I think some folk's sarcasm meters are seriously in need of an overhaul.

Sorry, I thought that with the demographics in here everyone would get the references. I used what I thought would be a recognizable lyric to those of us of a certain age to point out the absurdity of Tennessee's actions. Further, I stand by my belief that UConn being exonerated is an example of Blind American Justice.

Fairview I was rolling on the floor laughing as the reference was flying high above the various posters involved.

The real question for Geno:

Have you rehabilitated yourself?

'Cause I think this is a movement.

Of all the versions of this I have heard from Geno, this was the most watered down version and probably reflects what he has said a few times in the last couple of years: He's so over it. Tennessee is far in the rear view mirror and he knows he does no one a service, and himself a disservice, to get into the Pat thing in any detail at all.

Ironically it is the absurdity of Tennessee's actions that heightens the emotional investment and anger on the part of UCONN fans which now makes humor like your reference impossible to apply.

I thought it was very funny.

Actually it's a great analogy. And once I recognized it for what it was I found it hilarious.

The whole point of the song was that the local constabulary treated the incident like a major crime but what it came down to was a small fine and having to pick up the garbage. In the CT-Tenn incident 37 pages of charges became one secondary violation in the end. If they were to redo the movie I would cast Cornelius in the Obie role.

I admit to losing my patience when I read a post accusing UConn of everything short of the Lindbergh kidnapping, but in reality it's a small bunch of true believers who, in trying to perpetuate that myth, have become a parody of themselves.

 

[Uhuru]

My friend Obie is in law enforcement -- he's a pretty straight shooter. He tells me when they start dishing the trash it will be a real massacree.

Well...I do know that Opie's Dad was in law enforcement.

That is because you have a very refined eclectic sense of humor.
