Should One Make Fun Of The Pathelogically Delusional?
Poor Jollyblogger he confuses spelling and typography with education and intelligence. I wonder if he ever read anything written by Albert Einstein before the editors got to it? (I'm sure not, that would require him to do math.)
Besides, some of us have jobs and whole other blogs - important blogs - with big national media exposure to concern ourselves with - proofreading is for the assistant I don't have.
And then he cites Wikipedia as somehow authoritative when it comes to academics?
There is his claim that Hinkle Fieldhouse never played home to a national champion team. Why, Butler won the national championship in 1924 and 1929 (was Florida even a state then?) the later being the year the fieldhouse opened, so guess again Bulldog bait.
But what matters history you say? Motivation. At this level it is the intangibles that win games and Butler has that in spades.
You would think a preacher might recognize the Biblical parallels here, but then when you are clearly in the Philistine army, you cannot recognize that David's sling is gonna smote your big boy, big time.
The Reverend Wayne does cite all that research Florida does, but what does it matter when the team will go NBA after their sophomore year, never seeing anything remotely resembling a degree. You see at Butler we have actual student-athletes.
And then there is the State of Florida -- you know, if we cut it off from the rest of the nation, Social Security would be solvent for the next 10 generations? It's a swamp land where old people go to sweat. I am actually amazed they can find a student body in that place. It's probably also worth pointing out that Indiana was on the winning side of the Civil War, as many Floridians no doubt remember from personal experience.
I should stop now...I don't want to damage David too much, I'll leave that up to the final score.
