Steve Spurrier Enjoys Oats, Hay, Mounting Mares

For years, SEC opponents have been referring to South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier as a horse's ass. Now, once and for all, he is a horse. And he might just make the Kentucky Derby. More »

Hmm, Who Would Win A Fight Between Herschel And Spurrier?

There's not much more ironically amusing than Steve Spurrier lecturing someone else on sportsmanship, but he's been going after Georgia recently for their big touchdown-pile-on a few weeks ago. He said he'd have sent in a third-string Gamecock to start a fight, therefore getting a bunch of Bulldogs suspended. Clever, Spurrier, but there's one thing you didn't count on: Herschel Freaking Walker. More »

Ole' Ball Coach Has Half a Mind to Tear Off Corso's Merkin

When Steve Spurrier arrived at South Carolina questions arose as to just how quickly he could turn the perennial also-rans into legitimate contenders. As a an undying supporter of the Ball Coach (yeah, I got custom tags when he came to DC) I knew it would just be a matter of time. Unfortunately not everybody has been so quick to support the mercurial southerner. The loudest voice of descent dissent obviously belongs to buffoon talking head, Lee Corso. On an episode of College Gameday the blustering ex-coach vocalized his thoughts, "I don't think Spurrier can win the SEC or National Title! I don't care if he coaches here 400 years!" Well Steve Spurrier and the South Carolina faithful weren't about to take that shit lying down. Yep, they made a video...and a website! More »

Misguided Sports Sartorial Decisions

Just Call Me Juice is doing a clever series in which they ask readers to tell the stories of their most embarrassing, rueful jersey purchases. Unsilent Majority keeps the series going with his gruesome tale of buying a Steve Spurrier Redskins jersey (with the number he wore as a player), though we do think, if the Redskins ever become good again, that thing could have some serious ironic value.

Yet Another Death You Can Blame On Steve Spurrier

In honor of the great Simpsons statement against seven-day waiting periods to buy weapons — "But I'm mad NOW!" — we present a distinct moment in college football history: The time a 42-year-old guy named Jimmy shot a 43-year-old man named Ricky in the chest because of a $20 bet on the Clemson-South Carolina game. Strange thing about it: Jimmy won the bet! More »

Our Polling Process May Be Flawed

It's about time for the college football preseason polls to start rolling out, and the USA Today Coaches Poll unveiled theirs yesterday. At the top, there's Ohio State, Texas, USC, Notre Dame, blah blah blah. And appearing at the very end, at the bottom of the "Others Receiving Votes" section... there's Duke. More »

We're As Shocked As You!

It hasn't taken new South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier very long to start making people hate him. Two South Carolina players were arrested for stealing electronic equipment and were later kicked off the team. They are now claiming that Spurrier promised them that no charges would be filed because they were football players. The South Carolina president's office were less forgiving, and when it found out, the players were booked. Spurrier had no comment at press time, though reporters, while asking him questions, couldn't help but notice the smell of sulfur in the air. More »
