What pisses me off about other Georgia fans is that we can only revert to calling Florida “classless”. Really? That’s all we’ve got? I’m glad that we’re so classy that we enjoy serving up a nice big ‘W’ to the Gators every year.
I’m sure that I’m pretty classless when it comes to Florida. A lot of Georgia supporters are. I don’t see why we need to feign this Southern hospitality bullshit when we are getting our dicks stomped on. It hasn’t worked for the past 20 years.
I hate Brandon Spikes. Have since the Knowshon Hump last year and all of his antics since. I would not have been disappointed to see a UGA player go out of his way to stomp on his knee. Why should I? He doesn’t feel bad about physical harm not associated with the normal risks of playing football.
Your tears are delicious, Georgia fans. That was a very chippy game and Spikes definitely contributed to that. Not excusing it, but I love your righteous indignation. It’s so Ducks Unlimited and “Ties and Sundresses to the game”. Enjoy Shreveport.
UGA is pretty much dead last or in the double digits of every SEC category defensively, except running D ( mainly because why would any team bother to run when they can pass every single down and score more quickly).
However, steps in the right direction are certainly cause “to celebrate”. Just don’t be surprised when you hit a decent D and relazie that step was simply false.
UGA fans and their self-righteous indignation about Spikes’ behavior is, well, self-righteous indignation. The move was blatantly illegal and possibly criminal, but UGA fans need to extricate that action from their comments about Florida fans and players in general. Two reasons. One, UGA offered Spikes’ a scholarship, and having an offer from UGA and UF is something practically all players on both rosters have in common. Two, Spikes is from North Carolina, and I don’t see how the actions of a Carolinian have any relevance to a fan who roots for a team in Florida.
I know its much easier to spit anger at the opposing team instead of looking in the mirror, but UGA is not a good football team. Nobody is better at getting less production out of more talent. With Florida on top of the division and Tennessee rising out of an almost decade-long malaise, Georgia will be back in their rightful position of 3rd in the division.
Presumably you are talking to the Bama fans on this board?
Will be interesting to see where Oregon ends up, if they win out, winning every game since Boise State the first week. If anyone falters, they may be the best one loss team in the country. Iowa will shit the bed somewhere and be out of it sooner or later.
Georgia: the biggest inferiority complex thinly masked by the biggest superiority complex.
seriously. of all the fans i’ve ever been around… arky, lsu, ga tech, auburn, bama, scar, tenn, texas, OHIO STATE, yada yada… the under 35 georgia fan base is the absolute worst. maybe they’re different to teams other than florida? but jesus christ.
complain all you want about brandon spikes. but take a good look at your own delusional nasty ass fans. it’s one thing to talk shit to a taunting gator fan. but to almost get physically violent with a small 5′1 girl? fuck you. i would say that i hate them and hope they’re not even bowl eligible… but they’re a nonevent.
I do not condone violence aimed against the fairer sex, but this kind of annoys me:
“…take a good look at your own delusional nasty ass fans. it’s one thing to talk shit to a taunting gator fan. but to almost get physically violent with a small 5′1 girl? fuck you.”
The problem I have with the statement is that most of the times, the “taunting gator fan” and the “small 5′1” girl” are one and the same. “Turn the other cheek”, “Be a man and suck it up” come to mind as proper reactions to a wasted girl spouting off at the mouth, but she is at least inviting Georgia fans to give her shit [verbally and not physically, of course]. Trust me, Georgia has a ton of those girls too. And you are correct, we do have more patience with fans from schools not wearing Orange and Blue while doing the Gator Bait chomp.
Also, rjsplow – “I know its much easier to spit anger at the opposing team instead of looking in the mirror, but UGA is not a good football team.”
I’d say Florida did/does a pretty good job of further proving to everyone that Georgia is not a good football team. But it doesn’t mean that your two scenarios are mutually exclusive. Georgia and suck and Brandon Spikes can be a dick at the same time. The universe is still intact.
One thing I will say, is that at least Spikes can cash the checks his mouth writes. Prince Miller cannot, but still spouts off at every opportunity which pisses me off to no end.
