OVERZEALOUS GAMECOCK DOMINATION

I HAVE SEEN THE LIGHT....AND THE LIGHT IS COMING FROM COLUMBIA, SOUTH CAROLINA.

Tonight, against all odds a vastly overmatched University of South Carolina Gamecocks football team eviscerated the Tennessee Volunteers.

SOS took a team that would be beaten by the Little Giants and turned them into instant National Championship contenders. The polls may prevent the Gamecocks from taking their rightful throne as BCS champions, but next year will be a different story. Steve Spurrier has already taken the team to #1 ranking in the OP poll, next year it WILL BE ALL POLLS.

In two weeks, the Gators will face the man who should have been their coach, if treated with the proper respect. SOS will show no mercy to the men who stabbed him in the back. Foley and Machen, you two made your bed, now you have to lie in it.

Once again, Stephen Orr Spurrier proved he is the greatest coach of all time, in any sport.

Overzealous thoughts

Apparently Rosa Parks died today. I had no idea she was still alive. Anyway, I think she was overrated.

ALSO....

Today marks the one year anniversary that the University of Florida was rid of the curse that is Ron Zook. Rejoice for we do not have to put up with this:

"We can do what we need to do, we just have to do it when we need to do it."

"Throwing the ball downfield? I'm not sure if that means throwing it long or throwing it deep."

Following a loss to Ole Miss that featured a game plan to run the football against a defense that was torched for over 500 yards passing the previous week: "We thought they thought we would try to pass it."

''I don't know what to tell you, I know what we're doing works. Obviously, it's not working out there, but like I told our football team: We're not going to stop. We're going to keep coaching, we're going to keep pushing, we're going to keep pressing."

"I know we are close. We have a long way to go, but we are close."

"There's really not a whole lot you can say," said Illini coach Ron Zook after watching his team's losing streak reach five games. "We're going to keep pushing and squeezing and turning. I know there were some good things out there tonight. We've got to keep going."

"Rex was open"- On Vernell Brown's pass attempt in the Outback bowl

"I am not Steve Spurrier."

WE SHOULDV'E BROUGHT BACK SPURRIER!!! FIRE FOLEY!!! FIRE MACHEN!!!

Overzealous Jackass Orchestra

OP EXCLUSIVE:

A lot of people have been hearing rumors that the newly-formed Jackass Orchestra will be going on tour soon. I am not allowed to divulge too much at this time, but the details of who is playing what are:

Drums - KMac
Guitar - Disco
Keyboard - Admiral

It is possible that Red Hat will be performing background vocals and TheGreatOne will mostly be complaining.

Overzealous Ugliest Baby Alive

After a brief hiatus while drawing up some ball plays with Stephen Orr Spurrier I have returned.

Now, I'm sure most of us have seen the ugliest dog alive:

Now I would like to introduce you all to the uglies baby alive. The mother of this child is one of the most beautiful women on earth, Heidi Klum. The father however, is Seal...and he apparently brings the average way down. Be prepared ladies and gentlemen, I give you Heidi Klum and Seal's child, courtesy of German In Touch Magazine:

Overzealous Godmothers

By way of a loyal OP reader:

"Scouting for 'Camel Toads' at Pool"

Ummm... lady, just sit back, sip your iced tea, and relax. :) No, it's not him becoming a drug addict that you need to worry about.

It's him becoming a Democrat that should worry you. I know you're a decent God-fearing patriotic American, that is to say, a Republican, so you have to understand that your godson is a crude young lad, destined to follow in Bill Clinton's footsteps of objectifying women, surely, the fairer sex. He will most likely become a Democrat without some real guidance from you because obviously his parents aren't doing a good job (I'm not sure which is worse, 'camel toes' or 'camel toad'...).

The next time you give him an iced tea, give him a little American flag, too. Sing a song, like, say... Lee Greenwood's 'God Bless the U.S.A.'

Overzealous HEROS

Does anyone read this blog anymore? LOL... I guess not, so I will just post a little something for you and me before hitting the books again.

HOW WILLIAM SHATNER CHANGED THE WORLD

To quote:

You’ve got a cell phone at o­ne ear, an iPod at the other, you know that Blackberry is now a verb and Spam is not o­nly canned meat of questionable origin. But just how did we get here? Blame William Shatner – yes, that William Shatner. Premiering Sun., Nov. 13 at 8 p.m. ET/9 p.m. PT o­n Discovery Channel, How William Shatner Changed the World boldly goes where few have gone before to reveal how scientists are surpassing the far-out vision of the future foreshadowed in Star Trek

Brace yourselves, for on November 13th, you will realize what I have been telling you all along: Star Trek is real and bringing us into its future.

Never forget that this future belongs to you as well, it is not too late to understand Star Trek's magnificence, as well as Captain James T. Kirk's. Kirk, obviously, is still going strong. Got to love him.

