The 2009 ESPYs thread

[JLEW1818]

Sam is up for an award....

(I know the ESPYs have already happened, but don't ruin it for the rest of us!!)



ESPN @ 8 P.M. Sooner time

[Eielson]

Is Samuel L. Jackson the main guy? The last few main guys have sucked.

I mean, Justin Timberlake? Seriously?

[JLEW1818]

Jackson is the host.... Timberlake was funny last year i thought, he ripped everybody....

again we think the opposite!! haha... I think Jackson is a horrible actor... snakes on a plane.

[OSUAggie]

Snakes on a Plane is a f'ing classic.

:mad:

[JLEW1818]

lol, until that dude gets his thing bit

[JLEW1818]

so far so good

[Eielson]

Oh man, they had a short clip for Wayman.

[JLEW1818]

TO in da house... i hate him

[JLEW1818]

"Mark Sanchez i really am proud that you left USC, to go to the NFL.... that's a big pay cut"

LOL

[JLEW1818]

Best Championship Performance = Michael Phelps

[Eielson]

"Mark Sanchez i really am proud that you left USC, to go to the NFL.... that's a big pay cut"

I can't believe ESPN let him say that. That was awesome.

[JLEW1818]

LOL, and the mike phelps thing " you really "smoked" the competition "

[JLEW1818]

any Lebron yet? aint seen him

[JLEW1818]

"Tim Tebow what would Jesus twitter?"

[JLEW1818]

Biggest Upset = USA soccer team over Spain


(should have been Oregon State)

[CBUS_SOONER]

Marissa Miller.... SMOKIN

[OSUAggie]

That skit wasn't terrible... but somewhat unnecessary.

[JLEW1818]

Breakthrough athlete = Matt Ryan

[Eielson]

That skit wasn't terrible... but somewhat unnecessary.

That's pretty much what I thought.

[OSUAggie]

I guess my give a **** meter for the Super Bowl is a helluva lot lower than the rest of the world's.

[sooner59]

Jesus H. Tebow got best college athlete or something like that.

[JLEW1818]

wow Obama is coming up

[Eielson]

Jesus H. The Right Reverend Tim T. Messiah got best college athlete or something like that.

Makes me want to puke.

[JLEW1818]

ditto... gay glasses... just gay

[Eielson]

Serena does not like Jackson's jokes at all.

[JLEW1818]

i just don't think he's funny... the tebow twitter and phelps jokes were funny

[JLEW1818]

just keep Obama out of sports please.

[CBUS_SOONER]

wow Obama is coming up

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

[Crucifax Autumn]

Wake me when something Sooner relevant happens.

[CBUS_SOONER]

Comeback award = Tom Watson

[JLEW1818]

boring boring boring

[Eielson]

Comeback award = Tom Watson

For next year if he had won.

[CBUS_SOONER]

just keep Obama out of sports please.

Amen!!! He has bigger issues to tackle.

[JLEW1818]

I believe this was taped on Wednesday

[CBUS_SOONER]

So... I need OU/Texa$$ tickets... What the best way of going about getting them?

[JLEW1818]

hour before kickoff

[CBUS_SOONER]

How much will i be paying

[JLEW1818]

100-200 would be my guess


wow this story really sucks, cool speech in South Africa..... kinda boring and stupid.

[CBUS_SOONER]

thanks. Yeah pretty boring

[sooner59]

100-200 would be my guess


wow this story really sucks, cool speech in South Africa..... kinda boring and stupid.

Normally I would agree, but this year may be a bit different. With all of the implications, this year could be the most anticipated OU-TX ever. ESPN already has it as the game of the year to watch this season. They hate us for edging them out last season....among other things. We hate them for being them....as well as flying planes and beating us 3 of the last 4 years now. Its #2 vs. #3 in the nation, a bitter rivalry, and the winner has a strong chance at playing for the title in Pasadena. This is the most anticipated regular season game since OU-Nebraska in 2000 IMO. Might have to pony up a pretty penny for a ticket this year. Gameday will likely be there. But its worth whatever asking price is, because 92,000 people will be able to say they they were there, and I will be one of them.

[sooner59]

YES! Team USA defeats Tebow! Is it ironic to call this a miracle?

[JLEW1818]

USA swim team!!!!!

if tebow would have won that i would have protested!!!

yah.. i think i will be able to find a ticket for 200, come 10:45 A.M.

[sooner59]

That Peyton Manning bit was pretty funny. Manning was great on SNL. Never thought he would have been such a funny guy.

[CBUS_SOONER]

Peyton is great in all his commercials. The chic from HOUSE is HOT

[sooner59]

yah.. i think i will be able to find a ticket for 200, come 10:45 A.M.

You're probably right. People get desperate come game time. But before that, tickets will probably be ridiculous. Man I can't wait for the season to start.

[JLEW1818]

yup... just gotta be patient when buying tickets... some sellers start freaking out, and will end up going lower than usual .

[JLEW1818]

Crabtree, no questions asked.


WOW COMPLETE BULL ****, NOT GIVING THAT TO TECH

[CBUS_SOONER]

A lot more steeler fans voting... Santonio Holmes is your typical dumb thug from to$u

[sooner59]

Yeah Tech was big, but the Super Bowl will always get the votes.

[CBUS_SOONER]

Don Myer coming up should be excellent. Heard him speak at a coaching clinic about three yrs ago. The man is solid

[Eielson]

That coach was awesome.

[sooner59]

That was good stuff.

[JLEW1818]

yup

[CBUS_SOONER]

Guys,
He was even better at the clinic. Spoke for two hours and it seemed like 15 minutes. Coaching basketball at a small college and accomplishing what he has is amazing.

[JLEW1818]

WHY IS LUKE WALTON THERE, HE IS GARBAGE!!!

[sooner59]

WHY IS LUKE WALTON THERE, HE IS GARBAGE!!!

He stole Chad Ochocinco's ticket!

[CBUS_SOONER]

Because his dad is Bill Walton

[JLEW1818]

He stole Chad Ochocinco's ticket!

LOL

[silverwheels]

Not that I really care that much about the ESPYs, but I caught the last part of it and I don't see how the Lakers deserved to be Best Team over the Steelers, Phillies, Penguins, or the Lady Huskies. Whatevs.

[JLEW1818]

plead your case!!!

[silverwheels]

Well, if you go by "best team compared to their competition" then it's the Lady Huskies and there's no question. They destroyed everyone they played en route to a perfect 39-0 season. If you go by "best accomplishment" then I'd have to go with the Penguins for winning games 6 and 7 of the Finals, including a fantastic performance in Detroit in the final game. The Steelers had a great season and won an exciting Super Bowl. The Phillies won a World Series title just a year after they became the first franchise in American professional sports history to record their 10,000th loss. Plus I just plain don't like the Lakers.

[JLEW1818]

me don't like Lakers either

[goingoneight]

Apparently Michael Jackson did. Him and Magic were some KFC-eatin' fools.

[Eielson]

If we had to pick the most dominate male sports team then it would have to be UConn, but they were playing against girls so it doesn't count.

[JLEW1818]

i picked Lakers

[sooner59]

Baziiiiing!
