re: The moment I started to hate Mark Richt......

I have to throw one thing to thread. I have never understood why the Aubies are always so bitter about the Soldja Boy dancing. By far the most memorable part of that night and game for me was the entire UGA student section throwing the little Red Baron plastic mini-footballs that had been handed out as one came into the stadium at the Auburn players and coaches on the sidelines, especially at players using the roofless bright orange outhouse that Auburn insists on dragging to every away game.

I can both completely admit it was a classless thing to do, and yet not be in any way embarrassed I participated because well, frick Auburn. As a matter of fact, I am pretty sure you can see some of the balls still raining down at the end of that game's video.

Just like seeing the contorted rage on Meyer's face made every other bogus PF penalty in that game and future games that year absolutely worth it. There is simply nothing like seeing a guy that is willing to break just about every rule in the book being punked by a team he never thought would go there.

Viva Dark Richt!

Just since this seems to be an everlasting meme-- sure, you can say Richt has underachieved, but no other SEC coach has had to put up with as many dumbass restrictions as the UGA administration has forced on itself. From drug policies to a special admissions committee that nixed more than a few commits to financial restrictions on staff. IF you are going to criticize him then you should at least take all factors into account.
