Completely Unrelated: You've Got to Fight for Your Right to a Volvo
I do not now own, nor have I ever owned, a station wagon. This may surprise some of you, since I am, after all, a married guy in his early 40s with two small children and a house in the suburbs. You'd think I'd be the poster adult for the station wagon, but I pretty much stick with the Saturn....
Tuesday Night Dawg Bites
I’ve already told you what is afoot in Bulldog Nation, so I suppose it is time to take a jog around the blogosphere and see what is going on elsewhere in the intercollegiate sports world. Believe it or not, there is plenty to report; viz.: I go back and forth over whether Fredo Corleone or Benjy...
Monday Night Dawg Bites: Who Dat Say Saints Make Him Wanna Puke? Edition
The Monday following Super Bowl Sunday is like an aluminum bat to the face, and trebly so if the team you (nominally) supported the day before lost. Granted, there is no outcome of any NFL game I could find truly fortunate or unfortunate---it’s the NFL; it’s basically just a waste of six or eight...
Why It Is More Important for the Florida Gators to Get Worse Than for the Georgia Bulldogs to Get Better
Last Wednesday, Braves & Birds made some interesting observations about the Mark Richt era, one of which was this: Richt benefited from a weak SEC. . . . Richt's heyday corresponds with the conference's weakest period. Steve Spurrier had been replaced by Ron Zook, Phil Fulmer and Lou Holtz were...
Thursday Night Dawg Bites: Charlie Strong Moves On, a Congressman Makes Georgia Proud, and Clay Travis Breaks a Table (Metaphorically)
You all know where my focus has been this week, but there has been much afoot elsewhere in the blogosphere and I wanted to direct your attention to the best of it in case you might have missed some of the more noteworthy nuggets. For your edification, these are they: ". . . And to the zoo with...
Thursday Morning Dawg Bites
Ere I got to this week’s national games of interest, I wanted to take a moment to point you in the direction of a few items of interest I found worthy of note. These are they: So, is Lee Ziemba just a big ol’ honkin’ dufus? His comically exaggerated Robin-Williams-in-"The-Best-of-Times"-style...
Too Much Information: Georgia Bulldogs v. Auburn Tigers
I was feeling moderately all right about this one until Senator Blutarsky reminded me about the turnovers and I was sent into a tailspin by MaconDawg’s exegesis of the chess match between Bobby Fischer and SpongeBob SquarePants X’s and O’s battle between Gus Malzahn and Willie Martinez. The Senator...
Too Much Information: Georgia Bulldogs v. Florida Gators
Manic Kyle is dead, and the brief appearance of his zombie manifestation ended in absolute disaster. Doug is resigned to the inevitable and vineyarddawg fears we may be teetering on the edge of the precipice. Statistical projections, gut reactions, and Dr. Saturday all say the Georgia Bulldogs are...
How Mark Richt Can Restore the Georgia Bulldogs to SEC Relevance
I know it’s international conflict resolution day and all, but I am not in the most conciliatory of moods, as Bulldog Nation is under siege from all sides, both within and without. All the signs are there. (Otherwise intelligent rival fans pretending not to understand the difference between being...
Too Little Information: Georgia Bulldogs at Tennessee Volunteers
We are at the point in the week at which I ordinarily would offer a segment I call "Too Much Information," which has been a staple of my college football commentary dating back to the days when my brother-in-law, Travis Rice, and I co-hosted "The Dawg Show" on local cable. This week, though, I’m...