Gator fans have short term memories. It hasn’t been that long ago that they were reliable with 3 and 5 loss seasons and all hated Chris Leak.
I guess the sentiment is that football is cyclical. Talk shit and crow while the getting is good because every team ends up eating that crow within a few seasons. Until Florida gets beat, they can talk shit. And yes, regardless of the merits of Georgia, Spikes played dirty and should get a one game suspension. All sorts of shit goes on in the pile, but it isn’t talked about. When caught on camera – time to pay the piper.
Paul. Really? Merely walking into a bar wearing orange and blue warrants that behavior?
Don’t think so my friend.
It’s a game. it’s not worth taunting. especially since i’m pretty sure one of those drunk/aloof kids with a lot of misplaced anger would actually act on it. LSU fans aren’t even that trashy.
@51 – whoa, whoa, whoa… Don’t shorten north carolinian to just carolinian when talking about a thug… Even though he is a badass football player, we already have enough thugs in south carolina and don’t need anymore thrown in the pot… North carolina is well known for their thugs anyway… They introduced us to one with the line, “who am I? Petey pablo, muthafucka…”
m – I probably did not state my words clearly. I didn’t mean to say any fans wearing school colors should be harassed, but the ones who are being jackasses. The ones spouting off at the mouth, even if they are 5′1” girls, should expect to get shit talked back to them. Notice I didn’t even exclude Georgia fans from that group?
That’s the point I was originally making. Florida fans are jackasses to Georgia fans. Georgia fans are jackasses to Florida fans. I don’t see why the fan bases try to act like they’re above the other side regarding moral issues. It doesn’t make it right, but taunting is prevalent on both sides of the aisle. To assume that it’s only Georgia fans is being ignorant.
“Gator fans have short term memories. It hasn’t been that long ago that they were reliable with 3 and 5 loss seasons and all hated Chris Leak.”
Chris Leak- did what no Bulldog QB since Buck Belue has done- won a national title, suck Dawgs- Chris Leak is more successful than any QB you’ve had in my lifetime. and he’s the 3rd best Gators QB of the last 15 years. (And don’t give me crap about David Greene- McCoy’s breaking Green’s wins record, maybe you guys and Horns fans can debate who the winningnest QB never to win a Big one was).
Look, I’m not defending Spikes but if he wasn’t getting hit late in the Helmet all game maybe he doesn’t have to eye gouge a punk, act like a punk and you get slapped down.
If you promise me 17 of the next 20, I’d be happy to take all the taunting (not fistacuffin’) in the world from any fan base.*
On another front, can we all finally get over the Bye/No-Bye prior to the game crap? Florida is 3-1 since 1990 (90, 91, 09 = win 07 = loss) when Georgia is off and Florida isn’t. Since ‘90, Florida is 12-1 when the roles are reversed. So yeah, technically the bye helps UGA lose at a lower %, but me thinks the players/coaching is the MUCH more important factor in the ultimate victor.
After Dockett tried his hand at ligament adjustment on Graham in the pile, I’ve really not been a fan of dirty players. Not that this is the first questionable thing Spikes has done, but enough is enough. I’d be down for a 3 game suspension so he can come back and unleash his rath of cheapshotery on FSU.
*Offer Valid for any program excluding Vandy, UK, and D-1AA teams, in which case 20 out of 20 needed.
Wanna know how to stop someone from gouging your eyes out in a pile? Simply move your helmet down and to the left and break that motherfuckers wrist, or start biting finger tips off….or get your revenge and make it count, hell if you are losing, whats another 15 yrds? I hear hitting someone square on the knee is legal. Arky did it to Donta Hightower, took him right outta the season. After viewing that, I hope we make it past LSU so we can get to play Florida…… and Ingram, Upchurch and Richardson truck that mofo every chance they get. Non-Stop.
what the hell does class get you anyway? it damn sure won’t get you a NC, or even a SEC C. so go be classy GA, and we’ll play dirty and continue to kick you ass every year. thanks for playing.
Orson Swindle and Stranko Montana are two men pushing thirty who should know better than to run a college football blog, but evidently don't. Both graduated from the University of Florida, and both agree that college football is far too important to be left to the professionals.
