heh. good to see ya back.

TOUCHDOWN, TENNESSEE!!!

Vols 35, Griz 9

Final score:

Vols 42, Griz 16

Biggest disappointment has to be the OL. I was really hoping they would look much improved. But they obviously still have a long way to go before they are at the level of the upper echelon SEC OLs.

...a looong way to go.

Hack,

I was getting ready for church one Sunday morning, and a show called 'Portlandia' came on some cable channel. Anyway, the theme song is pretty hillarious, and I found it on youtube. You've probably heard it, but if not it's pretty good. Is it accurate?

Wow. On the whole, I liked the game. However, the OL looked aweful. In fact, they maybe worse than last year's. WTF is up with Poole? I swear he was missing holes and running straight into a pile. Particularly early in the game.

How many fumbles did we have, 4?! That sucks.

We clearly have a ways to go. This could still be another long season. However, I enjoy watching my Vols, win or lose.

LSU looks like they are getting it done the SEC way against a solid opponent.

And, yes, the OL is pretty weak. Not getting a consistent 2 yard push against a 1-AA defense is a BAAAD sign.

I don't watch it, but my wife does. She likes it. From what little I've seen, the characters look like a bunch of weirdos. So yeah, I'd say it's probably pretty accurate.

Surprised OF realized UT actually won.

I've driven through Portland a few times, and made a couple of day trips there to see clients, but never really seen the city. A Portland transplant I know describes it as Seattle 25 years ago in size and attitude.

Growing to a larger city took a lot of the 'weirdness' out of Seattle, for good and bad.

I'm suprised Rat's mommy doesn't take the keyboard away from him. Seeing how he's still on the tit and all.

Really? Heh.

S. Florida beat Notre Lame. Wow.

And a big WTF to Auburn.

Correction: we had 5 fumbles. Dangit.

Portland's unofficial motto is: "Keep Portland Weird" -- and they're serious about that shit.

Just in case you think I'm joking...

A little 'weirdness' is a good thing. Otherwise you end up a large, vanilla, boring city with zero personality and no real identity, ala Atlanta.

Too much is too much, however. I think Seattle hits the sweet spot in that regard. Just enough 'weirdness' to be interesting without being irritating.

Any sort of participation in the grunge movement you'd like to share with us 'tone?

I agree. I like Seattle. I like it better than Portland.

Looking for another gay fantasy OF?
