Ugh Joe Theisman announcing….
Bulldawg Bob2 RumRunnerDoogie rugbydawg79 yup as did japan. GB is known a lot more for its 15s rugby instead of 7s
RumRunnerDoogie Bulldawg Bob2 rugbydawg79 So in other words, GBR had a heck of an Olympic run.
Bulldawg Bob2 RumRunnerDoogie rugbydawg79 put it nicely most people didnt expect great britain to make it out of pool play let alone the finals
RumRunnerDoogie Bulldawg Bob2 rugbydawg79 Ah ………. That helps it explain it.
Bulldawg Bob2 rugbydawg79 RumRunnerDoogie finals are 20 min matches. and Fiji is the best in the world. To put it into perspective Great Britain isnt probably a top 6 team in the world. USA is ranked 5th in the world but kinda fell flat in Rio.
rugbydawg79 RumRunnerDoogie Did I just read this Olympic Rugby score right?
Fiji over Great Britain 43-7 in the gold medal match?

rugbydawg79 No doubt. Harris is a mean blocker and Blazevich can block as well as catch. I just hope to see the TEs used more as receivers than they were last year.
RobDawg Me Too !! always trying to get bigger –now out of control
Bulldawg Bob2 perhaps the tight ends might play a role
RumRunnerDoogie Bulldawg Bob2 RRD I wonder if Coach Belichek was watching any of those 6 7 270lb Fijians that can flat out run –as Fiji destroyed Great Britain to win the Gold !
Bulldawg Bob2 Move to Virginia and it would be…..Can’t make any promises on the heat though…going to be at least 95 through Tuesday
Bulldawg Bob2 that just looks weird

RobDawg The battle of the remotes will wage across the homes and couches of the US tonight as couple vie for control of the clicker.
Greg Poole 10-4. Thanks.
I think so, buthave not oaid much attention to the group
Glad you mentioned it or I would have only watched olympics tonight. Now I can make Mrs RobDawg mad as I am switching back and forth
Greg Poole Aye.
Hey, is Nick Moore still at FB?

RobDawg Thank man.
One position I am curious about is full back. Who are the two guys that are going to be that head knock’n, mean son-of-gun, I’ll knock your cleats off blockers for our tailbacks this season?
RobDawg You and me both RobDawg. I weighed maybe 135 soaking wet with pads on in high school. Worked out really hard and took full advantage of the meal plan at UGA and gained 20 lbs my freshman year.
Now, I am the size of a hefty full back 🙂
DawgByte It looked hot. Greg Poole said it just sapped everything you had out of you. Here is a Tweet from Radi last Saturday that made almost laugh myself out of my chair:

Funny thing is I remember drinking these awful supplement chalky weight gain mixes my dad used to make me drink with milk in late 70s when I was about 9-10 playing youth football to gain weight. Now I got no problem in that department.
Wow the heat index was 128 degrees in Sanford stadium for last Saturday’s open practice. There’s some good nuggets in this video report from Chip & Seth.

It is on WUPA or the “UP” in Atlanta market. Maybe you can get that
Things that make you go hmmmmmmmmmmm. Hope we can keep him in the fold!

Wish the Redskins vs. Falcons preseason game was on TV tonight.
Wouldn’t mind watching some former Bulldawgs compete.
Arty Lynch and Chris Mayes are both on the Falcons’ roster, and Kedric Golston and Keith Marshall are on the Redskins’.
Maybe it is live streamed online somewhere …… hmmmmmm
Bulldawg Bob2 freddawg Thanks Bob. Looks like all the charges were dismissed with good behavior, and a couple months early to boot. Looks like the wheels of justice grind faster in some cases than others.
RobDawg Speaking of Olympic Judo

RobDawg LOL
Ok maybe tights isn’t the right term. What is it that Borat was wearing in his movie?
Bulldawg Bob2 freddawg I have a GREAT pic for just this sort of thing with tenn. Unfortunately borderline pic for BI. Can send it directly to anyone that wants to see it – Guaranteed to get a WTF and a Laugh out of you – just can Not post it on here. Let me know.
freddawg Here’s the story:
Tennessee DT Alexis Johnson has been cleared of wrongdoing by a student judicial panel following an allegation of assault, but his future with the football team is still uncertain.
https://www.seccountry.com/tennessee/tennessee-dt-alexis-johnson-cleared-by-student-panel-remains-suspended
And more news out of LSU
“ ‘Yeah, Popeyes was putting a lot of weight on me,’ Dural http://www.theadvertiser.com/story/sports/2016/08/10/travin-dural-grew-off-season-thanks-popeyes/88509572/. ”
“ ‘I went home one day, and my mom was like, ‘Man, you look stuffed. So, that’s when I knew it was time for change. I was almost 230 pounds in the spring, and I played at 203 last year. ‘ ”
http://www.foxsports.com/college-football/story/an-lsu-football-star-gained-27-pounds-eating-too-much-popeyes-fried-chicken-081116
Tennessee reinstates their new DT Alexis Johnson, who was convicted of, I believe, felony assault and some kind of imprisonment charge last spring. His charges were lowered to misdemeanor assault and imprisonment was dismissed as long as he kept his nose clean for 6 months, which coincidentally was about the amount of time until fall practice began. Then his lawyer apparently pushed for an early ruling by a student judiciary committee to get him approved for reinstatment earlier than the October date that had been mentioned earlier.
Those are just my rough take on a complicated set of dealings which resulted in newfound DT depth for UT. Could be inaccurate on the exact details of what transpired, but it all fits within a familiar pattern, IYAM.
“LSU sophomore wide receiver http://topics.nola.com/tag/tyron%20johnson/ tweeted Thursday he is transferring.
Johnson, who prepped at Warren Easton High School, played in nine games and caught nine passes for 150 yards and two touchdowns last season.
LSU sports information director Michael Bonnette confirmed Johnson’s decision and said the school has given him a release.”

RobDawg A lot of throws and grappling to take down the ground in Judo, especially in competition level Judo at that level.
If people are wondering what RobDawg , Greg Poole and I are talking about, go to the 3:50 mark here in this Kirby Smart presser from last week’s Tuesday practice:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0F_FCLbWX2k
https://twitter.com/finebaum/status/763833537405607936
Watching Olympic judo which looks to me to be Greco Roman wrestling just not in the tights. I was thinking I would see some kicks or something
Had not heard this
That was a comment Kirby made a week or so ago as an analogy of past habits and work ethic I think.
True freshman cornerback C.J. McWilliams has a torn ACL and will miss the season according to his high school coach, Tim Neal. McWilliams was not at Thursday’s practice.
He is one of three cornerbacks the Gators signed in their 2016 class and was expected to see the field in some capacity as a freshman.
With him out, Florida now has seven players in the secondary who can play cornerback this season.
