15 football players fail drug test per ESPN

Duff just wanted to show the mess his idol Dan McCarney inherited at North Texas.

Hey I'm ready for the bomb to drop, if it is ONLY 15 players we lose for the Insight Bowl, we'll "butt drag" the fightin' Pinkels.

Again with the butt drag reference! You're gonna incur the wrath of eddyp if you keep it up. ;):p:D
 
I thought that was a perfect titled thread and true and funny as well. Maybe you could argue wrong forum if you're a real literal type, but then Macarney does have ties to our program...so.
 
I'm not going to lie, I didn't catch the North Texa State thing and Mac connection. To be fair to Mac this story is from 2008.

No wonder Dodge got the axe. Who wants to play for a guy that doesn't allow a little "chronic?":rolleyes:;)

It was only Texas St. so not really something that you missed. They were green and white though, but maybe coach Mac can bring in this guy for the d-coordinator to straighten things out.

Loved that movie, can't tell you how many times I said "I thought you were gonna do one of these" playing flag football.

My friends and I did the same thing in pick up football games, throwing in a "OH MY GOD, FEATHERSTONE CAUGHT IT!" on a long touchdown pass...I'd also use "Well, If it isn't the by God, number 1, Texas Colts..." as a greeting from time to time.
 
So they don't release names, nor do the specifiy what drugs they tested positive for......

Fifteen North Texas Mean Green football players fail team drug test - ESPN

Does anyone else worry something like that will happen here? :D

Legendary fail, Duffman. Total BS to post something like that here and now, knowing how it would be taken. I thought you were better than that. You ought to ban yourself from HawkeyeNation, if Jon doesn't do it.

No tweeter, the real “legendary fail†is being perpetuated by our own fan-base. The game of internet telephone going on the last week or so has been down right laughable. Jon mentioned in another thread that yesterday set all kinds of records for page visits and unique visitors and for what? To get the latest juicy rumor so they could go post it somewhere else… or tweet it… or facebook it… or text their buddy….

I understand why this is a story, but I also understand all the facebook/twitter/message board stalking isn’t going to get the real story any sooner than the press conference in about hour.

Lastly regardless of what happens there the world isn’t ending. Multiple schools in the last decade have had large scale player suspensions between the regular season end and the bowl season, can anyone name more than one? This will be huge news in Iowa for the next few months, maybe longer… but in it will only be large scale until the next Cam Newton story comes out… or the next NFL fine for a helmet to helmet hit… or the next whatever….


We are all sitting in the same bathtub (wait that’s gross), and when someone throws a big rock in it the tub gets awful wavy, but those outside that tub hardly notice, and those that do forget about it cause they have their own rocks and bathtubs.

Someone joked the other day about taking their laptop down into their bomb shelter, well that’s what so many of you are acting like… Regardless of what happens the sun will set tonight, and it will rise tomorrow, and Iowa football will go on. Those of us in perspective have little doubt that KF will handle this the way he always does, fairly and with integrity. We realize there may have been mistakes made but we also realize he will learn from them and do his best to correct them or eliminate them in the future.
 
Thread of the Year goes to Duffman! Awesome! No contest!

Thanks for coming, drive home safe.

These responses are classic. Its nice to have a little fun on this board, its been awhile.

Also, why ban Duffman? I haven't seen any personal attacks on players or other posters. No disrespectful comments. He never said it was Iowa's players failing a drug test.

Greatly played and timed joke.
 
Here's the deal, anyone dumb enough to think ESPN would break a story before an Iowa media outlet deserved to be punked.
