UGA vs UNC?
OT but because you’re dying to know: UMd Men’s Lacrosse won the Big 10 lacrosse championship today, beating a tough Rutgers team. Tomorrow the undefeated women’s team will beat a badly outgunned Northwestern team for the women’s 2016 Big10 lacrosse championship. Both will play for the Nattys, later this month.

Bulldawg36 talk about an even playing field
Hey when ya hungry you figure it out
Hey I’ve seems some hunters punch an animal. Lol
Bulldawg36 we hunt with guns not fingers!!
Well I figured some of y’all are more country than I am. Maybe they’re some hunters on here
Brooklyndawg Hobnailboot aka RobG Bulldawg36 LOL!!!
Hobnailboot aka RobG Brooklyndawg Bulldawg36 Bad luck to celebrate before a baby is actually born. So I was taught as a child. But this isn’t any special thing, I’m always grumpy##
Brooklyndawg Hobnailboot aka RobG Bulldawg36 I bet that PB had that raccoon messed up then….lockjaw
Hobnailboot aka RobG Bulldawg36 We feed our “vermin” (lol) out back where we feed our small deer herd. One thing I didn’t know is that raccoons can’t produce saliva so they have to wet their food with water. We have a well-supplied small upper and lower pond connected by a stream that they like. It’s neat to watch them.
Brooklyndawg Hobnailboot aka RobG Bulldawg36 HEY GET OFF MY LAWN!!!! geez Brooklyn, why are you such a grump? ##
Bulldawg36 The once mighty softball teams is a shadow of its former self this year.
You’re right about that
Bulldawg36 Raccoon’s are smart animals, I saw one scrounging around in a trash can at a hotel once, it got a jar of peanut butter and spun it around in it’s little hands and after about 45 seconds figured out how to get the lid off, it was kind of neat actually, he never saw me so he was oblivious, or he just didn’t care that I was watching and was more concerned with the peanut butter
Bulldawg36 Let me ask a simple question…why would you think that any one of us would know that? Here’s an idea, if you really need to know, Google he question. I’m betting a raccoon has a greater bite force but a possum’s teeth are not to be messed with. BTW, both species can carry rabies.
I’m all for a new baseball coach
Bulldawg Bob2 Bulldawg36 We were winning 7-1, I believe, then completely imploded. Might be getting on time to consider new coaches for our teams that play with small, medium, and large size balls, on the diamonds or courts.
True
Hey I’m just asking a simple question. Lol
Bulldawg36 both could be bad news
Bulldawg36 Xanax would help you…..
Lmao! That’s true!
Hobnailboot aka RobG Bulldawg36 NOT before the baby is born!
Lol. You don’t have an opinion on which bite would be stronger?
Bulldawg36 your wife is a soon to be mother, so now you have a reason
Bulldawg Bob2 RobDawg Is it club lacrosse, like our ice hockey team?
Bulldawg Bob2 Bulldawg36 depends on who’s hand you use
Thanks bob, don’t really celebrate it because I don’t know my mothers phone number or where She lives. Plus my in – laws are over seas
Bulldawg36 Option C. Just don’t do it
Bulldawg36 lol
Which one would be the worse decision? Hand feeding a raccoon or possum?
Rats!!!!!
Bulldawg36 Mother’s Day is tomorrow, on Sunday
Bulldawg36 No. Lost a close one 7-9

RobDawg Yes. UGA Women’s Lacrosse team won National Championship
https://twitter.com/UGAWomensLax/status/729043992466358272
Did the softball team win today?
Diamond dawgs struggling down the stretch- will be lucky to finish with a winning record
From what I can gather from the internet, it seems to be club lacrosse.
DawgDaddy I can’t get it to play
What is the Southeastern Women’s Lacrosse League? Is that an unofficial non-UGA sanctioned league? Well, they won it, whatever it is.
I’m not saying a word…..
DawgDaddy Greg Poole I believe it was manure
Greg Poole Bulldawg36 Usually you can get one lit with 2 shots of bourbon! 🙂
DawgDaddy The Master’s is about the experience they are not worried about making money on the patrons….wish everywhere was like that
Did y’all see this today on the DawgBone board? This one is crazy IMO.
http://www.fieldstforum.com/2016/05/07/recruiting-this-is-quite-possibly-the-strangest-commitment-video-ive-ever-seen/
Brooklyndawg there are at least 2 different kinds at my house…the screech and one that stands about 2 foot tall, and light colored feathers, not sure what kind, maybe a Barn?
