And yet just one centimeter down from that in the exact same post, I said this...

"If you're actually 45+ years old, congrats on your 2nd."

Amazing how the mind deteriorates with age I guess.


And I ask again....do the titles won before your birth count, or not?

Look. We both know you were taking a shot at us. Why?

And I didn't say anything to the rest...just like I said lol

First you say you were posting in general now you are saying you were posting to specific posters?

I did no such thing lol.

Yes. You did.

I said if you want to come at a Bama fans sideways, don't be surprised when you get roasted in return for being devoid of success for the better part of the last half a century. I never said anything about the other UGA fans in this thread but I can see how you're trying to backpedal and push that narrative I guess
So now you admit you were taking a shot at georgia? I mean, when you want to start talking about
"devoid of success for the better part of the last half a century." you are so clueless to know that that is taking a shot at our team, and by extension us as fans?

Okay...let me get this straight.

One of our posters took a shot at Alabama, and you got mad and took a shot back at Georgia. His shot, of course was a shot directly at you(or by your own reasoning, why would you respond to him) yet your shot was in general so we (Georgia fans)shouldn't respond to you?

So, if both were general shots why are you justified in getting aggravated and responding but Georgia fans are wrong for getting aggravated and responding?

Do they count for the school? Sure. Did I experience them? No. It would be accurate for someone to say MY first national championship was 1992. You either can't comprehend that is what I said, or you're just refusing to acknowledge it out of sheer, old man ignorance.

Good luck with that I guess.

I took at shot at one person, then you jumped in all hot and bothered because it was your 2nd national championship and it's been a back and forth ever since. Stop trying to paint it to be any other way.

quote:

I replied to a specific person, and it wasn't you. Fact.

You replied triggered by the number of championships I assumed that person was alive to see (which I explained was my intention in my next post), and I then corrected myself to acknowledge you're really old. Guess you just flat out missed that (again).

quote:

Yes. You did.


Nope. I've only taken shots at Alacowboy (not even much of a shot really), and now yourself (return-fire though). You can interpret that differently if you'd like, but it doesn't make it any less true.

I "took at shot" at Alacowboy by pointing out the bigger picture of who is the best at winning championships. This obviously triggered you to respond to me, and I've since pointed out Bama's historical dominance in comparison to UGA's because it obviously bothers you even if you want to pretend it doesn't.

One of our posters took a shot at Alabama, and you got made and took a shot back at Georgia. His shot, of course was a shot directly at you(or by your own reasoning, why would you respond to him) yet your shot was in general so why should other Georgia fans respond to you?

Yeah we're not aligned at all on what happened. I corrected his reply indicating that Nick Saban was, in fact, the best at winning championships. This much we agree on. I never said UGA fans couldn't respond to Bama fans (it's a free-ish country afterall). I said if you come at Bama fans sideways, don't cry when one fires back. You've been crying ever since.

I initially said first, not second, because the odds were pretty good it was the first national championship he had actually experienced. I explained this. Right after you made it clear that you (not Alacowboy) are a senior citizen, I said congrats on your second, and you've been blowing me up ever since about it.

Not painting it any way. You tried to troll and got called on it. Don't try to paint it any other way. To deny you were trying to take a shot is laughable.

Why? because he hurt your feelings when he said we won the Championship this year?

Because there is some disagreement about that?
Alacowboy said we won this year, and you thought Saban is the best was in doubt so you had to clarify?

And you said I got triggered?

The following was immediately after your response explaining this...

"I thought about saying your second, but the fact that the majority of UGA fans I know weren't even alive for the last one means it's the first time they've ever experienced seeing Georgia win a national championship."

Try to keep up.

"Tried to troll." Is that like a misdemeanor or something? I said it was hilarious to insinuate that Saban is anything but the best at winning national championships and explained why. YOU got triggered because apparently you're old enough to have seen two national championships for UGA. I promptly congratulated you after I learned this. I brought the same energy Alacowboy did, and oddly enough YOU'RE the one crying about it. It's honestly just weird at this point.

quote:

And therein lies the problem. You assumed.


Like I said it's pretty safe to say most UGA fans on an SEC internet forum probably weren't old enough to remember 1980 let alone witness it. We found one (you). Congrats (again).

quote:

Why? because he hurt your feelings when he said we won the Championship this year?


Because I wanted to? Why can't you seem to get over the fact that I replied? Is he your son or something?

quote:

Alacowboy said we won this year, and you thought Saban is the best was in doubt so you had to clarify?

Well he did it in response to someone saying Saban is the best at anything the NCAA throw at him, so one could easily infer that he's questioning it. But me clarifying that Saban is still the best at winning national championships doesn't negate the fact that you showed up triggered af and can't seem to let it go.

One would think since you made it such a big deal that you're old enough to have seen another Georgia national championship, maybe you'd act like you've been here before lol

Dude...think about your reasoning...just for a minute, will you?

AlaCowboy made an in general comment to nobody in general. Yes. He trolled Alabama.

