See you at DragonCon.

Methinks those plans for world domination have been put on hold.

Meanwhile, Dawg fans, pour yourself a glass of Tech’s salty tears and kick back with this:

    I love this quote from the WWL’s website recap:

    “Ferentz misspoke in the postgame news conference when he referred to Tech as “Wake Forest,’

    Observing Tech football and fandom is pure comedy, yesterday I browsed stingtalk for a few minutes and some guy had a babe in a bikini as his post picture, another Techie asked who the babe was and the guy said it was his wife, someone called BS, and then he said it was an ex-girlfriend. Sometimes I almost pity the bastards…almost.

    I have been friends for five years with the girl married to the blonde guy (“rapper?”) in this video.

    1. Yes, one of the guys in this video found a beautiful woman to marry him. Not sure how that happened. She did not go to tech, of course.

    2. One month ago when I discovered these unofficial nerd rap mascots (I’m not sure how I missed them with all their videos for so long), I called her and told her I’ve never been more ashamed to be her friend.

    I had just about forgiven her for marrying a techie, and then I find out she married this one? Ridiculous.

    wahhhhhhhhhh!!!!

    strangely familiar: tough, quiet Nesbitt throws timely picks, Dwyer has meaningless yards, and really weird, Bay Bay drops the big one. Again.

    One thing about Johnson, the look on his face as he is losing is priceless.

      He’s also doing an admirable job of stepping into Fulmer’s role as the rival coach that never, ever credits the other team when his squad loses.

    What’s even more familiar: Other Team gets more than a week to study the offense; Genius has no new updates for it because, well, it’s unstoppable and perfect as it is, so why he need any surprises; Other Team shuts down Perfect Offense for at least a half and wins the game easily.

      I love how Dick Stockton remarked last night during the waning minutes of the game that 3 of the last 4 teams who beat Tech had a week or longer to prepare for them.

      I guess you have to make that distinction when you play on Thursday nights so often, because I thought every team got a week to prepare for a game.

    This is the first time I’ve seen “the GTGs” … and I definitely know the blonde guy. It’s been a while, though. Didn’t know he went to Tech. Sad.

    After watching the Perfect Option video, I’ve gotta go all 8th grade and say that’s just gay. I love how all the action footage is from practice, apparently preseason 2008. Of course it looks perfect, they’re playing against their own defense, which sucks more than this video.

    I’ll say this for the Paul Johnson era: it’s restored my hatred for the nerds. This morning I feel like I’ve just received a B-12 shot of Tech hate.

    Dwyer’s probably leaving this year, as he is a projected early round pick. What year is Nesbitt? Once he’s gone, that offense is in trouble. Nesbitt’s an awful passer, but he’s durable and runs the option pretty well. With that offensive line, the next QB better be Wolverine or he’s going to be in traction by October.

      If I remember correctly, the backup at Tech WAS in traction by October of this year. Broke his collar-bone or some such nonsense.

      Nesbitt’s a junior I think, so he’ll come back for another year of abuse.
      Dywer will likely be gone if he wants an NFL career at all (pending rookie salary cap + why take another year of abuse without getting paid for it?)

      Their only two talented D players (the overrated DE and Burnett) are gone too.

    The score is not a good reflection of how bad a beatdown this was. Iowa minimized their opportunities; what the hell Lawal thinking when he said GT was the better team? Thought you had to have some brainpower to get in, even at Tech.

    After watching Clayborn devour Nerds all night, I can’t imagine how other teams keep Juniors with that much pro potential. We seem to lose Juniors to agents at a higher rate than other programs, including those who are questionable high draft choices.

        I am sure you are right, just assumed everything was still all about football, it is certainly is for me. Tomorrow will be a sad day for me as CFB goes away for 7-8 months (any support for a spring league?)

    I have watched the Perfect Option since PJ was at GSU and this version is not even as good as GSU ran it. The last time GSU played UGA with this option package the QB, whose name I can’t remember handled the ball like Meadowlark Lemon, you were never sure who had the ball. Nesbit not so much. He fumbles if he is forced to make a decision. This Yech version would be weak if not for the cut blocking which is the hallmark of a PJ team. Iowa’s guys were playing off the cuts and making the plays. Announcers said that the Iowa DC had been at Michigan State when PJ was at Hawaii and had beat the snot out of Hawaii in some bowl game. He knew how to stop it and they did.

      At least the commercial embraces what it means to be Techie. This avoids any confusion about what you’ve signed up for.

      A friend of mine went to Tech and we gave him a lot of hell about it. Convinced all the nerd stories were bogus, he planned on going to school and drinking heavily, like any normal American kid.

      His first week in the dorms he popped his head into a room down the hall. A bunch of guys were watching a Japanese animated movie:
      -My Buddy: “Oh, that’s that Japanese cartoon stuff, I’ve heard of that”
      -Ubiquitous Techie: “This one shows boobs”

      At that moment, he realized his folly. Luckily, he flunked out of Tech fairly quickly.
