Well, I haven't posted in almost a year, but today I have something to say.
Don't count out the Florida Gators! Each time we've won the National Championship we've had a loss, and this year is not different!!
I'm not saying they're going to be in the big one, but if they beat Alabama (big catch) they should be in a decent bowl with good competition. And this year it is a whole team effort, not just Tim Tebow who's carrying the team.
If you haven't watched them, check out their special teams and a whole host of young running backs.
At any rate -- the Gators still growl--- and I still say "GO GATORS!!
For all of you doubters, Tim Tebow is the real deal. He is a gentlemen and a Christian, and plays with all of his heart. As for the rumors that his teamates consider him a ball hog--well that's plain hogwash. He doesn't call most of the plays where he's used.
Now, I have my doubts regarding whether or not a sophomore should win the Heisman. But with this young man and the fact that he throws himself into physical danger every week, injury is a real possibility at all times.
He won it on his accomplishments this year..and here's hoping that he stays healthy and we see him in the NFL--after he finishes four years at Florida of course!!
So hats off to Tebow for making it with a young team to support him. He has the Gator nation's hearfelt thanks for making what he did part of this season. Watch out world for UF next year!
Okay all of you Florida Gator Haters here's a news flash for you. You may not believe this so brace yourselves:
Hot off the press:
University of Florida's baseball team is not going to win a national championship. In fact we didn't even reach the regionals. We fired our coach And we are looking for a new coach. Are we whining? no. So those of you who think everything is going the Gator way can celebrate!
On posts on the fantasy boards to posts on blog sites, it appears that Pac 10 fans need to assert their superiority over those "poor chillin" in the Southeast.
Most SEC fans think the teams and coaches in the Pac 10 are good. Why do we have to hear justification and ridicule from Pac 10 fans continually?
I think Southern Cal has the best shot at a national football title. My friends and I can evaluate teams and coaches just as well as folks on the west coast.
All of the conferences have pluses and minuses, everyone doesn't agree on what makes a good coach, but to consistently belittle one conference and its coaches seems a bit much. As in --Don't Y'all have something better to do?
I'm a die-hard University of Florida GATOR fan, proud supporter of two national championships in 2007 and one in 2006. Yes I do teach History. Some of you are saying B0000RING, but I find it fun and so do my students.
I also support the Oklahoma Sooners especially when they're doing well. . I'm a huge fan of NCAA sports, somehow it loses its flavor when they get paid.
I have no children, except the hundreds I teach. I'm old as the hills, so don't bother to hit on me--as if anyone would!!!.
