Taylor's letter arrives

| | Comments (73) |

UCLA received the binding national letter of intent from junior college offensive lineman Ryan Taylor from Tyler (Tex.) Junior College. Taylor will enroll in the spring, but since the school has the signed national letter of intent, coach Rick Neuheisel can comment on him.
So, I expect to get something from Neuheisel about Taylor later today.

Brian posts at 11:26 AM. How long before one of VB's minions rolls in with a non sequitur?

BruinFBBB Author Profile Page said:

I'm fairly certain that the office plant, mini helmet, and junior college gpa are not affiliated with VB in the minion sense. Instead, they were created by others as a means of poking fun at young VB...

UB, AB, QB, and RB, WR, & the rest of the UBTA are more minion-like right?

Or is that what you meant? If it is, then VB's minions have already commented and you're asking a weird question...

Thymoid said:

So Presley has enrolled for the Winter quarter, and Taylor is going to enroll in the Spring, but what about Brehaut? Is he going to enroll in the Winter or Spring?

VB Author Profile Page said:

Amazing. People get mad that I "take over every thread with my comments and cronies," yet the topic of conversation is STILL about VB even when I don't post. You guys are weird.

Secondly, the office plant, cat, blackberry, BBQ grill, etc are NOT VB.

And there is no person by the name of AB, QB, or WR. There is only UB, OB, PB, EB, VB, GB, JB, DB and RB(uau).

VB Author Profile Page said:

And BruinFBBB, would you like to tailgate with us one time next year? I'm dead serious. I want to meet you. I want you to see that I am a good guy. Even Dohn and Painter made there way out to the UBTA. Come on, BruinFBBB, whaddaya say?

VB Author Profile Page said:

Anyway, regarding Ryan Taylor, he better not go riding ATVs with Sheller next summer. pffff...

I'm off to our office Christmas luncheon. White Elephant party. Guess what VB bought to exchange...

UB (Ultimate Bruin) Author Profile Page said:

UB is nobody's minion!

BruinFBBB Author Profile Page said:

I can see myself having a brew with you next year VB. The chances of it happening increase the more you stop acting like Dohn's groupie and inviting him golfing though.

Say hello to RB and WR for me...

UHB (UltimateHugeBruin) said:

white elephant gift, hmmmm....

I'd say an autographed picture of Dohn, but I know you'd never part with that.

I'll have to get back to ya!

UB (Ultimate Bruin) Author Profile Page said:

WR?? Who in the heck is WR?

UB = Ultimate Bruin (VB's dad)
VB = Video Bruin
PB = Prodigal Bruin (VB's cousin; UB's nephew)

These three are the regular posters here from the UBTA.

Other UBTA members:

OB = Oldest Bruin (UB's bro; PB's dad; VB's Uncle)
EB = Emotional Bruin (VB's mom; UB's lovely wife)
DB = Designer Bruin (VB's Wife)
JB = Jarhead Bruin (UB's younger son - in USMC Boot Camp as we speak)
RB(uau) = Redhead Bruin (uless against Utah)(PB's wife).

So, who the heck is WR?????

UB (Ultimate Bruin) Author Profile Page said:

Wow! UltimateHugeBruin ??? OK VB, now I have alter egos cropping up! (Although UB is unparalelled, inimitable and incomparable.)

Soon, I guess there will be UB's Office Plant, UB's Blackberry, and UB's Cat.

Poor Dohn.

Brian,

Do you know how many players we can enroll early? How many left over scholarship spots do we have from last year?

Brian Dohn Author Profile Page said:

Brehaut is coming to UCLA in the spring. I believe UCLA has three spots to back-date to the 2008 class.

Anonymous said:

God, what a waste of time and disk space these comments have become.

Time to turn them off, Brian.

Anonymous said:

I'm guessing that since you are all family that you have each other's email addresses.
That means you can all talk to each other privately through group emails and leave this blog for discussions about UCLA athletics.

I'm honestly asking you all to just please leave your posts to such topics.

