Nebraska coaching legend Tom Osborne, acting as interim athletic director, took time out between an inhale and an exhale to fire coach Bill Callahan. Some highlights from Callahan’s Cornhusker stint:

1 – Day One. Callahan announces he’s going to “flip the culture.” Cornhusker fans now realize he wasn’t talking about moving from the triple option to the West Coast offense, but from success to hellish, fiery chaos.
2 – After going 5-6 and immediately breaking Nebraska’s streak of 35 straight years with a bowl game, Callahan says, “I never look back.” Not that bad a move, especially when you lost by 60 to Texas Tech.
3 – after a 30-3 loss to Oklahoma, he called Sooner fans “F*%$ing hillbillies.” Sooner fans use newly installed indoor plumbing to flush Callahan next three years as well.
4 – And of course, the Emmy-winning performance pictured here, aimed at an official during another loss to the f-in’ hillbillies. Hold your breath, folks - no word yet on where Callahan will be “flipping the culture” next.

Former Atlanta Falcons’ quarterback Michael Vick spent Thanksgiving 2007 in jail as a result of the plea bargain agreement in his recent dogfighting case. Prison on Thanksgiving… where the word “stuffing” has a whole different meaning… where “gravy” is so not what you think it is… where “peel the yams” has nothing to do with food… where “mincemeat” does not refer to a pie… where “white meat” is not just requested at dinner time… where “regular basting” is most often executed in the showers… where “quotation marks” make any word or phrase a surefire sexual double entendre. Think I’m kidding? “Cranberry sauce.” See? You don’t want to admit it but for a split second you thought of something disgusting that could happen in prison and be called that. “Piece of cornbread.” “Sauce boat.” “Butterball.” Ladies and gentlemen, we have stumbled into the first real, true bit that literally “writes itself.” Send your own personal Thanksgiving/Prison sexual double entendre to: feedback@sportalicious.com
