LEMAN/STANZI 2012: WE HAVE A CAMPAIGN SLOGAN

by Adam Jacobi on Jan 28, 2010 3:31 PM CST in Iowa Hawkeyes Football Comment 27 comments

As we mentioned this morning, Ricky Stanzi was in the house last night at the Iowa-OSU game, and he ~~fucked around and got a triple-double~~ was signing autographs for the appreciate Iowa fans. You know... real Americans.*

But while he endorsed our Americanzi t-shirt with little more than a signature, our Warrior-Patriot had a bigger message for at least one lucky fan with an Orange Bowl poster:

Indeed, in just three short weeks, what was an impassioned cry tothe people of the Midwest has grown into a movement, one that calls us all to action. LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT, people, and it goes for everything. Someone at the dinner table grimacing at the chicken mash you made? Love it or leave it. Get busy livin', or get busy dyin'. If you ain't first, you're last. Matt Damon.

So now we've got a presidential ticket and a campaign slogan. Next up: time to move those polls. Hey, if Stephen Colbert can poll 5th during primary season, Leman/Stanzi can get at least 2nd in Iowa. What party, you ask? Why, the ~~Lemon~~ America Party. It's on, America. Love it or leave it.

*That's the new code for "white people," right?

Any truth to the transfer rumor?

I understand the Manzi’s furious over the Iowa-South Korea connection and is contemplating transfer to a more ’Murican institute of higher learning?

Everyone fails. The successful learn from their failures. I just wish we'd quit giving ourselves so many learning opportunities.

If this ticket can get top 2 in Iowa

then they should be able to gather a top 4 in Illinois (and perhaps Minnesota) as well, right?

Minnesota only elects

WWF wrestlers and old Saturday Night Live cast members.

Didn't Hubert H. Humphrey

wrestle under the nickname “Triple H”?

Less memorable than Sam Okey's Hawkeye career.

Just wanted that out there.

I love more than YOU do.

So I’m a better ’mericanzi.

My wife responded to my amorous advances last night

and told me that I made her “stanzi in her panzi’s.” So I loved her then left her.

If you feel like singing along, don't.

Wooh, doggie.

This shit’s just oozing American. Mr. Stanzi… I choose to LOVE IT!

I had a campaign slogan

all set for him, but now I’m thinking “Pick Rick” will just have folks focusing on the negative.

Greetings

First time, long time, love the show, 6’4’’ 200, (ding) and all of that. I’ve been reading your stuff for awhile now, but you deserve a standing ovation for this one, sir.
