Stay classy Georgia

the high horse attitude from dawg sports is palpable. they again blame everything but themselves for the loss, and even the editor went as far as saying something like “at least i can look at my kid and be proud that he is rooting for the bulldogs.” jeez. must be hard to breath being so high up in the atmosphere on your high horse. was he not paying attention to the fact that the announcers kept talking about both teams legal problems?

ive said it before, and ill say it again, that bulldog fans are the worst. i root for the dawgs every other saturday, but i cannot stand their fans in the least, except those i have known since the 6th grade.

btw, i love how they say that moving the game will change everything. talk about the excuse of all excuses…

Thank you Chas Henry!

I’ve been reading their site for a while, and generally like what their writers have to say, but I was a little surprised at the level of deflection after the game. The line referenced above was particularly nauseating…the one about being able to look my son in the eye. Give me a break. I’m not advocating an outlaw system where criminals run wild, but at the end of the day, this is University football we’re talking about. Urban Meyer is not our governor, he is our football coach. He is not our pastor, he is out football coach. Personally, I think that he cares greatly for the young men on his team, and genuinely wants the best for them. I hear this song and dance about Urban willing to do anything to win the loudest from the programs he beats the most often. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that both FSU and UGA fans are the loudest about their belief that Meyer is a cut throat, do anything to win coach….I call sour grapes on both fanbases, and personally, I tire of it all. Great game Gators, let’s keep this train headed in the right direction.

Cough. Cough. CHRIS F’n RAINEY!!!!! Cough. Cough. It must suck living in a glass house with so many classy broken windows.

I mean, it’s possible. Anything’s possible — he could be scratching his neck, yelling at his own players, etc. I think you’re reaching here, but, even if you weren’t, do you really want to go there? Urban Meyer was gator-chomping at UGA fans on the way off the field. Understand, I’m not keeping a moral tally here. Rather I’m just suggesting that this thread of discussion be left alone.

Good game, Gators. Better team won.

I don’t see Chas Henry in the picture, and Meyer’s antics vs. Auburn’s kicker a few years ago don’t leave you a lot of room to complain here.

Frankly, I don’t get the Gators’ need to manufacture outrage about dubious crap like this. You won. Be the gracious winner and move on.

if I lost 18 of the last 21 to my rival.

Lucky for me I’m 21 and have seen as many Gator football national championships as I’ve seen WLOCP losses.

No big deal – I’m sure the coach was just caught up in the moment. I’m also sure that Chas Henry wasn’t looking to the UGA sidelines for inspiration before his kick. So no harm no foul as far as I’m concerned.

Urban should never do the chomp toward opposing fans or players – that should be reserved to fire up his own team and it should just be left to the UF fans. He should just take the “no big deal – we expected to win” attitude and congratulate his players and walk off the field.

Chas Henry was the best punter on the field Saturday – which is saying a lot since the 2nd best punter in the nation was also on the field. He’s stepped up this season and done someone else’s job to the best of his ability. It’s too bad we didn’t have another kicker, because as bad as we’ve been this season, with a regular kicker, we might be looking at 7-1 right now instead of 5-3.

I’m ready to move on to Vandy. As we’ve seen already, NO game is going to be easy for us this season. I’m making my first trip to Nashville and looking forward to it.

This is why I like the University of Georgia so much; a great school, a great town, great tradition, and fans who flip out because their biggest rival has dominated them in the last 20 years. I honestly did not realize UF was UGA’s biggest rival until I went to Athens before my senior year of high school and saw a store called “Gator Haters”. I always considered FSU and Tennessee the biggest rivals.

The hand gesture is a play signal. If you watch enough football (or baseball), you’ll see coaches make this gesture a dozen times a game. It’s easy to do, to recognize and to understand. That’s why they do it.

But, by all means, please continue to make productive use of your day.

Supposedly, Meyer dismissed one of our highly regarded 2010 recruits today. Does anyone know which player?

Randy Moss was just released by the Vikes….I know, completely off topic, but WOW

Throughout this entire thread, all you have done is bash Florida and Urban Meyer. Why are you even posting on this site if you do not like the Gators?

That was one helluva game. Good job Gators. That offense was making my head spin, there was just so much to account for…. Who was behind the changes? Urban or Addazio???? couldn’t be the latter…

That I’ve seen Urban get “fired up” this season. Finally!!! There’s no doubt that a coaches fire/emotion translates into his players energy/performance. I guess if you can’t get jacked up for UF/UGA then its time to hang it up. If a coach sits on the sidelines like an emotionless robot (Randy Shannon, Tyrone Willingham) then everything goes to hell. Looking forward to 11/27

Guess I’m not getting that 10 minutes of my life back.

Go Gators – Beat Vandy!

There are large amounts of classless asshats in both fan bases, and each one chooses to ignore it’s own and lambaste the others.

Each university has a lot (a lot) of arrests. Each punishes kids in a semi-but-not-entirely consistent manner. There are excuses for each case (only if it’s your team) and reasons to raise holy hell in others (if it’s the other team).

Take a moment to step in the other fan-bases shoes. They hate you, they hate your team and they will nit pick every last decision that is made re: discipline while glazing over their own teams transgressions. Shit happens. Glass houses abound.

Urbs gets a little more credit for being a robot mercenary in part because Richt is always regarded as a bible-toting, jesus-loving individual.

Calling all your TOs when the game is over. Dick Move? yes, but if I were an UF fan I would just say “fuck you UGA, suck it”. Same way I say, “Grantham wants their kicker to choke? Good, suck it UF”

It’s a rivalry, and a very heated one. Coaches want to win, players want to win, they want to embarrass the other team. Peoples JOBS are on the line in these kinds of rivalries. This isn’t golf. This isn’t a gentleman’s sport. You can go watch tennis or bowling or baseball if what you saw Saturday bugged you so much.

oh yea that was a made up excuse.