Overzealous Bad Blogging

Because I'm desperate here, I will go ahead and just paste the most ridiculous quiz I have ever taken. Comments are, frankly, unwelcome, though I know that won't stop Red Hat. Maybe I'll just pre-empt him. OKay, here goes:

RH: Well isn't Admiral a barrel of laughs?

Or

RH: I love the smell of bad blog posts in the morning.

Hahaha! Okay, now moving on to the 'bad blog post'... and let me be clear: due to this most ridiculous and insane result, let's just say that I never took the quiz in the first place and also that it's ludicrously untrue.

Your Seduction Style: Fantasy Lover

You know that ideal love that each of us dreams of from childhood? That's you! Not because you posess all of the ideal characteristics, but because you are a savvy shape shifter. You have the uncanny ability to detect someone's particular fantasy... and make it you. You inspire each person to be an idealist and passionate, and you make each moment memorable Even a simple coffee date with you can be the most romantic moment of someone's life By giving your date exactly what he or she desires, you quickly become the ideal lover. Your abilities to make dreams come true is so strong, that you are often the love of many people's lives. Your ex's (and even people you have simply met or been friends with) long to be yours. No doubt you are the one others have dreamed of... your biggest challenge is finding *your* dream lover.

What Kind of Seducer Are You?

Overzealous Mandla

Ahem, via Matt Drudge:

"Wonder and his current wife, Kai, celebrated the birth of their son, Mandla, a name the musician says was suggested by a friend, former South African President Nelson Mandela."

That'd be like me telling you all to name your kids WAUGH! Nigga, please!

Overzealous UES Avoidance

I'll be time-out coordinator at the volleyball game on Wednesday (starts @ 7, but call is @ 4). So if anyone wants to bust out of UES, avoid CRs like the plauge (Admiral?) and come watch Red Hat doing some serious red-hatting, I encourage you to do so.

Plus, c'mon, volleyball girls. It's like window shopping for guys.

Overzealous Skip Update

From Skip Moedinger's latest profile at UCF on thefacebook:

"I now see clearly that I am a man of destiny. No plan of God's can be thwarted. Please aid in this process coming to pass by praying for me. I see with vivid clarity that God has an urgent call upon my life, a claim I must to him for. He has given me a sharp mind and a courageous heart, which I must use to promote love, truth, and justice. I need to free the slaves and rescue the precious diamonds of human sould from being cast into the garbage heap of hell."

When I met him, I hugged him. When Disco met him, he picked Skip up. Now you can see why we have such affection for him.

Overzealous reminder

Just wanted to remind you all that Jeremy Foley hired Ron Zook:

"When I say we're not as far away as everyone thinks, people probably chuckle,'' Zook said. "But the things that need to be corrected are correctible.''

Erin Andrews ESPN: “Well coach Marcus Randall comes in and gives LSU quite a boost. What kind of adjustments do you need to make?”

Ron Zook Unqualified Head Football Coach at The University of Florida: “Well you know we just got to play, we got to get into that situation, we’re gonna be in that situation, there’s no question being in that situation during a game. Our guys gotta play. I mean, you know it’s just, ah, you know, we can’t freeze up. We got, we can’t be afraid to come after them and do the things we do. We can’t, you know you get into those situations you got to be able to play ’em.

Fire Foley! Fire Machen!
Spurrier for President of UF!

Overzealous Blood for Oil

***OP EXCLUSIVE***

This just in to the OP compound:

Apparently some "miscreants" have taken the opportunity to scrawl a PRO Blood for Oil message along the wall on 34th St. I don't know how long it will be there, or who actually did the deed, but pay special attention when driving by today. I cannot imagine that the ANTI Blood for Oil faction will let it stay up for long.

To follow up, there is a facebook group run by associate OP Mike Redondo also, perhaps coincidentally, called YES Blood for Oil.

IMPACTING......

Getting Overzealously Angry

That's what I'm getting. You know how it is with me, a few slights here and there I can deal. When it starts mounting, I snap and all Hell breaks loose. People start crying. People dive into foxholes to avoid fallout. That sort of thing.

So let me tick off a few of the tidbits beginning to grate:
-Economics Society meetings: the last one might've been the worst I've been to in years. I need you to come and make it good again. For those of you casual readers, we meet Wednesdays at 5:10 pm in Matherly 120-- well, when we're lucky. When we're not, we're up in MAT224.
-The French using cats and dogs as live bait for sharks. I'm this close to the edge, folks.
-Not getting credit for quality foreign policy decisions. Karen Hughes has always been frank, opinionated, and she's almost always right. Here, she couldn't have been any closer to the mark, as TNR's TA Frank highlights, and yet liberals are criticizing her. She said that women should be able to drive in Saudi Arabia. OH, woe of WOES!
-And I swear, so help me God, if anyone lays a finger on Margaret Thatcher, there are going to be SERIOUS consequences. She did *nothing wrong* and this is yet another attempt to smear her by the bums who keep trying to appropriate credit for the remarkable progress the UK has seen since her premiereship. This attempt shall fail, just as all the others have.

