Having lived through the past 15 years as a miserable VOLS fan, I'll always consider a good/great year to be special. Met my wife in 2008 and she hadn't been a football fan, up until the last couple years I'm sure she thought I was a liar when I told her the VOLS were awesome.
I mean, even if we have 3 of these a year...sure beats stressing every year over which 6 wins can we cobble together to get to the Music City Bowl. We would all love to have last year every year, but I'll take an 8 or 9 win season as a down year over what we just went through.
I think he was referring to them passing people on the shoulder, obviously in a hurry, escorted by law enforcement. A broken collarbone doesn't lead to that kind of transport.
