CURIOUS INDEX, 10/28/09

Had a piece of the hedge that I harvested from that day that was with me for many years. Lost it a move I think, pity that…

Spurrier be praised, amen.

With my apologizes to Murder by Death…

“IN a move” “IN a move” SAY YOUR GODDAMNED [PREPOSITIONS]!

Our edge in the BCS is thanks to the SEC champ game. Nothing like beating a top 15 team to close out your regular season.

Forget UGA v UF… the real game is Gators/Cocks… are florida fans as pumped as Gamecock fans? South Cack is rocking the desert camo and black uniforms for the game since it is Military Appreciation Day (Wounded Warrior Project and Under Armour)…

O –
Dimino on 790 admitted he reads this site on-air this morning. So you’ve got that going for you. Which is…nice?

So what you’re saying is Dick Rod kicked him off for getting burnt and missing some practices? We’re talking about a man who finds himself at Michigan by way of WVU and Clemson.

Missing class has never been high on his list; Pacman and Chris Henry we’re looking at you.

The cocks are pumped for that gaming. PUMPED HARD!

c’mon Kevin@lsu, that was a low blow… speaking of low blows, how’s your mother?…. i think i heard her yelling out how much she loves the cocks (i know… she said COCKS plural cause she likes to have a lot of ’em at one time)… had to keep going with it

Ray Goff is truly missed

Those guys trying to track the college football national title should just check the site that has already done all the work.

We play the Gators this weekend? Huh. How’d we do against Tennessee and Arkansas? And did I have fun at that Halloween party I went to?

Really? Dick jokes?

Say what you like about Ray Goof, but he didn’t lose three straight to the North Avenue Trade School, the way Richht is fixin’ to do this year and next.

Boubacar Cissoko never fit in at Michigan anyway; he’s much better suited as a holding midfielder for Galatasaray.

@ 8

My mother is a SAINT!

Sigh… Give the nerds one 3 point victory in 8 years and they suddenly have delusions of grandeur…

Golden Hand – Projecting 2010 wins already? Really? You may be right, but we will go back to owning tech from 2011 through 2020…

I like the “traveling national championship” idea, but only if they do it boxing-style, where you can be stripped of the title for failing to defend it. For that matter, let’s make it a huge, gaudy belt for the coach to wear on the sidelines.

Also, there could be multiple titles… unification game, anyone?

If I were a Tech fan (I’d have terrible acne but that is neither here nor there) I would not be making Ray Goff jokes since he mostly owned their asses. Don’t forget Trekies, the last time you beat the Dawgs in Atlanta most people had not heard of this up and coming politician from Texas named George W. Bush. Also some nuts were stockpiling for a computer problem called Y2K.

10 bucks says boubacar is still on the team if richrod and the university didnt get the notice of inquiry from the ncaa committee on infractions this week…

@ 11 – maybe i am getting ahead of myself, but they confirmed it last week and i haven’t seen any coverage of it… I didn’t dismiss the other games…. i just had to say something about carolina wearing FUCKING desert camo uni’s…

@kevin – your mother is saintly… just defending my gamecocks…

@12 – yes really… what’s wrong with a good dick joke? even though it was at my team’s expense, the day that dick jokes and farts stop being funny is the day i wish to die…

@mutts, various. Paul Johnson sneers at your “history.” OK, he just sneers, period, but history gets in the path of that, too. Current Tech-Georgia record is Mean Redneck 1, Sunday School Teacher 0. Three and Oh is where the smart money’s going.

NATS will be favored this year, obvs., and certainly next year if Dwyer doesn’t go pro (GIT has six seniors on schollie, and only three playing significant minutes). Probably favored if he goes and Thomas stays. Maybe favored if they both go, since Allen and Nesbitt will be sticking around (what’s Nesbitt projected as in the NFL draft? 7th round “athlete?”) Meanwhile, y’all will be starting a new, minimally experienced QB in 2010, so hard to project that working out 100 percent in Richt’s tricksy passin’ offense. Or who knows, maybe Ealey IS the new Herschel Walker, minus the stellar freshman year. Don’t bet on it.

