I've watched it 7,908 times as trained official and I haven't seen foul yet.
What gives? A. Leon Polhill, Gator Friends are the family that we choose for ourselves. ________________________________ From: Bill Hood <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Sun, November 1, 2009 10:34:09 AM Subject: [gatortalk] Re: Brandon Spikes getting aggressive in the pile The camera is very selective as to what it picks up. There’s a ton of back and forth dirty play, jawing and just downright low shots from both sides. These teams hate each other and disrespect each other. There were a number of times that the refs had to break up possible or brewing altercations. Personal foul flags flew all night long. There’s no way to “defend” nor should we. I love the fact that someone catched a 3-4 second clip and make that the focus of the personality of a player or the team. We weren’t there and in the mix. We have no idea how many things were done or said throughout the game, heck even text messages and facebook/myspace shots…If you want to understand the character of a man, walk a mile in his shoes. If people want to call him a thug…have at it. Use it as a talking point and justify your hatred for the Gators or Spikes. Good players are targets both for honest play and dirty play alike. I feel confident that it wasn’t the first poke and won’t be the last…on either side from any opponent. Welcome to football and welcome to one of the most hated rivalries in football. Love always… Bill Hood GO GATORS !!!!!!
