OT: BCS Teams as Drugs
Fantastic list done by EDSBS matching up lots of the BCS football teams to the drugs they represent. Some of the my favorites:
"OHIO STATE: Weed. Wildly popular. Gets smoked by SEC football players in bowls."
"MINNESOTA: Fetanyl lollipops. First you get numb. Then your teeth fall out. Then you die."
"SYRACUSE: Milk of Magnesia. Doesn't really do anything except make you shit your brains out."
What they said about Michigan - "MICHIGAN: Opium. It's the 1930s intellectual's heroin. A gentleman's crack, if you will. (Warning: may cause lassitude, grandiose visions, and slow perception of time passing.)"
Enjoy

Indiana was my favorite.
"NOTRE DAME: Laudanum in a lead glass jar. Crippling and old-fashioned because that's how we've always done it."
Good ol' Tincture Of Opium, good for pain relief, cough suppression and managing the runs. Somehow, that sounds about right for South Bend. Good call, EDSBS.
This all seems too familiar...
this list is hillarious, Minnesota... HA
The whole article was a great read.
While we may quibble over Element vs. drug, it should be obvious that it be quick, lethal and hypnotic.
Being asociated with Ohio is disrespectful to weed.
This cannot possibly be OT. It is about some teams Michgan plays, and is too funny.
If you try some Colorado, some Penn State, and some Nebraska, with a little luck you just might wake up to your wish.
I laugh my ass off every single time. The originality and drop-dead hilarity of the casual observation that things are less interesting outside of football season makes me lose all self-control.
Can we add all varieties of smug, "Football season can not get here fast enough" comments to the FAQ list of banal responses frowned upon on MgoBlog?
It's really hard to make a list that big without reaching, and there are more than a few reaches there, but I there are enough zingers (like the regionally appropriate one for Wisconsin) that make up for them.
I'm sure your intentions were good, but that is just a creepy post.
BAYLOR: Lambada, the forbidden dance, which is still basically all of them at Baylor.
Honestly, I didn't know what half of those drugs are.
Perfecto.
State as the green fairy. Gotta love it.
A reference to Khat.
Khat contains a monoamine alkaloid called cathinone, an amphetamine-like stimulant, which is said to cause excitement, loss of appetite and euphoria
USC: Just classic prescription methamphetamines. The kind classy rich people took in the 1950s. Side effects may include being awesome
Also, people who take it think they are better than other drug users because "they've got a prescription" for it.
Does that make Alabama SSRI's?
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a saltshaker half-full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers... Also, a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether, and two dozen amyls. Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get locked into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge, and I knew we'd get into that rotten stuff pretty soon.
Correct
