The 2007 season will see the Mountaineer's participating in their 79th year of college football. The 2005 and 2006 seasons were arguably the most successful in Appalachian history with the Mountaineers winning consecutive national championships. Jerry Moore will be entering his 18th year as head coach. Appalachian has intense rivalries in the Southern Conference with teams from Furman University, Georgia Southern University, and Western Carolina University. Appalachian and Western Carolina play annually for the Old Mountain Jug. The Mountaineers currently have a 27 game home winning streak at Kidd Brewer Stadium, the second longest in Division I trailing only the University of Southern California, who have won 32 at home.

The Mountaineers have already gotten off to a fast start in 2007 with perhaps the biggest win in program history, a road upset of the #5 Michigan Wolverines, 34-32, on Week 1. With this win, Appalachian became the first ever FCS (formerly Division I-AA) team to defeat an AP nationally ranked FBS (formerly Division I-A) team. This victory was seen by many analysts to be one of the greatest upsets in NCAA football history.

Numerous players from ASU have gone on to play in the NFL. They include Dexter Coakley, Dino Hackett, Larry Hand, Jason Hunter, Mark Royals, John Settle, Matt Stevens, Troy Albea, and Daniel Wilcox. Additionally, players such as DaVon Fowlkes, Wayne Smith, and Richie Williams have found homes in the Canadian Football League.

North State/Carolinas Conference Titles - 1931, 1937, 1939, 1948, 1950, 1954
Southern Conference Titles - 1986, 1987, 1991, 1995, 1999, 2005, 2006

On Septmber 1, 2007 Appalachian State was scheduled to play the #5 college football team in the country and a national powerhouse,the Michigan Wolverines. Michigan was a 36 point favorite before the game. Appalachian State stuck with them the whole game. Up 34-32 with 6 seconds left to play a 37 yard field goal attempt was lined up for Michigan. The kick was blocked and gave Appalchian State the win. Never before had a Division I-AA team beat a Division I-A powerhouse that was in the top 5 in the country. This is arguably the greatest upset in college football history.

Monty Python Sketch Accidents Sketch Episode: Live from the Grill-o-mat (October 27, 1970) Writer: Actors: Eric Idle Graham Chapman Michael Palin Terry Jones Carol Cleveland

The Accidents Sketch is a Monty Python skit that first aired in series 2, episode 18, Live from the Grill-o-mat, of Monty Python's Flying Circus.

Eric Idle plays an innocent looking but seamingly accident prone man who happens to enter an establishment called 'Prawn Salad Ltd', where he, again seemingly, sets off a series of catastrophic events.

During the course of about a minute of sketch time, Idle's character breaks an expensive mirror, knocks over an ornate bookcase, fatally stabs the maid, causes the handy man to fall out the window to his death, induces an investigating policeman into a fatal heart attack, collapses the roof in on the butler who was trying to help the policeman, and finally, causes the entire 'Prawn Salad Ltd' building to explode.

The punchline of the skit is that while everyone in the sketch is convinced of the Idle character's complicity, the viewer is perfectly aware of his absolute, though poorly timed, innocence in this bizarre series of events.

Anne Elk's Theory on Brontosauruses From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

  2. ===Anne Elk's Theory on Brontosauruses===

"Anne Elk's Theory on Brontosauruses" is a sketch from the thirty-first Monty Python's Flying Circus episode, "The All-England Summarize Proust Competition".

This skit features Graham Chapman as a television interviewer and John Cleese in drag as the palaeontologist, Anne Elk. The name of Cleese's character could be considered an apt description of Miss Elk's physical attributes. The plot of the skit is that the interviewee, Anne Elk, cannot bring herself to describe the actual crux of her supposed new palaeontological theory on dinosaurs, specifically brontosauruses; she spends a lot of time circuitously leading up to the "theory of dinosaurs by Anne Elk bracket Miss brackets", making assertions like "My theory, which belongs to me, is mine." It turns out that in the end Miss Elk's new theory on brontosauruses is rather shallow, at best. Her true concern is that she receive full credit for devising this new theory stating, "That is the theory that I have and which is mine and what it is, too."

This skit was also performed on the album, 'Monty Python's Previous Record', under the title 'Miss Anne Elk'.

Arthur 'Two Sheds' Jackson

"Arthur 'Two Sheds' Jackson" is a sketch from the first Monty Python's Flying Circus episode, "Whither Canada?". Whither Canada was the first recorded Monty Python episode, and 'Two Sheds' was the fifth intact Monty Python sketch ever shown on BBC One.

