🏈 Was Spurrier a little drunk during the filming of his coach's show?

[TerryP]

The subject came up yesterday in the sports department and while I haven't seen the show as of yet...

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>South Carolina's trying to wipe out this week's Steve Spurrier Show, featuring a slurring HBC. We've got the video: <a href="http://t.co/ZKxrJKp5dv">http://t.co/ZKxrJKp5dv</a></p>&mdash; Deadspin (@Deadspin) <a href="https://twitter.com/Deadspin/statuses/385409350875226112">October 2, 2013</a></blockquote>

I really don't care if he had a little buzz going on during the show. There were mentions of how he was red in the face, etc., during the filming and I thought "that's nothing new. Heck, the guy is on the links a few times a week so anyone would have a little flushed look."

UNTIL I see this explanation from SOS:

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>Steve Spurrier tells The State he asked for coaches show to be pulled because he was &quot;too negative&quot; <a href="http://t.co/LoPY0MU0Rl">http://t.co/LoPY0MU0Rl</a></p>&mdash; Josh Kendall (@JoshatTheState) <a href="https://twitter.com/JoshatTheState/statuses/385416741297602560">October 2, 2013</a></blockquote>

Here's your "wait a damn minute" moment.

How long have we watched Spurrier in collegiate ball? He came across our scene in 1992 and minus four or five years with his NFL stint...I guess we've followed him at least 15 yrs?

And during that time how many times have we seen him throw his own players under the bus or comment on how poorly he thought they played?!?

And now, the show was "too negative?"

If you didn't see this coming...here it is:

I'm calling :bsflag:

...not to mention his time as coach with the Bandits of the USFL. He's been on the "jerk radar" for a long time.

At least he didnt pull a Joe Namath and want to kiss everyone.:biggrin_blue:

 

[Southern Bama]

Yep...he had a few in him....80 proof truth :biggrin_blue:

 

[JoshB]

lmao damn I thought maybe people were overreacting till I watched the video... either he was drunk or pilled up (maybe both).

 

[Rolltide24]

The locals were talking about it at work yesterday. Said his speech was all slurred. Long thread on Cockytalk a out it but the thread has now been removed... He was too negative my a&$! Lol Nice excuse!

 

[TheChief]

I think he's a medium-sized drunk.

 

[XXL TideFan]

Hell I'd be drunk too if I was stuck in a place where every other word in their vocabulary was cock,

 

[planomateo]

Shocked, thought he prided himself on being that calls guy who calls it like he sees it. Lost respect for the guy if he wimped out like this.

 

[bamanaf]

Embarrassing to get called out with a buzz, but he just needs to tell everybody to get a life

 

[TheChief]

A High Life...

 

[TheChief]

He said Kentucky has "shruggled" a lil' bit". Watching the interview, I think he was the one "shruggling".

 

[Tider27]

Definitely looked and sounded the part around the 16 minute mark.

So, you're saying we should keep him around?

No. My phone glitched. I didn't write that. I wrote:

"I'm surprised Spurrier got up for that. Most drunk cocks can't."

I think the forum thought I didn't post anything and auto-added "Add content".
