| Star Players: |
"Eric
Leiwant (aka The Bear Jew) - He uses his old wooden bat to bash his
opponents. Don't let the fact that he's Jewish fool you.
He's also a bear, for G-d's sake!
Luke Burke - He just really looks the part...i.e. he's got a huge beer
gut.
Joe Pellington - He can hit, he can run, he can field, and he briefed
the $hit out of Lawrence v. Texas.
Tim Haas - he will talk the other team's ears off and bother the crap
out of them, getting them completely off their game." |
| Law Review Nerds: |
"3?
Does Confederate Law Society Monthly count as a journal?" |
| Team's History: |
"Heard
we made the Semifinals 2 years ago. Last year was like a bad
dream. Only 3 starters return from that disappointing squad.
Hopefully the new blood, a change in attitude and more
expensive
bats will lead us to the promise land. The rebel flag will
fly
again, and not just on our State Capitol grounds." |
| Practice Regimen: |
"Practice?
We're too busy drinking sweet tea, hunting, sleeping with our
sisters, going to church, re-enacting the Civil War with the South
winning...etc." |
| Want to Play Against: |
"Duke -
they suck.
GW - they blow.
Maryland - they suck AND blow, like mega-maid.
Too
bad G'town isn't back. Would have loved to have had the
opportunity to play them again. Their fans were annoying as
hell." |
| DON'T Want to Play Against: |
"Regent...we're sick of playing those guys." |
| Favorite Thing About the Tournament: |
"Getting
a chance to see how unattractive normal college students actually are
and realizing just how good we have it here at USC. Sorry
UVA,
you guys are just too smart to be really really good looking like us." |
| The Tournament Would Be Better If: |
"...there
were a keg on 2nd base." |
| Anything Else?: |
"We
actually have more players on our roster from the North than we do from
the South...so all these Southern jokes are actually just sarcasm." |
|
|
| Analysts' Take: |
Wow,
these "southern" "gentlemen" sure do have a way with words.
Their hostility towards the other teams will probably make
for
some contentious battles on (and perhaps off) the field. The
real
question, however, is whether these guys can back up their
words
and pull out some Ws in pod play. (We're skeptical.) |