It features Eric Idle as a television interviewer and Terry Jones as the "famous" classical composer Arthur 'Two Sheds' Jackson. The plot of this skit involves the interviewer, instead of inquiring about Jackson's musical career, obsessing over the origin of the nickname, 'Two Sheds'. Idle throws in such quips as, "Do you in fact have two sheds." The skit ends with the interviewer kicking 'Two Sheds' off the stage for not being cooperative.

This skit was also performed on the album, 'Monty Python's Flying Circus' under the name 'More Television Interviews/Arthur"Two Sheds" Jackson'.

Conrad Poohs

Conrad PoohsConrad Poohs is the name of an animated face in a short sequence in the TV show Monty Python's Flying Circus. He was created and animated by Python member Terry Gilliam, who actually used his own face to create Conrad. Conrad is remembered mostly for his "amazing dancing teeth", a display where each tooth in Conrad's mouth moves up and down like keys, and then in a more elaborate dance, to a version of the "Double Eagle Polka". After Mr. Poohs's performance, he receives a congratulatory letter (firstly perceived as a telegram) for his performance which is promptly taken away from him by the postman, who is apparently moving backwards in time, much to his displeasure. This is the only time that Conrad's (very short) body is seen. The letter is traced back to its sender, forming a link to the Fish Licence sketch.

For the film version in And Now For Something Completely Different he performs in public, and is booed off the stage by an unimpressed audience. He is replaced by Terry Jones with a "mouse organ".

His teeth are seen in another animated sketch, "American Defense", in which communism is compared to tooth decay

His face appeard also on Monty Pythons' single Always Look on the Bright Side of Life.

The original sketch can be seen via Google Videos. Another variant is on Youtube.

Kilimanjaro Expedition

Jimmy Blenkinsop, George Head and Arthur WilsonKilimanjaro Expedition is a sketch from the episode of Monty Python's Flying Circus "The Ant, an Introduction", also appearing in the Monty Python film And Now For Something Completely Different.

Arthur Wilson (Eric Idle), a young mountaineer, visits the office of Sir George Head, OBE (John Cleese), who is leading an expedition to Mount Kilimanjaro. Head's problem, though, is that he has a bad case of diplopia, and indeed believes there are two Wilsons when he enters the office. He must cover his right eye to confirm Wilson's claim that there's only him. Head begins filling out Wilson's application, though he repeatedly asks both Wilson and the empty chair beside him the same question.

Head then fills him in on the expedition; him and his team plan to climb the two peaks of Kilimanjaro. Wilson claims there's only one, and Head consults a topographical map of Africa to find he's right. Head then explains the expedition is to find any remnants of the previous team, led by his brother. They were trying to build a bridge between the two peaks, which was naturally Head's idea. Wilson then gives his qualifications. When he describes himself as a mountaineer, Head must look the word up in a dictionary (for some reason, he reads the definition as "two men skilled in climbing mountains").

Wilson then learns Head also thinks there are two of him as well. Head explains the team's route to Kilimanjaro, but his route mostly consists of a way from Surrey to Rottingdean, with a rather open-ended leap from Rottingdean to Nairobi and then down to Tanzania. Wilson inquires about the rest of the team; there are four other members, Head of course thinking each are two brothers. None are mountaineers and none but one speak Swahili.

Their guide, Jimmy Blenkinsop (Graham Chapman) has however worked out a route. He comes to the office, reassures Wilson about Head's double vision, and then shows the route rather physically, acting it out in the office and knocking over numerous items and a bookshelf before wandering out the door still describing the plan. Wilson is now fed up, and leaves the expedition for his lack of confidence. The other Arthur Wilson, whom the first Wilson couldn't see despite that they were sitting right next to each other, tells both clearly visible George Heads that he's still on board for the trip.

In the movie version only one George Head is ever seen, possibly because the split screen effect needed to show both of him was too expensive or time-consuming.

Vocational Guidance Counsellor

Vocational Guidance Counsellor is a Monty Python sketch that first aired in 1969. Mr. Anchovy (Michael Palin) goes to the counsellor (John Cleese) seeking a career change. The counsellor reveals that Anchovy had done an aptitude test, and that the results showed that the career Anchovy is most suited to is chartered accountancy. However, Anchovy already is a chartered accountant, a career he has done for the last twenty years, and complains that he finds the job dull. The counsellor says that Anchovy is a very dull person, and has traits such as being easily dominated which make him suitable for accountancy. Anchovy reveals that his dream is to be a lion tamer, saying that his qualifications for the job are having seen them at the zoo, and having his own lion taming hat. However, it turns out that he has misidentified an anteater as a lion. The counsellor disabuses Anchovy by telling him how fierce lions really are, and shows him a picture of a lion, which scares him. Anchovy then comes up with the idea of working his way towards lion taming via banking. As he is ranting on about it, the counsellor delivers a public service announcement about the dangers of chartered accountancy.

