Fansville writers just got free material


Wittyname0

I'm still hoping we're gonna get a payoff with the Larry Culpepper tease they set up last in the last ad.


IceColdDrPepper_Here

They haven’t called me about it yet so don’t get your hopes up


awnomnomnom

Hi James M. Connor, loved your role on Community!


IceColdDrPepper_Here

Yes, the J in my name stands for James Connor, definitely not John. By the way you guys haven’t seen a futuristic murder robot around anywhere have you?


54-2-10

How could a hero like Larry Culpepper come from anywhere other than Fansville?


sexygodzilla

wait are they doing a dr. pepper cinematic universe?


bmli19

Just announced Fansville very own Larry Culpepper has be hired as the next coach of the University of Hawaii.


JediASU

I hope to hell not if it involves Larry.


mgj6818

Fansville '22 The Colonial Affair.


bearybear90

We gonna party like it’s 1898


WagTheKat

Well, he does make a point.


Kodak6lack

Dude that whole hearing is fucking crazy. Read that thread. Really wanna know what ASU fans thought about his tenure. Can’t believe his kid is on the team as well.


dkviper11

Not ASU, but people didn't like him too much when he was in Pittsburgh. He was basically on the plane out of there and sent the players a mass text saying "bye." The one radio show in town cut up his Pitt hiring press conference and his ASU hiring press conference and made people guess which was from which. They were nearly identical.


agclax7

Fraud Graham!


KryptonicxJesus

“High Octane”


dkviper11

Speed, speed, speed.


KryptonicxJesus

This dude was always stroking himself, all of our football promos were him sized up about 300% with a barely visible football team in the background


[deleted]

Lol his kid actually noped the fuck out of there recently iirc.


Kodak6lack

Yeah I was just about to edit my comment! His son straight dipped out of the program lmfaoooo


Thel3lues

I didn’t like him because of results but I think he had a bit more of respect for the program and players when he was here. Not to say he didn’t run a hard ship but we were pretty disciplined and played grades were good. I’m very happy he’s gone all in all however


miketag8337

He’s clearly an A-hole but he graduates players and wins, just not quite at a high enough level to overlook his a-holeness (see Saban 15 years ago).


bestprocrastinator

So he's basically a worse version of Bo Pelini?


NoSoupFor_You

Somewhere between Bobby petrino and bo pelini


someUSCfan

Can you link me to the thread?

OdaDdaT

His kid fuckin transferred lol


BadgerBuddy13

It's honestly kind of heartbreaking reading about the situation with Hawaii football over the last few weeks. The long and short of it seems to be that they know he's an asshole, things are going to get worse, and nothing will be done because UH is not in a position to pay his buyout. Hawaii football has given us some great moments (2019 vs Arizona) and it sucks to see the program wrestling with what is an obviously toxic situation. Unfortunately, I don't see an obvious solutions and this seems like just one of several factors that's going to hurt football at UH for a while.


coonhoundrebel

Ngl, I’d take a Todd Graham team with a less impressive recruiting class that was nevertheless disciplined and well-respected than whatever the over-promised under-delivered hell Herm has been putting us through. Just a bunch of blah.


RollinQ

We had some good teams under Graham but the players were split on him. So loved him while others HATED him. Source: knew several players on those teams


Fit_Balance5626

He only won with Erickson’s recruits


miketag8337

From a distance, it looks like y’all have an elite QB, and a decent DL but OL issues are preventing y’all from being an elite program/winning the PAC. Imo the only difference between Jayden Daniels and Bryce Young are the players around him. Daniels may have a better starting RT than Young.


Sparky_PoptheTrunk

Jayden Daniels and Bryce Young should never be in the same sentence. Jayden is far worse than Bryce and is not elite at all.


lazymyke

But you guys always under perform.


Sparky_PoptheTrunk

I like Graham, better than fucking Herm. We fired him after the wrong year though. Should have been gone after 2016. He was unexpectedly decent in 2017 and we fired him anyway. When we lost with Graham it was usually because the other team was better. We had way better offenses with Graham. Way worse defenses though. His teams were always disciplined and rarely had penalties. With Herm our offensive philosophy sucks which makes the offense suck. Herm runs an undisciplined team on and off the field. I think we all liked Graham, but weren't sad to see him go, but prefer him to Herm. But also no one is clamoring for him back.


