From Athens-Oh Joy more snow was created by yankeedawg1
Good Morning All,
Remember today is Valentine’s Day Sweets for the Sweet
Flowers if only a single rose will be appreciated
Crazy just saw group cross country skiing in front of the Arch on the local TV news
Georgia is bent out of shape with all the snow and ice
She looks at me and asks,
Do I have any idea what it feels like to sit your butt on a block of ice and try and do your business? Well not exactly I answer
Told her I would have that fixed by June
That got me a low growl as she went and curled up in front of the fireplace Man’s best friend
Thus far we have been able to avoid any power outages - Thank You God!
I want to go back to last week’s post- Happy I Am
Just to clarify:
I am not happy that CMR gets a pass and still remains HC
I am not happy the Mac is a scrooge with our money; I understand he has Bosses -But….. he still can do his part
I am not happy with the “The Group” holding their interests ahead of our football program.
Always waiting until push comes to shove before doing a damn thing
I am not happy that the senior year of one of the best college QB’s was wasted by a clueless Towel waving idiot and his underperforming staff
CCW excluded
Correction makes that the last two years of AM’s career
Never should have come down to the last 5 yards IMHO
We hung enough points on CKS defense to win which CNS understood and acknowledge the Tide dodged a bullet
Given time I am sure I could come up with more to my IANH list
Now what Happy I Am about:
TG has a new mailing address. He is out of Athens and the SEC.
We have hired a staff on the defense and beefed up the ST side of the ball
This new staff has a proven history of taking talent and coaching them up. This one point is a radical change for our program. This is a happy point because it is an opportunity for improvement
Mark Wohlers was a relief pitcher for the Braves some years ago and was the first I heard use-
“Success is when opportunity and preparation meet”
For me there is a bunch of meat in that quote.
I have used it as a business management teaching tool many times
I am happy about CBM being named our new Recruiting Coordinator
Past time for a boost in his pay you hear that Scrooge!
Just think that with CJP and his crew added in CMB,CTB,and CBM we have upgraded
Yes I know we have for the most part always have recruited well
Coaching was the main issue once they hit campus
Ogredawg posted he was happy that I was happy-Thanks
I hope you understand why I am leaning with caution toward happy
Just to be sure… I know we still need to prove the “Happy” on the field
It sure feels better talking about our future with the possibilities that these changes present
The alternative was trying to endure another season of Towel Toddy leading our defense. That friends is a major Not Happy!
From Bernie’s site-
My advice to defensive players: take the shortest route to the ball and arrive in a bad humor."
- Bowden Wyatt
Much truth in that statement
If given he opportunity Thank a Vet this week
Pause and give thanks
Have a great weekend and safe week
Wlayton better make that Irish Coffee to knock the chill off
As always “Go Dawgs”!!!

yankeedawg1, many good points again in your post. Know that many up that way have been and are still going through a lot. Sometimes we get a little complacent, don't appreciate things like utilities, until we have to do without them. Understand that there is the possibility of another front moving in.
Speaking to the changes being made in Athens surrounding the football program, there are some coaching lessons to be learned if all are willing to open their minds.
Happy Valentines Day to all . . . .

Edit: yd1, went back and read your post again, I normally do that with almost every post on this board. One of the reasons I returned to your post was this particular sentence. If ever the the truth was told, this is it.

Really great post yd1 and yes, I have plenty of Irish coffee for you and Georgia (she won't notice the ice after one cup).
Agree with everything you posted except ONE FOR SURE, and I quote....."TG has a new mailing address. He is out of Athens and the SEC."
Simply wish he was STILL in the SEC and especially in the EAST......
All the best to you and everyone in north Ga and surrounding areas.....I pray the utilities stay in perfect working order.
Do you like cream and sugar with your Irish coffee?....stay warm!
Everybody have agreat weekend.
