    Happy Veterans Day 2023

    For all our GCMB Vets, and all Vets across this great country, thank you for your service and in particular your willingness to put your life on the line to protect the greatest country this world has ever seen. She may be sick at the moment, but it’s not terminal and as long as there are still...

    RIP Brooks Robinson

    One greatest third baseman ever, and a personal favorite player when I was a kid. Amazing fielder. https://www.wbaltv.com/amp/article/orioles-legend-brooks-robinson-dead-86/45329889

    NBA Legend Willis Reed Passes at Age 80

    You know you were a legend when a classic game is named after you. Game 7; NBA finals; Knicks vs Bucks: The Willis Reed Game. Edit: Lakers. (What was I thinking?)

    What ever happened to Greg Oden?

    Pretty good article on what Greg Oden is doing these days - though it's funny how the author talks about the 2007 championship game without actually say they lost that game to UF. I for one never like to refer to a guy as a "bust" when their career was derailed by injuries. When healthy, as he...

    Pop Tarts

    Does any else here read "pumptard" and in their head hear "Pop tart?" I fully confess to loving them as a kid.

    2022 Conference Championship Games Thread: Utah destroys USC

    Anyone else watching the PAC-12 Championship game? At first it looked like a USCw blow out; now I'm starting to hope Utah loses a bunch of guys after this year. They could end up killin' us next fall.

    Gator Gear, Paraphernalia, Tchotchkes, etc

    I imagine everyone here has Gator items they are particular fond of or just unique in some way. My avatar was a recent acquisition by Mrs. G. She liked the fact it was Foster's - she worked for a couple of years for the Australian Government when we were overseas - but really it was all about...

    2022 NCAA Lacrosse Championship

    At 1pm today (ESPN) is the championship game featuring Maryland vs. Cornell. As the great majority of our posters grew up in the SE, I realize this event is probably meaningless. Having said that, the game is growing rapidly across the Carolinas, Georgia, and Florida, with youth leagues and HS...

    Birthday Happy Birthday wrpgator!

    That’s two for me today; I’m exhausted. Enjoy your day; I’ll celebrate by grilling tonight. And no, none of you are invited. Is it just me or are the mods really slipping around here?

    Birthday Happy Birthday URGatorBait!

    No one else did it, so I figured what the hell. Enjoy your day! I’ll celebrate by taking the day off. It being Saturday is just coincidental

    RIP PJ O'Rourke

    Hilarious satirist; I didn't always agree with his takes, but they were always funny. I have two of his books: "Holidays in Hell", about his time as a war correspondent, with other travels to less than desirable places thrown in, and "Parliament of Whores", which his take on the U.S...

    Vintage Baseball

    When I was a kid, the Baltimore Orioles had slick fielding shortstop, Mark Belanger, whose nickname was "The Blade." As a kid, I thought it was the coolest nickname ever. (I still think it's pretty cool.)

    Game Thread ***OFFICIAL GAME THREAD: UF vs Utah***

    Any of our football junkies watching Utah? I’ve not seen them at all this season, but am taking advantage of them playing a game at a decent hour to see what we’ll face in game 1. Also OSU LB Steele Chambers (#22) is a HS classmate of my kids. Had a chance to talk to him once; nice polite kid.

    SEC Coaches: The best, the ones in trouble, and the ones on the rise

    I thought this story from Rivals would definitely elicit some strong responses from the folks here. For those who are too lazy to read the linked article, here's the summary: Best: 1) Saban (duh) 2) Fisher 3) Mullen On the hot seat: 1) Leach 2) Orgeron 3) Stoops Up and comers: 1) Pittman 2)...

    Was Eisenhower a "great" general?

    In the thread in the political forum on the covid vaccine, @grengadgy posted, in response to a comment by @rogdochar about Fauci, (clearly with sarcasm, to me anyway) "I don't even know how long Eisenhower was in the trenches before he became commander of all allied forces in Europe." I...
