I am having a very hard time deciding what part of the Steven Garcia being hired by Saturday Down South to do something (“I am definitely going to be doing it, but I am not exactly sure what I am going to be doing”) story is the most Garcia-ish.
I mean, there’s this…
Garcia, who is once again sporting hair to his shoulders, was interviewed and hired at a blackjack table at the Hard Rock Casino in Tampa, Roberts said.
… and then there’s this:
“He said, ‘Do you want me to cut my hair?’ I said, ‘No, all of our fans call it the Stephen Garcia Mullet. You have to keep it,’” Roberts said.
What is it about South Carolina quarterbacks and mullets?
I’m going to go out on a limb here and suggest that alcohol was involved.

I agree with Blutarsky. Alcohol had to be involved.

Yes they are both blogs, but SDS is a bit more newesy. They write opinion pieces and cover the entire SEC. I would say it is more similar to Dawg Sports.

But isn’t SDS written by an FU grad/fan? If so, all credibility is lost up front by his use of the descriptive word “south” to describe Florida. But it does explain his love of all things “mullet”.

Man, I grew up on fried mullet.
We had an Oyster Bar in town, and the owners would drive to the Gulf early every morning and pick up the mullet and oysters off the boats. They had a way of filleting the mullet so that it butterflied, and you got the whole fish in one piece. It covered the whole plate.
Man, I miss that. Very fresh mullet is awesome. They were open almost 50 years, but closed in the ’90’s when they all finally died.

Me too. I didn’t even know until after I left home that people who didn’t love them thought they were bottom feeders but mullet, bream and flounder were good enough for us. Of course, we ate squirrel too because why not
“But here, where the humble, torpedo-shaped fish fills our waters, mullet is seen as the saltwater equivalent of a bottom-feeder like carp.”

Not me. When my sons were in HS and played sports they would push it to grow their hair long. No haircuts over the summer breaks. In college when no one cared… one son wore his like he was running for public office and the other buzzed his like he was in the military. lol.

Don’t be too hard on yourself. How many knew that going to the Hard Rock Casino in Tampa was the way to find an interview at the blackjack tables? You’ll always have the Montana Project* and odds are that will be a lot longer than Steve G. will have the Saturday Down South gig because

In SDS’ case, I suspect “hiring” isn’t exactly the same thing as paying a decent living wage.
