James Vandenberg Goes Bear Hunting
Iowa quarterback James Vandenberg and wide receiver Nick Nielsen walk through a Canadian forest on a bear hunt.
This is the best idea we've ever had, Nick!
You're right, James. This is awesome.
Just two guys in Canada hunting bears.
Not a care in the world.
Not another person for mi--
Hey guys!
Hey, um...Coach O'Keefe?
What are you doing here?
Well, I heard about your hunting trip and thought I'd join you!
You thought you would join us...on a bear hunt?
Yeah, I love bear hunting.
I didn't know you'd hunted bears before, Coach.
Oh, I've dabbled here and there.
Well, I suppose you can join us.
Leaves rustle in the distance
/makes signal to Nielsen
/sneaks to the left, leaving Vandenberg and O'Keefe in a clearing
There he is!
There he is, James.
Be patient.
Take your time.
Wait for your shot.
Steady...
Steady...
NOW

WHAT THE H IS GOING ON?
I replaced your ammo with paintballs!
YOU DID WHAT?
You must stop relying on your shotgun, James. It doesn't work at this level of hunting.
I...I...
/reaches into pocket for shot
/pulls out a piece of Virginia ham
Yeah, I put ham in your pockets, too, so that the bear will come closer.
YOU'RE GOING TO GET US KILLED!
You must fight the fear, James.
You must fight it with your bare hands.
LOL BEAR HANDS GET IT?
Oh my God we're going to die.
FIGHT IT, JAMES! FIGHT IT!
GROWL
FIGHT THE BEAR!
AHHHHHH!
/runs away
YOU MUST FIGHT THE FEAR, JAMES! YOU MUST FIGHT THE BEAR!
No...no...no...
NOOOOOOO!

AAAAARGH!
AAAAARGH! MY ARM!
/sits up in bed, panting and drenched in sweat
Oh thank gosh. It was only a nightmare.
/stands up, looks out bedroom window onto Iowa City
Are you OK, James?
Yeah, I'm fine.
Are you sure? Maybe you want something to eat.
No, really, I'm...wait, who is this?
/turns on lamp
I can get you a ham sandwich.
AAAAHHHH!
AAAAHHHH!
AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!

how is the offensive coordinator of the Hawkeyes so adept at sneaking into young men’s bedrooms?

Why go to Canada?
Sounds like they can go bear and tiger hunting in Ohio.

The children asked him if to kill was not a sin
“Not when he looked so fierce”, his mommy butted in

When did Nick Nielsen transition to WR?
Was he THAT BAD at safety that even as thin as we are at that position he would be better at WR?

A lot of the movie is genius,
But the Black Knight scene is great.
And I did decide to leave it as is. The shot at South Carolina makes me laugh.

At least JVB was eaten by a grizzly...
…JC6 was eaten by a goddam black bear. A BLACK BEAR FOR CHISTSAKE!
Although JC6 was eaten by the world's largest black bear
and JVB went down to an adolescent grizzly from the looks of it.
Thanks, Dwight Schrute.

Further more
It says he pulls the trigger 6 more times and 7 new paint balls show up. Is Nielsen on a grassy knoll somewhere?
Just kidding (kinda). Great work as usual Mr. Vint.
You must stop relying on your shotgun, James

Probably more acceptable than my real surname
Since the surname is from the Irish side of the family. All the good German names are on my mom’s side.
I can’t believe I registered on a blog inhabited by the Irish.

Yeah, because the Germans couldn't drown the world in enough beer?
So the Irish had to add a layer of whiskey too it?

I polished it off on an Aer Lingus flight to the Emerald Isle in 1998
Along with 4 mini wine bottles. (My row-mate was an Irishman who had a talent in buttering up the flight attendants.)
