Pre-Tech News and Notes

First of all, here's Pulpwood's latest prediction: It involves whipped backsides and a pink shirt. Pulpwood calls from jail where the rules on cussin' are different than at your office, so check your employee handbook regarding use of company computers to access foul mouthed monkey speak about your favorite football team.

Perennial spring superstar and one time second string tailback Jason Johnson was forced to give up football due to a spinal condition. Johnson saw action in several games this year, rushing for 22 yards on 9 attempts. Jason has been a good Dawg for the past four years and we wish him well.

If you are still following the beauty contest and perpetual P.R. campaign known as the Heisman race, Georgia's players have some bold statements for you. They don't like Tebow, as Kelin Johnson said, "He doesn't have my vote." (Kelin, by the way, doesn't actually have a vote.) Tebow's lackluster play in Jacksonville has blinded us to the fact that he is the first player in NCAA history to run for twenty touchdowns and throw for twenty more. Stafford picks Oregon's Dennis Dixson, even though he is out for the year with an ACL tear. Kelin's actual pick was Darren McFadden, although Rennie Curran said "we would destroy him, too." Easy there, Rennie. I still have memories of McFadden's last trip to Athens rattling around in my head causing significant trauma.

The background comments on that video aren't needed because that is what every knowledgeable football fan should be saying.

I know this is the Georgia SPORTS Blog, but special mention needs to go out to Deep Shah and Katherine Vyborny. These two UGA students were awarded Rhodes scholarships this week. That's two more Rhodes scholars than Vanderbilt, Florida, and Georgia Tech. Please remember this when confronting Tech fans this weekend.

BEAT TECH!

Best wishes to DGD Jason Johnson.
I was hoping he would get a few more plays while Brown was out and I am still pulling for him on the next chapter in his life.

Deep Shah. What a FANTASTIC name!

"Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets. A lotta y'all done forgot about this rivalry because they suck."

Any idea whether Pulpwood was a Rhodes finalist or not? Because that's freakin' brilliant.

Pulpwood was not, in fact, a Rhodes finalist, but he DID spend one summer abroad studying at Oxford. And I do mean the one in jolly old England, not the one in Newton County.

Given what I've been told about his time there, I think all he studied was the History of Adult Beverages in Foreign Lands, but isn't travel supposed to be a broadening experience

I am not making this up. P-wood is twisted, but he's well educated.
