Let’s be clear, the entire state of georgia is one giant “close but not quite”. There are some mountains in the north that are ok, but nothing like the states above. There are beaches to the east and south that are ok(at best), but nothing like the state directly below them. The entire south is nothing but massage parlor billboards and trash. The entire west is basically Alabama. So congrats on that.

Your sports teams routinely come up short, often in embarrassing fashion. Of all the “Housewives” my wife used to watch, Atlanta was by far the worst. It's also hands down the worst airport ever. At least when our far left guy loses a gubernatorial election, he goes quietly off into a binge of crystal meth and male prostitutes, never to be heard from again. Yours becomes a cult hero. The guys who've won your most prestigious golf tournament immediately get the hell out of there and get back to Florida.

It's no wonder Ray Charles liked it so much. He was blind. Even the guy in the song taking that midnight train back from the West Coast is only doing so because apparently he was an abject failure at life. Seriously, who can't make it in L.A? It’s been reported that the founding fathers didn’t even originally want to include the state, but felt they needed to to have access to Disney. Really, if it weren't for Bait'n and Gator By Marriage, I'd say just nuke the whole place and make it into a skate park or something.

I think you need to direct this to Donk. I haven’t been lauding GA and disparaging UF.

Georgia touts Ray Charles as a state hero even though he spent his entire childhood in Florida.
His mother literally went to Georgia to give birth to him and then immediately returned to her home in Greenville Florida.
As A teenager he was educated at The Florida School for the Deaf and Blind in St. Augustine

I guess when he sang Georgia On My Mind he must have been reminiscing about his birth since that would have been his only memory.

The outcome of this game might be influenced by the news today concerning Todd’s mentor.

Joe Lee Dunn died yesterday leaving Todd as the only living vagabond SEC DC with nothing to show for his efforts other than lots of gimmicks and lots of failures.
And 12 million dollars.

This is incorrect; their actual plan was to turn it back into a penal colony.

"The colony of Georgia, for example, was first founded by James Edward Oglethorpe who originally intended to use prisoners taken largely from debtors' prisons, creating a "Debtor's Colony," where the prisoners could learn trades and work off their debts."

Really, if it weren't for Bait'n and Gator By Marriage, I'd say just nuke the whole place and make it into a skate park or something.
I suppose a thank you is in order for you not wanting me nuked.

Underrated post.

Didn't we have a Joe Lee Dunn Jr guy once under Spurrier for a year? Thompson? the guy sometimes played like six linebackers and one defensive lineman everybody standing up.

Edit: here he is John Thompson (American football coach) - Wikipedia

You know I used to blame that on Fooley but Spurrier hired some of the same damn terrible defensive coordinators at South Carolina he hired here.

Augusta touts The Godfather of Soul. The hardest working man in show business.

I feel good!

I think he was a Zook hire actually, I remember him. Wiki says he was at UF in 2002, Zooker’s 1st season. Probably could still coach and recruit circles around Todd though.

Thompson eventually turned into a helluva HS DC. He was the DC at my kid's HS in '18 & '19 and they won back to back state titles with awesome defenses. His highlight was a playoff game where the defense held a Trevor Lawrence led two-time defending champ Cartersville HS team (in Lawrence's last HS game) to 17 points. Clearly, HS is where he belonged.

When he left, they definitely took a step back on defense. Last I heard Pruitt had hired him at UT to be an analyst. No idea if Heupel kept him on.

You forgot to say how great the traffic is. Come on, SOFLA, low-hanging fruit and all that. :-)

I feel good!

I stayed in Augusta while visiting the Savannah River Nuclear Site a couple of years ago...
There was a James Brown display in the airport that had various artifacts, clothes, shoes and pictures.
He was quite the showman...
I loved the way they would wrap him in a cape (due to entertainment "exhaustion") and "help" him off the stage, only for him to come roaring back out to loud cheers.
