So, law school sucks, but the semester's over and I'm back. I probably failed a final, which is fine by me so long as the Gators won. Yet another example of how my own life and its success takes a back seat to the successes of the Gators. Go priorities. But the good news is that I'm back and I'll be posting every day.
Some significant things have occurred in my absence: The Gators are the Southeastern Conference Champions. The Gators will play for the BCS National Championship in a few weeks. Are they ready? Mullen is gone (Cue the Jota clapping). Tebow lost the Heisman with more 1st place votes than everyone al la 2000 Presidential election. Percy will be back. Miami is playing in the Emerald Bowl against Cal (-7).
Let's start from the top. We're going to the big dance. Thank Timbow, or God, or whatever deity you worship. That was just the kind of game that people wondered whether we could win: A fistfight-- a good, down home SEC, shatter your teeth, concuss your dome-piece, for the blood and glory football game. Fuckin' A.
The Gators were on the ropes several times and came back with more ferocity than the Tide. As the Timbow put it when interviewed by Herbstreit at the Heisman, "When you're backed into a corner what are you gonna do? Turn? Or stand and fight?" They stood, they fought, they won.
Next?
They won a trip to the National Championship, a chance to win their 2nd national title in three years. They won an opportunity for their leader, the Timbow, to get his deserved glory back from the Okee (that's Okee, not Okie, cause he's a Cherokee). Timbow doesn't lose twice in row. Judging from his face after the Heisman winner was announced, the Timbow felt like he lost. Timbow does not like these unfamiliar feelings and wont suffer them any longer than he can control. It upsets the natural order of things, which is, Timbow wins, losers lose, and the Earth goes round the Sun.
As the Timbow said, a lot of good will come from this.
Let's talk Percy. I have little to no information on his status. I've been tree-huffing and watching the tube all day since finals finished and have only heard that he will play according to some analysts on the NFL channel. Anyone with any news please come forward.
The following is unrelated to the Gators and their bowl game, the BCS National Championship, but fun to discuss nonetheless. The Hurricanes are playing a ranked team in a bowl game-- Ball State. Wait, but Tulsa is playing Ball State. Exactly. The Miami hurricanes aren't allowed to play against a ranked team because of their inferiority. They are, instead, playing in the Emerald Bowl. Vegas predicts the Bears to win by 7 points. I'll make my own easy prediction: There will not be a single UM fan in the stands. Why? Because Miami fans won't travel to Ft. Lauderdale to watch UM's home games, they certainly aren't going to San Francisco to watch the U in the Emerald Bowl.
It's all about the irrelevance.

M – Good to see you’re back in action and done with the shenanigans that are law school exams. You’re back with a vengeance, particularly your unnecessary comments about the U. Low blows, but there’s nothing I can say about it, we’re a couple of years away from being a contender (hopefully). Congrats on the gaytors success. Like I told you last week, I think this may be the best college football team since the ’01 Canes (9 first round picks in '01 and '02), and Tebow is arguably the best college player of our generation. Notwithstanding, f*ck the gaytors, and 5 is still better than 2, or even 3. Go Canes!
Who is this "5 is better than 2" person? Show your face you coward.
Is it just me, or does Sam Bradford look like a total douchebag? I can't wait for Brandon Spikes to get all-brandon-spikes- on his ass.
Go Gators.
5 is better than 2 (javi??) -- don't know who you are for certain but I will acknowledge that you are a good judge of talent...this is (at least has the potential to be if we win this game) one of the better teams in College Football history. If you look at the margin of victory and the caliber of the players...it's all there.
By the way, the Canes are gettin recruits...no doubt about that (it looks like you're getting Ray Ray Armstron from Seminole this year...that kid is a stud)...but for some reason, you just don't know how to win...you can't put it all together...and that's coaching...Randy Shannon might never be able to make that happen..I don't see it with that guy.
Bradford reminds me of the Duff which puts him in a category that I, and another, singularly distrust.
Both Okees I may add.
It's good to be back.
Wow, Caro, coward thats a strong word coming from a fan of a team that didn't want to play us for 75 years. I have no idea how to set up my acct or put my picture up (and I'm too lazy to look into it). Caro, you're more than welcome to do it for me.
Wall Street Gator, I agree w/your points. I'm still not convinced about Shannon. Hopefully they fire Patrick Nix, and that would be a start.
Speaking of looking like a douche, M you should post the pic of the Texas Tech QB in his Christmas sweater.
