Sorry if I haven't seen it b4. Regardless it still tells the truth and for the record, it looks like the credit belongs to Jerry Merchant. As for beating a dead horse, the horse isn't dead, you will see the problem on the side lines come Saturday.

how does it tell the truth when it omits games just to make a point? The "excluding games vs." is just crap

the second place was a figure of speech...every year a team has the dream to be on top..2nd place is only the first loser...i fully expect us to be sharing the bottom w/another unmentioned team in fear that they may beat us in the East...and that for any VOL fan should be totally un-acceptable:no:

Just curious, Ooltewah Vol, are you a CPA or something? You're really good with figures and that would have just taken too much brain power for me.. I mean. dang, it's just... dizzying....

No I am not and in a follow up post I gave credit to the one who did it. However I am in a position where performance is what it is all gagged by and even my job depends on results, so that taken I am a believer in getting the job done, and at this point Tennessee football is average at best, and not getting the job done.
