BC Gonzo Pix of the Week: Week 9



BC “Ghostly” Gonzo Pix of the Week
Week 9 aka “Weak of a No Rotten All Hallow’s Eve”

In my time-honored annual tradition of paying homage to the Greatest Holiday of Them All, I give you a creepy Halloween version of the weekly picks.  This year, you’ll get bits from some of Gonzo's Top Horror Flicks of All Time. Ok, you rotten bastards - enjoy this week’s winners, which include killer clowns, treacherous caretakers, mutant inbred desert folk, and washed up pirates….

Fornit Some Fornus!

   Words of Wisdom, Lloyd. Words of Wisdom!

5 Star Platinum Pick:

Oklahoma St -2.5 @ Texas Tech: In The Hills Have Eyes, a nice suburban family is tortured by psychotic inbreeds who live in the desert of the American Southwest.  I actually saw these tortilla-tossing loonies when I went to the Cotton Bowl in 2006, and they’re called Red Raider fans. Poke supporters better hope their pick-up trucks don’t break down after their win in Lubbock. 

5 Star Picks:

Navy -7 vs. S. Florida: The only scary things about The Blair Witch Project were the acting, the camera work, and horrible 1990’s lingo (“Heather, dude, you like totally lost the goddamn map. So not cool”).  What was also frightening was my temper after paying to see that travesty in the theatre. The Bulls might not get lost in the Maryland woods, but they will get washed away by the Fighting Semen. 

Georgia +2 vs. Flore-duh:  In The Sixth Sense, the little brat informs Bruce Willis that “I see dead people”.  In the unreleased sequel, the terrified boy visits the World’s Largest Cocktail Party in Jacksonville and announces “I see fat people”.  He also hears drunken white trash barking like dogs after the UGA upset.
                 
4 Star Picks:

Ball St -1 vs. UMass: a Tech: The most memorable scene in The Exorcist is a queasy Linda Blair projectile vomiting on an unsuspecting priest. That’s actually happened to me twice: once when I dined at Red Lobster and the other time was when I was forced to watch a battle for last place in the MAC.  I can assure you that’ll never happen again. Well, except for Endless Shrimp week… I’m not made of stone you know. Fighting Testicles win in a rout.     

Penn St -5 vs. Illinois:  The Shining is only the greatest movie of all time, and in one of the most famous scenes, little Danny makes the ill-fated decision to go in Room 237, where he is viciously attacked by a ghost.  To his credit, his only other option was jumping in the shower with Jerry Sandusky.  Anyway, I see Perv Sate blowing this open in the 2nd half.  “Mr. Sandusky, you were the caretaker here..”

3 Star Picks (shits and giggles picks):

Florida $t -17 vs. Syracuse: Southern Cal: I’ve been terrified of clowns ever since I watched the opening scene of It, when Pennywise the Clown rips the arm off of a little boy.  That is why precisely why I can never watch Jimbo Fischer the Clown talk in a press conference.  His Noles might not be homicidal, but they put on a Clown Show for the Ages last week against Tech. This week, they curb stomp the porous Orange.  

Cal +6 vs. Southern Cal:  Johnny Depp’s first major role was in A Nightmare on Elm Street. The only thing more frightening than the original movie was how quickly his career has spiraled downward since 2005.  Kind of like the Southern Cal program, eh?  Rodney Peete must be rollin’ over in his grave….    

Ok For Now…..

