OT: I love the SEC

Attempt to pull an Oedipus on an opposing player and your penalty is sitting a half against one of the weakest teams on your schedule. Nice job, Urban Meyer.

He tried to kill his father and have sex with his mom?

Yes, attempted murder and incest is only worthy of a 30 minute game time suspension. If he attempted to murder his father and then have sex with his father's dead body, that would be a whole game suspension.

A pretty weak showing from a guy that I respect and expect a lot more from. Eye gouges should result in an ejection and automatic one game suspension, especially this one. Either way, Spikes just lost about 5 million dollars in lost draft position.

Branchinator fucked up is all.... he picked the wrong sexual perversion play. Brandon Spikes didn't try an Oedipus. Brandon Spikes tried an Equus.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equus_(play)

Dysart gives Alan a placebo "truth pill" and revealing a tryst with Jill, begins to enact the event. Jill, who had taken an interest in Alan, had asked him to take her to a pornography theatre. While there, they ran into Frank. Alan was traumatized, particularly when he realized that his father was lying when he tried to justify his presence in the theater. However, this occurrence allows Alan to realize that sex is a natural thing for all men - even his father. Alan walks Jill home after they leave. However, Jill convinces Alan to come to the stables with her. Once there, she seduces Alan and the two start having sex. However, Alan breaks this off when he hears the horses making noises in the stables beneath. Jill tries to ask Alan what the problem is, but he shouts at her to leave. He begs the horses for forgiveness, as he sees the horses as God-like figures. Dysart has stepped in, and fills in the blanks of Alan's thought, and also speaks for Equus. "Mine!...You're mine!...I am yours and you are mine!" cries Equus through Dysart, but then he becomes threatening: "The Lord thy God is a Jealous God," Equus/Dysart seethes, "He sees you, he sees you forever and ever, Alan. He sees you!...He sees you!" Alan screams, "God seest!" and then he says "No more. No more, Equus," and blinds the horses with a hoof pick , whose eyes have "seen" his very soul.

Brandon was trying to Equus.