VBs Cat said:

cant we just use one for the whole family??
AB-Annoying Bruins

And someone please clean my litter box :(

TimmyD Author Profile Page said:

I love these comments. It makes everything so much more interesting.

Bailey Author Profile Page said:

Poor Dohn.

LAWYER JOHN said:

Poor readers.

At least I stick to FB topic of the post. Except this time.

BruinFBBB Author Profile Page said:

Disk space is so cheap that it really cannot be wasted very easily...

VB Author Profile Page said:

I have no probem with talking about football... You guys are the ones who bring us up when we aren't even here and then make fake screen names in honor of us. You guys need to grow up.

Yeah, if you're 15. Which is probably the mean age of VB and his/her clones.

Aussie Bruin Author Profile Page said:


Posters like VB, LAWYER JOHN, et al, pop up on all sorts of boards. Like viruses, they infect the boards, take them over, and ultimately destroy them.

Good luck, Brian

I smell weakness said:

VB, I challenge you and your clan to only talk about football and basketball for one week.

No tailgates, no office party or vacation updates, asking where other family members are and anything personal.

I don't think you and your gene pool have the restraint.

VB's Genes said:

Oh we do, we just don't want to...

VB's Jeans said:

We actually don't have much restraint but it's not like we're trying to hold a stallion back with this zipper, if you know what I'm saying.

Jay said:

Man if you don't like these comments SKIP OVER THEM!!! Don't cry about them, then you are really wasting your time. STOP CRYING.

UBTA: Keep the comments going, as Dohn Corleone would say "they give me a chuckle". Also please update your site a little more. I like it. Maybe some recipes? Tailgating Tip of the day? Lot H secrets?

To the fake VB's: You guys are pretty funny too. I think VB also thinks so as well, but only up to a point. Once we get to "VB's Q button on his Blackberry"
I think we (oopes I mean you) should stop.

VB: Do you even have a cat? Blackberry? I'm worried these people may be stockers.

VB Author Profile Page said:

I accept the challenge. I will ONLY talk about football and basketball on this blog for a week. Nothing personal. Starting... NOW...

VB Author Profile Page said:

I shall answer Jay's personal questions. Only because he asked. After that, however, nothing personal for a week.

Jay,
I have 2 cats, no blackberry. And for the sake of the blog, I shall answer no more personal questions for one week in accordance with the challenge I have been presented.

p.s. I will update www.ultimatebruin.com ASAP. I didn't think anyone was even going to the site, so I didn't bother updating it.

VB's Stalker said:

Although I am not considered a "stocker" I like to "stalk" VB.

VB's Office Plant said:

Three guesses on the White Elephant gift. Here is a big hint. I am missing a couple of sticky buds.

The Ghost of VB's Cat said:

Do the not so recently deceased get to be included in the "Clan"

Thanks

UB (Ultimate Bruin) Author Profile Page said:

To All:

VB really gets under your skin, doesn't he? While VB has agreed to limit his comments to FB and BB for one week, believe me, that will not stop all of these VB putative alter egos.

UB, on the other hand, genrally talks sports, but will never agree to anything restricting his free speech. Only Dohn and the Daily News have control of that on this private blog. Barring a barring, I am who I am.

Not VB but an incredible re-creation said:

I am unclear on where I fit in the whole clan thing.

VBs Huge Nose said:

awesome VB glad you updated the website.
Now everyone can see us


UB's Eyes said:

I like male "rear ends"!

Reading this shyte is like stumbling into a late night Tupperware party...mindless drivel with tipsy girls trying to out-claw each other. I know this is the 'dead time' but can't some informative b------ come up with a bit of useful info? I want to know about the team, not about some b------'s blackberry or kitty litter box.

VB Author Profile Page said:

I agree, Aussie Bruin. Not my fault these guys are being stupid.

