It was only a matter of time...

...before a certain someone found out about a certain animated .gif of a certain someone else stiff arming another someone on the way to a TD that's been making its way around certain blogs and message boards, and got really pissed off about it:

The roughly two-minute clip of highlights from Saturday's work at Bryant-Denny Stadium has been pulled from TideTV. That's right. The in-house video service was seriously edited.

Some time Saturday night, edited highlights of the scrimmage (which was closed to the public and media) were posted on the site. The clips contained a shot of Julio Jones' ridiculous touchdown reception that included breaking a tackle and stiff-arming Rashad Johnson. Some internet guru took that shot -- which appeared to come from the coaches film, since it was an endzone cam -- and recreated it on this page.

Well, somebody wasn't happy. That page now says, "The image or video has been moved or deleted." And all the highlights are gone.

So yeah, we know nothing about any animated .gifs or videos or anything around here, and certainly would never post such things on the main page of this blog.

Vee know nuzzing!

What is this video you speak of?

Julio made a TD catch in a scrimmage? Where is Brian Cook (yeah, I went there)?

I can’t believe the audacity of some people to post purportedly awesome video of an amazing catch and run. I cannot believe the nerve of someone posting a shot of a beautiful throw by Wilson followed with a major stiff arm by a true freshman to an experienced DB. Amazing. I am horrified.

Roll Tide, Bitches!!!

This is an outrage....

I cant beleive some white trash redneck would do this stuff. Is a Tennessee fan hacking into the videos and doing this.

ok... im a little lost here?

So you mean that Johnson and Johnson got upset and wanted it off? Or CNS wanted it off because it wasn’t authorized?

My bad!

I had it sent to me, and was wondering where it came from; I guess we know.

It is funny that they have it pulled after it has made its way everywhere. It just adds to the myth of Julio Jones

Honestly...

…about two seconds after I posted it to the front page I started wondering when we’d get the “cease and desist” e-mail from the athletic dept. I’m surprised it took this long for it to disappear.

The irony is

That play will eventually be part of Julio’s Heisman montage.

A better pic would've been...

I thought the same thing..how long will it take for Coach to find out about it, and then get it pulled? He is trying his best to keep everything hush-hush and , lo and behold, someone gets this awesome video. I hate that it’s not available anymore…but I kinda see CNS’s desire to keep things hidden. It would be much better, I suppose, for Clemson to not know what’s coming at them!

RTR!
