are you going to shoot them full of holes or shoot them in their holes?
March 14th, 2008 at 2:15 PM
Gang-banging the brackets > bukakying the brackets
…I suppose.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:16 PM
Kate: Where in the FUCK is Jeeves with the car?
March 14th, 2008 at 2:17 PM
Kate: Why the fuck did I sign up to do Vacancy? Didn’t I know every Luke Wilson movie outside of Old School has bombed?
March 14th, 2008 at 2:17 PM
Another Florida teacher who is cute? I went to school in CA we had none of these.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:17 PM
Frankly no commentary on a message board is truly anonymous…if a crime is committed or felt to be committed things can be traced back to the computer it came from (I am not a technical geek and I understand there are ways of circumventing that) But for the most part, even with that poor girl who committed suicide, there is nothing that is said on any of these boards that is a crime unless they are confessing one or threatening a terrorist act
March 14th, 2008 at 2:18 PM
As much as we joke about the cute teacher-teenage student incidents, I think these teachers are really screwing the kids up. I mean, if you’re 15 and score with a cute 20-something just by getting detention, aren’t you just being set up for a lifetime of heartache and disappointment as an adult, when you actually have to try? It’s worse than child actors. Won’t somebody PLEASE think of the children?????
March 14th, 2008 at 2:18 PM
The best part of that Tampa Tribune article is they actually print her address. She’s already a sex offender (even though she’s only been charged), get your pitchforks ready folks.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:19 PM
-1 cbh49er, for actually reading the article. For shame.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:19 PM
i love PTA conferences, my wife is still trying to figure out why i dont mind attending them. Between the other soccer moms and the teachers, its like biscuit heaven
March 14th, 2008 at 2:20 PM
Brospeh, I was trying to figure out what Minka wanted in her strong men.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:21 PM
the Tampa teacher doesnt look that hot in this pic

March 14th, 2008 at 2:21 PM
maybe the worst champions league preview ever. i guess its champions league for dummies.
that teacher looks pretty cute despite it just being a head shot
March 14th, 2008 at 2:21 PM
Irish, My wife is an elementary school teacher…parties at the house can get some quality ass…and they are easy too…
March 14th, 2008 at 2:22 PM
March 14th, 2008 at 2:22 PM
Heaven forbid the FBI do something productive like, oh I don’t know, tracking down terrorists!
March 14th, 2008 at 2:23 PM
oh wow, take that back after irish’s pic
thanks for setting the record straight
March 14th, 2008 at 2:24 PM
@roman- i hope you invite your friends over to those parties
March 14th, 2008 at 2:26 PM
That female teacher with students list is fantastic…some talent on there, for sure. If I am a high school boy, I would consider it a lifetime achievement to have relations with a cute female teacher.
In middle school, not so much. I would be freaked out.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:27 PM
Alot of the teachers on that list look like shit.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:29 PM
Here come the TBL commenters making fun of girls they could NEVER touch in real life!!!! (Suzyn Waldman voice)
March 14th, 2008 at 2:32 PM
suzyn waldman…lemme buy you an appletini and see if we cant get you outta those pants.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:32 PM
Much as the idea of hooking up with a hot teacher (Deb Lafave is still the gold standard) seems like it would be a fantasy come true for a 15 year-old boy, I’m thinking I would have been finito inside of 30 seconds.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:33 PM
Why the F doesn’t Sirius have the Big Ten tournament on any of their channels but I can listen to the Akron/Western Michigan game tonight? I so do not want to be at work right now…
March 14th, 2008 at 2:35 PM
The412: Thirty seconds of love, or three hours of porn on cable? Add in the heavy petting with the teacher, and the package still can get you a half-hour of teenage heaven.
I take the 30 seconds (+heavy petting of 29:30) any day.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:36 PM
@Irish…friends are always welcome at my place…and sportsgal..Sirius doesn’t have them because XM does…they have the contract
March 14th, 2008 at 2:37 PM
@TBL- so what is the deal with the brackets? is there a TBL contest or something? details please…
March 14th, 2008 at 2:37 PM
where were all there whore teachers when i was in HS/MS
March 14th, 2008 at 2:37 PM
I’m out! I’m out of the contest!
March 14th, 2008 at 2:39 PM
Is a free commentor post for the winner tax-deductible? Will TBL send out a 1099?
March 14th, 2008 at 2:40 PM
Kate looks like her face has been stretched out 2 or 3 times.
Meh.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:41 PM
Agreed w. above, that CL preview was miserable.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:44 PM
sings: the woman across the street has nothing on. nothing on. nothing on.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:45 PM
Sterlin…it’s S-Corp. youre writing the post yourself so SECA rates apply. you can claim it as a Schedule E deduction tho if youre feeling saucy.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:46 PM
The Champions League preview was almost as good as the NCAA Tournament Committee preview where they said committie chair Tom O’Connor was the athletic director at VCU, when he is really the AD at George Mason.

I am shocked he didn’t make the team.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:49 PM
Noel Devine RB at West Virginia was arrested.

