			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Two FOTBs in one week. Oh my! This time, during a segment of the South Carolina-Vanderbilt game, I turned the questions over to the FOTB and did some answering of my own.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> What do you think of the different kinds of pants the teams wear? Some have skinny stripes, some have huge stripes, some have slashing stripes.<br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> Completely irrelevant. I don&#8217;t think I was prepared for this. I will say that the big splotchy look like Oregon had on their last uniform is really ugly. I like a nice thin stripe or all solid color.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> Why does Vandy have a star?<br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> Crap. Uh, because they&#8217;re the Commodores and, uh,  a Commodore is like a sherrif&#8230; yeah.<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> That&#8217;s your answer? Nice, I can&#8217;t wait to Google that.</p>
<p>Postscript: They are named after Cornelius Vanderbilt who made his money in shipping. Commodores is an homage to the fact that a Commodore is a Navy title. Whatever.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> Can you create your own characters?<br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> Huh?<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> Like linebackers and wide receivers and cornerbacks. Can you create your own?<br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> I suppose so. A coach can create his own terminology for his system, kind of like how Oregon has a Rover position.<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> What about left side righty?<br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> First, no. Second, what?<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> A guy who starts on the left and runs to his right.<br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> So what, like a running back?<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> Yeah, that&#8217;s the running back&#8217;s name now.<br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> But he doesn&#8217;t always run that way.<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> Well, wide receivers don&#8217;t always go wide, running backs don&#8217;t always run, kickers don&#8217;t always kick&#8230;<br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> My silent thoughts: how can she make something so stupid actually seem logical?</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> What do you think about having names on the back of the jersey?<br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> For it. Only pretentious teams that think they&#8217;re better than everybody don&#8217;t have names on the back.<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> What teams don&#8217;t have names on the jersey?<br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> Probably USC, Notre Dame a couple teams you wouldn&#8217;t think of.<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> Wanna&#8217; know something? Both teams in this game don&#8217;t have names.<br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> Ah! That&#8217;s a trick question. You trapped me!<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> Just joking, only one team doesn&#8217;t have the name (she says this as the game comes back from commercial and immediately shows the back of a South Carolina jersey with name in full view).</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> If you were a defensive end, what dirty thing would you do in the pile?<br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> I think the logical thing is to grab the balls.<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong>What? I&#8217;d do a wet willy.<br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> How?<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB: </span></strong><span style="color: #000000;">Through the ear hole!</span><br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> But you&#8217;d get your finger caught in the helmet.<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> It&#8217;s better than you grabbing the balls of a player. You want to molest people!</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> Last question. What percentage of schools in the F-T double P-P&#8230;<br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> The what?<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> Whatever it is you called it (that would be the ridiculously named FBS)<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> What percentage have their costume designs by Nike, Adidas and Under Armour? And does Reebok have any teams?<br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> First, they are uniforms, not costumes.<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> I know.<br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> I don&#8217;t think any school has Under Armour.<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> They do right there!!! (Indeed, South Carolina has Under Armour)<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">FOTB:</span></strong> Haha, you don&#8217;t know anything you bitch-ass! We&#8217;ve learned so much tonight, how much Nick does not know. That&#8217;s the blog title, right there.<br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> I really didn&#8217;t think Under Armour did uniforms, but I&#8217;d say Adidas has about 1-2 schools per conference and the rest Nike.<br />
<strong><span style="color: #808000;">OTP:</span></strong> Alright, I&#8217;m done. This is over.</p>
