[QUOTE="GTpdm, post: 617397, member: 1451"] Gameday...finally. It has been a long year for me. Last year on this day, I sat in the Grady Burn Center ICU, waiting for my condition to deteriorate. (You read that right; the doctors told me that things would get much worse before they got better, and boyo, they weren't telling me the half of it.) My wife pulled up the Alcorn State game in the TV in my room (...a pox on that accursed school; every time we play them I end up in the ER...), but it held no real interest for me. Bad stuff happened; we'll leave it at that. I was discharged the day after the Clemson game. The remainder of September and October were spent clawing my way back toward normalcy, but eye damage meant that games on TV were mostly just a blur...and actually reading any Gameday threads here was a bust. I could only really listen to the games on radio. I made it to the Duke tailgate (not the game...mercifully, as it turned out). I made it through half of the Miami game (and by that time, my eyesight had recovered enough both to see the game and to participate in GSwarm). I made it through the whole Virginia game, overtime possessions included. That was my season. I know all this is not the upbeat kind of story that belongs in the Gameday thread; I've relayed it to you only so that you can fully understand what I am about to say: [SIZE=5] Life is good. Gameday is better.[/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