@ Gonzo
Without reading the caption, I thought that was a picture of the Lohan. I don’t know if that’s a compliment for Lohan or an insult to Beckinsale (who is usually more smoking).
March 14th, 2008 at 2:54 PM
totally random…i was always a fan of milla jovovich.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:55 PM
Any one going to be watching 6N this weekend ?
March 14th, 2008 at 2:56 PM
whats 6N?
March 14th, 2008 at 2:58 PM
You work in Tax spence? I love it when individuals ask me for tax advice, I get to tell them I have only done one indiv. return and it was mine (and there is nothing but a bit of cap inc. on it)
March 14th, 2008 at 2:58 PM
Broseph. you are right, at a quick glance, it looks like Lohan. Although I may be insulting Kate, her face kinda reminds me of silly putty.
March 14th, 2008 at 2:58 PM
6N = 6 nations rugby between england, france, ireland, wales and italy
March 14th, 2008 at 3:00 PM
Anybody following the OSU/MSU game?
March 14th, 2008 at 3:01 PM
Super, if I still lived in England I would. Dad played rugby, it’s a bad ass sport.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:01 PM
That’s an insult to Kate. LiLo couldn’t carry her diaphragm.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:02 PM
MSU 47
OSU 42
815 left in second half.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:02 PM
UT beat South Carolina by 2, USC had the last shot.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:04 PM
@ cbh49 did not want to follow suit and play as well ?
March 14th, 2008 at 3:05 PM
Sterlin…no, i do financial plan design for high net worth clients so i do investment analysis and asset management. about just as boring as being a tax guy, tho.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:06 PM
LETS GO BUCKS!!!!
March 14th, 2008 at 3:06 PM
I was in middle school when we lived there.
Although probably wouldn’t have played, I was short and skinny then, now tall and skinny, would probably get my ass beat.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:07 PM
investment analysis and asset management? I’ve never been less turned on. J/K Spence!
March 14th, 2008 at 3:07 PM
VA Tech is getting ready to knock out the U.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:08 PM
cbh…you lived in england? thats pretty sweet.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:08 PM
Listening to the OSU game online. Sounds like everytime OSU gets close, MSU answers right away. OSU really needs this one.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:08 PM
Ouch, shit on by sportsgal an hour or two before the weekend.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:08 PM
whats the score cbh? or is it just starting
March 14th, 2008 at 3:09 PM
Ahh – Im in tax, just not individual. Nothing like seeing a 8 figure tax expense check.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:09 PM
LiLo would be a million times more fun than Kate. I just gotta enter rehab in California when she is there. More like every other week. Sneak in a couple of 8 balls. and it’s back to her place placing my junk in her balloon knot and her tossing my salad.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:10 PM
are you kidding me? i could care less about getting shit on at this point. 21 minutes left after one piece of shit work week…
and i got some killer bud at home ready to get smoked.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:10 PM
Jamar Butler is such a sunt.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:10 PM
-1 Gonzo – Sorry, you can’t use “junk” twice in one day.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:12 PM
Sterlin…yea thats some crazy shit. big money is fucked.
some of the stuff i do is nuts. you see people with 5 $20 mil homes and over $50 million diversely invested. spending $500k per year on country club memberships…
i should probably stop there, i dont want to ignorantly cross any confidentiality things.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:12 PM
Looks like you and I have pretty much the same job spencer, although boring isn’t the adjective I’d use to describe it.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:13 PM
Cbh, places for everybody on the field, that is one of the great things about the sport. If the person had some skill there was a place.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:13 PM
thats priceless.
Captain Pants…no its not boring, but sometimes its too much to take and i flip out for like 20 seconds.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:13 PM
Spencer, you crack me up with your last comment. So true. My Dad was in the Marines, went to live with him when he got stationed over there. It was pretty sweet but I was too young to appreciate it. Skiing in Austria remains the coolest thing I have done in my life. We went to Amsterdam but I was too young to have any idea what I could have done there so I just ended up looking at tulips with my family.
Irish, Tech up 59-47 on the U with 215 left in the game.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:14 PM
Flipping out…now there’s something I can identify with
March 14th, 2008 at 3:16 PM
damn, thanks cbh
March 14th, 2008 at 3:16 PM
I was a groomsman a few years ago for a friend’s wedding. at the rehearsal dinner, the Groom gave this long speech to his wife, which was very touching. He then presented her with a Pearl Necklace. 3 of us groomsman were sitting in the back biting our lips, tears flowing out of our eyes, gripping each others hands trying so hard to not burst out and roll on the floor laughing. it was the funniest thing i’ve ever witnessed, yet I couldn’t laugh.
412, I hope that makes up for my minus 1.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:16 PM
cbh…thats a shame. still, living in europe is something youll recollect as being sweet, something different than cookie-cutter US.
you didnt smoke the tulips did you?
March 14th, 2008 at 3:21 PM
Good story, Gonzo. And no reference to your junk. +0.5
March 14th, 2008 at 3:26 PM
Just went and watched the end of the Ohio St. game in the lobby, I wonder if the bubble being so weak will be enough to get them in, now that they lost.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:27 PM
GAH…
RIP Bucks. enjoy the NIT.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:27 PM
@superjakrs: I’m planning on celebrating another Welsh Grand Slam by watching it on the big screens here in town.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:27 PM
Haha, I was completely innocent then, didn’t discover the finer things in life until college.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:28 PM
Spence – at least they lost to MSU and not a shitter like B.C.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:31 PM
Very optimistic to think that OSU can get in. Would need losses by Temple and St. Joe’s.
Does Va. Tech over Miami change anything? Any chance Va. Tech get in now?
March 14th, 2008 at 3:32 PM
Tuna, don’t think so, Tech has to beat UNC, they beat UNC they are definitely in. U is already a lock to get in.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:41 PM
Welsh have been pretty good year. English beat the french and then lose to Scotland..prett bad.
March 14th, 2008 at 3:42 PM
And my english skills suck today…as well as my typing.
March 14th, 2008 at 4:24 PM
i know you all don’t care, but AU 25 Colgate 24 with 30 seconds to go
