The Gamecocks Meet Technology
Posted by Thomas the Terrible on July 18, 2008

Yes this is a true story.
I was talking to a buddy at work yesterday about the difference between “replica” and “authentic” jerseys. Somehow the conversation veered towards how much would a South Carolina Gamecock jersey sold for. We had a standing bet of somewhere between $1.99 & someone paying you to take it as opposed to the “sale” price of a Tennessee jersey which the cheapest I found was $149.97.
So I typed in “authentic Gamecock football jersey” in the Google search box, without the quotation marks of course. And guess what the first store to pop up is? Gangstyle.com. And yes they are selling them. I wonder if I could order a Gamecock blood sect t-shirt as well.
With all the drug arrests, stabbings and gun charges the players rack up I found it rather fitting. The first store to pop up when you type “authentic Vols football jersey” is Football Jerseys & More.com.
Speaking of the Internet and the Gamecocks, Steve God Spurrier doesn’t take defeat well but he keeps trying. Last season he launched his own website at an astounding rate of $99.95 a year. Of course everyone realized that the athletic department needed to raise bail money someway so nobody questioned the price.
Needless to say the site flopped and within six months it was gone. I wonder if the 6 straight losses helped propel that in any way.
Well lucky for you Gamecock fans the Ole Ball (Sac) Coach is giving it another try, and this time the price seems a little more reasonable at $49.95 per year or $4.95 a month. Of course the other SEC coach’s websites are free…
The site will feature more inside looks at Gamecock football including the arrest and booking process. Plus it features having Spurrier miked up while playing a round of golf & construction updates on the expansion of the team’s crack house training room at Williams-Brice Stadium.
The site will feature a staple of last year’s site: the ‘Ask HB(S)C’ section, where fans type their questions and have them answered by Spurrier.
Imagine the questions that will be asked:
- “Hey coach why didn’t you have the balls to kick Garcia off the team?”
- “Hey coach will you suck against Vandy again?”
- “Hey coach Gangstyle.com refuses to give me a refund. Will you have a player place a cap in their ass for me?”
Compared to paying $99.95 a year and getting to hear the Ole Ball (Sac) Coach wheeze his way through a round of golf, $49.95 might seem like better buy. According to my sources it be easier to navigate but the Gamecocks will still suck on field.
You can go see yourself SpurrierHB(S)C.com.
This moment was classic, it ran in the paper here.

No thanks unlike people who live in Ennis, Montana such as yourself, we see no value in relationships that have a flair of incest. Keep rocking the 406 area code buddy!