So you got your panties in a twist and decided to take a shot at Georgia. So...your reasoning is.....if somebody takes a shot at Alabama you can get all up in Georgia's face, but Georgia fans can't respond? And don't act like you weren't trying to troll.

Let me simplify it for you. You can respond to posts not directed right at you, but we can't?

The reason you responded was because somebody took a shot at your school. Okay. I get it. Now, you want to know why I responded? Ummmm....maybe because somebody took a shot at my school?

#Itaintrocketscience

And for the record? There are a lot of georgia fans on here that are older than 40 years old. Crap. What are you? 12? You think 42 is old?

That wasn't my reasoning at all and it's kind of sad you still haven't grasped that. Since you're 64 maybe that dementia has started creeping in. Never said anyone couldn't respond (would be bizarre to declare this lol). The closest thing I said was don't cry about it when Bama fans clap back. Go back and read it or whatever if you are still struggling to comprehend

You can repeat this as many times as you wish...it won't make it any less inaccurate

It seems like the only reason you actually responded was because you're legitimately old enough to have seen the previous national championship, and took extreme offense to me saying "your first championship." Regardless, that was in a comment I didn't even make to you anyway (again is AlaCowboy your son or something), so deal with it

quote:

I'm sure there are a few stumbling around, but like I said the vast majority of UGA fans I've met while living in ATL aren't. Factor in that casual internet forums aren't exactly known for high percentages of senior citizens, and there was a solid chance they weren't either.

ANNNNYYYWAYS...take your blood pressure meds before you stroke out or something. And remember, it's just football, guy.

It was exactly what happened. He made a comment trolling Alabama to nobody in particular. That got you upset. (Which I can understand)

So, you responded to him by taking a shot at Georgia.

Now you can;'t believe that another Georgia fan (me) would come into the conversation to defend our school.


Tell me that's not what happened and watch everybody laugh at you. It's in the thread. All they have to do is read it.

I’m excited that Burton chose Alabama. I don’t think Alabama lacks for talent at WR but Burton is a known commodity that has been productive when targeted on another great team. Sort of the same deal as Jameson Williams in that regard even if Burton is not the same type of player.

Again, I figured that Alabama would have a couple guys step up at this position anyway but the addition of Burton gives me a lot of confidence WR in 2022 won’t be like the right side of the offensive line was in 2021. Couldn’t say if it will be a position of strength but it ought to be productive enough to make for a great offense again.

That's a lie LOL. Our WR recruiting the last two previous cycles (not including the incoming WRs) aside from the transfer portal has been filled with misevaluations and projects. None of the guys we've recruited looks to be elite. We missed out on Boutte and X. Worthy. Those two are guys we desperately wanted. We've been in the portal to address our WR misevaluations and it's why we took so many WRs this incoming class. Look for 1-3 more WRs to transfer out of Bama after the Spring.

Burton is a really good receiver, and I think his deep threat ability might surprise you next season, he has got wheels..

So you're entire premise is that I was trolling so I wouldn't get a response? You realize the point of trolling is to illicit a response, right? That's how that works old-timer. I knew this when I responded to AlaCowboy, which is why I used very specific wording in my reply.

quote:

It's in the thread. All they have to do is read it.


Well at least you're right about this lol

What happened was I responded to AlaCowboy attempting to bait him under the notion that he was under 45 (I explained this in my first post to you if you care to go back and read it carefully). If he turned out older, I'd make a simple correction (like I did once you revealed your age) and take another angle. Unfortunately he did not bite whatsoever, and he hasn't even commented once in this thread since despite this lengthy exchange that followed (seems like alter behavior to me, but I digress)

Alas my attempt wasn't entirely ineffective because here you are, 3 pages later, still on my hook despite me trying to rip the damn thing out of your mouth and throw your old arse back in the water!

Once again, congrats on experiencing YOUR SECOND national championship, and thank you very much for sending over Burton. I'm really excited about his potential with a heisman QB returning!

*attempts to unhook this crusty old fish for the last time

I get what you are saying, based on the Championship game....but....all the receivers (or at least most) were highly rated receivers that almost every other school wanted, too. They did not perform in that game, but my guess is the younger players did not get as much playing time/experience as they used to due to blowout games you guys are used to having.

Burton is a great addition. Honestly he tended to get dinged up bit every year (it seemed) but he is very talented and will help out. If he stays healthy I think he will be your new Metchie.

Look. You said once that I responded to you when you never said anything to me. But what you left out was AlaCowboy wasn't talking to you when he posted.

So your reasoning is that if a Georgia poster makes a post to anybody about Alabama, then you can come on and respond to them and take shots at Georgia....but Georgia fans can't do the same.

Let me runn down the order of events.

AlaCowboy posted to secuniversity with a troll

then you posted to AlaCowboy with a troll

Then I posted to you challenging your troll

Then you scream I can't do that because you weren't posting to me, you were posting to AlaCowboy.


You can't make this up. Here is a Link where it started....top of the page.
