showing Flood landing in the chopper upon hearing that he was fired yesterday? This was pointed out to me by @ruhudsonfan and I've been laughing my arse off about it since. So then we started making edits to the video. Mine is below. Hud's is impressive and he'll share it when he's done perfecting it if he wants.

Let me set the stage:

Flood's superagent Jimmy Sexton calls to tell him HBO wants to film a pilot starring Kyle Flood which will detail his tenure as RU head coach. Below is the opening theme.

I'm as anti-Flood as it got but that have no idea what that was meant to be about (nor was it funny, sorry...). Hopefully Hudson's is a lot better!

Dumb as dumb can be. I think as a mod you should be a step above everyone else not dumber. JMO

I love Curb Your Enthusiasm. Was a great soundtrack to use for the video

Amazingly, the most bizarre part isn't the video itself it is his responses in the follow up threads. This really explains a lot.

RUtrack94, always love seeing fellow track alum (assuming) on the board, what did you run? I graduated in 85, had Gags for 2 years and Mulqueen for 2 as our coach.

I used to watch Curb Your Enthusiasm years ago -- Larry David is funny. This video -- not so much, especially to someone who is not a fan of the show. This edit captured the spirit of the editing style of the show but lacks the comedic substance. It is only mildly amusing because it looks and feels like a show that makes me laugh. So A for capturing the spirit of CYE editing but F for not delivering amusement to the casual observer.

What makes this thread cringeworthy is how excited he was to show it to us.

Anyway, here's one of my favorite scenes from the show:

On a side note, why did Rutgers waste money on a round trip helecopter ride for Flood; knowing that he'd be fired Sunday?

Wouldn't it make sense to call Flood and tell him not to go to Long Island and report to Barchi's home instead?

I think that is what was supposed to happen, Flood took the trip anyway. Personally what happened this weekend, with the right hire, will benefit the program and I feel good about that.

However for someone to celebrate or derive pleasure in someone's firing is completely sick. I certainly expect most if not all the staff to lose their jobs during the holidays regardless of what you think about how they did their jobs that's not easy. If you have been in management you may have had to fire someone and regardless of that person's performance it's never a celebration.

He probably said "what's he gonna do? Fire me?"

Again, what high schools played on Sunday?
