Tim Tebow Injury Update: No News is Good News
College Football, Tim Tebow September 29th. 2009, 3:00pm
Urban Meyer, perhaps attempting to mess with the heads of the LSU coaching staff and players, thinks Tim Tebow will be healthy and ready for Gators-Tigers on Oct. 10. “Meyer said Tebow has a slight headache and some soreness, but there are no injuries to his neck or spine. He said he does not know the grade of Tebow’s concussion. Meyer spent the night with Tebow and his parents in the hospital Saturday night. Meyer said Tebow was his normal self.” We’re surprised there aren’t reporters outside of Tebow’s place, waiting for him to get the mail to pepper him with questions. And because you knew this was coming: Blaming the BCS for Tebow’s injury. [Gainesville Sun]

I don’t think LSU gives a shit about Jesue Tebow when they have a tough road game in 5 days, but I could definitely buy Meyer staying up at night with the assumption that LSU is game planning for Florida.
fixed for accuracy

is clown banned or did he make some kind of bet that hes not allowed to comment for a certain time?

Yes, ND has let us all down.

mrejr, did you stop running after you got out? eh, did you ever run on a regular basis since you were reservist? (i know a guy that got out and joined the reserves and hes gotten fat as fuck and doesnt have to run a pt test..dont mean anything negative by asking you) anyway..its hard as fuck to get back into running shape like i was in the marines. god help me.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:08 pm
Meyer slept in the hospital? geez
September 29th, 2009 at 3:09 pm
That BCS article is now challenging the Florio post from earlier today for most misguided piece in blogging this year. What the fuck is wrong with that guy?
Yes, the BCS sucks. NO, it is NOT the reason Tim Tebow has a freak concussion where his teammate just so happened to have his knee right behind Tim’s head as he took a pretty good lick.
Jesus Christ Gator fans. Calm the fuck down. EVERYONE deals with injuries. I didn’t blame the BCS when Jewel Hampton went down preseason or when swine flu invaded my team.

he wants tebow’s cherry.

His normal self = TT healed the sick, turned water into wine, fed 5000 men and their families, was photographed with numerous big-breasted women…

Is that where Clown went this month?
September 29th, 2009 at 3:14 pm
yeah but i have always hated running long distances. and i dont know what unit your buddy joined but we always had to run. thats what i hated about the reserves though. because staying in shape is all on you you dont wake up every morning and have your unit there to make you run or go workout. you have your at home friends telling you to go out and get fucked up all the time.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:15 pm
Hampton = Tebow?
September 29th, 2009 at 3:17 pm
it might be because hes NBC. spent his whole time in kuwait. theres an army reserve unit somewhere around here. im not sure what it is. hes never taken a pt test or had to maintain a weight. its pretty sad IMO. he says they are a non deployable unit. whats the point of having a unit then?!?!?!
September 29th, 2009 at 3:19 pm
will you accept “i didn’t blame the BCS when beanie wells went down last season or when jim tressel’s spincter tightened up…actually that last one is the BCS’s fault…but nevermind that…did i blame them then? hmm?”
September 29th, 2009 at 3:20 pm
Tebow’s injury has nothing to do with the BCS…there is no possible way for Florida to finish undefeated and not make the national championship game (and even with 1 loss they probably get in unless said loss was in the SEC championship game). If you want to blame something other than Meyer, blame the Heisman race. That is the only reason he was still in the game, period.

here’s the story that touched off the political discussion last night

September 29th, 2009 at 3:21 pm
GotG – You’re missing the point. But in terms of importance to my team, Hampton was pretty damn important. It took us from serious Big Ten title contenders and the BCS to a team that “has a shot”.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:21 pm
naw thats his unit commander being a lazy fuck. a nondeployable unit could mean that they dont have the numbers(not enough people) or a other things. there are other rthings i hated about the reserves that i wont get into here but that was one of them
September 29th, 2009 at 3:22 pm
ahhh i see
September 29th, 2009 at 3:23 pm
don’t be silly…iowa still doesn’t have a shot.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:23 pm
I actually got what you were saying. I was just taking a random shot at Iowa for absolutely no reason.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:24 pm
Im ready for a secret CIA mission to end all of this.

TBL, I think what touched off the political discussion last night was less this, and more your assertion that the way to prevent guys from putting bombs up their asses was to nuke the Middle East.
Myself and a few others took umbrage with that short-sighted statement.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:26 pm
forget being a secret service agent … find out how to detect bombs shoved up these guys butts. right now, there’s no way to detect it.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:26 pm
When you stop beating up on Navy and Illinois at home, let me know. We’re at the 1st intermission of the college football season. We’re pitching a shutout. Our goalie is had a great first period.

yes there is. It is called digital investigation.