ZippyMorocco Brooklyndawg the only thing you can expect is a roller coaster ride of emotions when you’re a Dawg fan
Can someone confirm – it looks like UGA women lacrosse just claimed National Champion title
Interestingly, I have never heard or seen any type of owl around here.
Brooklyndawg I saw a screech owl this am at my house, I did not realize how small those things are, or how loud….geeez
It’s all good…just not jumping on any bandwagons quite yet…but I like what I’m seeing so far…
Just kidding with ya brotha- hope you are having a great weekend
Haha……maybe
i know I’ve asked a lot guys!!! But hunker down just one more time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is Mother’s Day today or tomorrow?
Bansai will then be on the phone calling for Richt to come back!######
Brooklyndawg
Well, my first day at UGA was the flea flicker game. I have seen it all. I have seen us lose to Tulane and and Wake Forrest. I have seen us beat everyone. After 50 years of watching, I don’t know what to expect.
Forgot to say we also have about a dozen or so different species of birds (and 20 bird feeders, not counting the hummingbird stations), a flock of crows, a Cooper’s Hawk and a Redtailed Hawk, plus squirrels, chipmunks, lizards, and tree frogs. No snakes or mosquitoes….pest control.
LOL!!!!!!!
Bulldawg36 I’m wid ya!
LOL
DawgDaddy I tried the AJC and finally got it twisted up but….
Greg Poole and it is difficult to find rolling papers that big. haha
DawgByte, No imagination required – you will see it in the Dome.
Bulldawg36 I gave up on smoking turkey – couldn’t get one lit.
Bulldawg36 Your fingers are safe
LOL! So what you gonna do if Georgia goes 8-4 for this season?
And then what happens if the Dawgs go 12-0 in 2017?
Giving Kirby and company this year….that’s it….after all we are suppose to be upgrading….my 2 cents…
Poor coaching cost a loss
Wow. That boy is some kind of strong.
Dang I wouldn’t expect that. Love west Athens tho
You go Pontiac Catalina!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bulldawg36 Yes, because there are no tested, validated, replacements yet.

I didn’t get the notification because I’ve only had the car a couple of months. I just put the VIN in at the savercar.gov. And it said it had a recall for the airbag like u said. Said the recall was incomplete
Bulldawg36 It depends on the size of the bird. I go by temperature more than time. For poultry that means, 175° F. A 14 to 16 lbs turkey takes about 5 to 7 hours if I smoke at an average temp of 230° F
Bulldawg36 And down below you say only crazy people would do that. OK…..
Bulldawg36 Probably for the airbag? We got a notification in the mail for one of our cars but it wasn’t a bring it in, it was we’ll let you know when suitable replacements have been made available. Until then, you may die…..
I’ll have to try some of your smoked turkey one day!! How long do you smoke that turkey?
Bulldawg36 Glad to hear you, Mrs.BD36 and the little one are doing A-OK.
We are probably going to head over to the in-laws for Mother’s Day. I’m smoking a turkey; so, we will all eat too much and complain about eating too much afterwards lol
Y’all going over your mothers house tomorrow? We doing good the baby is growing like it should…it’s a blessing I didn’t see coming. Lol
Bulldawg36 LOL. All depends on if you enjoy getting shots for rabies or not ####
I’m doing good BD36. Getting ready for Mother’s Day tomorrow. How are you and Mrs. BD36 and that bun in the oven?
My Pontiac vibe has a recall!!!!! Gawd I hate cars!!!!!!!
Yeah we will be ok. But will I be ok after feeding the raccoon? ####. How are u doing today Bob???
DawgByte Reddawg13 Greg Poole we have some weapons now!
Bulldawg36 If, and this is a big “if”, Coach Rocker did take the Alabama job, it is not the end of the world. Yes. It is difficult to replace coaches this time of year, but it is not impossible.
Georgia will be OK.
