So, John Adams, writer extraordinaire, has written, you know, a football article, because well, there’s nothing else going on right now in UT sports. It was a typical Adams article, i.e. full of words, but not much substance or meaning. I’m thinking the very tame article might have to do with the fact that Mr. Adams is currently in hiding in a cave next door to Bin Laden, scratching out his articles on camel hides after being run out of town by the good Coach. The best I can deduce, Adams’ idea of “researching” an article is comprised of the following process:
- Think of a good subject for an article.
- Think of some relevant material pertaining to #1’s subject
- Come up with a compelling storyline to research and interview
- Just write a post about firing Fulmer
- If #4 blows up in your face, write an article spelling out in words, every SEC team’s football schedule for next year.
Granted, we’re worse at writing compelling articles than third graders, but we don’t make a living doing this (in fact, we pay for the honor of hosting, and writing crappy articles for you to read). John Adams gets paid to write crappy articles, and that really sticks in our craws.
Remember what I wrote before about not reading Go Vols Xtra comments because it’ll make you dumber? Well, Adams had better hope he followed my advice, because the comments on this article are pretty, well, not nice? I think now would be a good time to bust out the good ‘old Hate-O-Meter 84,000 just to see what the needle is doing. So without further ado…

Enjoy your weekend kids. If you see John Adams anywhere, try to avoid his drool.
