The Oddest Dr. Lou Segment Yet
Friday, September 12, 2008
The guests for this week's show are just fine. You've got Pete Carroll and James Laurinaitis, but everything else is just really strange. There's talk of a bullet proof vests, the week old BYU-Washington controversy and a plan to take scoring out of College Football. Yes, scoring altogether....
I knew it wouldn't be long before Lou started running out of ideas and started talking crazy. By week seven you should expect Holtz in that old school Notre Dame starter jacket, talking about a play in the 80s and reciting that "Footprints" poem. I can't wait!

My goodness is he riding Notre Dame's jock already this year. We get it Lou, you coached there and did pretty well. They almost lost to San Diego State, which in turn, gave up a crap ton of yards to basically a high school football team and yet Lou has Notre Dame over Michigan. Michigan sucks too, but come on Lou?!?
Ann, you should know by now that Lou Holtz is definitely not objective. Having him on there is almost a joke in itself.
I bet Rece Davis falls asleep with a shotgun in his mouth every night.
Rece needs to bring that shotgun to the set and shoot the person directly to his left in the face.
I don't know if his slur has ever sounded that bad. That was horrible. I could literally hear the spit hitting the camera lens.
Lou's segment always sucks and yes, his slur is really bad. During halftime, I always go into the other room to play with my baby niece and nephews.
Dr. Lou needs to start prescribing himself some meds... He has lost it.
I just want him to say "suffering succotash" and I can die happy.
" Dr Lou" actually said ND would run the table until the USC game. I think Mark May wanted to strangle him right there. I'll testify on May's behalf it was justifiable.
Lou’s already doing a regular segment, “Ask Dr. Lou” on various iterations of College Football Live, College GameDay Final, etc., in which he dispenses advice to prominent players and coaches at the same rate he used to put headlocks on referees. Last week, Tim Tebow asked the good doctor how to win a national championship, and the trenchant response included the advice, "Be significant," and "Be a good friend." Someone with that depth of insight should be money at something as obvious as picking games against the spread. Thus I’m handing over the keys to the picks column, for this week at least. So if you end up with your kneecaps busted by Monday, don’t blame me. Blame Dr. Lou.
By week seven he may have Charlie Weis asking to recommend a good moving company.
