This video pretty much says it all.
Ok…maybe screams it all.
The best part? Mike Dubose, the lunkheaded dumbass who put UA in the doghouse with the NCAA during his disastrous tenure, is the coach at Millsaps AKA the ones who ended up standing around and getting beat.
That, and I completely crack up every time I hear the play-calling…
IT’S OVER! IT’S OVER! OH MY GOODNESS! THE MILLSAPS MAJORS ARE CRUSHED! UNDERSTANDABLY SO!
At around the 2:11 mark, listen closely. The prophetic color commentator jokingly intones…
…or start lateraling…
I’m thinking the Funcave needs a new category…
More Lateral
And for all the overseas visitors…
Yes, it looks like a rugby match. Except they’re playing in…
-
Full pads
-
Mississippi heat
-
And Mississippi humidity
So nyah!

That’s the first thought that comes to mind, after hearing the Florida Gators whine about being taunted onfield by Georgia after the Dawgs drew first blood…
Which subsequently led to the reptiles getting a good chunk of their tails chomped off by the puppies.
Hey Florida…
This is the SEC, remember?
This isn’t some PAC-10 tea party where everyone plays pattycake after delicately splashing their manicured hands around in their fingerbowls.
Georgia’s Mark Richt (the Gengis Khan of recruiting in Georgia, BTW) was ready, willing and able to take any penalty hit, which ended up being 2 unsportsmanlike calls, in exchange for getting his team fired up.
I personally think that kinda plan shows a lot more guts by doing it on the field. As opposed to engaging in the typical smack talk, swaggering, and gangsta rap ebonics that passes for media interviews from the Florida prison gang…all while there’s nary a zebra or yellow flag in sight.
Hell…
I personally think Florida should draw an automatic 100 yard penalty for every person who does that dumbass gator chomp with their arms.
Seriously…
Is it just me, or do they look like a bunch of retarded seals? If nothing else, it makes folks wearing Razorback hog-hats look like Mensa members by comparison. Which has to be a first for Arkansas, and at least one thing they can be proud of this year.

Those crazy sharp-eyed kids over at Palm InfoCenter dug up some leaked slides from an AT&T presentation, one of which reveals the following bits and bobs about the impending Treo 750 update for the red.white.blue…
- Windows Mobile 6 Professional (duh)
- HSDPA 1.8
- AT&T Entertainment (anyone really use that crap?)
- New call screen (Using this on the pirate WM6 install. This is a great improvement, especially for speakerphone use)
- Download URL = http://www.palm.com/750updateatt
- No OTA install (double-duh)
Supposedly, Treo 750s with WM6 pre-loads are supposedly in stores now, along with OS install memory cards.
I’ll believe it…when I see it.

In case you missed the presentation last week on MDM by Jason Langridge AKA Mr. Mobile, here are a few things you might like to know…
- Mobile Device Manager = Enterprise-level
- Release Date = First half of 2008
- MDM support = Requires a management client, either included in a future release of WM or installed separately
Here are some questions I wanted to ask, to make sure my ears weren’t playing tricks on me…
- Since Jason announced a new version of Windows Mobile (which you can hear at the 20:24 mark of the replay) that includes the management client would be simultaneously available with the release of MDM, are we talking Photon, or something akin to WM 6.5 (which would prolly be more like WM 5.75)? Palm has already announced that the Treo 750 will be MDM-capable in the second half of 2008, but no idea if this will mean an installable MDM client, or a whole big ROM package. I only hope that doesn’t mean the long-promised, MUCH-delayed Treo 750 update to WM6 will be nixed until MDM support is included.
- Will MDM support System Center Essentials?
- What about OpenWave’s product with the exact same name? Did Redmond purchase this from OpenWave, or just shamelessly rip off the (albeit sucky) name?
- WSUS for application deployment? Really? Given its record of unreliability, inaccuracy, and all-around suckiness, I’m thinking WSUS is a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad choice.
- How does MDM address the number one pain issue in EAS deployments? Namely, certificate support and deployment. Will this be yet another nail in the coffin of self-signed certs?
Stay tuned for the answers to these and other burning questions.

With the addition of Italy, Poland and the UK to the list this week, the Windows Mobile 6 upgrade for the Samsung i600 (the international cousin of the oh-so-popular BlackJack) has now been released for nearly every country in the free world, save…
and
If you want to know if your device has, or is slated to have, an update to Windows Mobile 6 released sometime before the next apocalypse…
There’s no better place to find out than the Funboard’s big huge list of WM6 updates.
