'13 CA DT Eddie Vanderdoes (UCLA)

[dshans]

isn't dammit with two m's?

In my lexicon/style book it is – when connoting a light or humorous tone.

A more severe and angry tone, as well as a variation, is found in Ezra Pound's Ancient Music:

Winter is icummen in,
Lhude sing Goddamm.
Raineth drop and staineth slop,
And how the wind doth ramm!
Sing: Goddamm.

Skiddeth bus and sloppeth us,
An ague hath my ham.
Freezeth river, turneth liver,
Damn you, sing: Goddamm.

Goddamm, Goddamm, 'tis why I am, Goddamm,
So 'gainst the winter's balm.

Sing goddamm, damm, sing Goddamm.
Sing goddamm, sing goddamm, DAMM.

Nock, nock.
Whose their?
Tutu.
To to whom?
Are you making fun of my stuttering?
Know, you're grammer.
Knok, knok.
Who is there?
DI.
DI hoo?
Dee Eye.
D'Aye.
Forget it, dammit, know wans inn ...

Two m's.

 

[Damion704]

EV.. enough with this spelling crap.

[koonja]

If ^ isn't a future NT IDK what is, lol.

 

[Ironman8]

His biceps are bigger than my thighs.

 

[Luckylucci]

He did say that he was going to spend every moment until July getting ready for ND. Looks to be paying off.

 

[condoms SUCk]

If I saw that running towards me I would soil myself, and I wouldn’t even be sorry about it.

 

[tadman95]

Sounds like he's coming in to play, and quickly.

[Irish YJ]

Good Lord. Good to be Irish.
Hope he jumps right into the rotation. Would love to get 3-4 stellar years out of this young man. Not so bold prediction --- we will be talking about this young man for years and years to come.

 

[rtrn2glory]

i went to the ohio st spring practice on saturday.

EV is already every bit the size of any of those guys i saw on saturday and they were some big dudes i'm here to tell ya.

 

[Ultimate Penn St. Hater]

So glad he's Irish.

 

[koonja]

I wouldn't be surprised if this guy is as good or better than Nix by year's end. I think Nix is as good as anyone, but this guy is a once in a decade kind of talent. Before you tell me I'm an idiot, wait until at least week 6. This guy has incredible strength and moves like a boar.

Calling him a first round talent before he even plays a down of college ball is a bit premature don't u think? He's gonna have a tough time just getting PT with Tuitt, Day (who the coaching staff always raves about), and Nix

 

[Kak7304]

Making this judgment on physical appearance only, but he looks like a NFL player. He's the kind of kid Bama has been getting and we've been missing.

Just spent like 10 minutes looking for boar charging videos. Help me out!

 

[Kak7304]

Kelly and his staff aren't just bringing in talent, they're bringing in guys with talent and an absurd work ethic.

 

[BeauBenken]

Eddie reminds me of a bit more physical Day.

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

Oh my lanta... This is frightening.

Love your enthusiasm and faith in EV, but why do we need to wait until week 6 to tell you there's a 0% chance he's better than Nix and a < 1% chance he's as good as Nix...this year?

By year's end? Dude, you're supposed to puff, puff, pass. Not puff, puff, puff, puff, puff...

Seriously, Nix is a 1st round guy. He's a GREAT NT. Need to probably pull the reins back on your early expectations.

We will see. If I'm right or wrong, it won't be hard to see. Page 100 of EV's thread, lol.

 

[Bogtrotter07]

Now a long slow soft pause, as some degree of sanity returns to this thread.

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

I don't think it's even theoretically possible that Ev could pass nix this year...

But if he somehow does, I will cry tears of joy. That would mean nd has a true frosh better than a first round senior.
That's not too shabby at all!

 

[Kanye West]

EV won't start over Nix this year. Nix is the best NT in the country this year and it won't change. EV has that potential but he likely hit it until he's older. Now he will be in the rotation and will be a solid second line player and a force this year.

Screw sanity...pass that damn thing already!

 

[Bogtrotter07]

But, they say I am the kool-aid injecting rose colored glasses wearin' homer!

 

[Fbolt]

"They" are correct-your excitement is infectious though.

 

[koonja]

I know the wild boar comment was a bit out of left field. I just started watching 'Lost', and am currently in season 1. And let me tell you, the boars on that island are bad ***.
