If Georgia wasn't already up for this weekend's game against the elephants from Tuscaloser, they are now - more proof that Nick Saban and his staff are idiots!

My Alma Mater kept the Victory Bell for the third year in a row! I was at the UC/Miami game on Saturday night and got to watch my Bearcats bring home a victory. Tony Pike looked great and in his first start since his Reading days, he completed 20-24 passes for 250+ yards and three touchdowns. While Miami was able to hang on for a little bit, Mike Mickens made sure he lived up to his "All-American" billing by picking off a pass and taking it back 72 yards for a touchdown - thus ending any Redsquawk threat. Below is a couple of my favorite shots from the game (via The Cincinnati Enquirer)

Listen to that sweet sound of "VICTORY"

"It's Saturday in Athens." This saying will never be the same again as Larry Munson has decided to put down the headphones and step away from the microphone. There is nothing like listening to that raspy voice call the action taking place in Athens and various locations in the deep south (depending on where the Dawgs are playing). I knew this day was coming when Munson decided to only do home games last year. While many of you know the love that Cincinnati has for Joe Nuxhall, that is the love that Larry Munson gets across the great state of Georgia. He has been the voice of Saturdays in the fall for over 40 years and he will be the voice the Bulldog nation can tie together with Dooley's Dawgs and the numerous accomplishments of Mark Richt's young men. Perhaps this video that I have placed below will give you chills as well...they hear it every Saturday afternoon (or night) in Athens.

Here is where I stand as of 10:13 a.m. on 9/19/2008 - 5 days late:

I live on the border of Hamilton County and Clermont County in Union Twp. We are in a condo community off of Beechwood and have numerous elderly people in our neighborhood - many of whom are on breathing machines and oxygen. My wife and I have been staying with my mother-in-law all week (she never lost power) and during the day we will run to the condo to check on the power (in the morning and afternoon after work). This morning she found a note on the door saying Duke came out to fix the power but brought the wrong equipment and now we have been placed on "low priority" for no apparent reason. They are saying it could be TUESDAY before I get my freakin' power back. I am not worried about my wife and myself, but to put all of those senior citizens through that much stress when Duke knows what the problem is, seems a bit out of touch. I have been understanding through this whole mess, but to show up and not fix the issue b/c you brought the wrong materials is wrong and it shows how unorganizaed everyone at Duke is.