If we lose rocker…..ill feed a raccoon by hand
Brooklyndawg Hahahahaha. LOL. Aye. Thanks Brooklyn
LOL, Bob…..Freudian slip there?….Coach “Saban” and UGA match any offer ‘Bama puts on the table!!! See, I DO read what you write! OK, CKS becomes the Saban of the SECeast?
DawgByte Its a “story” all right, but I wouldn’t necessarily call it a “news” story.
You sort of contradict yourself. On the one hand you cite the clear areas of concern and the unknowns many of us may share with you, which is most of the positions, ATM, yet on the other you say it’s hard to imagine we don’t improve on last year’s 10 win season. That’s a stretch by your own arguments. Now, if you had said you can’t see us not improving on last year’s overall play, and consistency, which may not translate i to more than 10 wins, I’d buy that…jmho
I reported last night that the Tracy Rocker to Alabama is nothing more than rattling of sabers. While it is true that Rocker is on Alabama’s list of candidates and that he could be contacted if that is the case, we have not been able to verify if that is the case. It is not impossible that he would leave to take a job at Alabama, the Crimson Tide would have to fork over some serious cash for this to happen.
Why? Tracy Rocker was given an associate head coach title and raise. Plus, his son is in school here in the local area.
What about reports on Tracy Rocker and Jeremy Pruitt’s relationship, is it friendly, tolerable, can they not stand one another? No one knows but the coaches. There
Why didn’t Bulldawg Illustrated have a write up on Tracy Rocker? Because it is a non-news story. Nothing has been verified. It is basically a forum thread rumor on another site(s). The only candidate I have been able to find that has been contacted is Buffalo Bills’ d-line coach Karl Dunbar, and even Alabama sources won’t confirm that.
This is the most accurate story I have seen on Alabama’s search for a new d-line coach to replace Bo Davis:
http://www.al.com/alabamafootball/index.ssf/2016/05/alabama_has_interviewed_multip.html
Bulldawg36 Completely agree. I was not a fan of Garner.
Greg Poole IMO Rocker stays in Athens.
Colonial Dawg I understand your enthusiasm based on improved talent and depth at WR/TE. We still have serious question marks at the QB position, OL, RB, DL, ILB kicking game. Having said that I really like this coaching staff to teach these guys up, add more intensity and be better prepared to play all 4 quarters. It’s hard to imagine us not improving on last years mark. If Eason comes on early (UNC game) and lights it up then Katy bar the door, because this team will be on fire. Gotta shore up the D though… that’s the most troublesome area for me right now.
Reddawg13 Greg Poole Can you imagine Woerner and Nauta on the field at the same time?!!!
Hope we win 15 next year
Colonial Dawg No CD I don’t think you are crazy! Every year a team no one expects rises to the top, it very well could be us!
Greg Poole He will play as a freshman and will be a force!
DawgDaddy Greg Poole more focused, more prepared and a killer instinct, until we get more size and strength we may get out maned, but not out worked!
Charlie Woerner does flips
https://www.dawgnation.com/football/team-news/charlie-woerners-track-titles-have-uga-signee-doing-back-flips
You’re right. That’s just crazy. Lol
Greg Poole Well there are folks that loved Richt and lost that love or a portion of it. And those that still love him and both groups are entitled. However, every time there is a coaching change there will be comparisons. That is both natural and okay. We should all allow each other to have their thoughts and opinions and have a good BI discussion on the matter when it is brought up. I loved Richt for a long time and the tolerated him and then lost faith. I believe we are headed in the right direction and the evidence is plain to see. Attack the day and the season and especially the opponents!
Bulldawg36 Because many people are stupid
Colonial Dawg Less than 8 will be very troubling – an indication of internal problems. 8-10 will be about what is expected in a transition, given CKS pedigree. More than 10 wins means you better up your contribution and save your money for future playoff travel.
Jus’ sayin’
Ok, here is my 2 cents worth, and maybe it’s worth less than 2 cents…..
I keep reading where the Dawgs will win anywhere from a low of 8 to a max of 12 games this year. Richt was able to coax 10 wins (yes I know one belongs to BMac) out of this team with Schotty as OC, Lambert as quarterback and not a lot of depth at WR, along with forgetting about the tight ends. And the team was a dropped pass away from 11-2. Yes, we were also very close to being 8 and 5. Well, at worst, we have the same quarterback, a better OC, tight ends who can be world beaters, better depth at WR. Yes, we have questions especially on the DL, but I just somehow cannot see us going as low as 8 wins. I still think we win 11 games this year. Now, if we do only win 8, I will accept that as a transition and look forward to 2017, but I am cautiously optimistic re 2016. Am I crazy?
