The wrath of Eru

[Gandalf]

needs to descend upon Missouri, the cocks and Vandy. Normally, we would expect to have a strong showing against our next three opponents anyway but due to circumstances (only slightly) beyond our control, we must make an example of them this year.

It needs to be such a horrific beatdown that their players (and fans) get counseling for reoccurring panic attacks. So gruesome that hardened men in Nashville, Columbia MO and SC hide their womenfolk and small children begin to weep and cover their ears when Rocky Top is heard.

The foot must never come off the gas except to rest our own players from the slaughter. This year, the flayed carcass of our remaining opponents is our entry ticket into Playoff Valhalla. So they should know its not personal but their writhing remains and eviscerated entrails are just the entry price so that we may seek our rightful place in January. The great longsuffering Volnation demands their sacrifice.

And in return, we swear to obliterate the pretentions of whatever Western opponent they put in front of us on our way to a rematch with Georgia, where it is fated that we should steal their crown this year.

Being a Tolkien fan myself, I know who Eru is, but this may go over some folks heads.

I don't know who Eru is. BUT, as I've often been told, GOOGLE (Duckduckgo for me) is your friend. It exists for those who want to learn, not those who don't or are too lazy to learn.

Tolkien lore, Norse myth, and Christianity (from the gifs) all in one. Solid.

We will hand the seers of the playoff committee the bleached bones of our final three opponents. Then, we can be sure the omens read in our favor.

What the hell is a ERU. Speak common southern working man’s English please.

 

[Concept]

I think they just need to play the game and take what opportunities arise, and it will work out. All this talk of needing a blowout is a mistake and creates unnecessary pressure. Our resume is strong already, and if we play our game we will do quite well.

There's that wizard talk we talked about.

 

[voldurham]

Let us invoke the spirit of Tulkas and smash our enemies and cast their evil remains into the Void. They cannot be allowed to stand in the way!!

 

[VFL-82-JP]

Honestly, Gandalf Greyhame, I would've guessed you would start more at the Manwe level. Going straight to the Big Guy, that's bold.

But I'm with you.

Go Vols!

Let's send their spirits beyond the gates of this world, And curse their House like the Doom of Mandos.

That depends.

Go Vols!

Manwe, Cirdan and Mandos are hosting a BBQ this weekend in the grey havens so they are a little pre-occupied. Thought I would ask Illuvatar to start the music with an appropriate tune:

(go ahead and sing along - We will, we will ROCK YOU!)

Eru Emu?

I gave a like because I love the enthusiasm. I agree with everything besides resting our own players from the slaughter. I say let the players stay in and put on more slaughter till there’s nothing left. We need to show the committee that we are who they thought we are before last week.

I like the way you think!

But I would not see them to the Void, for they were not made evil, nor are they such vile creatures as inhabit the lands to the South in Tuscaloosa and Gainsville. Rather they should have our pity and be consigned to the chasm of endless mediocrity, an eternity of 6-6 or 7-5 seasons without hope of ever breaking 10 wins.

Admittedly, however, this curse and doom was already set on Vandy long ago, and the dejected fans despaired of life and withered away to such a state that now merely achieving a winning season would require more help than even the Valar are granted to assist.

That depends.

Clearly your fantasy tropes are more along these lines LOL

Careful, some might take that statement to accuse the southern man of being too lazy to google or too ignorant to care.
