Conservative policies are popular. Conservative candidates are not.

I’m in Hillsborough County Florida and a very conservative area. We voted for a democratic county commissioner because the old one was very pro new suburbs and development and the base was very against it.

Drink's agent is really good at his job.

Praying for you and your family Rize! You guys got this!

I just got diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer a couple weeks back and my mom was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer then stage 3 breast cancer over the summer.

My biggest piece of advice is to accept all the help you get offered. My wife is having a little bit of a hard time with that right now, but if someone wants to cook you a meal, help you with chores, run errands for, etc. take it. Now isn’t the time for pride. It’s for accepting the love of friends and family.

Thank you!

I asked about it last year and was told they couldn’t do it because I had no family history at that point. Crazy enough, my mom got colon cancer this summer so I was going to ask again in December during my primary care appointment. In a weird piece of irony, I didn’t end up needing to ask. So much for trying to be proactive!

Gator legend and certified Dawg Killer Treon Harris was 2-0 as a starter against UGA. In 2014 he went 3-6 passing for 27 yards. In 2015, he went 19-31 with 155 yards. Both Philo and Trammel have the potential to put up those kind of numbers :lol: :lol:

I agree with you on the defense. As a bunch of us have talked about during the 2 game skid, we need to start/keep bringing pressure. We blitzed 63% of the time against Texas on their dropbacks and it helped our success rate greatly.

Now is it going to work against UGA? Who knows. What's the worst that will happen, we lose? But I think we all know it gives us the best shot at winning.

Well guys, I went to the emergency room the night of 10/11 with nausea and constipation. During a CT scan, they found a cancerous mass in my colon and I was able to get a colectomy on 10/14. It's all pretty unbelievable. I am 39 and have asked about colonoscopies in the past but was told insurance would not approve it because I wasn't high risk. Evidently that was a bunch of bull shite.

Anyway, it looks like it's stage 3 and I will require about 6 months of chemo to help get rid of it. Obviously my main focuses are spending time with my family and friends during this time. But golf is my favorite hobby and missing it for an extended period of time seems terrible. It's the thing I look forward to getting my mind off the other stresses of life.

I was wondering if anyone has been in this situation before. I am guessing I will be stuck with putting and maybe chipping the next 6 months or so? Luckily I am a member of club my neighborhood is in, so I have plenty of guys I can just go out and hang out with and play a modified pitch and putt. Not my preferred way to play, but at least it would scratch the itch. Am I setting my expectations accurately?

Also, a reminder to not put off colonoscopies. Early detection is key to avoiding what I am going through and I wouldn't want anyone of y'all to have to put the sticks up like I am for a bit.

Other than Mizzou, the Campbell game was definitely the scariest for me when it comes to projecting this team going forward. That's a game we should have not let many yards up playing really vanilla and we weren't that successful. They had some really good drives against us.

I agree. These are still Billy's kids. If we win, it will probably be a close one. No clue how we are favored by so much.

The biggest things with Napier were (1) the scheme was terrible and (2) bad games snowballed into worse and worse results. We got lucky in his 8-4 year, but for most of his tenure, good momentum couldn't sustain and bad momentum compounded.

Sumrall seems like a much more motivational coach who should be able to utilize a bad game as a growth opportunity.

Totally agree. This is a week that was made for Sumrall who has taken up a more motivational CEO role. Obviously the players and coaches got a little too big for the britches. The players had never felt anything like that when it comes to a level of success and couldn't handle it. Getting kicked in the teeth can be beneficial in the long term. Sumrall seems to have the right attitude to get them to do fix it.

My biggest concern is that we were able to hide some major flaws we knew about in preseason. DB's in general, OL (especially in pass protection), and getting pressure with 4 on defense are some of the most obvious examples. Now that those are exposed, how can the coaching adjust. That is my big question.
