re: Did Tennessee win a championship last night?

We already know this board is all rednecks.

The game was as much a clownshow as the leader of tennessee football.

Butch Jones is a dead man walking. He's a fraud waiting in the shadows.

All know he will be exposed by the light of truth very soon.

Any vol fan who doesn't deep down know this project will fail and need to be rebuilt once again is lying.

This entire thread is an embarrassment to the conference. 8 pages of Vols getting trolled by some rando Ohio State fan.

Yes

Next question

jesus frickin christ there sure are a lot of ruffled vaginas up in here just because UT and VT played in the largest college football game - ever. Big deal. A shite ton of fans had a great time. Guiness record etc. The kids were just there to play, the rest was just promotion. AFAIC, UT underwhelmed on offense, adjusted nice on defense and won the game. 2-0 bitches.

I guess he's livin' in the past. No wonder Vols feel an affinity for him.

Robert A. Heinlein (1907-1988) was from Missouri.

You never heard of Robert Heinlein?

"Heinlein was named the first Science Fiction Writers Grand Master in 1974.[8] He won Hugo Awards for four of his novels; in addition, fifty years after publication, three of his works were awarded "Retro Hugos"—awards given retrospectively for works that were published before the Hugo Awards came into existence.[9] In his fiction, Heinlein coined terms that have become part of the English language, including "grok", "waldo", and "speculative fiction", as well as popularizing existing terms like "TANSTAAFL", "pay it forward", and "space marine". He also anticipated mechanical Computer Aided Design with "Drafting Dan" and described a modern version of a waterbed in his novel The Door into Summer,[10] though he never patented or built one. In the first chapter of the novel Space Cadet he anticipated the cell-phone, 35 years before Motorola invented the technology.[11] Several of Heinlein's works have been adapted for film and television.


Heinlein was born on July 7, 1907 to Rex Ivar Heinlein (an accountant) and Bam Lyle Heinlein, in Butler, Missouri. He was a 6th-generation German-American: a family tradition had it that Heinleins fought in every American war starting with the War of Independence.[12]

His childhood was spent in Kansas City, Missouri.[13] The outlook and values of this time and place (in his own words, "The Bible Belt") had a definite influence on his fiction, especially his later works, as he drew heavily upon his childhood in establishing the setting and cultural atmosphere in works like Time Enough for Love and To Sail Beyond the Sunset. The Science Fiction and Fantasy Hall of Fame inducted Heinlein in 1998, its third class of two deceased and two living writers and editors.[111]

In 2001 the United States Naval Academy created the Robert A. Heinlein Chair In Aerospace Engineering.[112]

There was an active campaign to persuade the Secretary of the Navy to name the new Zumwalt-class destroyer DDG-1001 the USS Robert A. Heinlein;[113] however, DDG-1001 will be named USS Monsoor, after Michael Monsoor, a Navy SEAL who was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor for his service in Iraq.

In December 2013 Heinlein was announced as an inductee to the Hall of Famous Missourians. His bronze bust, created by Kansas City sculptor, E. Spencer Schubert, will be one of forty-four on permanent display in the Missouri State Capitol in Jefferson City.[114]

The Libertarian Futurist Society has honored six of Heinlein's novels with their Hall of Fame award.[115] The first two during his lifetime for The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress and Stranger in a Strange Land. Four have been awarded posthumously for Red Planet, Methuselah's Children, Time Enough for Love and Requiem." - wiki

Heinlein graduated from the Naval Academy and his brother graduated from West Point.

Pretty much. They beat a team that was almost ranked.

Go snort some Zoloft.
