Coffee con Cream also deserves a rec

I still believe last years name of Lightly Toasted was one of the better names from a year ago.

Zug's team...We're going In...i guess no explanation is needed there.

 

SOA says "thanks for the votes"

As far as names

Restretch McGloin (as opposed to Stretch McGloin last year) but I got 20 bucks on the Cajun Connors Crew to win:
Mauti, Farrell, Pannell, and Zordich

NittanyWhiteOut.com. Arguably the second best Penn State blog I know of.

You should use that 20 bucks

To help them win, thus breaking even.

SOA is not amused that “You Three & Dupree” is not in the poll…

Seriously

Even though I already voted for Zug, Gerg, you need to add “You Three & Dupree” to the poll.

DO YOU HAVE PRIDE, DANNY?

Gerg is

I voted for "You Three & Dupree"

And I’m already casting my vote for next years clear winner: “Team Coxson Kuntz”

I think it is cool that the kickers have a team

but is it really a good idea?
I worry that there arms might rip off or something equally horrible.

“Are you kidding me?”

I, for one, think it would be awesome to have a double amputee punter.

by ReadingRambler on Jul 8, 2009 11:38 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

maybe a double amputee kicker

what do they need arms for…but a punter needs to handle the snap. Unless he was just going to dropkick the ball, in which case you’d need the best long snapper ever.

Eerht Maet

Makes me wonder if Nerraw McCormack’s dad was named Warren (see Garciaparra, Nomar). If so, this one should win by default.

Zug always wins

“We’re going in”

Kick. Ass.

That was my vote too

Don’t you just love it when your Hero doesn’t disappoint?

Any insight on how the

teams are chosen? Just friends pairing up, or do some of these guys analyze teams of yore for the mix of guys who’ve gone onto victory?

Is there any bragging rights for the victors or is this “just for a good cause”?

Has there ever been a competitor injured during the LFL and affected their season?

"is there any bragging rights for the victors or is this 'just for a good cause'?"

it is like you don’t know any competitive people, or what they are like

by The JuggerNitt on Jul 8, 2009 7:39 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I don't recall anyone

cracking out a homemade WWF belt in the past or proclaiming them the Masters of the Universe. I didn’t think it was that dumb of a question to be mocked.

oh, I'm sure they don't publically act like that

but c’mon, you know as soon as they get back to their apartments they’ll trash talk each other, and I’m sure there’s a lot of ribbing each other beforehand as well. Not saying they’re being jackasses about it, either, but I bet even in a competition between all priests and nuns there’s bound to be some bragging.

Also, I sincerely wasn’t trying to mock you, but tone of voice doesn’t carry over the internet.

by The JuggerNitt on Jul 9, 2009 11:34 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I want it done publicly...

I guess that was the crux of my question. Is there a trophy or something presented at the end of LFL to the winning team or is a giant check handed over to the Kidney Cancer Foundation? Why does it alway have to be about a good cause?

just found out the reason for "Rent Paid"

Evan and Josh live together and were late on their off campus rent one month and Joe kicked them off the team for 3 days.

funny.

wow

Tell that story the next time anyone claims Joe doesn’t run a tight ship anymore.
