ADIOS, MUCHACHOS.

…counter-dancing in Athens…usually leads to linoleum face-plants when done under excessive alcoholic influence…and who can forget the Athenian Stafford Man-Spoon…ahhh, we’re gonna miss those guys…

Oh, well. It was fun while it lasted.

Go Dawgs!

Knowshon Moreno has countertopdanceability

i had hoped they would decide to do the same thing…i just hoped they would decide in the opposite direction. i think moreno made the right decision, i think stafford should’ve stayed. however, if matt leinart had left after three years…i’m sure people would’ve said he should’ve stayed too. instead, he just passed up millions. can’t really blame either of them. they certainly were fun to watch. and orson, i think your “oh thank you baby jesus” sentiments are being echoed by just about every head coach of any other team in the SEC…and dennis erickson and mike gundy. except gundy is probably thanking grown jesus, because, well…you all know why…

Here’s to hoping Tebow, Harvin, Spikes, Greg Hardy and Jevan Snead go along with them.

Class post. We’ve love them at UGA, but we certainly missed some opportunities with them. Here’s guessing you never see Richt redshirt someone that can contribute right away again. To only get two years out of Knowshon is a shame.

while another year with a healthy Moreno and a better line would certainly give opponents pause, the fear of the Stafford returning amounted to meh. Brilliant at times, triple-coverage and inteceptions at others. Seems like a good kid, though.

Ltrain, if you can find me a coach in the SEC who said “Meh” when thinking about the possibility of facing Stafford as a senior behind a healthy line, I will find you a liar.

I woulda went pro too, but then I let those phillies slow me…

“Meh. And, no, I’m not lying when I say that.”

It’s not good news, but its not the end of the world. Stafford was good enough to make ridiculous plays, but that rarely wins Championships. Moreno was a special talent, but I still think we got less production out of him than we should have.

It’s all about O-Line. It’s always the line. If our O-Line is as good as it looks like it will be, we’ll be in good shape.

@9: it never stopped ricky williams

Anybody thought to check Doug’s place to verify the integrity of his appliances???

Florida prepares for its fourth national championship game in four years in the only sports anyone cares about. We die a little inside.

Seriously, what the fuck kind of deal did Herschel-addled Dooley strike with the devil?

Commence with the schadenfreude. Because we know that even the worst deals with the devil expire after twenty years, right? That was the lesson of the Travolta comeback, wasn’t it? I assume we’re in the middle of the Look Who’s Talking era.

but georgia played for a national championship in baseball! and the gymdogs dominate! fuck it, it’s hopeless.

The future is bright for UGA! We’ve always had great luck with senior QB’s named Joe! (cries into Evan Williams and Coke)

Dear SEC,

Now you are all in big trouble.

Sincerely,
The Ginger Balla

PS- Stop calling me Joe Tereshinski IV

as i try to think of other successful ginger quarterbacks, i’m kinda stumped. jeff garcia is the only one who comes to mind. any help?

Wouldn’t it be ironic if Stafford ends up with the Chiefs and is tutored by OC Chan Gailey.

Quit yer barkin’, dawgs! Ah’m listenin’ for the lamentations of the wimmen in Athens…gotta provide that shoulder to cry on…

Say what you want, Tebow’s still a virgin…

Dear JT IV,

You can suck on my chocolate salty balls.

Sincerely,
Yo Daddy

oh, I guess when he fucked Georgia this year that didnt count b/c it was in a different zipcode?

LOL, check out this article about why COLLEGE BOWL GAMES SUCK

1. —

My appliances, bless them, are all safe. The only things in my apartment to have incurred any damage are my pillows, which are stained with the tears I’ve cried over possibly losing my last chance to ever play Legos with Knowshon Moreno. Why, God? Why?

#8. I stand behind the comment – he was briiliantly spotty. AJ Green causes me heartburn. Moreno is once a decade; Stafford relies on his unbelievable arm to often throw into double/triple coverage when he should check down or throw it away. O-line would certainly help, and I’m not saying he’s not a great QB, but based on track record and his progress from freshman year, you can’t guaranty the brilliant “next step” to Peyton Manning status, so, meh. I would’ve liked to see him play in college another year, cause I do like me some gunslingers.

Thanks for the help easing Coach Lane into the SEC East.

Major Applewhite at UT
Andy Dalton currently at TCU

Also, was Jeff George a ginger? Does he count as “successful?”

I admit that I will miss Moreno – if nothing else because of the sheer terror I felt when he was handed the ball. It was the SEC version of a Freddy Kruger movie (for non-UGA fans). You knew he was coming. You were scared to death. You knew that there was a real possibility that he was going to kill you. And you couldn’t stop watching.

I hope he continues with the same success in the NFL.

I believe this says it all for Georgia fans

Caleb King is certainly no slouch and with the o=line coming back I honestly doubt there will be much drop off in RB production for the Dawgs. Make no mistake though, Dennis Erickson and I will have an extra glass of scotch tonight in celebration.

As a Dawg fan, I have no problem saying this is a brilliant post and blog. The fact it comes from Florida fans just adds insult to injury. FUCK.

Fare thee well, my friends.

But such is the life of a college football junkie. Luckily signing day is just around the corner, and more ridiculously premature and overgrown expectation will come our way.

Posts like these are why I check this blog everyday. Although I’ve been reading about “Morenofford” (nice touch) leaving for the past few days, this has been the most entertaining article I’ve seen in a while. Your knocks toward the memories they have given Georgia fans are on point, and we all figured the way you described the Detroit Lions as a reason Stafford might hang around. Ah, we are so naive. I never took the step back to realize what it would be like for an opposing fan to watch Moreno run against their defense, but I will certainly miss the excitement he brought.

Jason #14, hahaha that was epic…

Lmao at Bobafet #30, well played my friend. I am even more excited for next years Dawgs though, since our offensive play will be unexpected and I have much confidence in Joe’s ability. I am much more worried about our RB situation.

Ahhhhh, shit.

Saban thinks his evil plan of planting the rumor of “limits on first year rookie draft money in the NFL taking effect in 2010” is working nicely……….
You can all thank Jamarcus Russell for that…….aaannnddd Ryan Leaf for that matter…..

@36 and Alex Smith….and Vince Young….

1. and #37 – all of this talk makes Ryan Perilloux very, very depressed.

Too bad Richt fell asleep at the wheel when recruiting OL for the last 7 years, or we would’ve had at least 1 championship game with these guys.

If Moreno goes to the Jets, I might have to make the trek from Brooklyn to Jersey.

BK: You mean Neil Callaway, right?

You know, maybe it’s not so bad – from Knowshon to Washaun? – Oh, who am I kidding? This sucks.

Still, on the bright side, no expectations means we’ll probably see 10-3 as an OK year and not be all apoplectic about it.