On the Rocker Non-Story:
I saw the Bama site article in my feed this morning and read it carefully, hoping for a juicy traffic generator this morning. It is all about second-hand sources.
When a site without access to the program posts something like this that would be national news if true, one has to ask why the site that actually had the info (Dawgs247 – Jake Rowe) doesn’t have huge headline screaming “ROCKER WILL DUMP UGA FOR GUMPS”. Of course, all of the other beat media from UGA and Bama would be all over a story like that.
I posted it in this forum only and 247 posted a little blurb on it – at this point (and IMHO forever) it is a non-story.

Greg Poole Colonial Dawg Ah! Thanks. Now I can get back to work which is what I’m supposed to be doing anyway.
Colonial Dawg That is correct and there is no indication that Rocker has any inclination to take the job.
Bulldawg36 With a boat load of shots to go along with the stitches.
DawgByte Bulldawg36 I was under the impression (maybe wrongly so) that Rocker was not a fan of Pruitt’s. If so, can’t figure out why he would want to go work for him again.
Bulldawg36 Then you should have known that it is a source within a source story. I suspect that Rocker is a “candidate” for every open DL job in the country – if you define “candidate” as someone the team would like to hire.
Dawgs247 confirmed the “candidacy” the confirmed that a hire is “unlikely”.
DawgDaddy No doubt… I should not be alive right now given my youth.
Greg Poole Very impressive RB, one that I’d live to ink!!!
DawgByte They took that from an Alabama source without bothering to check the sources cited in the article. Dawgs247 has since said that Rocker is “unlikely” to take the job…but I’m sure they’ll get lots of clicks from Dawgbone.
You right! Also Garner should of been shipped out right along with Donnan in 2000!!!!
Gooo dawgs!! Sic em!!! Woof woof woof!!!
Bulldawg36 If I’m McGarity I’d feel out the interest level before automatically increasing his pay. An athletic program can’t be held hostage by coaches threatening to leave all the time or payroll spirals out of control. Rodney Garner use to pull that crap all the time!
Why would anybody hand feed a Raccoon? Lol. They will bite you! If they can get you on the ground they will rip you to shreds!!!
I knew about it last night. Mcgarirty better give the man a nice raise. We need Rocker too stay here till he retires
I was a wee bit surprised to wake up and see this news story. With Rocker’s kids in local Athens area schools and what he has consistently said about wanting to provide stability for them, I’d be shocked if he chose to take a lateral move to Bama. We need to keep an eye on this one!! Can’t afford to lose Rocker.

Good to hear.

DawgDaddy Greg Poole
Hey Dawg
Greg Poole He is one that I really want to come to UGA.
Greg Poole Whew!!!
Greg Poole pushing a wheel barrow of concrete is no joke, I used to be afraid that I might do something like that back in the day.
Greg Poole Thanks for sharing this, I was always told growing up that “you play like you practice” I think we should be more focused if nothing else.
Last night I told you guys that I had a chat with someone who watched 100% of every practice and scrimmage this spring. We just talked in general terms. I hope to be able to draw on this resource when fall camp starts, so I did not want to grill him at the first opportunity.
I asked if he thought that practices were substantially different from the Richt era in terms of energy, organization and attention to detail. The answer confirmed what I thought from my observations during the brief media periods. Energy levels are much higher. My source mentioned a greater increased emphasis on teaching. The source put a lot of emphasis on there being a major difference.
Organization was an area that was also said to have changed positively. One example given was that Richt often had the team changing position on the fields and often to different fields. That may seem like an insignificant thing but you must remember that NCAA allows 2 hours of practice. That is why the practice periods are carefully defined and timed. My source said the constant movement that burned practice time used to drive Pruitt crazy.
Score Check The article quotes a source who says Jake Rowe confirmed the candidacy. However, Dawgs247 is now calling a move to Bama by Rocker, “unlikely.”
