Quote Of The Day

“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23

Get The Picture 
This promises to be even more exciting than the unveiling of the Statue of Nick in Tuscaloosa.
But what about Russ The Temporary Mascot? He gets no respect. He should. He’s been through the hard-times with us. They’re even fixing up pre-arrangements to bury Russ in the back yard in the Garden of the Good, the Evil and the Temporary (and he’s only 42) rather than slabbing him up in the Mausoleum.
It’s not like Russ asked for the job in Athens anyway but to just let him go like a linebacker coach is an awful act we all should be ashamed of.

I was thinking about Russ the whole time I was reading that Wed Morn Buffet article asking joe Pa to step down.

Thanks Dog,
Just like life, it hasn’t always gone the way I wanted, but it’s been a good ride. I got my 15 minutes, I got to party with Damon, and I got to hang with y’all for a while.
This weekend, I’m telling AJ and the guys we’re all goin’ out with a winnin’ record so G.A.T.A.!
One more thing, let those AJC hacks know I’M NOT DEAD YET!
The article read like an obituary, like I was Bobby Cox or something.
(Drool.)
See ya Sattidy.

Russ, it was unfortunate that your days as a replacement went about as well as Brooks Conrad’s. However, I think you will always be remembered for winning the 2009 ACC Championship.

Partying with Damon has to be the #1 highlight. He knew how to steam. Come to think of it, if you multiply your time on the job by 7, your career was about like Damon’s: short and meteoric but without the buyout.

After the legal expenses, the “buyout” Damon got might have been enough to buy a used collar and a box of dog biscuits.

Uga VIII is clear on the administration’s new thoughts on discipline and arrests, right? I don’t want to wake up on Tuesday morning and find out that he’s been suspended for UK and Florida because he wound up in the pound for having expired tags.

We’re gonna miss you Russ, you’ve tried your best to hold us together through a tough time, you may not get a stone crypt in Sanford Stadium, but you’ll always have a place in our hearts.
I bet, when you were chasing Miss Kitty very carefully around Charles’ house, you never thought you were going to be involved in a succession as complicated as the Tudors.
UGA the eighth I am, I am.

Better bury Russ in a shady spot when his time comes, that sorry temp was always on a bag of ice in the damned house when we needed some inspiration the early part of this season. Wouldn’t surprise me to see him tunnel Sonny’s yard up looking for a cool resting place. Good time to transfer the throne to a more deserving dawg. We need a mean, razor-toting Uga for the future if we are to get this ship back on course.

Didn’t know you were related to Lewis’ dog from college that could read and speak. Shouldn’t have cheap-shotted you though, talking behind your back. But you were one lazy dawg during gametime, and this record just ain’t gonna cut it. Afriad someone had to be sacrificed, and we need Mark to stay on. Enjoy your end of days, Savannah is very special to me. Now, bring on the Kid!!
