    TV Series Not Worth Finishing

    This thread has taken a decidedly happy turn contra to instructions. I found “Sugar” a pleasant way to pass the time. Best to watch without looking at reviews and learning spoilers. Think old fashioned gum shoe with a hidden past.

    I have a love/hate with Hemingway. Sometimes he seems almost formulaic. But “Farewell to Arms” and “Old Man and the Sea” are two of the finest pieces of writing there are, in my opinion. PBS had a documentary about Hemingway that is excellent. “The Great Gatsby” by Fitzgerald is one of the...

    Some of the posters on this site played for him and he was not, shall we say, beloved. His biggest flaw of all was following Dodd. Nobody was going to survive that.

    That was a huge rivalry when my older brothers were at Druid Hills.

    OK, I was young but here is my memory, false or not. Dooley came in at uga and instituted very physical, hard practice sessions, reportedly even involving drills where players took helmets to the midsection, as well as tackling to the ground, and very slow whistles. Dodd, by contrast, was...

    Some say the fall of western civilization began when difficult to understand writing was automatically blamed on the author rather than the illiterate readers.

    Mongolian BBQ was a thing when it first showed up.

    Your First GT QB

    Yes. Several skill players were back. But lost an All American center and several starters on line and defense. Further problems came with injuries including a career ending one to snow.

    Bill Walton (look at this!)

    Coach Wooden said he was the best player he ever coached at UCLA. That’s a mouthful. I hated UCLA for the same reasons I used to hate Alabama in football and the Yankees in baseball. They were just too dominant for too long. But I loved watching Walton. An absolute vacuum cleaner under the...

    Your First GT QB

    I just remember Bud Carson came in to a much weaker team and much more difficult schedule which included Miami (fresh off a win against uga) plus Notre Dame, in addition to Tennessee, Auburn and uga. That was a killer lineup for a ten game schedule.

    I know lots of people who are fans but I was never that impressed. Used to be two or three good BBQ places near the Atlanta airport about 40 years ago.

    Your First GT QB

    As a child I practically cried over that 1966 uga game. We had a 99 yard drive, all on the ground, to go up 7-6 but they had a runner / punt returner named Kent Lawerence that was too fast for us. Dooley outcoached Dodd in that game and I think that was one of the reasons Dodd retired. The...

    Conference Realignment

    And I feel conflicted. I thought adding teams like Pittsburgh, Boston College and Syracuse would spice things up but every team the ACC adds seems to hit their lowest point historically, even Miami and FSU. Part of me thinks the ACC still might discover its secret sauce after all these years...

    Remote Work

    After moving 20 times in my life I think I’m finished. When I was younger I actually got restless after a few years in a place and looked forward to discovering a new place. Now I just wonder what to do with all my junk even though I’ve downsized several times. But out of all my moves I’ve...
