My friend's parents walked that line well.

She did. Many years later she brought her husband and 3 kids all in houndstooth (literally she had some sort of houndstooth fingernail covering on) to my kids birthday party. She introduced me to her husband and said, "we were the most OBNOXIOUS Tennessee fans together in high school."

Excuse me, houndstooth fingernails?

I love John Wayne and Clint Eastwood as obvious by my name lol, There has been some Skuttlebutt in the todays world of remakes by Clint Eastwood before he retires from directing and producing movies to remake a couple of his best movies with his son in them which if any of yall know him looks identical to his dad at his age. I wouldn't mind to see one done. Maybe Good, Bad, and Ugly.

I don't know how I feel about the remakes, Jos3y. I like the classics but there have been a few good remakes. I'll probably watch them. Love westerns.

I do think we are constitutionally different from the others. I believe that we are the ones who remember that we are one of the most storied programs in college football. We remember a time when there was swagger involved with being a Tennessee fan. We remember a time when, if we were down by 4 and Peyton got the ball back on his own 20 with a minute twenty seconds left, you had full confidence he could drive it those 80 yards. We are the ones who believe that a coach of the highest caliber, the single most sought after coach of our time not only would come here, but that the University of Tennessee would be the job he'd pick and want over every other single job on the planet. We are the ones who continue to believe in the strength of our history to propel us forward.

Stupid mullenites can't dream big. They can't imagine a life better than the one they already have. I genuinely feel sorry for them.

Awesome post!
We also remember the Sugar Vols, The Miracle in South Bend and the Stumble and Fumble...And the awesome defenses we had..Reggie White, Al Wilson, Leonard Little, Haynesworth and Henderson Just to name a few! I truly believe Jon Gruden can return us to these glory days!

This. If my kid got a athletic scholly to Bama, I'd be in the stands wearing Bama gear cheering for her. To do anything else would make you a crap parent.

Amen. Scholarship or no scholarship, college will be my daughter's choice. It is her life. Not mine. I will support her wherever she chooses to go.

If I had my choice, she would go to Stanford.

We likely won’t hear anything until after Vandy. Currie is in Bahamas and they’ll wait until after the game

I just wanted my kids to go to college. I had a son that graduated from Memphis (journalism), a daughter that graduated from the University of Canberra (teacher), a step daughter that graduated from Ole Miss (accounting with Masters of taxation), a son that graduated from ETSU (computer science), and last but not least my step son who's not doing very well at Tennessee!

Absolutely love the Duke and Clint westerns but I hate remakes they are always disappointing not because the movie isn’t good but like with True Grit , if it’s not JW wearing that eye patch and ridding across that open field with the reins in his mouth .. it’s just not True Grit
