A good edict, a nice bit of advice. I've had neighbors I would have loved to love.
Anyway, not the point. I'm engaging in that rarity, Vman watching basketball. I hate the frigging sport. Consider it beneath contempt. But I do get a bit caught up in March Madness, and I do like the heart collegians take into any sports match. I'm a sucker for Kids with Heart. So, wiping my nose on my sleeve, I find myself watching Florida taking the paddle to George Mason in the semi-finals. And I'm not rooting for Mason, the underdog, although I like the school. I'm rooting for the Gators. SEC. Keep it home. Then I'll root for LSU in game 2.
Hey! Where's the fucking ACC? I thought they ruled college hoops. I thought the SEC was a foo-ball conference. Perhaps my wires were crossed.
Rooting for Florida. Shit. The Senator would have understood. He used to root for Bama when they played Yankees, and Catholics, for the national championship in football. He was a bit parochial in that respect.
Love thy neighbor. Even if they are filthy, stinking Gators. They're your Gators, dammit.
As long as you got so much love going on, how about an apology to Jill Carroll?

Posted by: GUYK at April 2, 2006 1:47 PMFuck the Gators, SEC or not. I'll drink snot through a straw before I EVER root for them. It's a Bulldog thang.
Besides--- I don't like ANY team that has some guy named "Taurean" playing for them. And Joe-Kim Noah is an ugly bastard, too.
