A long, long time ago
I can still remember how his running used to make me smile
And I knew if we had a chance
That Gurley could make those people dance
And maybe they'd be happy for a while
But October made me shiver
With every word I read on twitter
Bad news on the internet
I couldn't stop kicking my dear pet
I can't remember if I cried
When I read about his rumored bribe
But something touched me deep inside
The day Georgia's hopes died

Bye Bye, Todd Gurley guy,
Rode your talent oh so gallant, now we're high and dry
And the media says he was signing merch for fives
Singin' to make all those Georgia fans cry,
You've made all those Georgia fans cry

Would you rewrite the book of rules
That kicked Georgia fans right in the jewels
If the NCAA tells you so?
Do you believe Chubb can rock and roll
Can Douglas save our mortal soul
And can you teach me Mason to pass real slow?
Well, I know that we’re in love with him
'Cause I saw Verne dancin' in the gym
You both kicked off your shoes
Man, thinking about it gives me the blues
I am a lonely Bulldog broncin' buck
With a Red and Black pom pom and a pickup truck
But I knew I was out of luck
The day the Georgia’s hopes died

Bye Bye, Todd Gurley guy,
Rode your talent oh so gallant, now we're high and dry
And the media says he was signing merch for fives
Singin' to make all those Georgia fans cry,
You've made all those Georgia fans cry

Now for thirty years we've been on our own
And moss grows fat on Uga's bone
But that's not how it used to be
When the Herschel ran over ol’ Bill Bates
And led the Dawgs to the pearly gates
And a cheer that came from you and me
Oh, and while AJ Green was looking down
The NCAA stole his eligibility crown
The courtroom was adjourned
Weeks for the verdict to be returned
And while Cam stole a student's laptop
JFF avoided the NCAA to stay at the top
And Jameis dodged the cops
The day the Georgia’s hopes died

Bye Bye, Todd Gurley guy,
Rode your talent oh so gallant, now we're high and dry
And the media says he was signing merch for fives
Singin' to make all those Georgia fans cry,
You've made all those Georgia fans cry

Helter skelter in a media swelter
The fans fled for the fallout shelter
Ranked 13th and falling fast
We landed foul on our arse
Mason tried for a forward pass
With the Michel ‘n’ Marshall on the sidelines in a cast
Now the preseason air was sweet perfume
While the redcoats played a marching tune
We all got up to dance
Oh, but we never got the chance
'Cause Gurley tried to take the field
The NCAA refused to yield
Do you recall what was revealed
The day the Georgia’s hopes died?

Bye Bye, Todd Gurley guy,
Rode your talent oh so gallant, now we're high and dry
And the media says he was signing merch for fives
Singin' to make all those Georgia fans cry,
You've made all those Georgia fans cry

Oh, and the hopes were all in one place
A decision was made in haste
With no time left to start again
So come on, Chubb be nimble, Douglas be quick
Mark Richt sat on a candlestick
'Cause sanctions is the devil's only friend
Oh, and as I think of Gurley on the Heisman stage
My hands are clenched in fists of rage
No angel born in Hell
Could break Georgia’s Satanic spell
And as the flames climbed high into the night
At this point it seems only right
I saw Mizzou laughing with delight
The day Georgia’s hopes died

Bye Bye, Todd Gurley guy,
Rode your talent oh so gallant, now we're high and dry
And the media says he was signing merch for fives
Singin' to make all those Georgia fans cry,
You've made all those Georgia fans cry
I me with Richt who avoids the blues
And I asked him for some happy news
But he just smiled and turned away
I went down to the sacred Arch
Where I'd walked for years before
But the students now there said that Gurley wouldn't play
And in the streets, the children screamed
The fans cried and our rivals dreamed
But not a word was spoken
The chapel bell was completely broken
And the three men I admire most
The Herschel, Pollack and Sinkwich’s Ghost
They caught the last train for the coast
The day Georgia’s hopes died

Bye Bye, Todd Gurley guy,
Rode your talent oh so gallant, now we're high and dry
And the media says he was signing merch for fives
Singin' to make all those Georgia fans cry,
You've made all those Georgia fans cry

now that's a quality verse

Out here in fricking California checking out DR for the pre game comments.

Oh well, we have to cheer extra hard for the rest of the guys who are playing on Saturday.

Heard it on the radio driving home. Pulled over into a Chick-Fil-A parking lot and started yelling mother frick so loud the person in the car next to me looked over.

Then went into Chick-Fil-A, where apperantly some other person just got the news. Dude was wearing a cameo UGA hat and saying "We're so Goddamn fricked"

Sitting in front of my HTPC watching Sportscenter when the news crawled across the screen.

coaching at peewee football practice...one of the dads who is also a Dawg fan told me...then I asked one of my other coaches if he had heard...(he is a UF fan)...he just started giggling.....



this shite sucks...
