Dot Com Says Moody Needs to Play

Dot Com Done Did it Again

Urban Meyer’s boys were the feature attraction Saturday afternoon on ESPN as their spring game was televised live (ESPN has more reach than the BTN, right?), but all is not well in the Gator universe.

Meyer isn’t pleased with the performance of USC transfer Emmanuel Moody and would like him to do a better job of taking care of the ball, despite what nefarious internet entities may think:

“He’s not very good with ball security, and he won’t play tailback at Florida with poor ball security,” Meyer said. “He’s very talented. You saw some great runs. … He’s got talent but there’s no chance you’ll see him play regardless of what dot com says and all the e-mails I get and everything else, he will not play football if there’s a chance he’ll lay it on the ground.”

So Dot Coms are calling for Moody to play and the coach isn’t having it and we get another classic internet quote out of a college football coach. This isn’t as bad as Bobby Bowden blaming people for listening to eBay leading to the dismissal of his son, but we expect more out of such a prolific texter.

    Do you think Urban used The Google?

    Urban Meyer invented Google.

    At least he didn’t say “information super highway.”

    hmmmm…….wonder if he had something to do wit this:

    Florida’s football team last week suffered an accident with its BCS championship trophy from the 2006 national title.

    University officials confirmed that the Waterford crystal trophy was knocked off its pedestal and destroyed.

    It may remain a mystery who actually destroyed the crystal football, which shattered after hitting the ground outside head coach Urban Meyer’s office.

    Florida has already contacted the company in Kentucky that makes the base of the trophy and imports the crystal from Ireland for a replacement.

    Do you think Urban believes the internet is a series of tubes like Sen. Ted Stevens?

  6. Isn’t there always a chance that anyone holding the ball may fumble if contact is made? Is anyone fumble-proof? Goodness, even that mouthy kid on the stationary bike dropped a couple every 400 carries or so.

    Karma is a bitch.
