Florida State held a press conference on Wednesday, making public its appeal against an NCAA penalty demanding the program vacate any football victories achieved with academically ineligible players via its recent academic scandal. Things went well for the first half hour until school President T.K. Wetherell turned into a cartoon character with red eyes and steam coming out of his ears. The public was then witness to an administrator dropping four-letter words and a bizarre, sarcastic sabotage plot against Florida and Tim Tebow.

Unsolicited, Wetherell declared, "Now, we understand all the rest of it. We've heard [Ft. Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel writer Mike] Bianchi over there saying, well, hell, 31 wins don't count anyway because they were at some dips**t school."

Wetherell was referring to football coach Bobby Bowden's dubious 1-AA victories at Samford (previously Howard University) before arriving at Florida State. Things only got better from there.
