although i love to read his writing when im feeling too emotional, i doubt Marcus Aurelius would remain so stoic in the face of a blind side rush into a d-line sandwich

Yesterday UGA. Tech today. Is this Orson’s version of fair and balanced?

On the contrary, I believe the modern translation of that particular passage would fall somewhere in the “YOU AIN’T HURT/RUB SOME DIRT ON IT” school.

personally i’ve always been a fan of “walk it off,” but you make a pretty compelling argument. i know he spent quite a lot of time fighting the northern hordes during his reign, but i wonder how he’d deal with being dropped in the middle of the “305” around the OB for an evening or two…

Finally GT is shown in a favorable light.. Although who couldn’t sandwich such a statue, executing the brilliant choreography of one mister Patrick Nix.

Not being familiar with this particular quote, my first thought was Tony “personal power” Robbins. Anyone that deals with bouts of insomnia should know this name well.

Georgia Tech finally has found Mr. Wright…

@ Holly and rjsplow (4 & 5, respectively):

Yes, “Walk it off, Nancy” came to mind.

Until that day Kyle Wright enjoyed being the filling of a “man sandwich.”

What is his nature?
He throws interceptions.

No. That is incidental. He covets.

Re 6 / Harper:
That photo is from ‘06 in Atlanta when GT still had Nix coaching up Reggie Ball….. GT only had 1 sack last year, so to be fair,
’Who couldnt sandwich such a statue (13 times in ’05 & ’06), executing the brilliant choreography of one mister Larry Coker.’
