[QUOTE="Northeast Stinger, post: 875010, member: 1640"] This starts an interesting reflection for me. It was my love of football (playing GrayY or whatever it was called) that caused me to see a Dodd team as a child. Fell in love with the old gold and white. All my support for Tech sports is derivative of that first love. If I quit following football at all levels (almost there) and quit following basket ball, it will probably start me on a slippery slope to abandoning all spectator sports. Though I will probably always watch The Masters each year. But realistically I will probably think of Tech in ways other than sports. Final note is that I worried before the start of last season that uga would end up being national champs. I saw no way anyone would beat them except Alabama and I knew they couldn’t beat them twice. It was another weird season with Covid hangover and the deaths of colleagues. I watched virtually no bowl games and watched the playoffs in piecemeal fashion. The only game I watched in earnest was the championship hoping against hope that Bama would save us from a national nightmare. But the dirtier and more dishonest program of the two came out on top. Yay dogs. The last three years have killed much of my love for the game and I’m even forgetting so much of what I used to know about it. It’s just not fun anymore. [/QUOTE]
