Heehee... you have a mean streak, Randy Lyons. I like that. LOL. Cee ----- Original Message ----- From: Gatornet Admin To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, May 11, 2009 12:08 PM Subject: [gatortalk] Re: [SUN]: Vols, Kiffin deal with defections
My daughter just got a divorce from her first husband. Although he was a bit
odd, I had 12 years of time invested in converting him from a UNC Tarheel to a
gator. Now, he bleeds O&B, but I have to start all over. It was easier with
Todd (ex-husband), because he was from the ACC and didn't already have any
animosity for the gators. If Chris (current boyfriend) sticks around, I have my
work cut out for me. He has told me that he will convert my daughter before I
will convert him! I told him if he does, she'll lose her inheritance! ;-)
On Saturday, he was here all day, and I proudly wore my 2007 Game Day t-shirt
of the UF-UT game. It's the one that says the vols came to play, but the gators
came to feast, and shows a big mean-looking gator ready to pounce on a little
hound dog playing with a ball. Chris was not amused and pretty much speechless,
but dad was very happy.

LOL. I'm also very glad that my daughter married a Gator. He actually
grew up in Oklahoma, but he had sense enough to become a Gator fan when the USN
brought him to Florida. ;-)

I'm SO glad my daughter married a UF grad as an Athletic Trainer. Makes
life smooth.

My daughter has a new boyfriend, who happens to be a passionate vols fan.
I've tried to take the high road and say "we're gators first, and SEC second",
"we cheer for UT in every game but one", etc, etc, etc. Nothing has worked.
He told me last night that despite how I feel about the SEC, UT, etc, he
would be happy if Florida lost every game we played regardless of who we were
playing, blah, blah, blah. I finally gave up the "high road" and started trash
talking, of which I'm pretty good at. We had to be separated by my wife and
daughter.
Of course, I wanted to beat the vols convincingly in September for
Kiffin's sake, but now I want to BURY them just so I can rub it in BIG TIME! :)

YEP! This is the kind of crap that I'm hearing from the majority of
Vols fans around here. The ones that are appreshensive (which are only a few
that I know) are taking the lets wait and see approach, but are very hopeful.
I find very curious that they don't understand what all the fuss is about with
his comments and think that us Gator fans are being overly sensitive.

Oliver and Shane will probably agree with me, but I can tell you that
the vol fans LOVE him! They say he reminds them of SOS in the 90's and they are
hoping for the same kind of results we had with SOS.

Which leads to the question - who hates Kiffin the worst?
His own fans? - tired of "all hat and no cattle", "all flash no
cash", etc
His staff? - Kiffin raises the bar - when they have no talent to
jump that high
Other SEC schools? Kiffin accusing them of cheating then we find
out it is Kiffin that is violating rules
His own players? - leaving the team in droves.

Vols, Kiffin deal with defections

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. - A total of 11 Tennessee players with
scholarships have left the Volunteers football program under new coach Lane
Kiffin, including four since the end of spring practice.
A team spokesman confirmed that wide receivers Ahmad Paige and
Tyler Maples, offensive guard Darris Sawtelle and quarterback B.J. Coleman have
left the program since the team's Orange and White scrimmage game on Apr. 18.
Kiffin, who was introduced at Tennessee last December, said
during a Big Orange Caravan stop earlier this week that he only wants players
who want to play for the Vols.
Tennessee is allowed a total of 85 scholarship players each
season under NCAA rules.
