FSU Unveils Its New Anthropomorphic Horse Mascot Cimarron, America Laughs
Florida State has unveiled (or revived) a new mascot, Cimarron, an anthropomorphic and unbearably benign horse who is active on multiple social media fronts. The university believes the new mascot will allow FSU to “participate in some opportunities that were not appropriate for the distinguished symbol of Osceola and Renegade.”
Translation: it’s 2012 and, regardless of technical tribal approval, you can’t have kids posing with a crude Indian stereotype in red face and feathers. Consider this the halfway point for Chief Osceola following the way of Colonel Reb.
Cimarron is also the official mascot of “The Florida State Kid’s Club.” The Florida State Kid must be kind of a big deal to be designated “the” Florida State Kid and to have his own club, and mascot.

Do you roast the tomatillos first? I’ve done that and it makes the flavor much deeper. Roast some onion, jalapeno and the tomatillos and blend it up and add some chopped cilantro and you have some kickass salsa.

Would one of you Ohio State fans (Spencer, Cursed, etc.) give me a breakdown of new Texans’ WR DeVier Posey? The talking heads on local radio this morning were surprised the Texans would actually draft a guy with “character” issues, but one of them noted he wasn’t a bad kid, just made a capitalist mistake. Said he continued to show up and practice hard while suspended.
I really like the Texans’ draft. Also, Huskerdawg, is Crick capable of being as good as JJ Watt? Seems like I remember Suh saying Crick was the best defensive lineman at Nebraska while he was there.

I think it’s a good pick up. Dude was a beast at OSU, and had they had him all season, they would have won 1-2 more games for sure.
Not sure about that, as Watt is an OLB, in the 3-4, right? Or do they have him as DE on the 3-4? Crick will be a DE in the 3-4 and as long as his torn pec is good to go, you’ll fucking love him. He busts his ass on every play and will be a great locker room guy.

Easy as can be since I cheat and buy tortillas, though I’ve been told making them isn’t that hard. Just cut them into the size and shape you want them in and fry them in canola oil (or any oil you want, really). Then salt them when they come out and squeeze some lime juice on them.

April 30th, 2012 at 2:07 PM
My Salsa recipe:
Ingredients:
• 1 can tomato crushed
• 2 small onions
• 2-4 jalapeno depending on taste required
• 6 cloves of garlic
• Small piece of ginger (about quarter inch)
• 2 tablespoon white vinegar
• Salt to taste
• 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
Steps: Mix onions, garlic, ginger, jalapeno, in a chopper and gently chop into small pieces (do not make a paste).
Then add all ingredients in a bowl, mix well and serve. You may want to top with chopped fresh cilantro leaves when serving.
Note: Depending on the brand of crushed tomato, sometime the salsa may be too thick. If needed add a small can of tomato sauce (6 oz) and mix well for proper consistency.

Crick was a stud before he got hurt. Idiots saying he benefitted from Suh’s presence on the line seem to have forgotten his junior year where he was an All-American with Suh in the league. He is perfect for the DE spot on the 3-4. This is my favorite Crick hit of his career.

Also, grill up some green onions (or scallions as some people call them) and add to salsa verde. Perks it up a bit.

April 30th, 2012 at 2:16 PM
Key to homemade is to core those seeds out, then dice the tomatos and let them drain for 20 30 minutes in a colander. Keeps from getting watery.
1.5 lbs vine ripes, 1 large red onion, 1-2 jalapenos (keep seeds to be minced and added later), cilantro, salt, pepper, lime juice. Cut to your preferred size (I dice everything, then pulse 3-5 times in a food processor). Mince the seeds and add with salt, pepper & lime juice right before serving. Simple & proper.
April 30th, 2012 at 2:16 PM
I made some using this recipe once and they were pretty damn good. But yes it is a lot of work. The recipe is from a mexican food restaurant that consistently wins ‘Best Tortillas’ in local publications out here.

Green salsa. Raw mango is what makes this thing:
• 1 big red onion
• 1 green bell pepper
• 8 tomatillos (green tomato)
• 2-4 jalapeno depending on taste required
• 6 cloves of garlic
• 1 green (raw) mango
• Salt to taste
• 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
Steps: Cut onion, green tomato and bell pepper in large pieces to fit in chopper. Make sure to remove insides and seeds from bell pepper. Mix everything in a chopper and gently chop into small pieces (do not make a paste).
Empty in a bowl, mix well and serve. You may want to top with chopped fresh cilantro leaves when serving.
Note: Tastes best as fresh or for 3-4 days only.

considering this is chief osceola’s monument, are we sure it’s a stereotype?
April 30th, 2012 at 2:46 PM
so b/c something unfortunate occured in a shitty state with dumb laws the phrase “stand your ground” is off limits?
Not really but I say all kinds of stuff is racist on here. The part about something not really being racist but being called racist is the part that makes me laugh to myself

actually…nevermind. that’s outside of FSU’s stadium. statement retracted.

in the most PC city in the nation, if everyone was really as offended as they lead on to be, it’d be changed by now.
I’m not sure what San Francisco being offended by the Redskins mascot has to do with anything, though

It’s still a valid point because the Seminole tribe has given their permission for their name and Osceola’s likeness to be used. So apparently it’s not that offensive.

also, kernel reb didn’t ACTUALLY do anything. osceola and the seminoles were fucking badasses. if anything, we should be protesting FSU’s shittiness for taking such a badass as a mascot.

im more offended that a bunch of lily white pansy lip wristed bonerholsters call themselves “wolverines” when a REAL wolverine is more like LSU. michigan’s football team should re-name themselves the “michigan lobbyists” or “michigan fatcats.”

So if I shoot someone for messin’ with my tomato plants, I can’t use this as a defense unless they’re black? Or must they be white? I’m confused?

Spencer, what exactly is a Buckeye? Honest question.

Tomato plants are inherently racist

A month? Wow. Where do you live? Even planting this past weekend, I’m about 2-3 weeks early from the “typical” season. I have a raised garden in my backyard, and with what I already listed, it’s only half full. I’m still going to put in some string beans, cucumbers and squash. I’ll probably put another couple tomato plants as well, just for more salsa.
April 30th, 2012 at 3:03 PM
Ah, the plant’s only weakness…movement.

North Atlanta Suburbs (Alpharetta).
April 15th is our traditional first plant day. I took a chance with all of the hot weather and it might pay off.
I don’t like to plant squash – squash bugs are a bitch and are attracted to the yellow. Then they migrate to the zucchini. And cucumbers. No squash – no squash bugs.
Tomatoes (5 types), cucumbers, peppers (green, yellow, red, sweet, jalepeno), leeks, garlic, zuchini, eggplant, basil, mint, thyme, rosemary, oregano, strawberry. Did beans for the first time ever – I don’t know if I’m all-in on these. The deer will likely get them.
Zucchini on the grill (charcoal) is awesome. Same for the sweet peppers, as a side with any meat – I put it on my hamburgers. It’s fantastic to pick them and prep them and throw them right on the grill.

I live in Atlanta and also took a chance with the warm weather, and it has paid off. We only planted a variety of tomatoes, peppers, and herbs, but they have all really taken off. I have been putting fresh cilantro on everything.

I don’t want to see some video popup on youtube where someone tries to eat a mouthful of Cinnamon…
