Orson Swindle and Stranko Montana are two men pushing thirty who should know better than to run a college football blog, but evidently don't. Both graduated from the University of Florida, and both agree that college football is far too important to be left to the professionals.

Your University of Florida will be holding a candlelight vigil tonight at 8:00 PM. My Gator wife and I will be there. Many thanks to our friends in Gainesville.

Too bad we can’t take the lead of the ancient greeks on this one. Quoting now:
-The Temple of Artemis (in Greek — Artemision, and in Latin — Artemisium), also known less precisely as Temple of Diana, was a temple dedicated to Artemis completed, in its most famous phase, around 550 BC at Ephesus (in present-dayTurkey) under the Achaemenid dynasty of the Persian Empire. Nothing remains of the temple— not the first on its site— which was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
The temple of Artemis at Ephesus was destroyed on July 21, 356 BC in an act of arson committed by Herostratus. According to the story, his motivation was fame at any cost, thus the term herostratic fame.
“A man was found to plan the burning of the temple of Ephesian Diana so that through the destruction of this most beautiful building his name might be spread through the whole world.”
Source: Valerius Maximus, VIII.14.ext.5
The Ephesians, outraged, announced that Herostratus’ name never be recorded. Strabo later noted the name, which is how we know today.-
Damn Strabo.

I can’t begin to imagine the heartache being felt in Virginia today. When trying to make sense of something like this I’m reminded of the Gertude Stein quote:
“There ain’t no answer. There ain’t gonna be any answer. There never has been an answer. That’s the answer.”
Some may find comfort in not asking the unanswerable. Sometimes I do.

Yes, #11, that is a sentiment that is the basis of a healthy and violence-free society. Kudos for taking the road less traveled.

I feel bad for the family and friends of the people who were murdered at what is supposed to be a safe place. I also hate it when the gunman kills himself before the police get a crack at him. If this was a different time, I would have hung his lifeless body on of the open fields and have students, teachers and family take turns with a baseball bat to the gunman’s body.
