Somehow this thread just doesn’t contain the bile and juvenile snarkiness that those Barners and Bammers bring on every thread, hijacked or otherwise.

While impressive, that is missing one key ingredient. Antoine Lott being blocked in the back.

CLT Dawg –

As Ltrain so eloquently points out, and I paraphrase here, “only your grandfathers own our grandfathers asses”.

Since 1937, Florida has a winning record against Georgia.

I will allow that to settle with you for a second.

In the area of the forward pass, in the era of non-leather helmets, Florida owns Georgia.

Since before World War II, Florida owns Georgia.

If you a Bulldog fan who is less than 69 years old, Florida owns you.

Sure, your grandfathers owned ours.

But we own your fathers. We own you. And we own your children so far.

Yes, the current record is 46-37-2. At the rate the Gators are winning, we are looking at a tie in 10 years.

Now, would I prefer to have a winning record for the last 69 years versus a winning record overall?

You bet your ass I would.

Mergz,

I’m only a Dawg legacy, was born two months after the Sugar Bowl win (ironically enough, over ND), and that call still always brings a tear to my eye and a smile to my face. Has never failed. No surprise it makes a true Dawg weep.

Larry Munson is the greatest (like it even needs to be said). Couldn’t get SEC games in the midwest (unless they were on CBS), so through college most UGA games were brought to me via WSB’s internet radio feed of Larry Munson, and I would listen to every second. I really hope he makes it back for this season (and beyond).

Truly pimpish would have had the score right on the scoreboards in the video game, but still…

Mergz – Almost 27 years later and you’re still bitter.

Orson- I think what makes the re-enactment so awesome is the grainy feel caused by video taping the TV instead of converting direct to video. I think it’s an effect of design. Not lack of skillz.

(btw — I’m lying. Just propping up my boy’s video b/c it’s OFF THE CHAIN). He’s got 2 more finished and 1 more on the way.

How did he sync this up with Munson’s call to the nanosecond? If you’re like must ‘Dawg fans, you’ve watch/listened to this particular piece of history so much it has actually become part of your electromagnetic Kirlian (sic?) Aura super-freaky mojo magical touch. He just basically willed it to happen but osmosis and Voila! It was done. Religious.

No CLT Dawg, your grandfather’s generation own our asses. All you own are memories.

Best. Call. Ever.

BTW – mergz – we still own your asses. You’ve won 16 of 18 and you guys still aren’t really that close to catchin’ us. Catch up first, then run your leathery yap.

I think I would rather hear ThaFranchise’s commentary, actually.

Only beef I have with that otherwise incredible video – Herschel Walker (#34 at the end of the clip) had too much class to carry on like he is there.

Can you imagine how different that call would have been, or how bad the property destruction truly could have gotten, had this game been called the World’s Largest Outdoor Coke Orgy back in 1980?

What I thought was neat about the video, and I noticed it during the 4th time I watched it, is the momentum bar shifting at the top. Kinda looks like understatement to me.

Ah…Belue to Scott. The highlight of Georgia football.

And perhaps the peak, as UGA has not won a “national” title since that year.

One of my favorite Jacksonville memories is of a rotund early 20 something Georgia fan weeping as he watched a replay of “the play” on the TV at Hooters. As he said, “It always makes me cry”.

Of course, since the year was 2004, said Georgia fan was unlikely to have even been born when Larry Munson made his famous call. Yet, it “always” set him a cryin’.

Perhaps he cried for what Georgia has been since then.

Do you think Bulldog fans would trade that moment to avoid the Gator domination of the past 20ish years? Or, merely for a win against Florida in 2002, where that 7 point loss kept the Dawgs from competing for the MNC? (Yet, a similar loss by LSU to UF only a year later allowed the Tigers to play for – and win – the MNC. Oh the humanity!)

Perhaps, in hindsight, that beloved play was but the start of a very long curse…
