Kiffin Continues to Gig Gators: "You can tell she's a Florida grad, she's been drinking all day."
Friday, May 15, 2009
Now at least Kiffin seems to have gotten the memo on what's acceptable to say about your rivals. Arriving at a Young Professionals of Knoxville (insert your own joke here), we get this first hand report from DeepVol.:
"Coach Kiffin came in about ten minutes later to thunderous applause. Spoke for about five minutes on how to be successful and the need to surround yourself with people smarter than you, so that you will be challenged and not just agreed with etc.
The best part was that as soon as he walked in the door the three local stations camera men came out of nowhere and started rolling. Coach Kiffin was supposed to be introduced by one of the officer's of YPK, the officer in question was a Florida grad. Kiffin found this out prior and of course had a laugh at her expense. Calling everyone's attention to that fact. She was a little embarrassed but played along and mentioned that she was very glad that he was in town now and that she was really looking forward to September.
Not missing a beat Kiffin said "Well, you can tell she is a Florida Gator, she's been drinking all day." Making mention of the beer in her had. Again laughter from everyone including her. The funniest part was as soon as he said it turned to look at the cameras at the side of the room and said "Aw man, they got me again."
I'm telling you, I said it months ago, Kiffin is rapidly moving towards joke immunity. Pretty soon he's going to walk into a room, drop his pants, defecate on a Florida Gator flag, and newscasters are going to be like, "Is that really news?"
Except for Urban Meyer, who will immediately call a press conference and say, "I want you to hear this straight from me." Clenched jaw. "I am a Florida Gator and I do not drink all day. I'm offended. I think Coach Kiffin owes the state of Florida an apology." Labels: lane kiffin florida tennessee you can tell she's a florida gator, she's been drinking all day."

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...
