Jack “The Assassin” Tatum passed away today at the age of 61. The former Raiders and Ohio State defensive back was known for his punishing open field hits on wide receivers. He crushed Sammy White of the Vikings in Super Bowl XI, knocking his helmet off in one of the best NFL Films clips I can remember. Most infamously he delivered the hit that paralyzed Darryl Stingley in a preseason game.
While nobody doubts the toughness of modern NFL defensive backs, Tatum represented on of the last of the menacing old guard that patrolled the defensive backfield. ESPN has an informative obit here.

With North Carolina beating Boston College this afternoon, the Tigers are guaranteed a trip to the ACC Championship game and a rematch against the Georgia Tech Yellowjackets.
According to Tigernet,
A paper form to request tickets for the ACC Championship has been mailed to all IPTAY Donors. The deadline for these requests is Friday, November 20, 2009. If the demand exceeds the supply allocated to Clemson, limits will be placed according to IPTAY priority points
The championship game has sold out of the allotment that was set aside for the 50% discount promo code “ACC1” advertised on TigerNet.com several times in the last week. However, Newhart said he can still offer a discount to Clemson fans if they have a group of 10 or more. He can be contacted at 727-825-3293 or dnewhart@raysbaseball.com.
Tickets may also be acquired through Ticketmassa via this link.
UPDATE: The official CUAD link to buy tickets and travel packages with likeminded Clemson fans is here.

Shaking the Southland, the now-SB Nation affiliated Clemson blog (we wouldn’t join up at SB Nation despite multiple requests, so the settled on the only Clemson blog they could get) that was formerly Clempson or whatever the hell they were called, has once again ripped off our Dumb Shit on series with a post they call Dumb Shit on TI, even down to the name (and yes, we’ve covered TI in the past so don’t start). It’s not even the only thing they’ve ripped from us, since we started Danny Ford is God we’ve been heavier than the average Clemson blog on Danny love, even coining the term “Dannystalgia” which has been jacked by them. Hey, that’s fine, we don’t have it copyrighted or anything, but damned at least throw us a link and a hat tip. We’re honestly flattered to influence some of the fledgling Clemson blogs. The Sporting Gnomes were big influences on us in the beginning, were great to us from the start, and we’ve always thanked the guys over there for inspiring us. So I leave an understandably irked comment calling STS on it, and what do they do, but ban me and call me a bitch for calling them on it. So, intellectual theft (not the first time) isn’t being a bitch, but calling someone on it is. Delivering a little bit of criticism is being a bitch, but outright banning someone for one comment is totally not being a sensitive little bitch.
I get it, they have little original content humor-wise to post so they just bite EDSBS bits and LSUFreek gifs (at least giving them credit), and have more than once blatantly ripped our shit. Me calling them out bothered them not necessarily due to the phrasing of the comment, but due to the spotlight it cast on their glaring lack of originality in that department, so of course instead of a bit of manning up or introspection they knee-jerk ban me. Sure. But, again, I was acting like a bitch, not them.
And another note, we invite them over here to give their side of the story, we won’t ban them. We’ve never banned a commenter who wasn’t a Russian spambot. We don’t consider dissenting opinions “acting like a bitch.” In fact, we sort of think that not being able to take a bit of criticism is textbook bitchassness.

“William Trevor Adair is charged with two counts of assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature, according to warrants.”
Here’s the story as it’s gone national now… to be fair a lot of really good college stories of mine happened around 2:30am on a Saturday on Catawbah Road…

This week TigerSACK has pulled even with the previously thought to be unbeatable Andrew Reed. Yours truly is now picking to save face. ClemsonFan and Mr. Bowden’s Opus have been dropped for not picking. Things are starting to heat up. It seems that people need to start picking with a SENSE OF URGENCY.
