Yes, you destroyed me. Zack Mettenberger kicked off the team shows Richt is the SEC's leading advocate of favoritism.
What does Ealy getting kicked off the team show you? We have Caleb King and two unproven running backs in Ken Malcomb and Isaiah Crowell. For all we know they could turn into the next Jasper Sanks - and we already know what a disappointment King has been.
Richt can be called many things, but to say he shows favoritism more than other coaches in the SEC or the NCAA is laughable.
I am no huge fan of Mark Richt. Do I want him to succeed? Of course, I think he's a great man, but he hasn't shown much in quite a while.
Not sure why you have such a hard-on for UGA anyway. Therapy might help.

If you want examples, here are a few:
Caleb KIng this past year, Justin Houston for first two games of 2009, Ealey for first game this year, Ben Jones for game after he was flagged for bad PF against MSU, Bruce Figgins for first 6 games last year, Tavarres King this year... and considering the numerous transgressions occurring in Athens, the list can go on.
Basically, Cigar Tiger, here's the thing. If you knew anything about UGA, then you should start with the fact that they are one of the few schools with a pretty strict punishment policy in place, and so even if Richt wanted to play favorites, most of the time the punishment is out of his hands.
And while, you can hem and haw all you want about the first game being a pansy, even when it isn't, UGA has still had important guys suspended. I seem to recall something like 8 suspended for a season opener at Clemson back in 2003.
