Shocking as it might seem to you, I deduced from "Volprof" that you taught at UT.

I did not read your name as "Volproof", a name you might go by if you were attempting to show that your Tar Heels could not be overwhelmed by the Vols.

And, no, its not possible to be the fan of two teams at the same time. Two years ago, in the Music City Bowl, you probably were sniveling into a diaper, torn by your indecision as to which team you should pull for. Tell your split personalities/ two identities that a choice must be made, and while doing so remember whose tax dollars keep food on your table. :bash:

Post often? Did you even graduate from UT? Looks like a KY Jelly ring with all the blue and white yang chang crap on the side of it. I am beginning to think your hate for Volprofs home state actually stems from the fact that you are a closet KY fan.

Yeah, it's pretty much 10 to 1. I'd say that's a fair majority. What surprises me is that even the Davey Crockett logo has it beat. I have NEVER like that logo. But hey, it wasn't around when I was in school I don't think.

I'd say bumper stickers, flags, and apparel I see around are 95%+ power T. I've got no problem with the others, though I'm a power T guy. I just expected it to about 10:1.

I like them all. Voted for the power T but wish the others were used more.

Personally i prefer the old style power T better. It was less beefy at the top. I may be the only one though. I'll try to find a pic

Take a little closer look at the ring.

Its the ring of the 29th Infantry Division of the US Army. The 29th Division was the first to hit Omaha Beach on D-Day, June 6, 1944.

I'm proud of that ring.

Can't see it on my comp....sorry bout that. Ease up on the NC guy will ya? He is a Vol and teaches my kids. I grew up in Al and still have allegiances to the Tide. I bleed orange and am a Vol, but I also pull for Bama except for the 3rd Sat in Oct. Would love to be able to pull against them in Atlanta this year too, but that may be in the future. You can be a fan of more than one college team. Just takes more than a one track mind.

The 29th Infantry Division ("'Blue and Grey"[1]) is an infantry division of the United States Army based in Fort Belvoir, Virginia. It is a formation of the United States Army National Guard and contains units from Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina.

Formed in 1917, the division quickly gained the nickname "Blue and Gray", reflecting on the fact that it comprised soldiers from states on both sides of the American Civil War. Deployed to France as a part of the American Expeditionary Force during World War I, the division saw intense combat in the final days of the war, and suffered heavy casualties. At the end of the war, it demobilized, though remained an active National Guard unit.

Called up for service again in World War II, the division was sent to England where it trained for two years, before participating in Operation Overlord, the landings in Normandy, France. The division is best known for being among the first wave of troops to the shore at Omaha Beach, suffering massive casualties in the process. It then advanced to Saint-Lô, and eventually through France and into Germany itself. These actions have since been the subject of many motion pictures and video games.

How are you associated with it? Were you in the 29th? If so, thank you VERY much for your service! And yes, I know who the 29th is. WWII was my hobby as a kid. Reading and drawing.

Nice job, govols/cc. I've always preferred the Davy logo on top of the word "TENNESSEE" as opposed to over the "moving Vols" logo, as I think it was described when it came out in the mid-'80s.

As for the growling Smokey, as has been said many times since the logo was unveiled, blue ticks are not known for growling and snarling. And that font under the logo is just bad IMO. It doesn't "fit" Tennessee athletics.

Funny how Nike can come up with something so good -- even though we weren't a 100% Nike school at the time (Sports Belle made our unis). The Davy logo and the font for the word TENNESSEE both fit what we are all about.
