A Complete Synopsis Of Tim Brewster's Appearance At The Big Ten Media Day

You probably recall that we tried this for his opening statement earlier today, though in full disclosure, we missed the first thirty seconds. Tonight, however, we're lucky enough to have embeddable video for his entire appearance at the press conference, and will provide a corresponding synopsis. In particular, watch the magic that happens after the asterisk below. As before, all extraneous words have been omitted.

Sounds like the Gophers are ready to compete in the BigTen this year.

And, as everyone knows, it’s all about being competitive. If you aren’t competing, then you’re not winning, and winning is why we compete.

I would have done it myself, but the seizures kicked in at about the two minute mark.

Man, how'd I miss that?

You snooze you lose around here

Awww

I’m stuck late at work and I miss a banhammer? Add that to all the fun of the slapfest over at BSD over Pryor, it’s been a good internet night.

It never gets to be easy

Soo... when someone gets banned, does something cool happen?

Like internet fireworks or maybe a little flash animation of a stick figure being shot by a zillion dudes on a firing squad?

If so, I’m tuning in for the next one.

If not… I have to say… I’m disappointed

Going, going, going, going, going, going, going, going.... Alright, I'll stop for now.

Brewster's fascination

with someone who didn’t even go to Minnesota is just weird. Ok, we get it Larry Fitzgerald hangs out in Minnesota, what the hell does that have to do with your team? This guy really, really tries to live in the reflected fame of everyone around him.

If you thought it was weird for Brewster...

to repeatedly reference Larry Fitzgerald, just wait until Timmy claims Larry’s accomplishments in the upcoming media guide.

"Our kids understand that on a daily basis you've got to compete from your job"

Well, there’s no way they learned that from Brewster.

Less memorable than Sam Okey's Hawkeye career.

Is that picture up top showing how Brewster responded when asked

“How would you best describe your chances of being up here this time next year?”

"I know you're from Middle America, and sometimes you feel like you're representing more than just a school or a conference, maybe an entire group of American citizens out there."

by Twin Cities Hawk on Aug 3, 2010 7:39 AM CDT reply actions  

I think that's why

he spent so much time kissing Fitzgerald’s ass and praising Paterno. He knows he’ll need a job in about 5 months and it’s never too soon to start greasing those wheels.

Nothing says intense competition like...

He and Fitzgerald

We’re in a neck-and-neck race to see who could wear the tackiest suit.

One thing I picked up on watching this in BTN yesterday

He is trying to get all of these big name programs to come to Minnesota and then bragging about it so let’s recap where they stand right now:
1. USC is coming to Minnesota 3 or 4 months after receiving (for all practical purposes) the quasi-death penalty. I don’t know how good USC is going to be this year, because, presumably, they have most of their players from a decent team last year.
2. Texas agreed to a series, then realized that they could make way more money not playing Minnesota and backed out (again, I don’t know this for sure, but this is what it looks like on the surface after the whole Big12 is imploding thing).
So essentially this program is such a joke that they can’t even get a big name BCS team to come to their place and kick the hell out of them. I hope they sign Brewster to a lifetime contract, because Minnesota has been pure hilarity since he got there.

A question to those of you that were actually at Media Day:

was that lady from USA Today (Marien Garcia?) actually as big of a know-nothing retarded hag as she seemed on the TV?

I’ll admit, after listening to JoePa yesterday, I thought he sounded tired. But I’d like to think that if I was a professional journalist, I would have phrased my questions better than that lady did.

Brew Stew 2.0

After watching Brewster give us in MN more reasons to be embarrassed of him and his Mickey Mouse football program (my deepest apologies to Walt D).
Was a season ticket holder for many years and even belonged to a few of the booster clubs too. The one constant is that he never ceases to amaze me – the amusement factor alone is worth following the Rodents.
To be fair Coach Brew has to work under the most inept AD in major college sports – the proof is in the results. Joltin’ Joe Maturi is in over his head – and he continues to prove that everyday – he is the leader of the Clown College known as the MN athletic department.
The anticipation of who will replace Coach Brew is one the highlights of the upcoming season. The other question is how many games they will be shut out.
Oh yah, the chatter from the Rodent Hole is that they are looking forward to having to play Nebraska every year.