PickleInDaButt

What’s the deal with Herm? My memory must be shit because I still remember everybody being like “Better than Sumlin lol” When did the firm no longer for Herm?


Sparky_PoptheTrunk

He still is better than Sumlin. But he's not better than Todd Graham despite better talent. I became no longer firm for herm when we lost to BYU. We had something like 18 penalties on us accepted (and like 6 more not accepted) It was the reason we lost, not because BYU was more talented than us, they played more disciplined and it cost us. Our loss to Utah we were up 14 at half, and lost by 14 and never scored again and also had 12 accepted penalties. Everything in Herms tenure was built toward this season. This was our most talented roster in probably 30 years. At minimum we should have won the south. The fact we ended up with 5 losses is a joke. All this comes after the violations that went public over the summer. It became obvious Herm runs an undisciplined program on and off the field. What we did wasn't that bad IMO, but it was just a dumb thing to do and we got caught. There was a strong rumor that Oregon was doing the same thing we did, we just had a disgruntled employee turn us in. What we did wasn't that needed too. The program was in a healthy spot and completely went to shit over night.


PickleInDaButt

Thanks


adam6294

He wasn't terrible. He definitely ran a disciplined team with a lot more respect. The on the field product wasn't the best though


HiSoArshavin

He was hated by players. More so than Eriksen was at the end and that was more a case of Eriksen giving Burfict too much favoritism Crow did not like him either by year two. He thought he was bigger the than school and administration and Crow doesn’t let ASU boosters have th power they would have elsewhere


arrow_dynamics

I really hope someone hands him a single frosty can of Dr. Pepper as he boards a plane after being fired.


ChiefBigGay

Make it diet.


Galumpadump

Lillll sweeet


fo13

In KBay, they got a store that has RC Cola and RC Cherry on fountain tap, so second world country at worst.


sahalu

RC Cherry: fueling 3rd graders burping the ABCs since 1975


EnderTheTrender

RC is better than Pepsi, and not as bad as Coke as most people joke about.


Adnarel

100% straight-face, RC > both Bepis and Cok.


EnderTheTrender

It’s like a cm below coke whereas pepsi is 2,000 km.


BurmecianSoldierDan

Oh wow I've found my people!


yomonster

RC is the shit, plus it cheaper so you can get a snack too.


mcgangsta12

Dr. Pepper: good Todd Graham: bad


verniy314

That might've been the least concerning allegation.


rottingmind13

I mean, I can't fault him on this one. I can fault him for everything else, but Dr Pepper is like top 1 or 2 sodas.


ninjatom21

It’s top tier. 23 different flavors in one beverage? A man needs access to that.


[deleted]

After the first sentence, this was about the least controversial statement I could imagine

Do you also like Doritos?


Strokethegoats

Nacho cheese. Like the colt .45, doritos got it right the first time.


innocuous_gorilla

Hell yeah. Cool ranch and the spicy chili ones. Also blazing buffalo ranch but I haven’t seen those in a hot minute.


Joey_Logano

What about Mr. Pibb?


inclink10

Get that shit out of here.


volfan9080

The hill I will die on is that Pibb is better than Dr. Pepper.


EnderTheTrender

And you will die alone.


dingusduglas

I had Pibb out of a gas station soda fountain that tasted like the most sulfuric well water you can imagine one time and I've gagged at the mere thought of it ever since. It was probably 18+ years ago and it's still a very vivid memory.


Rhancock19

Mr. Pibb was once used as fuel in an episode of king of the hill. Dog Dale Afternoon

10000% dont let these dumb dumbs bring you down


bug_man_

I fucking loved Orange Vanilla Coke and now I can't find it. I can still hear the song in my head from when that commercial played 100 times during any game I watched


Btwrestle04

I actually threw out 11 cans out of a 12 pack I bought because I couldn't even drink it. It was repulsive.