The Fixer's WEEK 9 Makin' Bacon Selections



WEEK NINE


MINNESOTA +13½ vs Michigan- Too bad Harbaugh can’t be the one who’s retiring because he’s about to drop dead, this media obsession with him has gotten to the point where they’re all going to be speculating that he’s jumping right back to the NFL. And enough with his goddamn pants…

MARSHALL -17 @ UNC Charlotte- According to a VERY reputable source, the city of Charlotte changed its name from “Hitler City” just after WWII in order to avoid some very bad stereotyping. But they underestimated the will & desire of the dirt-spitting rednecks of that area, because they’ve done a great job keeping hate & persecution of minorities alive and well on Tobacco Road. If Billy Graham still knew he was alive, he’d be smiling…

GEORGIA +3 vs Florida- How many trailer trash kids are conceived in the alleyways of downtown Jacksonville during this decadent weekend? If you want to know the answer, turn on any “reality” show… Somewhere in the panhandle, there are 10yr olds watching “Party Down South” and dreaming of one day getting pregnant or into a brawl on that show…

KENTUCKY +8½ vs Tennessee- And speaking of trash, I’d stay off the freeways of the Volunteer & Bluegrass states this weekend, or you may get your car splattered with the urine of some Ricky Bobby who’s too methed out to stop the car to piss. “Sun Roof??? More like Fun Roof!!!”

STANFORD -12 @ Washington St- I actually saw some mouth breathers on that tweet site complaining about how that Saturday morning vomitfest football show on that four letter sports channel wasn’t going to broadcast from Pullman. They’re the same people who think the GOP debates are going well…

BALL ST -2½ vs UMass- I’ve held out on any references to my favorite holiday of the year simply because I want to scare the shit out of kids as I hand out boxes of raisins to little twerps in order to be able to say that I’m not contributing to childhood obesity and diabetes. Coca Cola & McDonald’s on the other hand, just pay off some scientologist to lie to your faces…

SOUTH CAROLINA +17 @ Texas A&M- So it sounds like Coach Summerfield promised Skyler or Kyle or whatever fucked up name his dipshit parents gave him, a bunch of playing time so he wouldn’t go to Austin. Now everyone’s involved in some soap opera drama bullshit and these coddled quarterback bitches are unhappy and mad at each other. Methinks Kevin, or Kelvin or Devin, whatever, will bolt to coach in the NFL the first chance he gets…

FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL -3 @ Florida Atlantic- The Battle For Lower Flor-Duh is upon us, and the 57 mile trek the Panthers’ fans will make up to Boca Raton only takes 2½ hours on Miami’s exquisite highway system. They’d be better off driving 2 miles from campus to Miami International Airport and flying the fuck up there… Meanwhile the U has to drive basically the same distance for all their home games because they’re all idiots…

BC Gonzo Pix of the Week: Week 8



BC Gonzo Pix of the Week
Week 8 aka “Weak of Back to the Future”

Great Scott!  Back to the Future Week is upon us, and every water-head media outlet has penned something about the eerie predictions from Back to the Future Part II that are taking place this week in the Foul Year of Our Lord – 2015.  While everyone is sick of hearing about the predictions that came true – such as tablets and Miami beisbol -  most of you don’t realize that Doc Brown and Co. ominously projected other lesser known events that never made the final script.  Did you know he fortuitously foretold that the fabled Third Saturday of October would forever be held on the Fourth Saturday of October. Wait.. Wut?  What a goddamn travesty.  And this week’s winning selections feature bits that never made it out of the original draft. (Christ – am I running out of material in Scotchtober??)

    It's Football Time in Tennessee!!!

5 Star Platinum Pick:

Tennessee +15 @ Alabama: In the original script, a young Parkinson’s-free Marty McFly saw a world where UT and Bama would collectively go through 9 coaches after the dysfunctional bourbon-soaked daze of Johnny “Rummy” Majors and Bill Curry.  Uncanny!  He also saw Seargent Carter and the dirty Vols keeping it close in Brian-Dennehy Stadium (coincidentally named after our beloved fat character actor from the ‘80’s) for the 2015 version of the Third…err..Fourth Saturday of Scotchtober… 

5 Star Picks:

Missouri -3 @ Vandy:  In 1989, Doc was the first to call for the fine Midwestern state of Misery’s flagship institution to move to their rightful place in the SEC, umm.. East.  And of course, his jokes about Ferguson were a regular riot (and not just a shot in the dark!).  Anyhaught, Gary Pinkel drunk drives his way through a laugher in the Muzak City, but I’ll be dead in my grave before I ever recognize the State of Missourah….

