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

Yes, it was.

Too bad the 7-5-5 defense was illegal. Tennessee had that game otherwise.

I believe it was at some point between Derek’s 1st and 2nd seasons with the Vols when my then girlfriend, a Tennessee grad, said to me, “Well, we’re probably just prepping him so that y’all can steal him away from us in a few years.”
Trying as hard as I could not to sound patronizing, I replied, “Oh, now, I don’t really think there’s any chance of that happening.”
OK, maybe I didn’t really try all that hard not to sound patronizing.

I know we like to mock Dooley Jr. about “shower discipline”, but they had a really bad outbreak of staph infections among the team because they didn’t shower properly. I can see him in the locker room now yelling “You don’t wash your asshole before you wash your face! What is wrong with you?”
LikeLike
Staph infections happen a lot in locker rooms and gyms, and it has almost nothing to do with showering. It has a lot to do with maintenance cleaning the showers and other surfaces.

SOD’s instructions to the team may not be mockable, but him making those instructions public sure is.

Me too. Eat food the way they make it. People drive me nuts at fast food places making all their custom orders, it’s just a damn sandwich, not your last supper.

And the pre-made sandwich might’ve spent 5 hours under the heat lamp waiting for someone to order. You’d think someone concerned about hygiene would want a special order.

When I’m forced to eat fast food burgers I try to show consideration for those around me. I make a simple order and move out smartly to the condiment station. As my breath usually smells like a dead crab in the mud of Asshole Bay, in further consideration I wipe the raw onions off and and slop on ketchup and mayo. I like Duke’s. If it ain’t Duke’s it ain’t mayonnaise.

The only fast food join I know of that carries Duke’s is Hardee’s. That’s usually why I choose them for breakfast. I’ll add; if you ain’t buttering your hot dog bun with Duke’s, you ain’t livin’…

Yeah man. When Hardee’s did their apology and reboot to concentrate on burgers a few years ago the results were excellent. I looked forward to eating there on long drives. They’re back to their varied menu ways now. I tried their fish sammich. It was a Gordons frozen filet that Duke’s couldn’t make palatable.

Same here. Now, my wife does not like any of the available condiments, so she has to special order all sammiches, burgers, etc. She receives the wrong thing about 75% of the time, especially when we hit the drive-thru.