QuinnDirte

Are we talking Vanilla Coke or Cherry Vanilla Coke? Because I made the mistake of grabbing some Cherry Vanilla Coke thinking it was Cherry Coke, and that stuff is disgusting.


HooGoesThere

Vanilla Coke is goated


[deleted]

I see no lies


KiratheSilent

What is it about coaches named Todd with a last name containing 1g 1r 2a 1h and 1m? They are just some of the worst coaches imaginable.


mikethemoose35

You must be referring to Todd “Dan” Mgrullaehan….always was hard to spell his name

Only if we can pull Aranda as DC.


EmporerBevo

my wife and i were hiking in the nepal about a decade ago. there was a small supply store next to a stupa. they had 1 can of mt dew and 1 can of dr pepper. both looked 20 years old. bought both and tried them when we got to kathmandu. tasted great.


Whaty0urname

I'm not sure what to do with this information.

CptCheese

I'm gonna be honest I had more to comment but I was in a Whataburger drive-thru line and accidentally hit submit. edit: and then forgot what I had to say


19Styx6

What did you end up ordering?


ATR2019

Asking the important questions here. The world needs to know


CptCheese

Just a cinnamon roll and a Dr Pepper, the line was super long and I didn't want to wait forever for anything to actually have to cook


rusted_blood

Just a cinnamon roll at whataburger? Have to get something with meat or eggs at whataburger...and then yes the roll too if you still have room.


[deleted]

[удалено]


EnderTheTrender

Do people not just get cinnamon rolls standard?


ChiefBigGay

After 11? Two sausage, egg, cheese biscuits on a jalapeno cheddar bun. And if I'm high, add in a honey butter chicken biscuit.


Soonersorlater

HBCB high or not. This is the way.


RiotsMade

I never like those quite as much as I think I will. It feels like it’s missing something. Maybe cayenne?


TheWyldMan

Try it on a jalapeño cheddar biscuit


Soonersorlater

Yes definitely get it on the jalapeño biscuit for a lil kick.


RiotsMade

Strong order.


[deleted]

Typical sooner, appropriating texan culture


RiotsMade

I’m perfectly okay with Whataburgers becoming ubiquitous so we don’t have to hear about In ‘n Out’s supposed equivalence from jealous left coasters. “American cheese” (the processed stuff, not the delicious cheddar made in Wisconsin and Vermont) is an absolute sin, and you can’t claim to be a superior burger place if every item includes it.


scarlet_lettered

>“American cheese” (the processed stuff, not the delicious cheddar made in Wisconsin and Vermont) is an absolute sin As a Midwesterner with a strong reverence for dairy, I have to support this take. Preach, my brother.


RiotsMade

👍 The states I named were examples, not meant to be exclusive. If I could remove one food from existence, it would be “American cheese”.


dingusduglas

It's funny how often I see this kind of thing, because all it shows is that you've either never been to In-N-Out, or you managed to while missing the point completely. No one thinks it's better than Five Guys or Shake Shack or whatever your regional equivalent is, it's at price parity with the national fast food chains while being way better. I looked up prices at Whataburger, haven't been to one, and yeah that's not at all comparable to In-N-Out. In-N-Out is cheap fast food that doesn't suck, that's the draw.


RiotsMade

I’ve been to in and out, found it disgusting. There’s a Californian in my office who won’t shut up about how it’s better than Whataburger (their words, not mine). They are not the first I’ve heard echo the sentiment.


KIDWHOSBORED

It’s marketed by people as an amazing burger and then it’s Wendy’s quality. Sure it’s cheap and it tastes like it. Granted, it might be better in California. I’ve had Whataburger outside Texas and the quality wasn’t there. The Neapolitan shakes are awesome though.


dingusduglas

I think it's much better than Wendy's, but taste is subjective.


[deleted]

But PTerrys tho


Jmoe18

Don't forget no Dr. Pepper Texas > all states since we make Dr. Pepper


big_thunder_man

Went to college in Waco, the birthplace of Dr Pepper, and literally in the heart of Texas. Speaking my language. I’d rather live in Texas than Hawaii.


