The Knoxville Knot Heads at the University of Tennessee have done it again, bucking the odds they could pick two ego gorged dysfunctional representatives to show case their institute of higher learning to the nation.
Defying all odds that history would repeat itself after the disastrous tenure of one year football coach Lane Kiffin and his cheer leader wife who bolted to USC and left UT to pick up the pieces from NCAA violations, now the Education Department (pardon the oxymoron) has decided to grant an honorary degree to one of the home boys, none other than Al "Big, Green Machine" Gore!
Climate change skeptics are all scratching their heads asking anyone who will listen, "don't these professors read the papers and see that climate change findings are invalid, contrived, and made up to just make money for people like Gore? Why Now? Why HIM? "
Like liberals everywhere, always ready to rush ahead in the cause of
'righteousness', the Board of Trustees are ready to convey an "Honorary Dr. of Laws and Humane Letters in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology" on to the 'deep thinker' and Nobel Prize winner, for his 'visionary leadership.'
There are only two others so honored in UT History. One is former Senator Harold H. Baker, Jr.
Gore should be pleased that he will now also stand beside country singer Dolly Parton, who also received the honorary degree.
"Well," said 2nd string field goal kicker Serbio Nostrasenko, " at least THEY have something in common. Looks like they both are about a 34ddd!"
