So rewatching the Orange and White game for like the 100th time I have a complaint… they need to teach Hyatt to stay inbounds more when he has the ball. Every time he gets it he looks to get out of bounds.

Not always a bad thing when your as thin as he is. Better to not take as many hits. We also have no idea what injury he was dealing with most of the spring to know if that played a part in it. I lean it’s just he is thin and trying to limit hits.

This is possible. Well, either way as long as he catches the ball I don’t care too much, would like to see him try and break an arm tackle or two though, if he does that he could score almost every time he gets the ball.

The player in question is from Pittsburgh.

Same thing, just sub in Pittsgburgh for Georgia. Got confused cause someone said "LB Weaver" and I assumed it was the Georgia LB we took.

Also the incident happened April 18th BEFORE THE ****ING DRAFT... are you kidding me.

Yeah would be nice but also don’t want him breaking anything either lol. Maybe it was just exhibition game stuff. If Pruitt had got him ball more last yr we might have a better idea what it was lol

I was setting in my little corner looking out of my window and something became obvious to me. Have you ever noticed that people that want to be individuals, have their own look and be different all windup looking the same.......back to the Crayons.

Dr.J was special as well. The things he could do were so far ahead of his time and he changed how the game was played for so many. As far as greatest athlete you really need to look at Bo and Deion just for sheer athletic ability. We can debate for weeks if Lebron could have excelled at another sport but we know both Bo and Deion did.

I had the Bo Knows poster. I am just saying as a put together specimen Lebron is the guy.

Seems like you might give someone the benefit of the doubt, but when he is quoted as saying roughly, "sometimes a woman just needs punching", I would say you cut your losses and move on.

Press Release from Titans:

"The Titans Organization does not condone violence against women and we have decided to part ways with this POS. That is all"

There are so many out there from the past who knows. I had a college baseball coach tell me years ago that what he recruits now are baseball players, they can't do anything else because that is all they have ever done. He said twenty years ago you had athletes that can go and play every sport because they played everything where as now they focus on one sport and it is due to their parents more than the kids in many cases because they are scared they may get hurt doing some other sport that they may not be as good at and or just because the leagues basically play year round in some form or another.

So by your own admission, the only fans who should be disappointed by 10-2 every year are Alabama, Ohio State, Oklahoma, and Clemson.

uga recruits and sends guys to the league better than most of those teams.

To now meh if you’re only happy with championships like find a new hobby bro!

🙄

Do you even have a point?
Click to expand...

Yes. They should be happy with it. Because if you go 10-2 or better You’re a top 10 in the country... inside the conference with the best college football coach of all time. You can still be disappointed by not winning titles but people (uga fans included) act like their year is a complete failure if they aren’t playing for a national title or winning it. Casuals like yourself just think if a team has better players/recruits they should automatically win every time all the time.... like the other teams and coaches aren’t talented and smart too. Imagine if the NFL only had a 4 team playoff And now see How many Super Bowl champs wouldn’t even have made a playoff much less won the whole damn thing.

Then go find yourself a "good" program to feel good about. What I said was the f'n truth, and kids are f'n stupid.

What he said times 100. All you lily-livered, fair weather fans can go get your Bama tattoos and kick rocks!
My first year of fandom we had a fan (obviously a gentleman and a scholar) stay on top of a billboard until the team won a game. I can't imagine one of these soft fans these days showing that commitment!
Who's down to get on a billboard? I'll slingshot up beer and hot chicken to any volunteers.

After he passed, I referenced this interview and my wife (a huge fan...and slightly liberal) was aghast. She had never heard of this and I was all too happy to show her a YouTube video. 😎

Sorry Evan, but you’re wrong.

UGAs recruiting class the past

2021- 4th nationally
2020- 1st
2019- 2nd
2018- 1st
2017- 3rd
2016- 6th

They had 9 guys drafted in this years draft and 14 guys drafted combined the previous two drafts.


UGA has built in advantages that 98% of other college teams do not.

They’re the primary school in an insanely talent rich state.

And they’ve feasted on a weak SEC East.

Their annual west rival - Auburn - has been woefully inconsistent - thus AU fans always wanting and finally getting Gus canned.

They’ve had golden opportunities to win a NC.

They got smoked by LSU two years ago. By UF last year.

UGA has lost the last six games to Alabama.

In that time - Clemson has found a way to beat Alabama twice. LSU has. But not Kirby.

Kirby has an embarrassment of riches of talent at his disposal. But he can’t seem to find a way to win it all.

So yes - all that considered - it’s comical that they’ve not found a way to win a Championship yet.

Women's downhill mountain biking. You would not believe the public support that one trans-athlete received when they starting racing with the women. Of course, if you had a different opinion and posted as much on the largest mountain bike forum, you were quickly banned.

Freedom of speech as long as it goes along with the Admin's opinion LOL.

You know I actually think Lebron being the specimen he is actually hurt/set him back a bit. No doubt he's great, but early in his career it just seemed like he was big and fast and that was that. Spent the better part of his early career having to learn all the things MJ and Kobe seemed to have worked on prior to entering the league (especially MJ).
