Victoria's Secrect Panty Contest ; Pink Collegiate Collection Dominated By Zion Bible College
Wednesday, April 29, 2009
Reader Sayward sent along a link to the top 25 schools currently ranked in the contest. Texas Tech is in first place with over 5 million votes. Drexel is in second place with 5 million votes as well. Mike Leach is the reason for the first place showing for Tech, and Drexel has an identity crisis because they're a Philadelphia school that one can remember is actually in Philadelphia. But who's in the top ten with over 1 million votes? How about Zion Bible College.
Quoth Sayward:
So a friend sent me this link to nominate ole miss for some collegiate underwear or something. Ole Miss doesn’t have a chance because the girls at ole miss, at least for the most part, won’t wear something like this. That said, why is Zion Bible College so high on this list?
First, a couple of things worth discussing, when Sayward writes "the girls at Ole Miss, at least for the most part, won't wear something like this," I'm interpreting this to mean that the women of Ole Miss never wear panties. Ever.
I've never been more confident about my high ranking of Ole Miss women before. I wrote back to Sayward and she claims this wasn't the intent of her wording, but I don't buy it. I'm a strict constructionist when it comes to women not wearing underwear.
So, this raises a question, who is behind the Zion Baptist College's connection to Victoria's Secret? I have no idea, but this internet mystery must be uncovered. In the meantime, you should know that Zion Baptist College is a small school of ministry located in Massachusetts. Here's their website.
Internet research uncovers the outcome, computer hackers from MIT:
Finally, Victoria's Secret took notice - and blocked the top five schools from voting after a mass attack from MIT crashed the Web site.
Faced with this dilemma, MIT students got creative.
"The MIT kids thought 'hell if we cant vote for ourselves we'll vote for someone else,'" said Michael, an MIT sophomore who preferred his last name not be used because he participated in the scheme.
"Luckily at MIT we are motivated by the ridiculous to do this kind of thing," he said.
A student created a script to vote for random schools and sent it to MIT students.
In no more than two days, Wellesley and Zion Bible College rocketed to the top of the list.
"Right after that, Victoria's Secret ended up blocking MIT entirely so we couldn't access the site," Michael said.
According to Taylor, most of Zion Bible College's votes came from him. He also wrote a script for Virginia Tech.
"I was looking at their little Facebook group supporting their school, and they had been working really hard … so I voted for them so they wouldn't feel too bad."
Victoria's Secret has now implemented a new security system that lets users vote only once a day, and has a warning: "Tech schools, we're watching your votes!"
Anyway, I think the instructive lesson we can all take from this is that Ole Miss girls don't wear panties. Labels: zion bible college victoria's secret ole miss girls don't wear panties

Travis has become enamored of several objects, phrases or events which he frequenly references in the column. Among the most frequent:
'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...

Never have I been so glad to have not gone to school at MIT. Instead of writing computer programs to cast votes for a Victoria's Secret contest, I went to school in the SEC where there actually are Victoria's Secret-like girls walking around.
Just for the record, Russell Sage College is a night school in Troy, NY. If they win, and the countless hours I've spent logging votes for the University of Vermont are for naught, I'm going to set myself on fire.
