Bullshit.

When your nickname is “Speedy”, you are doomed to failure

C’mon, nobody else is supposed to suck like Iowa’s basketball team. What happened?
Also, please let Colorado win. kthx

It annoys me that Bob Knight is a good announcer

I can beat you in the non-cute category too
Observe:

Go Here

What a sick turn this is for open threads.

TIME TO GO CRRRAAAZY

BSD needs a celebrity mascot. I propose:

Cause Taylor Mays has been so awesome this year.

Go to thy bed and warm thyself

I haven’t had any sports on for the last 20 minutes.

When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone,
When you’re sure you’ve had enough of this team, well hang on
Don’t let yourself go, ’cause everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes

Sometimes Coach Ed is wrong. Now it’s time to sing along
When your day is night alone, (hold on, hold on)
If you feel like letting go, (hold on)
When you think you’ve had too much of this team, well hang on

‘Cause everybody hurts. Take comfort in schadenfreude
Everybody hurts. Don’t throw your hand. Oh, no. Don’t throw your hand
If you feel like you’re alone, no, no, no, you are not alone

If you’re on your own in this sport, the days and nights are long,
When you think you’ve had too much of this team to hang on

Well, everybody hurts sometimes,
Everybody cries. And everybody hurts sometimes
And everybody hurts sometimes. So, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Everybody hurts. You are not alone

It’s true we must fire ED
For Curley is the nepotist extreme
We need more speed
We’re mediocre
Koolaid drinkers
Fire ED!

Bang bang

Bang bang

It’s true we must fire ED
We suck in a sucky conference
No good players
It’s ED’s fault
We must do it
Fire ED!

Bang bang
Bang bang

Bang bang
Bang bang
Feuer frei!

Bang bang
Bang bang

Bang bang
Bang bang
Fire ED!

He said I’ll love you ‘til I die
She told him you’ll forget in time
As the years went slowly by
She still preyed upon his mind

He kept her picture on his wall
Went half crazy now and then
He still loved her through it all
Hoping she’d come back again

Kept some letters by his bed
Dated 1962
He had underlined in red
Every single I love you

I went to see him just today
Oh but I didn’t see no tears
All dressed up to go away
First time I’d seen him smile in years

(Chorus)
He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they’ll carry him away
He stopped loving her today

(Spoken)
You know she came to see him one last time
Oh and we all wondered if she would
And it kept running through my mind
This time he’s over her for good

(Repeat Chorus)

Just because I ask a friend about her
Just because I spoke her name somewhere
Just because I rang her number by mistake today
She thinks I still care

Just because I haunt the same old places
Where the mem’ry of her lingers ev’rywhere
Just because I’m not the happy guy I used to be
She thinks I still care

But if she’s happy thinkin’ I still need her
Then let that silly notion bring her cheer
But how could she ever be so foolish
Oh where would she get such an idea

Just because I ask a friend about her
And just because I spoke her name somewhere
Just because I saw her then went all to pieces
She thinks I still care
She thinks I still care

He went bad with his child and wife Lord he leads a miserable life
But still he thinks the bottle is his right hand
Yes and he can tear down more than he’s ever built before
A man can be a drunk sometimes but a drunk can’t be a man

He lets his business led behind or the nightlife he can find
Why he does all this he’ll never understand
And in the morning when he wakes up Lord he can’t wait to fill his cup
A man can be a drunk sometimes but a drunk can’t be a man

For he goes from Doctor Jackill to Mr Hide
He seem proud to have the devil for his guide
Still he keeps on reaching out Lord he needs a helping hand
But a man can be a drunk sometimes but a drunk can’t be a man
Yes a man can be a drunk sometimes but a drunk can’t be a man

The bars are all closed
It?s four in the morning
Must have shut ‘em all down
By the shape that I’m in
I lay my head on the wheel
And the horn begins honking
The whole neighborhood knows
That I’m home drunk again

(Chorus:)
And if drinking don’t kill me
Her memory will
I can’t hold out much longer
The way that I feel
With the blood from my body
I could start my own still
And if drinking don’t kill me
Her memory will

These old bones they move slow
But so sure of their footsteps
As I trip on the floor
And lightly touch down
Lord it?s been ten bottles
Since I tried to forget her
But the memory still lingers
Lying here on the ground

(Repeat chorus)

Blame it all on my roots,
I showed up in boots,
And ruined your black tie affair.

The last one to know,
The last one to show,
I was the last one you tought you’d see there.

And I saw a surprise,
And the fear in his eyes,
When I took his glass of champange,

I toasted you,
Said honey we may be through,
But you’ll never hear me complain,

(Chorus)
‘Cause I got friends in low places,
Where the Whiskey drowns,
And the Beer chases my blues away,
But I’ll be okay,
Now I’m not big on social graces,
Think I’ll slip on down to the oasis,
Oh I got friends,
In low places.

