The best part is when the guy scores at about the 6:40 mark, the ref shoots off a pistol. Much better than that lame hand-raising thing.

I often have to resort to getting coke (lower case … definitely an important distinction) here in Charlottesville because there is a vast shortage of tea here. And those of you from SC know what I mean when I use the word ‘tea’. I thought Virginia was in the South!

There is NO, absolutely NONE, Diet Sun Drop in Columbia. There is very limited Sun Drop in Columbia, actually.

As those who are from the Carolinas know, Sun Drop and Cheerwine go together like peanut butter and jelly. If a restaurant, BBQ joint, grocery store, etc, has one, they damn sure better have the other.

Luckily, the Teeters in Charlotte and the Triangle all carry both SD and Diet SD.

And, yes, nabs are good. I, too, vaguely remember the “toastchee” Lance speak, sans peanut butter, packets.

I, myself, am partial to the Nekots, but I digress. They are all, “nabs.”

And, as OOC stated, any soft drink is a coke, lower case “c.” Every time I have been the one to grab a coke on a road trip I ask, “do you want a coke?” If they say yes, I then ask, what do you want?

Dirty Gamecock using synonamous nomenclature. It is like we all grew up together in the state of SC and basically see eye to eye on every subject but one.

Bollocks…

Check out 6:40, I guess that has to be an actual starter’s pistol being used by the zebra?

VandyJ – the ‘Dores had to have run something else. The earliest reported founding of the single wing, by Pop Warner, is 1906. Vandy had to be running something else.

I really hope the doo doo ice does not rear its ugly head at the Brice again this year.
I was mangle faced the first time I caught a waft of the doo doo ice in my jack and coke and I was positive I shit myself.

“The injury is most likely some torn cartilage, according to Dr. Houston Nutt, who diagnosed the injury on sight after practice. ”

Do you have the phone records to prove that?

Want ‘em?

YMB – You could also link the music to Rocky working out in a cold Siberian cabin.

Brought a tear to my eye thinking of an ultra-determined Rocky Balboa outrunning boats on a typically glorious Philadelphia morning..

wow, this brings back memories. in high school, this is the offense we attempted to run (3-6-1 as a junior, 2-7-1 as a senior, see how well it worked), and the only thing our coach would let us listen to in the weight room was the rocky soundtrack. this highlight reel just took me back a couple years to those glorious (or not so glorious) days

Nabs – yeah, short for Nabisco pack of whatever. it doesn;t have to be the 6 pack crackers, necessarily. it can be the bag of the orange hexagon thin crackers made up of the material used to make the crackers shells of the six pack cracker/cheese/pb sandwiches also. I don;t see them too often anymore. In fact, at the high of “nabs” era, nabs was any damn snack on the shelf behind the cashiers counter… chips, crackers, cookies, it don’t give a damn. And yes, it was never a Pepsi. It was coke- which was also any damn thing that came out of the coke machine… pepsi, mellow yellow, Cocacola, Dr. Pepper, Cheerwine, RC- but it was never pop or soda.
Gamecock Tony – just make sure your kids don’t go to the concession stand with the doo doo ice.

The WildCat formation has been renamed, officially. It is now the WildHog.

That took a lot of imagination.

Ohh, the backup QBs at AU are going fair game. Seems Tuberville is going to let Mr. Groves and Mr. Blackmon determine who is #2 on the ole depth chart.

Guys like Tom Osborne believed the forward pass was overrated (524 yards rushing in the 96 Fiesta Bowl, sorry Orson!). However the days of five offensive linemen, a fullback, and a tight end all coincidentally named Minotaur (half man/half bull) sharing the steroid needle with Elsie the cow are long gone too.