BruinBurd Author Profile Page said:

Honestly,
We should all get along as fans of the Bruins and only be bashing the $UC people. Not other Bruin fans. We need to stick together. In my mind UB VB and the others can't be fanatical enough. Bleed blue and gold. It's ok with me!

VBs Huge Nose said:

Not sure what everyone expects from the comment section. Dohn Corleone hardly responds in this section anyways, VB turned it into his personal blog. So hence all the croonies/family posting


Tupperware Party Reject said:

I knew I liked this blog!

Brian Dohn Author Profile Page said:

I find it remarkable that a post about an all-star game bowl blog note turns into this. Whatever floats your boat.

Response to Brian said:

The economy is so bad that people need a break. Your blog is the best spot on the internet to get away from the doom and gloom. Everytime I visit here I end up laughing out loud as well as learning something about the Bruins.

Thanks

VB Author Profile Page said:

Dohn Corleone, you want to know how this all started? Check out the second post on this thread by "ironic poster." This could have been an intelligent thread if not for that dude riling everyone up.

BruinFBBB Author Profile Page said:

Let's not point fingers little one. It takes a village to raise an idiot.

BruinFBBB Author Profile Page said:

We all share the blame I mean.

VB Author Profile Page said:

So, BruinFBBB, you better show up next season to tailgate. I need you to marvel me with your infinite wisdom and teach me what's what.

VB's blacklight poster said:

there goes that bet, couldn't even make it 1 post without a reference to a tailgate.

VB's Lucky T-Shirt said:

does this mean we finally get to talk to a real-live woman? Not on the internet?? HOORAY!!!

Scott Wolf said:

Hey VB

Would you and the clan mind coming over to my blog and adding a little life. You have to total the last 6 days of entries to get the responses Brian got on this one entry.

Bring everyone but the dead cat, that one creaps me out.

Thanks,

VB Author Profile Page said:

Wolf? Is that really you? If you are really requesting VB to up the hit count on your blog, you must email me your request. See Dohn or Painter for my email address.

VB Author Profile Page said:

Peace out, Bruins. I'm going to add life to Wolf's blog.

The Ghost of VB's Cat said:

Figures that a guy named Wolf would have a problem with a cat. Back in the day I woulda cleaned his clock kitty style if you know what I mean.

Designer Bruin Fan said:

Just checked out VB's photo archive. With all due respect, Designer Bruin is cute. Go Bruins!

What is Dohn Corleone doing wearing a tie to VB's tailgate party?

VB Author Profile Page said:

Hey Rico Suave, DB is VB's wife. Watch what you say or else you go down.

Just Sayin' said:

@DB Fan

Respectfully agree...

VB Author Profile Page said:

[angry face]

Designer Bruin Fan said:

Just saying, with all due respect, I congratulate you. No disrespect intended.

Yo said:

VB, I need to know, did Wolf really email you?

VB Author Profile Page said:

Wolf did not email me yet. But I went over to his dead blog anyway to liven it up.

... and DB fan: I forgive you

UB (Ultimate Bruin) Author Profile Page said:

Careful, bloggers! DB is my daughter-in-law, so keep it clean and on the level!

VB, if you get Wolf's email, let me know. I'll head over to the SUC site myself.

Ultimate Bruin Fan said:

UB, you have a very nice tan and olive skin. With all due respect, you are kind of cute and very good-looking.

The Gay Troll said:

I Confess it was me not Wolfie

But wait maybe I am Wolfie

Anonymous said:

Wolf doesn't respond to posts on his own blog, it's a safe bet he doesn't for this one either.

I ain't gonna lie. Emotional Bruin is a hottie.

Jarhead Bruin Fan said:

With all due respect, Jarhead Bruin is a hottie! Don't ask, don't tell! Thank you for your service to our country. Semper Fi, brother!

ProdigalBruin Author Profile Page said:

Perhaps it is not appropriate, at this point, but I would like to comment on Brian's OP.

I am quite excited to have Ryan join the Bruin Family! Congratulations Ryan! Looking foward to seeing you contribute to the success of the program!
