Can This Be Our Theme Song?
Not sure if the guys behind this video are to the licensing/marketing stage, but when they are, we here at TRC are interested–VERY interested–in making this the Official Song and Video of The Rubber Chickens Blog. Its hard to overemphasize the level of rubber chicken awesomeness this thing communicates.
Despite the fact that I am a middle aged and slightly nerdy redneck, all I can say to these guys is “Get outta my brain!”
Things to watch for:
– Mike Hold in the throw-back uni (garnet helmet!)
– Ryan Brewer with a fencing commercial
– Big George holding his Heisman in an awkward position, not once, but THREE times
– what is apparently a bearded lady (must be a CTU fan) at the 4:15 mark.
Enjoy:
Quick Editorial Comment
Dear media,
Drop all the Cam Newton nonsense. That sort of thing is for the offseason, and will probably be resolved then and not now.
Let’s settle this thing on the field at everyone’s full, undistracted, strength.
That is all,

SEC Weekly Bowl Projections
BCS Title Game: Auburn vs. Oregon - an under-reported nugget: Nick Fairley has a Lagarrette Blount tattoo.
Allstate Sugar Bowl: LSU vs.Boise State – Sugar, Balls and Grass. And Balls.
Capitol One Bowl: Alabama vs. Ohio State – 80,000 fans spend money on hotel rooms and pork rinds making the selection committee happy, but then snooze through this completely mind-numbing matchup along with the rest of America. Tradition on display? Yes. Exciting football? puullleaze.
Cotton Bowl: Arkansas vs. Oklahoma – The Houston Nutt Bowl. Look it Up.
Outback Bowl: Mississippi State vs. Michigan State – Bizarro Dawgs against the Bizarro Spartans. Expect bizarro ratings (i.e. only measureable in the world of Htrae [NERD ALERT!])
Chick-fil-a Bowl: Anyone-But-South-Carolina-No-Matter-How-Much-We-Have-to-Torture-the-Logic (Publically, the committee will simply say “Florida”) vs. NC State.
Gator Bowl: South Carolina vs. Iowa- a long way to fall because a) The Capitol One marauding hordes selection committee loves Bama, b) The Outback has seen us enough already and would like to date around a little, and c) the marketing staff at the Chick-fil-a Bowl is immune to the genius of game birds in a poultry-based bowl.
Music City Bowl: Hey, look who ended up with seven wins! Red Lobster Cheesy Biscuits! Kentucky vs. Maryland! Exclamation points cannot rescue this boring matchup!!!!
Liberty Bowl: Tennessee vs. Houston [or somebody, we get nappy whenever Conference USA is on]. Actually a good result for the post-Kiffined Vols. At least the UT players will be scrubbed clean. That’s something, Memphis, its something.
Birmingham Bowl: Georgia vs Louisville – AJ Green spurned the hometown school for this? BBBWWWAAAAHHHHHAAAAAAAAA! /writhes on ground in unrelenting mirth.

ANOTHER Open Letter to Ellis Johnson
Gone Fishin’ – And We Might Not Come Back
Aw, who am I kidding, we’ll be back. We have to come back to our crappy jobs so we can occasionally take short vacations to beautiful places.
But as an FYI to our loyal readers (thanks Mom and Uncle Frank!) The Rubber Chickens will begin our semi-annual fishing trip off the beautiful South Carolina coast tomorrow. So the next time you hear from us blog-wise, we’ll either be SEC East Champs or Music City Bowl front runners.
Continue to follow us on Twitter, as I’m sure there will be some drunken rants as long as we can get a cell signal.
And good luck Gamecocks as we play the most important game in our history!
(T-bone edit: No, that’s not true. Please don’t listen to Buck when he writes. Please, please ignore him. Actually, if you see him on the street, take a tire iron to his leg, just below the kneecap, you know, the real boney part.)
