That settles it..... the next dream team from the US will be an English chef, a South African diamond hunter, a Russian priest, a Japanese rock star, and a drunk irishman whose job it is to yell and flail his arms around in grandiose fashion. (Now that I think about it, that qualifies most American Basketball coaches.) <BR/><BR/>We've got a winning starting lineup here!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11250715.post-1169731051031023822007-01-25T08:17:00.000-05:002007-01-25T08:17:00.000-05:00Hack, that's almost exactly how I try to explain t...Hack, that's almost exactly how I try to explain the UGA-GT rivalry and, more specifically, why GT fans are such knobs -- as much crap as we talk to each other, Georgia, Alabama, Auburn, SC, etc. fans really aren't all that different. But Techies . . . yeah, that's a completely different animal right there.<BR/><BR/>By the way, in case anyone's wondering, I would've made just as much fun of the board poster had he been an Auburn fan, Tech fan, Tennessee fan, or whatever else (except Georgia fan, in which case I would be either denying his existence or desperately trying to prove he was a Techie in disguise).Astronaut Mike Dexterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01498197770701096363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11250715.post-1169694589525415472007-01-24T22:09:00.000-05:002007-01-24T22:09:00.000-05:00That video was awesome.

During the coaching drama, people with actual intelligence were on the boards. Since then, most of the smart people left.<BR/><BR/>Now, we have idiots like this posting.<BR/><BR/>When I interviewed Orson for a Columbia Citypaper story last year, I asked him to compare the UGA/GT thing and the Bama/Auburn thing. He said the Bama/Auburn thing is more heated because -- even though they may deny it -- the fan bases are essentially the same.<BR/><BR/>I have to say, crap like this reinforces that observation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11250715.post-1169684105367005902007-01-24T19:15:00.000-05:002007-01-24T19:15:00.000-05:00More Whitey?
