DISQUS

VTBobb · 9 months ago

OK, What On the Field rule changes would you like to see in College Football?

I'm thinking:

PASS INTERFERENCE - Spot Foul
Institute a 5 YD "PAULY SHORE ACTING FOUL" when a kicker gets caught pretending he got hit.

Okay, I think I can speak for all of Auburn on this one, but we really think they should lower the penalty on chop blocks...

Kevin @ Fanblogs · 9 months ago

lol

Ben Prather · 9 months ago

As in make lower chop blocks ok?

1Tomcat · 9 months ago

I agree- LOL Less pass interference calls and more offensive holding calls
BTW what the F is head to head? We were taught to use our heads its a fundamental part of the game.-shoot It seems to me like- you can't stop in mid air- some late hits on QB's are unavoidable and some are downright dirty-see Texas A&M for examples

Overtime needs to move the starting point back to the 50 yard line. Either that or decide the winner with a coin flip...

...and the "PAULY SHORE" foul is reviewable

Dang, I have been here for about four years.

War_Eagle_Atlanta · 9 months ago

2.5 years for me...

Where ya been, Kev? You have no idea how many people actually thought that was a tumbleweed in YOUR back yard in the last open thread...

I'm sure you saw where Giannii dropped in last week. Maybe we'll get some polls here soon?

Kevin @ Fanblogs · 9 months ago

I wish I could say I was out on the island for the last month, but... no such luck.

If they can get the polls working, more power to them. I'm working on a new backend for the site, so we could have polls running with or without Disqus by the start of the season.

Welp, I'm still here.

(OK, "yawl"; don't everybody whoop it up at once.)

Given types of plays that currently wind up under review, I think some questionable penalties, especially "running into the kicker", should automatically be reviewed. JMHO...

My first year here was 2003...and we won a national title...I found this place again last year, prior to the 2007 season...and we won a national championship...

What's with the Stupid Pet Tricks Thread from this past week? Sheesh, guys...

WarEagleFan · 9 months ago

Does that mean that you are leaving and coming back just so LSU can win the beg one?????

TigerEducated · 9 months ago

I'm sorry, but did you say, "...the beg one?????"

I don't speak Allbarnics...Can you decipher that for me?

:)

WarEagleFan · 9 months ago

Even though that was a typo. One could extrapolate that I was refering to the way Miles got them onto the last beg( BIG ) one

Zac · 9 months ago

"the way Miles got them onto the last beg( BIG ) one"

I like it, WEF.

Kevin, DISQUS rocks, man...Totally rocks...

I might have to tone down the act around here, though...My real name's on my Facebook page, and its linked to Twitter as well...

You know you can change status on Twitter from GMail with some application via Facebook, huh?

I haven't slowed down to try it, but I hear its possible...

Kevin @ Fanblogs · 9 months ago

You don't **HAVE** to link your accounts, TE, but you *can*. If you wanna stay under the radar, don't link 'em. :)

Since it has been brought up, this next season will be my 4th. The first I didn't comment much at all, and just read the posts and lurked a bit. My addiction hadn't set in at all until the 2nd season when I commented under a few different handles. Then after much discussion about the meaning of my most frequently used handle, I decided to settle with the current, less offensive one. The addiction was in full bloom at that point. I'm really not too sure what I'd do without fanblogs. The season and the offseason are so much better with the ability to converse, discuss, and debate the many topics nationwide that happen to come up relating to our much beloved sport. Just to think, the only things I had to look forward to in the past between the National Championship game and kickoff next season were signing day, the draft, and the spring game. Now my school actually has a good basketball team to fill the void as well, but that just isn't enough on its own.

For those of you who are on Facebook... you can now become a "fan" of Fanblogs.

Some Tennessee, Georgia, Auburn and Alabama fans decided that black-and-white school colors were a bit too dull. So they called upon God to give them colors that would truly represent them.

First, the Tennessee fans stepped before God and asked for their school's colors.
God said "When I see Tennessee, I see a great big orange sun coming up over beautiful white clouds. "Tennessee will be orange and white".

Next, the Georgia fans stood before God and asked for their school colors.
God said, "I see a field of fertile black soil...from which will grow a beautiful field of red roses. Georgia will be black and red."

The Auburn fans were next. God said "When I think of Auburn, I see a glorious sky of blue with the bright orange sun shining down on my favorite town. Your colors are orange and blue."

God then turned to the Alabama fans and said quite hastily, "Your colors are crimson and white."

Later, after the fans had left, St. Peter came to God and said, "Lord, as you handed out each fan's colors, you explained their origin-all but the Alabama fans. I'm curious. Why crimson and white? What do you see when you think of Alabama?"

"I see the same thing you see," God said, "white trash and red necks".

This is off topic, but it's hilarious and I thought I'd share since it's the offseason.

Fat guys kick ass.

I myself am not fat, but now I'm considering converting.
