Around SBN: Nevin Shapiro Vows To Bring Down Miami

It's Time for a Change

I think it's obvious now to all of us what the problem is, and I think we need to do something about it. We just simply cannot let this continue. We have to cut ties before it gets worse.

Star-divide

Perhaps she has become old and tired, as she's been through a busy and stressful several months. Perhaps she is yet to recover from the Colt injury. I can't say for sure, but I think it may be time to retire Psycho Lady. She just isn't capable of bringing the added fire twice a week during a grueling conference run. And as much I hate to say it, she has reached her ceiling and is now taking a step backwards.

I am not sure who we could get to replace her. I mean, seriously, who in their right mind would want to walk into a situation like this after we force out such a brilliant force who has become the face of our game threads?

We should probably start placing some calls to see who we could get. I've spent the last 15 hours brainstorming and here are some potential candidates I have come up with:

 

The Dude -

Pros- Sports background, mild-tempered, calm under pressure, loves White Russians.

Cons- Wrong sport, lethargic, offensive (but by the wrong definition), loves White Russians.

Kevin McAllister -

Pros - Young, full of energy, good under pressure, crafty, brilliant on the home court.

Cons -  Shorter than Jai Lucas, more annoying than Hamilton's shot selection.

Home-alone1243399120_medium

 

Pennywise -

Pros - Instills fear, can climb lampposts, can juggle.

Cons - Kills children.

Stephen-kings-it-pennywise_medium

 

This monkey -

Pros - Surprisingly quick and agile, can be trained to consistently make free throws.

Cons - a monkey, bad hair, worse sweater.

Shocked_20monkey_medium

 

This Math Major / Robot. With lasers.

Pros - Distracting to opponents.

Cons - Distracting to our own team and fans, but honestly, I really just wanted to post this picture.

Texaschick2_medium

 

Am I simply overreacting to a shooting slump, a tough schedule, or overinflated expectations?

Please post your suggestions.

I vote for The Dude. Because at this point, if we’re down 10 at the half to Nebraska, I will feel exactly like that. Screaming lady is when you had expectations to begin with.

I sat in a production truck for a Mets game once

During commercial breaks, the cameramen spend the entire time scanning the crowd looking for hot chicks. The producer will say something like “zoom on camera 3, we caught a big one.”

During the fall

we had a good halftime pic (cheerleader) and a bad halftime pic (screaming lady). Will the same apply here?

The cameramen had the babe in their sights all during the 2nd half last night.

None of these pics will be as good as Psycho Lady so just keep looking. The Babe, however, is strictly for recreational purposes and would apply to any situation. Always love seeing a gal with burnt orange hair and 2 top running back recruits hiding under her shirt.

tough call

i liked The Dude, but the face palm seems really appropriate. In fact, that’s been me a lot lately. I think The Babe should be used for post game celebration threads—kind of like BON’s version of lighting the tower.

by zissou on Feb 9, 2010 6:47 PM CST reply actions  

I like the Tower idea.

Perhaps somebody who actually has Photoshop can do this better.

There's a joke to be made about her and lighting the tower

But I’ll leave that to the rest of you, while I scour the internet for more of her.

Guess we need to decide between "oh crap" and "keep up the rally"

Maybe The Dude or Facepalm for disasters, and Rally Babe for good first halves.

You ain't hurt...

by Peter Bean on Feb 9, 2010 7:07 PM CST reply actions  

You are overthinking this.

It’s Rally Babe by a landslide. And the background does not matter. Pick one.

Great Fan Post

But I’m still holding out for the pic Adam James took of himself with his cell phone while locked in the electrical closet.

Never experienced that personally, but I’d imagine it was palpable to how I felt while watching the KU game last night.

Oops. I thought maybe this was a lucky break for her since she models anyway, but now I feel bad for her. She’s probably super creeped out.

I have to admit I saw this coming.

I do feel bad for any inconvenience this may cause her, but hey, it’s great free publicity and maybe it’ll help her modeling career out.

I’m still in awe of how gorgeous she is.

I'm in awe of how awesome her bod looks in those unflattering jeans

I mean, I see the further-back pictures, where the shut-in jeans are visible, and she still looks better than 95% of the college hotties back in my day did in their slinkiest gowns.

Modeling picture taken down at user's request

hayzer13 read this post and understandably didn’t want to leave the modeling picture up, asking us to delete his comment. I’ve deleted it, and would ask that we not post any additional pictures of the young woman beyond the ones from the game showing her Texas fandom.

Um, so I am a father of 19 year old also...and....

WHAT IS HER DAD THINKING? I appreciate an attractive young woman but attractive and dressed in a provocative manner? All alone at courtside? This is too suspicious to be true. Call me cynical. I’m not sure I buy the story.

What?

You dont believe a 19 year old girl who has probably been the hottest girl she knows for years, can go to a game alone?

She wasnt dressed like that FSU chick whose name escapes me, she had jeans and a tight fitting crew shirt. Whats suspicious about that?

One thing to consider:

Smokin’ babe is, well, smokin’ hot, but her one appearance at a Texas game ended in very convincing loss. Maybe she’s not the icon for a comeback?
