"I'm gonna punch you right in the ovary; that's what I'm gonna do. A straight shot.  Right to the babymaker!" - Ron Burgandy

THE ZING LIST (August 14, 2008)

1. "How are you going to check to see how old she is?  Cut off her leg and count the rings???'"

ZING!: (TD 207261): Pimp David (5 pts)

Context:  On whether the Chinese gymnasts are underage.

Debate Tip:  Facts trump speculation.

 

2. "Do YOU even understand any of that?" 

ZING!: (TD 207518): lakers#1 (4 pts)

Context:  Responding to his opponent's paragraph and punctuation-challenged 2nd argument.

Debate Tip:  Clear presentation of your ideas is as important as the ideas themselves.

 

3.  "Sticks and stones, my child."

ZING!:   (TD# 206158) Serious Trash (3 pts)

Context:  Responding to an opponent who may have hit slightly below the belt.

Debate Tip:   Name calling is childish; avoid it.  This was a nice way to diffuse it.

 

4. "You said you wanted defense?  I offered you the reigning Defensive Player of the Year."

ZING!: (TD#207117): Hemo (2 pts)

Context:  On why KG may be a better pick than Duncan.  A Zinger because of it's focus.

Debate Tip:  Summarize what you have done and why.  If your opponent swings hard, counter punch HARDER. 

 

5.  "Cp3 lobbing to Tyson Chandler is DANK."

ZING!: (TD no. 207719) Peachy (1 pt)

Context:  The first (and only) "Not-really-a-Zinger" Zinger.  (On why Cp3's jersey would be the best Olympic jersey to 'rock')

Debate tip:  If you've started a random opinion-oriented TD, I guess you might as well use random facts to support said opinion.  The capitalization of the word 'dank' is randomly effective as well for some reason.

 

Congratulations to ALL of today's winners.   

Overall ZING CHASE standings are posted HERE. (current as of last Sunday only)

Yoda is DANK

It makes sense David has the most zinger points since he has 50 TDs going at any given time.

August 14, 2008  11:36 PM ET

Let me do more TD's and see the shenanigans that ensue.

I saw David's argument in that TD and I just knew it would make it on the zinger list! Good job Yoda :-)

Lol. 1 is brilliant.
Peach will be beside himself; 200 TD wins AND a mention on the Zing list!
Great job, Yoda.

Funny stuff, but compared to other days, it was a weak day. Only one or two really good zings today, in my opinion.

August 15, 2008  01:52 PM ET

This is bullsh**

August 15, 2008  04:03 PM ET

Wonderful job Yoda

August 15, 2008  06:28 PM ET

Musta been a slow day for zingers if Peachy can make the top 5. ;-)
