Stoopsface

I was recently looking for some pictures to use on NateHeupel's great Sooner blog Boomer And Sooner to put with a couple of really good articles he's written about what sundries the Sooner Schooner is a bit light on this season. Please, go check these two out and see if you agree with his assessment.

Offense

Defense

While looking for pics, it became pretty obvious that most of the pictures one could locate featuring Bob Stoops had a similar feel. Words like rictus, maw and agape came to mind.

I realized what we were seeing was in fact...

Stoopsface.

Checking equipment:

Deciding the fate of gladiators in ancient Rome (yes, I know this wasn't how they did it):

Nobody does a better Benito Mussolini:

Even when coaching them up:

Also handy when working with pirates:

A variation when working the stellar Big 12 officials:

It appears to be hereditary:

and

and

I don't know what the fuck this is but I like it:

When realizing beating scrubs by 60 really doesn't mean anything and he should have let Texas take a crack at Florida:

And as a Texas fan, finally, the shut your mouth Bob, that's four outta five:

I invite you all to send me other great examples of Stoopsface with annotation to sailorripley AT barkingcarnival DOT COM. I will add them as I get them.

Sound bite: “Last time I checked, we’ve got 6 Big XII Championship trophies in our athletic offices!” Yes, we’ve lost 4 of 5 to Texas and haven’t won a BCS bowl since I can remember, but were still damn good and don’t you forget it.

I agree, Bobby. The lack of hardware has always been a beef with me in the Mack era. That said, I like the trend lines and I would have liked the chance to play the MNC straight up last year, though we pretty nearly pissed that away with a shitty Big 12 CG.

Anyway, the main point of this post wasn’t comparing programs, really. More just making fun of your coach whose visage on film seems to constantly be that of a fractious, constipated two year old.

We can move on to Capel in the winter who seems to evince the same donut hole appearance with regularity.

This is a groundbreaking discovery, Sailor. I’m shocked something besides donuts have not been mentioned as a possibility.

I know what Al Swearingen would say.

Swiggin? Norman. Cocksucker!

Nickel,

Groundbreaking? Stoops has looked the exact same fucking way for a decade. Calling this groundbreaking is like saying “Did you ever notice that Waldo wears the EXACT SAME THING all the time? Crazy!” Come on, man.

Amazing resemblance to Brian Doyle Murray.

Taylor:

Are you referring to Bob’s facial features, or Mike’s talent in comparison to his brother?

Well played, jones.

No one quite does outrage like Stoops. Call illegal motion on him and he acts like he just walked out to his driveway to see you taking a dump through his sunroof.
