I thought I was the talker doing the inviting, but let's not quibble. A. Leon Polhill, Gator

I am simply disturbed by the uniform view of the world presented by the fewer print media sources that we have available. A.

Those would be subjects that, as Leon implied, are best kept out of Gatortalk. -Zeb On Sep 10, 2009, at 10:04 AM, [email protected] wrote: Thank you for the invitation, Leon. Is taking something to THFGT the same as asking someone to step outside? I'd love to join THFGT, but I suspect if I did, I'd spend way too much time arguing with people, and my work and home life would suffer. It would definitely be a guilty pleasure, but my wife and son would probably kill me. Thank you for the kind invitation, but I think I better decline. Go Gators!!!! Ken B.

It's important. How and when we get our news rocks. Let's go. A.

Just joking, Leon. And, not looking to get into THFGT territory, but . . . . Regarding newspapers, yes, unfortunately, there are fewer and fewer (back when my father was young, New York city had ten or twelve daily newspapers). However, with the Internet and cable television, I'd say there are probably more, and more diverse sources of news than before. One can argue about the quality and reliability of some of these sources, but one could make the same arguments about old media as well. Go Gators!!!! Ken B.

I just ate breakfast. I'm cuddled up in my favorite easy gliding easy chair with my laptop with separate wireless mouse and keyboard reading the GatorNews, and the first thing I find out is: "Vomit dripping from his chin strap, Florida receiver Riley Cooper stared an overmatched Charleston Southern cornerback in the eyes Saturday night and then sprinted straight for him." "Vomit dripping from his chin strap,..." Please give me a break. Stretch for an interesting metaphor, try enuendo, make a suggestive remark, but please don't say 'vomit' as the first word in any sentence. Jeesh! Particularly not in a morning newspaper. BTW, Helen might help on this, are there any afternoon papers left? I doubt if there are. Many of the morning papers are having trouble. The monopolization of American enterprise continues. Anyway, 'vomit' is not the first word I want to read in anything. 'Nuff said. A.

Vomit dripping from his chin strap, Florida receiver Riley Cooper stared an overmatched Charleston Southern cornerback in the eyes Saturday night and then sprinted straight for him. Cooper faked to the inside ever so slightly before cutting off his route and biting hard for the sideline. The cornerback never had a chance. Quarterback Tim Tebow hit Cooper in stride for a first down. It was Cooper's third reception in a row in Florida's new no-huddle offense. Cooper motioned to the sidelines. He needed a replacement, but before he could make it off the field, Cooper became ill and vomited. He had the flu. His night was over -- or so he thought. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
