    Best WLOCP memory

    Mine is my first, you never forget your first....1984. Gators had lost 6 straight and Herschel completely dominated us. Going into the game, the Gators always found a way to lose. The goal-line stand at the end of the third quarter, and then 2 (maybe 3) plays later, Kerwin to Ricky to ice the...

    1990 Bama game

    Saturday's game reminded me of the 1990 trip to Bama. New coach, new attitude. A game that we would have lost in the past....SOS brought an attitude of winning and won a very hard fought game in a very tough atmosphere....set the tone for the program. Saturday's win reminds me of that game...

    Carolina on my mind

    Sending positive thoughts to all those in the Carolinas who live there, have family and friends and for all those who will be affected. It is about to get ugly.

    Curses

    After Saturday's game, I asked myself, why have we fallen sooooo far from when we used to be so good. There is only one good reason, we are cursed. We have been cursed since Tebow left campus. The beginning of the curse began with Carlos Dunlap and Cam Newton. Are we being punished by the...

    Eagles’ ‘Greatest Hits’ Overtakes Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’ as Best-Selling Album

    Eagles’ ‘Greatest Hits’ Overtakes Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’ as Best-Selling Album – Rolling Stone I saw the Eagles in Chicago a few years back. It turned out to be their last tour with Glenn. Though this Eagles GH album is pre Joe Walsh, I prefer the Joe Walsh/Don Felder era (Hotel...

    Janoris Jenkins - Brother charged in murder

    Let's hope this doesn't end like AH. https://nypost.com/2018/06/26/body-reportedly-found-at-home-of-giants-star-janoris-jenkins/ I also read that his brother was supposed to fly out of Newark last night to Florida and was too scared to get on the flight.

    Billy Donovan to Louisville?

    I am wondering if Billy D. is realizing that the NBA is not what it was cracked up to be, especially with free agency, building super teams and might be looking to get back into college hoops. Would Lville hire a Pitino protege??? I always thought Billy D. is more suited for the college...

    SEC Tournament...

    Is anyone going? Not sure what the SEC was thinking by putting it in St. Louis. I guess they have to throw Mizzou a bone every now and then to make them think they are part of the SEC. I live six hours away....I am debating going.

    Is March Madness in jeopardy?

    Will the team have a collapse like they did in White's first season and miss the tournament? That will be a shame to waste Cheez's final season....but this team is so one dimensional. They have ZERO inside presence on offense or defense. If they do make it, they are matchup dependent. They will...

    Chance encounter with Dan Mullen in 2007

    I wasn't able to post this last week, swamped with work. Yes, work comes before Gatorchatter. BLASPHEMY!!! In 2007, I ran into Dan Mullen when the Gators were preparing for the Citrus Bowl and they were holding their closed practices at Disney's Wide World of Sports. At the time I was a "Cast...

    Thoughts from the trip to Mizzou

    I got back to Chicago Sunday night after a lot of driving to St. Louis, then to Columbia, etc. You get the idea. If you have never been to Columbia, don't bother. This is my second trip (2013, we all remember that season). The people are super nice, but it is in the middle of NO WHERE, unless...