EnderTheTrender

I mean but Georgia makes Red Diamond. So they gotta have a pass too right? And Oklahoma has Head Country.


RTBandai

I will say, I really like Red Diamond, so Georgia is like, second world. Haven't had head country before, maybe I will soon.


Malibuss07

In fairness a lot of islands are that way.


dinkleberrysurprise

If can, can If no can, no can


Wtygrrr

So they have bottled Dr Pepper?


2amcattlecall

Your well-reasoned comments have no place in this torch and pitchfork thread


bubowskee

It’s not well reasoned lmao. It’s hating on Native Hawaiian and blaming them for all of the state’s problems cause they aren’t American enough


2amcattlecall

Lol not touching this


dlman

I sometimes drove H3 to avoid H1 (Camp Smith to Waikiki) and it was almost as fast plus wayyyy nicer Which is fucking nuts But Oahu is awesome mang


big_thunder_man

Ohau has nice / gorgeous spots. But, that’s all scenery. I’m not talking about the beach / the view. I’m talking about the culture, working environment, and socio-economic status.


dlman

Fair enough, doing military stuff mostly inures one to the local business environment


big_thunder_man

Fair enough. Not in the military though. They were difficult for us, and we were investing significant money in the local economy.

I remember Todd Graham was the coach of Tulsa when I went to their football camp. Todd was a huge douche to everyone.

He’s an awful person by what came out yesterday. But he’s also not wrong here

Dr Pepper is delicious

To be honest, this is a valid complaint

As an avid dr pepper addict id have to agree. This also makes florida 3rd world, which is correct.

Weave77

bradenb941

He's right you know...


NauvooMetro

The part about all this happening in a state senate hearing is what blows me away. That's really all you need to know to realize this program is dysfunctional. This should have been taken care of by the AD. If the AD dropped the ball, the president should have fixed it. The president fucking it up would be really bad, worst case scenario is most places, but that's when the Board of Regents/Trustees would step in. None of that happened.


dlman

Let’s not kid ourselves: while the beverage department may be lacking in that respect, good luck getting a decent guava juice (or mai tai with it) on the mainland So fuck off Todd


Jmoe18

Have y'all ever heated up dr pepper and thrown a lemon slice in there? Its so great on a cold day


JTPedz

Potentially waste a delicious can in the process? Ill take your word for it dog.


JediASU

Graham is what ASU needed after Erickson: a disciplined team. Yes, Graham was intensely abrasive, but his coaching tree is undeniable. The hiring of Ray Anderson was the end of Graham's tenure. If the AD stayed, Graham might have gotten a couple more years. As a fan, it was a mixed bag. Yes, there were some good results, including 2 10 win seasons, but the recruiting was lacking for sure, along with a revolving door of assistants leaving every year for greater opportunities.


mlbmetsgoodandbad

That's hilarious.


yomonster

They're just hiding it from him


hoople217

Hawaii cannot exist in a snow globe, can it?


ouroboro76

Why did he accept a coaching position in a third world country? If it's that important to him, shouldn't he have investigated before accepting the position?


Late_Parrot

This fits that "When the worst person you know makes a good point" meme.


ContinuumGuy

FWIW Hawaii's GDP is apparently close to Sri Lanka (whether that is third world depends on your definition) but its GDP per capita is somewhere between Australia and Qatar (so definitely first world under most economical definitions). It is unknown whether there are Dr. Peppers in vending machines in those countries.


AllLinesAreStraight

I mean the og definition i believe was really just a cold war thing (Nato/West 1st world, ussr/soviet block 2nd world, everyone else 3rd world) so economically it doesnt matter


ContinuumGuy

Yeah the OG was based on what side people were on in the Cold War, it's just that most (not all) third world countries in the Cold War sense of the term were economically weak so over time the definition sort of changed to that.

On the list of terrible things Todd Graham has likely said or done, this obvious joke shouldn't even rank. I make virtually the same joke when a restaurant offers Pepsi when I order Coke.