Let me be clear. If I was President, and they dared to touch Thatcher, to paraphrase Jason Bourne, I swear to God, if I had even the slightest piece of evidence that this happened, there is no measure to how fast and how hard I would bring this fight to their doorstep.

Overzealous Presidential Candidate

Ladies and Gentleman,

Forget Hillary.

Forget Condi.

Forget Kerry.

Forget Frist.

Overzealous Book Sales

IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR!!!!!!!!

This won't be the last time you hear about it, but it might be the first... the semi-annual Friends of the Library book sale is coming up. Kids, I'm not joshin with you. This is a serious book sale. Some of you know that I have a massive library at my residence, Starfleet Command, in Williamsburg Village. Most of the books have been bought at the FOL booksales over the past two years.

This is an amazing opportunity. They fill up this massive warehouse on Main Street with books of all kinds, sorted by type. History, science fiction, gardening, hobbies, magazines (all your favorites), psychology, political science, mathematics, physics, cooking, romance, biography, architecture, painting, and much much more.

Stripped from their website:

• Largest Book Sale of its kind in Florida - More than 300,000 books, records, games, CDs, DVDs, audio, video, paintings, posters, prints, puzzles and magazines have been donated for the sale!
• Hundreds of thousands of books and other items have been sorted and priced. The sale features books in more than 50 categories!
• A vast array of classical and modern fiction, textbooks, large-print books, first editions and rare books, cookbooks, hobby books, plus a wide variety of other classifications!
• Most prices range from $0.25 to $3.00
• Collectors' Corner featuring signed books, 1st editions, Florida collectibles
• Over 90% of items for sale were donated by the public (less than 10% from the library)
• Bring your own boxes !
• All profits are used for the Alachua County Library District and community literacy projects.

As many of you know, I worked for the Alachua County Lib. Dist. for some time and enjoyed it immensely. This is the best library system in the WORLD. They have NO LATE FEES on ANYTHING. Although they recently changed the amount of time you can loan media out (from 14 to 7 days), the real point is: they have all the latest videos AND THERE ARE NO LATE FEES.

This book sale is one of my favorite times of the year. Mark your calendars now!

Overzealous DESTRUCTION

This just in! This just in! Hot off Matt Drudge's presses, we have this report that 'Commander-in-Chief' Donald Sutherland, who plays the villainous, evil Republican congressman on ABC's smash hit 'Commander-in-Chief' just declared:

BUSH WILL DESTROY OUR LIVES.



He says:

And they were insulting, and they were vindictive. And they were heartless. They did not care. They do not care. They do not care about Iraqi people. They do not care about the families of dead soldiers. They only care about profit. ... We stolen our children's future... We have children. We have children. How dare we take their legacy from them. How dare we. It's shameful. What we are doing to our world. ... We're back to burning books in Germany.

PRESIDENT BUSH: STOP THIS MADNESS. WE HAVE CHILDREN. WE HAVE ***CHILDREN***! STOP BURNING THE BOOKS AND CENSORING OUR WORDS, OUR SPEECH, OUR THOUGHTS!!!

GET OUT OF MY HEAAAAAAAAAAAAD!!!!!!!!!!!

And now, back to our regularly scheduled celebrity moments of genius.

Overzealous Reagan & Gator Notes

No, loyal readers, I cannot answer as to why no one will post on this blog. But I shall try my best.

First: I'd like to give a shout out to RedLetterHistory, associate OP Matthew McCluskey, who now fights on for our overzealous causes at Harvard. His AIM profile contains this quote: I miss those eight years of pure GENIUS. Read the quotes and yearn for the glory days of a President who could sell a good idea. Unfortunately, we have a President who probably couldn't sell Will & Grace at this point, and we all know how ridiculously overrated that show is.

Second: I do like Urban Meyer. He's exactly the right coach for this program-- assuming that Steve Spurrier isn't available. Contrary to what some people will say, such as associate OP Marla DeVicente, Steve's chances of returning to UF were completely and utterly foreclosed by Bernie Machen and Jeremy Foley. Their administration degrades on a daily basis-- the decisions on 'binge drinking' and 'Kanye cartoon' come to mind.

Third: Steve Spurrier did better against Alabama than Urban Meyer did, and with far less talent, and infinitely less strength and speed. With his will alone, Spurrier scored two touchdowns against Shula's Tuscaloosa monstrosity-- which will now surely go to the National Championship game assuming we can't stop them in the SEC Championship... although the assumption is flawed and we can stop them there. This is the first time since 1992, I believe, that UF has not scored a touchdown in a game. Even Ron Zook could not accomplish this feat.

Fourth: I speak for all the OPers when I say that we resolutely stand behind Urban Meyer, but urge him to become more creative on offense and stretching the field. We don't know what we're going to do about Chris Leak yet, but our receivers are of the HIGHEST caliber-- truly spectacular athletes and people who I believe can carry us yet to great victory this year.
