'Bama Bangs - a term coined by Travis to refer to southern men's hairstyles that feature prominent bangs for no apparent reason. Brodie Croyle and John Parker Wilson are oft-cited violators of 'Bama Bangs rules.

When Clay Travis, acclaimed author of Dixieland Delight, decided to spend the 2008 season up close and personal with UT football, he—and every other college football aficionado—thought he was in for a rollicking ride with one of the leading contenders for the national title. After all, when the Vols kicked off the season on September 1, the defending SEC East champions were ranked 18th in the country. As head coach Phillip Fulmer prepared for the game, he reflected upon a coaching career that included an astounding 147 victories, two SEC championships, and a national title. With 34 years at UT under his belt as both a player and coach, the Tennessee native had just signed a contract extension that projected to keep him at the university long enough to become the winningest coach in program history.

There is no college ball more passionate and competitive than football in the Southeastern Conference, where seven of the twelve schools boast stadiums bigger than any in the NFL and 6.5 million fans hit the road every year to hoot and holler their teams to victory.

The newly favored man is not really a man at all, but a hairless, effeminate, germ-fearing, non-meat-eating, exfoliating, wristband-wearing woman of the worst order. We as men are told that we must embrace the sacred feminine in ourselves, even if it doesn't actually exist, and become the very quintessence of woman, plus penises. This situation is untenable. This trend must stop.

Clay Travis is the only former student manager in the history of college athletics to marry an NFL cheerleader. He managed to pull this off despite an irrational affinity for the television shows Dawson's Creek and My Super Sweet 16. While being raised in Nashville, Tenn., Travis developed a healthy obsession with college sports and Alyssa Milano. As a teenager his greatest accomplishment was taking a doo-rag wearing Luke Duke (balling as Tom Wopat) to the hole at the Nashville YMCA.
In the midst of a stellar legal career during which he specialized in rewarding the unjust and punishing the oppressed, Travis began writing for CBS Sports's SPiN section in September 2005...

Travis, you are a douchebag. Don't hate UK because they are awesome. Why no UT version?? Oh, because no one would purchase an ugly ass ORANGE truck... except for maybe a garbage company... or mayby the state correctional department to haul the orange clad inmates.
"Mayby" we'll have one in ORANGE soon. Dare to dream. Dare to dream.
I believe that anonymous is actually Kentucky great Jarred Lorenzen.Jarred listen I understand your bitter(not everyone can be circumsised by futuristic Tim Tebow before he was even born. but dont worry I have a feeling this circumsision is what got you your qb job, see the matric neo/the agent )
I hope you are first in line for the orange version... so your ride can match your "illustrious" career... HORRIBLE.
Sigh, this is one reason I wasn't sure whether to allow anonymous posts. But I figured we'd get posters like this. Which are kind of entertaining. Even if they're a bit confusing.
For instance why is "illustrious" in quotation marks here? You can't ridicule lawyers who write books when you don't have a GED. That's in the Bill of Rights. And for the record even Commonwealth's adhere to the Bill of Rights.
Also why are ellipses being used? They don't...make much of a...difference. They just make you look like you stutter and your testes haven't descended yet. Both are doubtless true.
Sorry to confuse you. I thought you'd be able to follow. You must admit, lawyers have do not have the best stereotype. You may be different, it is hard to tell from our brief encounters here. I've done some checking and have found that you are supposedly a "hilarious guy, that needs a bigger stage." I used quotation marks there because that is quote from another lawyer that knows you. I posted the original comment because the the negative statements you made about UK and their coaches. I realize your intent was to get a rise from some Big Blue fans. You indeed succeeded.
By the way, I hold a Bachelor's Degree and Master's Degree from WKU, I do not stutter, and my testes are exactly where they should be and in fine working order. Thanks for your concern.
Travis,
Show UK's basketball coach some love. He can out coach Bruce weather he had a couple to drink or not.
Fanshots has a different take. However, both are funny. The same dealership once did a Rick Pitino edition for an Explorer. It has since been painted red and black after he signed on with the commuter school.
