Still trying to catch up, but it appears my twin is still missing.

Did anyone use the "report post" option to let the mods and Freak know that he's locked out? Has a mod or Freak come on here?

I saw that someone posted a hey, Freak in a post, but that's not exactly a bat signal...
 
Been away for a coupe hours and come back to all this! Question...Had Atlanta Vol in fact posted as Paul Vol or any other poster here?

Grudometer checks...75%

Soon!
 
Am I the only one concerned about this dinner tonight? I've watched enough GOT to know that parties/weddings typically mean death. Here's hoping this isn't our version of The Red Wedding! Watch your back non-Haslam boosters!

So in this scene, you've just had the turkey dry out and now they're all eating. What is being presented to them looked good on the outside, but actually wasn't good at all.

The turkey has to represent a coach, but which one? And who is Ellen in tonight's dinner? Fulmer? So while others are eating up on food that isn't good, Fulmer will be pretending to do the same, but actually rejecting it.

I'll be here all week if anyone has any questions, haha.

That’s extremely deep lol! I like it!
 
Ok, time to chase Behr with objects.

My Gudometer will stay at no higher than 25 until it pegs out on one end or the other.

Ellen - Davenport
Clark - Currie
Eddie - Haslam
Squirrel - future coach that we can't seem to catch

I went back and found bubba’s post. Interesting. He also Changed his location to Tlön. I googled it and it gave me a headache.

I knew my sci-fi nerdism would pay off at some point.

Quote from Wikipedia about Tlön:

Told in a first-person narrative, the story focuses on the author's discovery of the doubly fictional world of Tlön, whose inhabitants are completely idealistic and live imaginative lives. One of the major themes of Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius is that ideas ultimately manifest themselves in the physical world...

As if someone like Beav couldn't be more cryptic, Bubba's Tlön location is even worse than his Runic stuff.

It could be very positive or very negative.

“One of the major themes of Tlön ... is that ideas ultimately manifest themselves in the physical world.”

So like Peyton is going to play the part of Lord Bolten and cut Phill's throat to appease the Lancaster's aka Haslams. Well I have already seen worse this past week.

I've figured it out. She is not eating whats being fed to her just like we shouldn't believe all these rumors about Miles or other coaches. And then when we land Gruden, everyone will be like "You serious Clark?"

So does this mean Phil is having dinner with Bev tonight or god forbid its a sign that uncle Eddie is coming to dinner in the form of Mike Leach

Clark thought he was getting a great bonus, then he didn’t. Eddie took action, and Clark’s boss came around and Clark got the bonus.

Ok, so here's what I've got from reading up on Tlön. Which by the way, is one of the most obscure freakin' pieces of work you could choose to reference as there is almost nothing on the interwebz that isn't heavy heavy philosophy.

Here we go:
The book is essentially about a guy, who reads about a mythical place and that place soon becomes his reality, even though it's completely false.

The flip side to this place being mythical (and completely perfect I might add,) is the founders of the world, who have in secret for centuries been creating the place, have their ideas released to the public in small tidbits, one by one, until eventually, Tlön becomes the world to everyone, not just the subject of the story.

We can take this as: Gruden started as a myth and has become reality OR Gruden was always a myth in our heads and Bubba & company pulled off the biggest troll of VolNation.

It's really a 50-50 split. Though, it coming from Bubba who has been very pro-Gruden, working in the background kind of guy, I think he's implying the former, but again, it could be trolling.

Edit: I've edited some of this to make more sense/put more commentary.
