ERNESTO NOT LIKELY TO DELAY FSU-MIAMI
It doesn't look like Ernesto will interfere with Monday's big game, but that doesn't mean it won't interfere with practice. It also seems like there could be some soggy football played elsewhere along the Atlantic coast this weekend, but where still remains a question.

No matter how much rain does or doesn’t fall on Miami, there’s no humanly possible way for this year’s game to be any worse than last year’s. So there’s that. Still, the lessened probability of an impromptu wet T-shirt contest in the FSU Cowgirls section is something I’m kind of bummed about.

Doug,
Your post about the solar system chat room was pure gold. You, Pat Dye, Erk Russell, REM, and the original Varsity are on the list of ten best things Athens has given to the world.

I just hope that Ernesto doesn’t hang out along the eastern coastline and ruin a lot of potential games this weekend. It’s looking like that could happen to the north though.

Aww! (sniff) I appreciate that. Honestly the Pluto chat was something I threw together in like 15 minutes ‘cause I was bored, but I’m glad everyone liked it so much. I’d never presume to put myself on the level of Erk or the Varsity, though. Jasper Sanks, maybe.

Since your blog has a heavy political slant to it, I have to ask a very pertinent question.
You can only chose one: Would you rather have _(insert your favorite presidential candidate here) win in 2008 or watch Richt hoist a crystal football over his head?

Hey, AUAlum, exactly which way would this blog be slanting politically?

Back to Ernesto for a sec.
Since he’s going to be rolling through my parents Orlando hood tomorrow, and if it’s even possible for a hurricane tropical storm to have a moustache, it would be one with a name like Ernesto (or Dale, for some reason).
Therefore, I’d like to nominate Tropical Storm Ernesto for Moustache Wednesday.
Do I hear a second?

Are you saying that if I choose Wes Clark winning in 2008, Georgia can’t win a national championship ever? I have to know the answer to this before I can answer your question.

I would rather have Al Sharpton as president than UGlyA win a national championship. Or Hillary, or Michael Dukakis’s eyebrows, or Ted Kennedy’s liquor rep (sorry, low blow).

Just great, Ernesto will be in my hood, just about the time I catch a plane for the promised land, gainesville. F’n Beautiful.

Yes, ever. Richt or anybody else in football. You can win baseball and gymnastics all the live long day, but no football.
As for me, I will trade Al Borges losing in 2008 for a National Title.

I’d love to be Ted Kennedy. Although being a drunken womanizer with a well-paying job (with a 99% job security rate that doesn’t require you to “work” 12 months out of the year and the rest of the time you get to travel around for free and take bribes and get treated to the high life by lobbyists) could have a downside that I don’t see.
Damn Congress is great!

Oh, my God!! A tropical storm/hurricane is striking south Florida!! Has that ever happened before?

If it’s a game like last year’s, practice will be of little importance.
