Title: So, I was in tears Post by: VinnieVOL on October 20, 2013, 12:37:47 EDT Can't really explain it and unless you've been a Vol fan for the last 4-5 years you wouldn't understand. Time and time again we were so close to have it yanked out from our hands, and they finally did it. I literally cried. I know, it's not like we won the SECC or anything... but it hit me hard.

Then I remember what a complete disaster UT athletics has been for several years and feel that we all-- players, fans, students-- needed this so bad that I just don't care.
Needed this so freaking bad. Title: Re: So, I was in tears Post by: PirateVOL on October 20, 2013, 12:47:05 EDT Earlier I got this queasy feeling because we shouldn't be as ecstatic as we are.

A beautiful and long-awaited moment. Let's make it a habit. :dude:

I listened to the 3rd Qtr on Sirius while driving to the wedding, which was at a country club. My dad and I ended up in the club lounge on the phone with my brother, who was giving us play by play of the final moments of the game. The bartender asked us if we wanted to change the channel to the game, and we both shouted "NO NO NO! ". Neither of us could bear to watch the end! I agree that the curse is broken!
