Gradulations, You Made The Front Page!

PrintBecause nobody demanded it, we're going to try a new feature rounding up your contributions to Black Shoe Diaries in the fanposts and fanshots. Feel free to come up with a good name for it, I'm dead above the neck this morning.
Pete the Streak flags an item about our mid-90's cheerleading squad, which can essentially be described as, "you've got spirit, YES YOU DO."
whiteoutonly notices another victim of the BSD April Fools' joke (full confession, when I saw it pre-coffee, my heart also sank. But I'm a sucker that will fall for anything. Seriously.)
And speaking of April Fools', Brett Brown catches a good one. Best two coaches in the Big Ten? Kirk Ferentz and Rich Rodriguez, according to Tom Dienhart.
Mr. Rosewater has fun with the transitive property of basketball.
InScoresOfOtherGames suggests A.J. Wallace to offense.
JGuiher says it's official -- Troy Sunderland is out as PSU wrestling coach.
rmcmillen50 beats us to the punch, and notices that Jay Paterno is on Twitter. Further proof that we're a society more interested in broadcasting our lives than living them?
"Official White Out Shirt"? baronlion should know better. White Out shirts should only be purchased through Black Shoe Shirts and Pants. Less corporate logos for you to wear, and more money for us to buy Funyuns.
Finally, gradulations to Reading Rambler.

due to the need to cleanse THAT image from my brain forever. Off to get the pink, wait, the orange glo soap to eliminate the image from my brain.
Ben and Alex... first commits for 2024
I can't even figure out what is most troubling about the picture.
The tattoo? The skullet? The dainty tote bag?

It's the skin tight jorts
and complete lack of irony.
"I honestly think the "Spread HD" is going to work pretty well, and we’ll be just fine this year". - 8-27-2008
I wonder what that is in his left back pocket
Pack of cigarettes, garbage patch kids cards, English-Chinese dictionary? We will never know.
This is our most desperate hour. Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi; you're my only hope.
I agree- this dude has so many things
going on, it is hard to focus.
If I had to pick one it would be the arm tattoo – pic of Tebow?? and T-bone is just killing me.
This freak can shave his head, leave the chic bag at home, maybe even be convinced to wear a pair of non-denim shorts, but the ink will be with him always (well, unless he undergoes a surgical procedure or more likely takes a sander to it).
"You are a tenacious little monkey!"
I think that's a 2-way radio
Little big to be a Cellphone, but if it is, it would only add to the mystique of this picture

I've got money
on that it’s a Nascar radio scanner…
"...You know, Reemer, someday I'm gonna own a big sports bar."
For me
It’s the fact that this man actually paid actual money to tattoo Tim Tebow on his arm, something that he will either have for the rest of his life, or at least until his BAC drops back to below 0.26 from the moonshine he distilled behind his trailer, and realizes that he actually tattooed Tebow’s face and the word “T-bone” on his arm. Let’s all just hope this man cannot pass DNA onto a new generation.
Ummm, Funyuns.
And I also fell hard for the april-1 post. Gradulations to Mike for fooling, from what I can tell, all of the internets.

White Out Shirts 2009
I do like the new White Out Tshirts. Was it student designed again like last year’s?
That Dienhart article gets funnier everytime I read it.
Zook answered the critics who say he can’t coach by leading the Fighting Illini to the Rose Bowl after the 2007 season. Zook is an unmatched recruiter who has built a strong staff, leading to a renaissance in facilities and attitudes in Champaign. Energy, enthusiasm and an ability to connect with players fuel Zook’s success.
There are rumblings about how Wisconsin’s record has gotten worse each season under Bielema, dropping from 12-1 to 9-4 to 7-6. Give the intense Bielema credit for altering his offseason approach, looking to connect better with the players and enhance their development. More than anything, Bielema needs a quarterback to emerge during this critical season in his career. Don’t bet against the smart, hard-working Bielema getting the Badgers back on track.
I mean, this stuff is just gold.
Have a "great HD day!" - Jay Paterno
Did they mention Zook’s waterskiing and/or ability to piss excellence?

I am going to the UF spring game next week,

RUTS- how about just naming the feature “The Voice of the Masses”- or, if you want the RATM reference, “The Voice of the Voiceless”.
Also, could go with something like “Community Chest” or “The BSD Potluck Post”.
…I need coffee.

if we go with "Community Chest"
can we pursuade one of the BSDivas to ahem model one of the BSD shirts for the accompanying picture?

Your BSDivas…sound hot.

How's...
" The Big Black Shoe" sound…using your idea of the chest/or pot-luck; which in either sense or “visual”…you are pulling…“stuff”… out of…so why not the shoe…it’s all parallel…

By the way, I like "Gradulations" being in there
though I suppose that joke will die out eventually…or will it?
Unverified Voracity on mgoblog is still going strong.
What's up w/ his denim wetsuit...classic!
Keep this pic in the archive…we’ll surely use it later in the season!!
It's not a purse; it's European.
Is this pic legit? It’s really too scary to be true. I’m hoping this is a genius photoshop work.
"The sea was angry that day, my friends." G. Costanza
i'm still convinced
it’s a ‘shop. The tatoo and logo on the bag look too ’well-placed’ for that photo. coincidence is possible, but look how low on his arm the tebow tat is, and how clear you can see it and the UF logo on the bag….
definately a real photo or one of the best ‘shops I’ve seen
"We hugged as grown men do. It was a great moment. Then, it was business as usual." -- LJ Sr.
I'm calling 'shop
And my tell is the skin tone of the “Tebow tattoo” and T-Bone’s actual skintone. It seems to me that it is just a picture of Tebow slapped on T-Bone’s arm. (I know, I can’t believe I looked that closely either)
But nonetheless, I very much enjoy stereotypes and that is a UF fan if I’ve ever seen one.

Look at his hair, anyone who would go out in public like that
Is certain to have a T bone tattoo somewhere on his body, we are taking DEEP south here.

Alright
enough jokes about the south already…there are just as many bass ackward people in Pennsylvania, New York, and WV.

by psu on Apr 8, 2009 2:36 PM EDT up reply actions
Yeah, looks 'shopped
Look underneath the Gator on the bag. It’s blurred more than the rest of the surface area.
by Mr. Rosewater on Apr 8, 2009 3:12 PM EDT up reply actions
I agree
But you know there’s some redneck with that exact tattoo, somewhere, so we can pretend it’s real
Further proof that we’re a society more interested in broadcasting our lives than living them?
I love that statement

Hmmm...
pork-based transportation
Were you referring to the bacon road, or that amazingly fit penguins goaltender’s motivation to walk to Denny’s?

not for the chick, of course
but because of the 3 ham sandwiches, 4 chicken cosmos, and roast turkey that are hidden in the sheets

…the streets are paved with chocolate-covered bacon, which apparently is sold with regularity here in South Central PA.
