  1. How sad is it that I have not signed on to this site in several YEARS & this is the first post that jumped out at me???

    Sad I tell ya, so very sad...

    They had two good players and if they dont go for NFL then holy hell I cant wait to see what happens next year.



    I will go ahead and predict this now. Darren McFadden goes top 5 maybe even top 3 (imagine the Falcons with a dominant back) & Felix Jones goes before the end of the first round as well!

    Im a SEC fan through and through, but a playoff series is so much better than the shite we were delt.



    Exactly, and although Michael Adams (UGA President) didn't go about the right way; his playoff idea is the exact same setup I would push for if my opinion mattered...

    1) 8 teams, each major conference sends 1 (each major conference would pretty much have to have a championship game then) with two at-large bids.

    2) use the 4 bcs games then plus 2

    3) in order to keep it a one semester sport, shorten the layoff between the end of the regular season and the start of the bowls

    I would also never allow the "who gives a shite" games to happen after the start of the bcs playoffs.
    (i.e. Tulsa/Bowling Green this year)

    Of course this will never happen, but every other major sport (both college and professional) has a playoff system. Let it be settled on the field!

    I really wish those fuckheads at Notre Dame would join the Big 10. They already play Michigan, Michigan State, Purdue and Penn State almost every year. Although Navy and Air Force got lucky catching them this year, those two games really are gimmies every year.

    I have a problem with pompous asses who think they are God's gift to football and can get their own TV contract. :S And you wonder why they keep losing bowl games they really had no business playing in. [:/]



    Notre Dame will never join a conference unless forced. The reason: MONEY. :o

    If part of a conference, ND would have to open their books for one, & secondly they would have to share their bowl money and any TV revenue. :S

    Why would Georgia want USC instead of Hawaii, anyway?

    The Rose Bowl didn't have to take Illinois, but almost certainly would want them given the unusualness of their success. (Just as they would take Cal if the Bears and Mack Brown would let them).

    But also, the Sugar Bowl is traditionally slotted for an SEC team and since LSU was not available, they would want to have Georgia instead.

    C. When two bowls lose host teams, then the bowl losing the number one team may not select a replacement team from the same Conference as the number two team, unless the bowl losing the number two team consents.

    If I read this correctly, the Sugar Bowl people would have to consent to giving up Georgia, otherwise they are faced with an Illinois Hawaii game, not the most attractive billing to sell in SEC country.



    As a Georgia fan I want to see UGA matched up in a bowl against the team that poses the best challenge. This year that would have clearly been USC. The two hottest teams in the second half of the regular season.

    That is where I see the BCS as utterly flawed. If it were in place only to decide the championship game, I am fine with that. However, I was under the impression that the ideology was to place the top two teams in the MNC, then the best matchups in the remainder of the BCS decided games... In essence to get away from some of the "tradition", and in turn create "better" matchups.

    Of course an 8 team playoff is the most logical answer with each major conference having a championship game to decide who goes; with 2 wild card slots to allow for a second team from a dominant conference or an undefeated Hawaii team, etc.. Maybe then Notre Dame may have to play in a real conference :o

    I'm going with Ohio State . . . but UGA coulda kicked either team's ass if given the chance. :P



    Yep, that's what I think too. If Georgia hadn't blown it at Tennessee, they would be in there instead of LSU.


    We can only dream.

    The game I'd have loved to see was USC-Georgia. But if the BCS had given us that, there would be a lot of people thinking the winner was the "real" national champion, and realizing the BCS is a joke.

    I'm really interested in next year, though. The Dawgs are only graduating a couple key players, and most of them either have replacements who are looking as good or better (Thomas Brown for Knowshon Moreno, for example), or are surrounded by returning players who can probably make up for the loss. The only holes that I'm worried about are Marcus Howard and Brandon Coutu, and even then I'm not very worried.


    First off, everyone in the country wanted to see Georgia and USC in the Rose. However, the Rose bowl never even asked if they could bring in Georgia. This is the part that bothered me the most as a Georgia fan. I don't think we deserved to be in the Championship game after the way we lost to Tennessee. Which, if UGA had only taken care of Spurrier's Cocks like they should have this would have never been as issue... Anyway, I feel that the BCS did not want the Rose bowl to be bigger than the MNC. USC and UGA were by far the two hottest teams in the country as of the second half of the season.