This sketch also appeared in And Now For Something Completely Different. In this version the counsellor's description of lions is accompanied by stock footage of a lion charging the camera, which causes Anchovy to recoil in terror. At the end of the film version Eric Idle appears as a fairy to grant Anchovy's wish of seeing his name in lights, whereupon he turns into the compère of Blackmail.

Decomposing Composers

Decomposing Composers is a song released on the album Monty Python's Contractual Obligation Album.

It is sung by Michael Palin in what appears to be the persona of Luigi Vercotti, a seedy character who appeared in some sketches in the TV show Monty Python's Flying Circus, notably Spiny Norman.

The backing to the song is actually Pachelbel's Canon in D, and in the final spoken coda, there is a medley of classical favorites in the background. It even includes an attempt to play Beethoven's 5th symphony, which keeps starting up and winding down, possibly to add to the "death" humor of the song.

After an initial spoken section where Luigi talks to his wife on the phone, he begins to sing about dead classical composers, including the following:

Beethoven Mozart Brahms Liszt Elgar Schubert Chopin Haydn Handel Rachmaninov Verdi Wagner Debussy The final, spoken coda to the song includes a list of dead composers, as follows:

Claude Achille Debussy, died, 1918. Christoph Willibald Gluck, died, 1787. Carl Maria von Weber, not at all well, 1825. Died, 1826. Giacomo Meyerbeer, still alive, 1863. Not still alive, 1864. Modeste Mussorgsky, 1880, going to parties. No fun anymore, 1881. Johann Nepomuk Hummel, chatting away nineteen to the dozen with his mates down the pub every evening, 1836. 1837, nothing.

Marriage Guidance Counsellor From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search

This page refers to a satire. For marriage guidance see relationship counseling and counselling The "Marriage Guidance Counsellor" sketch is from the second Monty Python's Flying Circus episode, "Sex and Violence". It was also featured in the 1971 spinoff film And Now For Something Completely Different. It is notable as being one of Carol Cleveland's first appearances on Monty Python's Flying Circus.

Carol Cleveland as the stereotypical "blonde bombshell" in the Marriage Guidance Counsellor sketch.It features Michael Palin and Carol Cleveland as a married couple (Arthur and Deirdre Pewtey) and Eric Idle as their marriage counsellor. The marriage guidance counsellor flirts with a receptive Mrs. Pewtey rather than give the couple advice whereas Mr. Pewtey fails miserably to react to this behaviour and stand up for himself. In the television version, a random person dressed as an American cowboy (played by John Cleese) convinces him he must "be a man," while in the film version, the voice of God convinces him. The television version of the sketch ends with Mr. Pewtey getting hit in the head with a chicken by a man in a suit of armour (rumoured that it was played by Terry Gilliam) In And Now For Something Completely Different, it ends with Mr. Pewtey getting a 16-ton weight dropped on his head.

[edit] USILA Lacrosse Polls use coaching template above

2007 NCAA Division I FBS football rankings Three human polls and one formulaic ranking make up the 2007 NCAA Division I FBS (Football Bowl Subdivision) football rankings, in addition to various publications' preseason polls. Unlike most sports, college football's governing body, the NCAA, does not bestow a National Championship title. That title is bestowed by one or more of four different polling agencies. There are two main weekly polls that begin in the preseason: the AP Poll and the Coaches Poll. About halfway through the season, two additional polls are released, the Harris Interactive Poll and the Bowl Championship Series (BCS) Standings. The Harris Poll and Coaches Poll are factors in the BCS Standings. At the end of the season, the BCS Standings determines who plays in the BCS bowl games as well as the BCS National Championship Game.

As the 2007 football season progresses, rankings are updated weekly. The team voted number one in the final AP and Coaches Polls can claim the title of National Champion. The BCS Rankings and Harris Poll do not vote in a final poll as their sole purpose is to determine who plays in the BCS National Championship Game. Other polls exist and may vote for different schools which causes confusion, especially for split titles.

[edit] AP Poll The Associated Press (AP) preseason poll was released on August 18, 2007. The AP Poll is the oldest poll still in use. This poll is compiled by sportswriters across the nation. This season was the second season since the inception of the BCS that the AP Poll was not included in the BCS formula. The AP ordered a cease and desist to stop the BCS from using their poll and the BCS complied and created the Harris Interactive Poll in response. The AP poll operates identically to the Coaches and Harris Polls, except there is no inclusion into the BCS. The maximum points a team can earn is 1650. As a result of Michigan's loss to Division I-FCS Appalachian State, the AP Poll changed its policy on not allowing pollsters to vote for Division I-FCS opponents. Now, if the Division I-FCS team has played as Division I-FBS team, they are eligible to be voted for in the AP Poll.[1]
