Tyler Jimmer-Jamming Sash Is Not A Profane Man

Fact 1: Tyler Sash is on Twitter.

Fact 2: He told Twitter he was looking for a new background to use.

Fact 3: This would not go unnoticed by the BHGP community.

Background: Our readers no doubt remember commenter HawkeyeRecon's iconic picture of one Tyler Sash; those with crippling amnesia may see below:

Tylermfsash_medium

Sash, of course, was made aware of this by Morehouse during Orange Bowl coverage:

"Somebody sent it to me via e-mail," the all-Big Ten safety from Oskaloosa said Friday morning. "I didn’t know what it meant, exactly. You can take it two different ways. I didn’t know if I was the next ‘Power Ranger’ or something else."

Certainly, it was well-intentioned, the next Power Ranger. How could it not be after the season Sash has had.

There was a retro aspect that Sash wasn't picking up on; clearly the allusion here is that late '70s/early '80s "Electric Company"-type dynamic use of shapes and silhouettes. Then we realized that the Power Rangers are retro to people Sash's age, and that made us feel old. And then there's the issue of the language, which we'd never use here (cough). Indeed, Sash balked at one "helpful" follower's suggestion that he use TMFS.

Fact 4: We're always here to help:

Jimmerjammer_medium

Sash, for the record, described our work as "better," but it has yet to show up as his Twitter background. Maybe it's just because the "Jimmer-Jamming" part would get cut off by the Twitter column thing. Yes, that's surely it.

Jimmer-Jamming

sounds like something Bill Cosby would say. In that same vein you could go with “Flism-Flasm” or “Zip Zop Boobity Bop”. We’ll see you next time eatin’ the pudding.

Lose the 'g', IMO

Jimmer-Jammin’ exceeds Jimmer-Jamming to me, but it’s a matter of taste, I’m sure.

And it does remind one of Cosby, and just saying that is retro, too.

Hey, remember how great those Bob Newhart talking into a phone routines were? Hilarious!

And Mort Sahl, talking about JFK? God my gut is busting right now.

Jimmer-Jamming-ly.

However, in my haste to get a working copy to Mr. Sash, I made it with the G. It would be dishonest and misleading to present a different version for our readers. THIS IS OUR COMMITMENT TO INTELLECTUAL HONESTY, PEOPLESES.

To each their own

Personally, those four months during this past football season were the most fun I’ve had as a Hawkeye fan ever. A lot of it had to do with the people who make this website run and the awesome commenters. So when I see this picture (along with others recently made famous here) , it brings back good memories of barely-avoided heart attacks following close games, the iconoclastic war Hawkeye fans waged against AP voters mainstream media to get some respect and epic comebacks.

And of course Junior Senior.

Hey

There were a few people who liked those uniforms Fry tried to introduce in the late 90’s too.

I don’t think any of them were on the team though. I wish I had saved that picture in the DI of Dwight and two others modeling the new jerseys. The expressions were pricess. Somewhere between sheer embarassment and “you have got to be kidding me is it too late to transfer”.

Minnesota has a pretty proud tradition of ugly unis, actually.

They did all-gold unis way back in the day that look heinous now and the all-gold (albeit two-tone all-gold after the sweat stains kick in) they wear now is pretty bad.

The Barnstormers jerseys have a certain goofy charm, though. I think it’s the googles on the helmets that do it for me.

That's one the saddest tragedies of the Timmy D Era, actually.

(Well, after the fact that Iowa never won as much as they seemingly should have while he was here.)

The fact that so many of the surviving pics/videos of him at Iowa in those awful unis is just sad. And, hell, even the local businesses perpetuate it — the Field House still had a “winged” Timmy D jersey hanging on the wall last I knew.
