Thank you. That is all. Carry on.
What's the phrase I'm looking for? I know I have seen it around here before ... Just a sec .. Oh here it is BITE ME!There, I feel better. If you play a round, be sure you let us know what you scored on the BACK 9 as well!

But we play SC in Knoxville.
My only game I would disagree is the UF game, because it is in hogtown. Even though I think we will match up well with the crocs, given how young the team is going into the swamp and winning may be too much to expect, especially since this will be the first road game we play.

Okay, that's not a bad point of view. The average poster on here might be more intelligent than those on Volquest or Volnation (which seems a low standard, from what I have heard, lol) but I have seen posters on here be quite negative on Simms and Crompton. I hope Bray lives up to expectations, but I am tempering mine until he faces a real D.
I was one of those bashing Crompton. One good thing came out of the loss to Auburn (and Crompton't horrific 1st 3 quarters) is that the staff saw something they could work with Crompton to make him a serviceable QB - you saw the results against the pups the next week. Yes they got him moving around which helped but look at how many back side throws he attempted in the first five games vs from 10 October on (I would submit he completed more back side throws to the opposition than to Orange jerseys in those five games). Oh, and the end of the bamer game hurts to this day.

My sweet husband just found out that he has melanoma....they are going to do a lymph node biopsy next Monday morning to see if it has spread. If you are of the praying sort, please remember my husband in your prayers and pray that this is contained to the spot on his face.
You and Dean are both in my thoughts and prayers Becky

Anybody thought what might happen with conference alignment if two schools from the Big 12 (10) came into the SEC? Guess which Western Division schhols are the furtherest East?
Say hello to the two schools +/- I-65.

Bullshizzle.....I call total bullshizzle on you this time....first of all let us look at data that is contained in databases for the last one hundred and fifty years concerning the temperature average in the summer in New York City. Over the course of 150 years of climate data the temperature in New York City (one of the oldest temperature monitotring efforts in the country) the average temperature over that period is an increase of 0.1 degrees farneheit. That is one tenth of one degree increase. During that time what has occurred in New York City? Yes that is right they have increased the amount of heat sink in New York City by an astounding 3500%. Thats right the heat sink that is New York City has increased 35000 times than the average temperature has increased. (BTW a heat sink is anything that absorbs heat and all that concrete in those buildings is a big heat sink.) Therefore the average temperature in comparison to the growth of heat sink material has FALLEN. Yep fallen.....
The "world is failing cause we are raising the heat levels" is not a provable fact. In fact during the Jurrasic period heat levels were higher then than they are.
Give it up, those that worship at the God of AGW cannot be reasoned with. Facts mean NOTHING to them.

A couple of weeks ago I read an article by a NASA scientist which reported that data retrieved by a NASA satellite indicated that much more heat was escaping the earth's atmosphere than GWs had projected and he was being dismissed because he belonged to a group that espoused creationist philosophy. GW is so political that it is scary and the willingness of gov't to support changes and legislation that negatively impact us economically based on computer models and/or insufficient/manipulated data. It seems obvious to me that it is greenie religion and not science that is the biggest factor driving it....why else implement changes with such negative impacts when there is soooo much we don't know?
Yep, real emprical data put to LIE the ENTIRE global warming MYTH! As much as the the human hating jackasses that DOCTORED the data repeatedly, including algore the attack whinner, emperical data has repeatedly PROVEN AGW a MYTH! Hell, the leaders of the AGW worhopers aren't even scientists!

If we could add just one team to the east, UNC would be my pick. But there's no way they're leaving the ACC. I'd like to gain a foothold in NC too, but UNC is really the only one worth having. Duke doesn't bring much to the table other than hoops, and they're also not leaving the ACC. That leaves NCSU, and I don't see that they would add much if anything to this league. So I think we should concentrate on VPI and FSU to the East, and TAM and OU/Missou to the West.
Slive wouldn't touch UNC with a 10 foot pole in any case.

Well BG knows he doesn't want to steal me cause he would end up sleeping on his couch all of football season since his wife made him sleep on the couch for a whole week in 2003 after she ate some of my cooking at a tailgate down in Tuscaloosa......
We should get some of the pix of Dax running around in the VOL head gear at that tailgate to post for MIAUTIGER so he knows what is going to happen to his kids ...