Just because Ray Goof beat Tech a lot doesn’t mean he could coach. We had Bill Lewis for three years of the Goof era, remember? That’s five losses right there, (three plus two more of residual Bill Lewis stank).

Hey Cocky….I offer for your consideration the 2001 black-out game. Be careful not to get too jacked up……

@21 As somebody who has worn desert camo for reals (in two different wars), I appreciate the gesture, but camo uniforms really should be reserved for Army. And they shouldn’t wear them, either.

1995? The 1985 WLOCP is much more interesting. Gators #1 and undefeated heading in then held to a field goal. 24-3 over the (soon-to-be-former) #1 team in the land? Now that tickles (unlike the Gator Bowl turf mashed up against the face whilst lying prone and cuffed — ah, the good ol’ days).. What was Georgia ranked in 1995?

Sigh. Now if Georgia can just come up with two 100-yard rushers for the day like that golden afternoon in ’85 …

Is Coach Galen Hall missed as well? Oh, and I initially thought the date above was 1985 and nearly clicked on the link. I was in Athens in 1995 (and Gainesville in 1994). Ray Goff should be hired at UGA with the sole job of firing Willie Martinez, and then Ray should be fired (again) immediately, but without any kind of severance package.

@ Stan – yeah hate that South Carolina’s Alumni Association is pushing for a blackout game… they never go well for us… But you really can’t talk about any games during the Dr. LOUcifer Era…

@Golden Hand – thanks for your service. But i don’t think the decision was up to the school… i think under armour said, “this is what you are going to do since you will be playing on a national stage and we want to raise money for this awesome organization… we make your uniforms you will wear what we tell you to wear”

@8, thanks for explaining the punchline—I didn’t get it at first…

Swindle,

Mark Bradley agrees with you re: SEC officiating conspiracy theory: http://blogs.ajc.com/mark-bradley-blog/2009/10/28/the-sec-its-refs-and-the-conspiracy-theory-no-sale-i-say/

You bring up Ray Goff; I indicate that you and Mark Bradley think alike.

It’s hate week, sir.

We are stung, Jamie. Then again, we also currently agree (somewhat) with Gregg Doyel, so it’s been a week for hitting the Bactine hard.

Man I love Tech under Paul Johnson (and the when y’ll had Lil’ Joe at QB) but really talking smack to the Dawgs is like the Dawgs talking smack to us.

@ 27 I can’t figure that one out. They don’t GIVE those unis away, do they? So if you’re just buying them, can’t you tell Under Armour to go stick it up their pretentious British spellchecker? Hmph. I guess it’s one of those corrupt coach kickback contracts.

@32 Pfft. Georgia is closer in the overall series to Florida than Tech is to Georgia. If you let being behind in the win-loss record stop you from talking smack, you just ain’t much of a smack talker. Does this mean Florida can’t talk smack to Tech?

Steve Spurrier was just releasing the pent up rage he had at Georgia for the beatdown they gave him in 1966 after he got his shiny “Heisman Award,” which he incorrectly believed to be a magical amulet preventing interceptions no matter how terrible the throw. And don’t forget that Vince Dooley owned Florida in the 70s and 80s just as much as Spurrier owned Georgia in the 90s.

That said, I’d have to really be drinking the Kool-Ade if I made any close to definitive statement that we’d finally turn the momentum back to UGA. Oh well, one can only reminisce to the good days and hope that at the least we can show Florida how 2002 felt like.

Can you bring up 1995 without mentioning 62-24?

I was in Athens that day every bookey in town got trounced when everyone and there mom took Florida and the over. We then took said money and celebrated The Braves Winning The Freaking The World Series. So like Triple HHH once said SUCK IT!

I went ahead and updated the wikipedia description of flea flicker with this. did not know that.
