The Cromptonite Nation begins to stir August 28, 2007

Just like last year when Erik Ainge “hurt” his knee [Xmas comes early for the zealots], now there is another issue. The Big Orange Nation is going to a DEFCON 5 Full Meltdown. Vegas betting odds are shifting…

Jon Crompton saddle up your linebacker trapped in a QB’s body, the spirit of Dan Kendra will lead us to victory!!! Cal ain’t LSU my courageous ruff tuff mountain boy!!!

Well in hopes of channeling the General Neyland, I am going to funnel a bottle of George Dickel later today. I seem to hear someone ’s voice in the back of my mind, but unless the General is telling me to “turn that damn tv down”, I think it’s just my wife. I still think that Fulmer wins at Cal.

GBO!!!

KNOXVILLE — Tennessee senior quarterback Erik Ainge jammed the pinky on his throwing hand and might miss some practice this week, Vols coach Philip Fulmer said minutes ago.

Fulmer said he hopes Ainge will be healthy enough to start Saturday’s game at No. 12 Scary California, and he would check with trainers this afternoon to see if Ainge can practice today.

Remember what I said about toughness and Woodson being the better QB than Ainge because of Andre’s superior grit while Ainge bitches out…

I just said it again…

It’s Fulmer’s fault. In all this time “The Great Recruiter” couldn’t find a decent QB to back up Ainge??? Who the hell sits out a game because of a jammed pinky??? So what it’s on his throwing hand. If you’re gonna channel the general, then give the RB’s 40 carries combined, throw 5 passes to keep Cal’s defense “on it’s toes” and have Chavis call a hell of a defensive scheme. Would LSU or Florida sweat the fact of their starting QB being hurt??? No, because of recruiting. They have blue chip backups waiting to be called, not Jon Crompton.

I’m having a bad day and this doesn’t make it any better. It’s a matter of pride, and there’s no way an SEC team (even Vandy) should be losing to a tree hugging, hybrid car driving, blunt inhaling, pagan ass Cal team coached by sucky ass overhyped Jeff Tedford, and the WR’s that Lou Holtz said were faster than any he’s ever coached or seen. What the fuck ever. This cannot be happening…

To make matters worse, I can’t even channel Neyland because here in TX, I haven’t been able to find George Dickel. So I got a bottle of Ol No. 7 and a fifth of Jose Cuervo. Hopefully that’ll do the trick. God, if this season goes in the toilet, fire Fat Phil and bring us Terry Bowden the next day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BTW, Good Ol Rocky Top, Rocky Top Tennessee…

Someone call?

5. Kelly - August 28, 2007

Is this for real? I can’t find anything else on this story… what are the chances he won’t play?

6. Joel - August 28, 2007

I think I channelled my inner “AngryEer”…

Angry is the man

9. Joel - August 28, 2007

Why is trailer trash Tanya Harding peeking over Crompton’s shoulder??? Classic pic…

10. AtlantaVol - August 28, 2007

Remember Nancy Kerrigan getting her knee busted? Ainge got his knee busted too, do the xmas link in the post

11. Joel - August 28, 2007

Well it could be worse. At least we’re not Ole Miss:

Vindicated!

“t’s Fulmer’s fault. In all this time “The Great Recruiter” couldn’t find a decent QB to back up Ainge???”

I agree Joel I mean look at this story? That money could have purchased a lot of gifts to give to recruits, like the Florida ones, who were “just joking”.

[...] now this is funny… The Cromptonite Nation begins to stir Loser with Socks [...]

I am sporting some tall timber today! Talk about getting a woody!

Jon, opportunity knocks. Show all of these homophobes just what kind of man you are. You are the greatest quarterback to ever wear the orange and white. Go out and fight the courageous fight. Prove to these homophobes that they should be rooting for you.

Hey Mama! Do you have any more stick pins to put in that doll?

17. LL - August 28, 2007

Since I’m a Gator, I don’t know the history behind why some UT fans don’t like Crompton. Fill me in.

18. Jai Eugene - August 28, 2007

LL

There is nothing wrong with JC. He reads this blog BTW, think overzealous fans that want a mountain boy instead of a west coast kid as QB.

Heath Shuler part deux

19. LL - August 29, 2007

Cool. Thanks, Jai.

“Would LSU or Florida sweat the fact of their starting QB being hurt??? No, because of recruiting. They have blue chip backups waiting to be called, not Jon Crompton.”

If Florida loses Tebow, they are A-1, top-notch, over-the-top screwed. In all their great years of recruiting, they have nobody to back him up.

21. Joey Mathews - August 29, 2007

Heath Shuler? More like Heather Shuler. The fans want someone like me!

22. Ears Whitworth - August 29, 2007

Shuler, was pretty good on the hill

23. td - August 29, 2007

word is cromp and his gf are having major problems might not have his head in the game

24. Sarah Jessica John Parker Wilson - August 29, 2007

She better be hot

25. LL - August 29, 2007

“If Florida loses Tebow, they are A-1, top-notch, over-the-top screwed. In all their great years of recruiting, they have nobody to back him up.”

Are you kidding me? Cam Newton is Tim Tebow “Lite” and we have John Brantley and Bryan Waggener. Granted, none of them are on the same level as Tebow. But with all the weapons on offense, if one of them had to play they wouldn’t be asked to do too much.

Come on folks! Lets talk about whats really important…..the bands!

If Tommy Tuba goes down, it means that the band will be without a great talent and the xylophone player might get a tad too excited.

Get with it people!

This just in - Crompton is actually pretty good. I am not a “Cromptonite,” but I thought I would share that information with others, just in case they had a different understanding.

28. Taco Bell Soft Tacos - August 29, 2007

Crompton is UT’s answer to Tim “890 SAT” Tebow.

29. Joey Mathews - August 29, 2007

I’m hoping if Crompton starts he can regale us with another 11 of 24 performance like LSU last year. Makes me salivate.

30. td - August 29, 2007

hes mentally not been in practice all week!!
could be trouble!!

check out facebook samara cate

31. Weezy - August 30, 2007

JamesD, your ignorance is ridiculous…Crompton was the #5 rated QB nationally in his recruiting class coming out of high school…ignorant retard

32. Cromptonites don’t need Viagra « Loser with Socks - August 31, 2007

[...] Holy shit, reading this fluff piece on Tennessee’s backup Quarterback Jon Crompton [link]made me throw up in my mouth. A lot of ignorant hillbilly fans would replace Ainge with Crompton in a New York minute. Now we might not have a choice. As posted yesterday [link]. [...]