Arizona -7 vs. Washington St:  Marty was truly a visionary – foreseeing a day when a young Sorta Rican from West Virginia would revolutionize football with his fast-based spread attack.  Now, Rich Rod is spreading chlamydia to U of A coeds with his Dick Rod, but his Desert Swarm should mangle the Krimson Kougs in Tucson…
                 
4 Star Picks:

Florida $t -6 @ Ga Tech: Doc might have incorrectly envisioned Tallahassee being Amerika’s first “outdoor penal colony” by October 23, 2015, but little did he know Rapist Winston would declare for the draft early.  Don’t worry though - local bumpkin Jimbo Fisher and the local Po Po are doing their best to make this happen in the near future.  Noles destroy the bees in the Dirty.   

La Tech -7 vs. MTSU:  After visiting 2015, Marty saw that Biff Tannen was uber-successful, polished businessman who won at everything in life. He knew he must go back to 1955 and ensure Biff would be the bumbling, mouth-breathing idiot he would eventually turn out to be.  This destiny gave us Skip Holtz….

3 Star Picks (shits and giggles picks):

Utah +3.5 @ Southern Cal: Thank god Robert Zemeckis cut this scene from the final script…
Marty: What religion will I be in 2015?
Doc: Married with kids…
Marty: Aww. A devoted father and husband?
Doc: No, a pedophile Mormon…

Anyway, the Mormons might slowly be migrating en masse from Utah to L.A., but the Trojans hold their ground this year.

Toledo -14.5 @  UMass:  Another faulty prediction from Back to Future was that Toledo would be returned to the State of Michigan in 2015.  Oh well, at least folks in the Wolverine State can savor any piece of good news they can get these daze.  Pocket Rockets continue to roll.  Marcus Camby must be rollin’ over in his grave…  

Ok For Now…..

The Fixer's Travel Reviews of Week Eight



WEEK EIGHT

CINCINNATI -12 vs UCan’t- I’ll be in Cincinnati in a few weeks for a wedding… well, actually, I’ll be in Dayton… Now I’m really depressed…

TOLEDO -14½ @ UMusn’t- The only reason Toledo exists is because some assholes decided to dig a ditch so their shit would flow somewhere else…

F$U -6½ @ The Institute- Since there’s nothing at all wrong with Atlanta, I’ll let it rip on Tallahassee: There’s no more horrible kind of trash than Panhandle Trash. And any police force that would arrest George Clinton for smoking crack in the Shell parking lot deserves all the hate in the world…

TEXAS A&M +6 @ Ole Piss- Oxnard is one of those towns that actually has some kool people but they’re overshadowed by the sounds of angry rednecks wanting ethnic cleansing and more Golden Corrals.

COLORADO +2½ @ Nice Beaver!- Corvallis is one of the most intelligent cities in the country, and they show off this accomplishment by hosting one of the yearly Kinetic Sculpture Races…

TEMPLE +3 @ East Cack-a-Lackie- Hurricane Floyd decimated Greenville back in ’99, it wouldn’t have been so bad if everyone didn’t just lay on their sofas watching “Freejack” instead of getting stuck in the rising water…

OHIO U -3 @ Buffalo Chips- Ah, the age old argument as to when & where some obese yankee dumped some fatty chicken pieces in hot oil and covered them in butter and pepper sauce… Since then every jabronis in the upstate area claims that their great uncle Vinnie was the originator of high cholesterol…

CLEMSON -6 @ Moons Over my Hammy- I used to do some work with the Port of Miami, and their director used to offer me FREE cruise tickets. Needless to say, I still have my spleen & none of my children(that I know of) have been thrown overboard due to my addiction to gambling on Jai Alai or stone crabs…