You know, except a simple xray machine.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:28 pm

Wow… Charles is actually in shape in that photo.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:30 pm
at every airport? How fast can we roll this out … by thanksgiving? It’s only one of the major travel holidays of the year …
if everyone has to go through an xray machine, should we tack an hour on to everyone’s travel experience? get there 3 hrs early for intl, 2 hrs for domestic?
September 29th, 2009 at 3:30 pm

Finally, I think we may have found a topic to stoke Barney Frank’s interest in counterterrorism!
September 29th, 2009 at 3:31 pm
Sounds like something Ann Coulter would say.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:31 pm
the paradigm shifts didn’t mention my mother wasn’t allowed to bring a bottle of lotion on a plane, so she had to hide it in my pocket.
people must really value their belief system if they can shove a bomb up their ass and then go assassinate someone. if you look at the killers in our country, they usually snipe at a distance (jfk, abortion doctors, etc.)
September 29th, 2009 at 3:32 pm
uh…i think we’re done with navy and illinois.
wanna make a bet on the OSU iowa game?
September 29th, 2009 at 3:33 pm
i think the only way to find bombs up guys butts is by using some good ol’ fashion racism and profilin…you look like you have a bomb up your ass you get strip searched .
September 29th, 2009 at 3:34 pm
TBL, are you really that scared of getting iced by a guy with a bomb up his ass? There’s simply not enough room in there for a guy to have a big enough explosive without his colon getting perforated. Besides, do you know how easy it is to penetrate airline security if you really want to? Please, PLEASE stop fearmongering, you sound like Dick Cheney.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:35 pm
digital penetration > digital investigation Bo
I was being PC. JPQ can still do it, though.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:36 pm
@Spence – Yeah. I’ll probably do it. I will, of course, want the points though. I totally concede you have more talent. No question about it. Pryor is the X factor and the Iowa defense is good.
We’ll figure something out as the day approaches. I wanna beat Ark St. and Mich first.
@mrejr – If it hit the pipe or catches enough of the pad and doesn’t cross that red line, it doesn’t count.

this coming from a guy who has a lot of experience with people sticking stuff up his ass so we should listen
September 29th, 2009 at 3:36 pm
So, TBL After Dark consists of a lot of talk about jihadis rectally arming themselves?
/not judging

Exactly. The link that TBL provided even says that the dude was the in the same room as the guy he was trying to assassinate, set off his bomb, and succeeding only in blowing his own body to shred’s and causing dismayed surprised to his target.
I don’t think butt bombs are something we need to worry that much about.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:38 pm
Im all for this now. Its wrong but we have no choice.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:39 pm
Usually something involving the colon. Last week, there was an extensive butt sex discussion. The heterosexual kind.

domestic flights might be easy, but the last time i went to jfk (intl flights) i saw army men with assault riffles and dogs. also, i am sure they have psychological profilers that are in the crowd and in security room watching surveillance of people that are acting shady.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:40 pm

September 29th, 2009 at 3:41 pm
i’ll have to think about it then…taking OSU when they’re giving points is always a losing propsition.

3-1 against spread this season. 6-6 last year. 11-1 two years ago.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:50 pm
against decent teams, i should’ve added.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:53 pm
Dude, that’s the second gay joke in 24 hours…what’s up?
Also, I do work at a GI clinic, so I have seen pictures of massive colon perforations…not pretty, and very deadly. That knowledge, along the knowledge that most, if not all terrorist have little access to high density explosives leads me to conclude that if I do die in a terrorist attack, it won’t be because of someone kiestering an ied.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:55 pm
A guy is gonna try that shit and just blow his sphincter up.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:57 pm
nothing dude. just joshing you
September 29th, 2009 at 3:58 pm
I don’t understand how someone could go through life in the U.S. constantly afraid of a terrorist attack. That was the brilliant (for lack of a better word) aspect of Al Qaeda’s hit on 9-11. It put us in a panic and that panic is still alive 8 years after it happened. The chances of someone living in the U.S. dying due to a terrorist attack are so low it is comical when people worry about it. Let the CIA et. al., deal with the worrying. It’s their job.
September 29th, 2009 at 3:59 pm
Ding! Ding! Ding! You, sir, have won the TBL Sentence of the Day Award!
September 29th, 2009 at 3:59 pm
Thank you, Tallguy. We needed a voice of reason on what can and can’t kill me if a bomb was shoved up someone’s ass.
/Serious. This was getting absurd.
//Perforated Colon was the name of a band I was in back in college.
September 29th, 2009 at 4:08 pm
tallguy – the guy with the bomb up his rear is in a plane … what happens? now, think like those idiots think – get 5 of them on a plane …
September 29th, 2009 at 4:10 pm

More like Kurt Russell from Executive Decision.
September 29th, 2009 at 4:17 pm
Then they blow the plane up. Before they can use it as a weapon to kill thousands. A couple hundred people die. Yeah, that’s bad, but it’s hardly the armageddon you’re making it out to be.
September 29th, 2009 at 4:18 pm
and you get 5 small explosions that cause slight turbulence…if he can’t even injure a man within 5 feet of him, you can be assured that it’s not going to pierce the bulkhead of a normal airplane.
As GotG said, no rational US citizen should be scared of terrorism, it’s just not a likely fate. Dying by ass bomb isn’t even worth considering.
September 29th, 2009 at 4:19 pm
I’ve been flying a fair amount recently and just went through one of the fancy super x-rays, took 10 seconds. I haven’t waited more that 10 minutes in a security line in a looooong time.
September 29th, 2009 at 4:20 pm
