Here they are:
I have a bookcase down in my basement/mancave with a ton of old literature, some from myself and some inherited from my grandpa. I have many, many game programs and media guides going back to the mid-60s. If there is any interest or if I get drunk enough I can share those as well.

Nice. Why did you quit collecting though?
If we don’t continue our rituals and traditions, who will? While everyone complains it’s all going to shite.
Emergency alert: 1) Read Last of the Mohicans 2) Buy Lindy’s/ Athlons / etc every year when they come out in June
Jfc, these are the basics

I’ve got a bunch of these dating back to the 80s including the old Sports Illustrated and ESPN the Magazine college Football preview editions (remember those?)
Media guides I have back to the 70s and game programs I go back to the 70s with a few from the 50s and 60s mixed in. One of the fun pieces of lit I have a ton of are the old The Georgia Bulldog weekly magazines from the early 2000s (which started out as weekly folded up newsletters in the 80s and 70s). It’s a fun little reminder about how info would get sent out pre-email/internet message boards.
Phil Steele was always the most expensive so while I have a bunch of them it’s not a complete chronology (I’m also missing a few years that likely got tossed at some point when cleaning out my bedroom or dorm)

the internet, pretty much. I was in middle school at the end of the 90s so at that point I genuinely had no idea how good we were "supposed" to be nationally, or what our opponents looked like, until picking up a preseason mag at the store in the summer. 2000 was the first time I registered for a sports message board so by a few years later I definitely knew more about the team than what an athlon or lindy's could tell me.
I bought the 2008 ones just becuase it was the first time in a while we were getting legitimate preseason national title contender vibes so it was cool seeing those covers.

Georgia Team Page:
Most Valuable Player
Jalen Carter is pretty comfortably the most valuable player on this team. His absence would be the hardest to replace.
On offense, even though Gilbert and Delp showed out in spring ball, neither of them has shown us a thing in game action, so I'll still go with Bowers here with a hat tip to Sedrick Van Pran. Great center play is one of those things that you don't notice when you have it but when you don't have it, your entire offense goes off the rails.

Bummer. This is one of those years where New Year’s Day falls on a Sunday. So college football will cuck out to the NFL and play all the holy day bowls on a f’n Monday.
It’s also a Peach bowl cfp year though. So we might could get a home field advantage playoff game if we take care of business

5-year betting trend (against the spread)
2017 11-3
2018 8-5
2019 8-5
2020 4-6
2021 10-4
My gosh, 2020 was brutal on so many fronts. How is it even possible for one year to be so evil. Makes you kind of believe in the simulation theory

-Top TEs: Bowers runner up to Notre Dame guy. (Is this legit? I’m not familiar with ND guy)
Like VA said, nd guy is good but it's criminal the lack of love bowers is getting. Last year for him to not even be a mackey finalist and seeing his numbers aboslutely DWARF the winners...even though it was gross I could at least kind of get it since bowers was a TFr and the guy that won had a killer season last year so maybe they wanted to throw him a bone and rward longevity. I don't agree with it, but would at least understand it.
That doesn't apply here. Brock was the best TE in america last year so to not have him 1st team preseason is just wrong. Head scratching really. I don't know what else they woudl want to see out of him. For reference here were both's stats last year
Mayer: 12 games, 71 for 840. Average 11.8. 7 TDs. Long of 52. No rushing stats
Bowers: 15 games, 56 for 882. AVerage 15.8. 13 TDs. Long of 89. 4 Rushes for 56 yards and 1 TD
And it's not like Mayer is a senior, he's only played 1 more year than Brock and is heading into his junior year. The only thing I can figure is simply that it's Notre Dame.

Great Spirit, and the maker of all life, WGdawg goes to you swift and straight as an arrow shot into the sun. Welcome him, and let him take his place at the council fire of my people. Even though he abandoned their rituals and traditions in favor of emoticons and up/down arrows. Tell them I’m still keeping watch and bid them patience and ask death for speed, for they are all there but one. I, JeffersonDawg, last of the Mohicans.

2008 was the loss of my football innocence. I had grown up thinking Georgia was the cock of the walk, and everyone else was sniffing our jock. (I don't have sports memories from before '02)
Went into 7th grade thinking we had the national title on ice and that we'd be right back where we belonged. My mouth wrote way too many checks that the Dawgs couldn't cash that year.
The Alabama Blackout game had me staring into the dark sky over my parent's driveway like a divorced man who just got fired and is about to lose the house and car.

2008 seasoned me in ways both good and bad. I found maturity as a sports fan but I also tested some personal relationships as I aged ungracefully out of my immaturity.
I’m better for having gone through it but would recommend the experience to no one.
Can’t imagine how ruthlessly obnoxious the middle/high school fans of today are growing up to be with the unfathomable Braves/Dawgs combo title. I’d be harassing out of state kids into begging their parents to relocate to South Dakota. Instead I got that treatment from Florida fans, each of whom I hope are now on their 3rd divorce and had the good sense not to contaminate the rest of the world with their rotten seed

From 7th grade to 12th grade I knew that Georgia had to win each weekend, or else the whole week ahead was going to be hell for me. Somehow no one in my class was a Georgia fan, so it was always snarky comments and trolling after a loss.
Almost transferred schools after a Michigan State and a Nebraska fan chirped me after the 2012 South Carolina debacle.
I pray the youth are enjoying this run right now. Some say the prophets foretold this run many moons ago, on this very board.
A wise sage
