I was thinking the same thing. Where's Charlie Sheen?
Are you in here for drugs?
Why are you here?
Drugs.
I don’t know why I’m here.
Then why don’t you leave?
Why don’t you put your thumb up your butt.

So nice
I didn’t know until now, but this is the perfect kind of pregame analysis for this week.
I can’t believe you did the WHOLE movie. Seriously, you did the whole damn thing (except for Cameron James zooming in on the girl in the art). I hope spent no more than 3 hours on this.
Are you kidding?
He’s worked the Harry Potter series into every one of Iowa’s Big 10 games.

Nah - even if it was figuratively
Literally now is a synonym for figuratively, according to the Oxford English Dictionary. Yet another sign the apocolypse is upon us
Please note that the internet does not, as of yet, have a sarcasm font.
Just glad it skipped the end of the walking out scene
James kissing Coker might have been weird?
If Barta is Rooney, who’s the secretary?

I bet he and Mack have another brother named Holmes.

Also, this line.
Watson Brown is Tech’s 10th head football coach since 1922, joining the ranks of Loyall Duck, Putty Overall, Hooper Eblen, Star Wood, Wilburn Tucker, Don Wade, Gary Darnell, Jim Ragland and Mike Hennigan.
You could argue that only 4, maybe 5, of those names are even REAL. Jelly Brown should have been the Tech coach, although Watson Brown still sounds suspiciously made up too.

Gary Darnell and Mike Hennigan are just preposterous names. They can’t expect us to believe they’re real.