    Georgia is returning 17 of 22 starters. That plays very well in the Dawgs favor. However, take a gander at next year's schedule: http://www.sicemdawgs.com/football/sched/fbsch_08.php I think we will be lucky to be 10-2 at the end of the season. I think coach Richt will have them ready for every game, but that schedule is brutal; especially on the road to LSU and Florida in back to back weeks (not that on the road to Carolina & Arizona State / then home for Alabama will be easy)!

    Losing Marcus, & Coutu hurts, but so does Brandon Miller. Blair Walsh looks like he could fill the Coutu void as a freshman. I also think you will see some changes in the D line. If signing day goes as though it looks right now, Georgia is picking up a few "immediate impact" recruits. Richt finally showed this year that if a true Freshamn is ready, he will play.

    The players I am most excited to see next year are Caleb King and AJ Green.

    Go DAWGS!

    By the way, for all those that didn't believe it before, yes the SEC is faster than the Big 10 as a whole!

    Better question - Where is My NEPHEW going to be?



    Most likely he will be on his mother's lap impatiently waiting for her to try and make him a personal batch of whipped cream? ;)

    If I could have anything right now:
    Just a few more of Beezys stories and another jump with Skinny.
    I just want to walk into Skinnys Trailer and see Beezy sitting there saying Just one and then I got to go while Skinny is sitting around bitching about everyone stealing his beer.

    Realistically:
    To get through a day without tears and to go for a LONG time without loosing anymore friends. That is all I want right now.



    Sounds like we would like to have the same things... [:/]

    And I appreciated everyone's donations to mine. :P



    Great comeback victory by the way!

    Thank you very much for donating the trophy back to The Farm! :)
    I know it means a lot to me, and to everyone else as well. J is planning to get a case for it and the "horse's ass" trophy so that both will be on display for everyone at the dz.

    Lee was, and still is, a great inspiration to the sport of skydiving. He has brought happiness to many and he has been crucial in The Farm's success.

    With that being said, I think it is only appropriate that I buy the Ash Dive for Lee.

    For those that would like to be on the load, please see Hans or manifest.

    I am greatly honored to have crossed paths with a person of wonderful character such as Lee.

    Peace. I will see all of you on Saturday.

    Greg,

    I think that is a very noble thing to do.

    The money that I would have gladly paid for my slot will now go directly in to the donation fund for Brandy.

    C-Ya Saturday,
    Ben

    side bet on which one of us goes out first? :ph34r:



    I tried to go out early last year and ended up splitting 1st & 2nd with Lee. I can't even remember how many times I went "All In Blind"... :ph34r:


    This game, I think!

    I was looking through my own photos and that's the only one I found of Lee - he's in his element but also hiding his face.

    Wish I could hug y'all in person this weekend, but know that I'm thinking of you and expecting drunk dials. :)


    That's the one!

    Around the horn is: Blaine (pyke), Sandy, Hans, Lee, Myself, Chaoskitty, & Billy

    Awesome!! :D:D:D Hell, maybe I will just go all in the first time I get 2 7, and see if I go out first. :ph34r:



    Well, I did 7 2 last night, but you can bet your ass first time I get a 6-9 tomorrow night, I'm all in!!!

    Theres several things there that will take getting used to.. Lee being gone, Redskins winning, Thursday night NFL games...

    See you tomorrow Benny?



    True... just all things I NEVER would have wanted to get used to... [:/]

    We will be there tomorrow. Hopefully by midday.

    Make sure to come see LCJ's attire, Jen has an idea... :)

  14. Lee and I went back and forth as to what we were betting on this game as he being the Redskins fan (of course), and me being a Bears fan.

    Unfortunately the bet was never decided upon, and more over a debt I will never have the opportunity to pay back (even though he would never really let me).

    Not that I am not already used to seeing the Bears lose; but this time it was much easier to stomache. [:/]

    These made me smile...



    Those make me smile as well!

    Myself, Popsjumper, & NWFlyer are also in that first pic!

    That was just before one of my most memorable jumps with Lee. That was the Skydive Radio / Pokerstars big way at last years Halloween boogie. Who would have ever thought a bunch of poker players who had never all jumped together could throw together a 15 way and it come together like it did on the first attempt, at sunset, just before the party started.

    That night was one of the best parties that I can remember. Lee kept Jen and I in stitches all night!
