That's just the plot to Happy Gilmore.

Can't let this slide either. It's the plot of Billy Madison.

"I knew a month ago."

Should we go ahead and etch this on multiple plaques for 2013 IE Awards?

In all seriousness, how is it possible there hasn't been an actual update on this situation? If it's been going on for longer than the past couple of weeks we've been talking about it, you would think EV would have by now just come out and said he's not coming to ND and is in the process of figuring out when he can sign up with someone else.

You would think he would want to clear up the speculation sooner rather than later. The timing just seems more and more odd with every day that passes. Matthew Thomas at least came out and said he wants out from FSU. It's strange that EV hasn't yet if that's in fact what he wants.

Or am I being naive / missing something?
Matthew Thomas' excuse for canceling his commitment is simple enough - my mother made me do it!(commit to Miami). The Vanderdoes' excuse to cancel may be more convoluted. Striking a Faustian bargain with another school does impinge on one's integrity.

Late to the party but I won the 4th grade spelling bee in my class because 6 people spelt 'squirrel' wrong. I was the last one standing and spelt it right.

Boom. 4th grade swag commenced after that.

Would like to point out the irony of the word spelled being misspelled in regards to a spelling bee....

Ok, here is what is going to happen - EV will come out before the media with an extremely contrite look on his face and basically explain how it was all a big misunderstanding, his bags are packed for arrival at ND on June 17th or whenever that date is, and he will promptly rip a phone book in half with his bare hands while screaming "GO IRISH!" When the d-bag from the Sacramento Bumble Bee asks him why he isn't going to UCLA, EV will punch said reporter in the face and go bite off a wrestling ring turnbuckle a la George "The Animal" Steel, asking said d-bag, "You want some of this???"

Mark it down.

Game, blouses.

I think this is all an elaborate plan since ND screwed up the surprise of the commitment. He does the hat selection thing again and ND nation goes wild when he chooses us. Again.

They are waiting and hoping the NCAA acts on his petition before June 17.

I'm actually starting to believe, the more this drags out, that EV is definitely waiting to see what the NCAA rules and if they rule against him, that he just might show in SB on June 17. Otherwise, why not go ahead and announce he is not coming to ND, no matter what, and that once the NCAA has had a chance to review his appeal, he will hold a press conference and give his statement on why he no longer will be attending ND. By not saying anything, yet, it makes you wonder if he will honor his LOI if (when) the NCAA does not reverse ND's decision.

I can't let this slide. I lost a spelling bee in third grade because I misspelled "stopped." It's haunted me for 25 years. I normally wouldn't give a shits otherwise.

I lost one in the 4th grade for spelling "herb" e-r-b. I actually punched a locker over it.. feel your pain nuke.

I lost one in the sixth grade because of supercalifragilisticexpialidocious... No, really.

Also, this thread can officially go away now.


I would lose a spelling bee now in my mid 30s with any of those words, really.

Mine sucked, I was always good in school, A student for the most part, but I didn't really apply myself... well coming into the sixth grade spelling bee we were all given a list of potential 'bonus' or 'tie-breaker' words and supercalifragilisticexpialidocious was one of them... being the passive kid I was I thought, "Eh, there is no way anyone else at my school will take the time to study that word, and the school won't really use it anyway..."

Sure enough the final five or so kids could not seperate themselves (myself included) so they brought in a 'bonus word'... sure wnough, right off the bat, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious... they started with me and I kind of shrugged off, gave a limp attempt at it and thought, "Eh, not like anyone else will get it,... I'm cool"


...


Each of the other kids nailed it with ease...

fvk those kids to this day.

:)