I guess I was wrong I just don’t belong
but then I’ve been there before, everything’s alright
I’ll just say goodnight and I’ll show myself to the door
Hey I didn’t mean to cause a big scene just give me an
hour and then, I’ll be as high as that Ivory Tower and you’ll
never know,

Chorus

I guess I was wrong I just don’t belong
but then I’ve been there before, everythings alright
I’ll just say goodnight and I’ll show myself to the door
Hey I didn’t mean to cause a big scene just wait ‘til I finish this glass
Then, sweet little lady I’ll head back to the bar (haha) and you can kiss my ass

Chorus

You left your Bible on the dresser
So I put it in the drawer
‘Cause I can’t seem to talk to God without yelling anymore
And when I sit at your piano
I can almost hear those hymns
The keys are just collecting dust
But I can’t close the lid

You left my heart as empty
as a Monday morning church
It used to be so full of faith and now it only hurts
And I can heart the devil whisper
“Things are only getting worse”
You left my heart as empty
as a Monday morning church

The preacher came by Sunday
said he missed me at the service
He told me Jesus loves me
but I’m not sure I deserve it
’Cause the faithful man that you loved
is nowhere to be found
Since they took all that he believed
and laid it in the ground

Chorus

I still believe in Heaven
and I’m sure you’ve made it there
But as for me without your love, girl
I don’t have a prayer

Chorus

You left your Bible on the dresser
so I put it in the drawer

She put him out like the burnin’ end of a midnight cigarette
She broke his heart he spent his whole life tryin’ to forget
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind
Until the night

1st Chorus
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away her memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
We found him with his face down in the pillow
With a note that said I’ll love her till I die
And when we buried him beneath the willow
The angels sang a whiskey lullaby

lalalalalalala
lalalalalalala

lalalalalalala
lalalalalalala

The rumors flew but nobody know how much she blamed herself
For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind
Until the night

2nd Chorus
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away his memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
We found her with her face down in the pillow
Clinging to his picture for dear life
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby

lalalalalalala
lalalalalalala

lalalalalalala
lalalalalalala

Lord, I hope this day is good
I’m feelin’ empty and misunderstood
I should be thankful Lord, I know I should
But Lord, I hope this day is good

Lord, have you forgotten me
I’ve been prayin’ to you faithfully
I’m not sayin’ I’m a righteous man
But Lord, I hope you understand

I don’t need fortune and I don’t need fame
Send down the thunder Lord, send down the rain
But when you’re planning just how it will be
Plan a good day for me

You’ve been the king since the dawn of time
All that I’m asking is a little less crime
It might be hard fo the devil to do

Her parents never took the young girl to church
Never spoke of His name
Never read her His word
Two non-believers walking lost in this world
Took their baby with them
What a sad little girl

Her daddy drank all day and mommy did drugs
Never wanted to play
Or give kisses and hugs
She’d watch the TV and sit there on the couch
While her mom fell asleep
And her daddy went out

And the drinking and the fighting
just got worse every night
Behind their couch she’d be hiding
Oh what a sad little life
And like it always does, the bad just got worse
With every slap and every curse
Until her daddy in a drunk rage one night
Used a gun on her mom and then took his life

And some people from the city took the girl far away
To a new mom and a new dad
kisses and hugs everyday
Her first day of Sunday school the teacher walked in
And a small little girl
Stared at a picture of Him

She said I know that man up there on that cross
I don’t know His name
But I know He got off
Cause He was there in my old house
and held me close to His side
As I hid there behind our couch
The night that my parents died

By a lonely prison wall I heard a young girl callin’
Michael they have taken you away
For you stole Trevelyn’s corn
So the young might see the morn
Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay.
Low lie the fields of Athenry,
Where once we watched the small free bird fly
Our love was on the wing, we had dreams and songs to sing
It’s so lonely round the fields of Athenry.
By a lonely prison wall I heard a young man calling
Nothing matters, Mary, when you’re free
Against the famine and the Crown
I rebelled they brought me down
Now you must raise our child with dignity.
By a lonely harbour wall she watched the last star falling
As that prison ship sailed out against the sky
For she’ll live in hope and pray
For her love in Botany Bay
It’s so lonely round the fields of Athenry.

Way on past the boulevards
Out here underneath the stars
I’ve been flying past the houses, farms and fields
Leaving all I know back there
Rushing through the cold night air
And I’m holding on to nothin’ but the wheel

Staying clear of the interstate
I’m seeking out those old two lanes
Trying to explain the way I feel
Till all at once it’s half past three
And it’s down…to just the trucks and me
And I’m holding on to nothin’ but the wheel

I’ve been trying to drive you off my mind
Maybe that way baby I can leave it all behind
And forty-one goes on and on
And the lights go winding in the dawn
The sky’s the color now of polished steel
And the only thing I know for sure
Is if you don’t want me anymore
Then I’m holding on to nothin’ but the wheel

And the only thing I know for sure
Is if you don’t want me anymore
Then I’m holding on to nothin’ but the wheel

I’m holding on to nothin’ but the wheel

Carroll County’s pointed out as kind of square
The biggest thing that happens is the county fair
And I guess that’s why it seemed like such a big event
What we all call the Carroll County accident
The wreck was on the highway just inside the line
Walter Browning lost his life and for a time
It seemed that Mary Ellen Jones would surely die
But she lived long enough for her to testify

Now Walter Browning was a happy married man
And he wore a golden wedding ring upon his hand
But it was gone nobody knew just where it went
He’d lost it in the Carroll County accident

Mary Ellen testified he flagged her down
Said he was sick and could she drive him into town
And no one even doubted what she said was true
Cause she was well respected in the county too

Now I went down to see the wreck like all the rest
The bloody seats, the broken glass, the tangled mess
But I found something no one else had even seen
Behind the dash in Mary’s crumpled up machine

A little matchbox circled by a rubberband
And inside the ring from Walter Browning’s hand
And it took a while to figure out just what it meant
The truth about the Carroll County accident

By dark of night I dropped the ring into a well
And I took a sacred oath that I would never tell
The secret of the Carroll County accident
Cause the county ordered dad a marble monument

I lost him in the Carroll County accident
