Some of y’all done lost y’all minds. Yup, I’m looking squarely at the fans in Athens, GA who vandalized the home of a collegiate athlete, because the Dawgs lost a football game. I’m also looking at the Braves fans in Atlanta who threw bottles on the field for over 20 minutes and the fans in Kansas City who cheered an injured Matt Cassel. Pump the brakes, people! Thankfully, though, there were lots of great sporting moments this weekend that remind us why we love these games.
***************************************
UGA fans have jumped the shark.
Came to a house that was egged and rolled. Seems that people turn on you when you're not perfect. Thought we were in this together.

More fans behaving badly, maybe it’s a Georgia thing.

Cold world.
That was a selfish play by the LT Gaither in my opinion. U know your hurt and can't move……get out the game!!

The honeymoon is over.
Interesting how when replacement refs make a bad call they're crucified by the media, but when the regular refs do it, nothing is said. Lol

But y’all wanted the real refs back.
The refs are destroying this game!

If it ain't broke…
That thing that Jeter does where he doesn't swing and sticks his butt out like the ball is close and it's not. #cantstandit

NASCAR drivers are always selling their sponsors.

Win as a team, lose as a team.
Man enough to admit I messed The game up… Put it on my shoulders I can handle it.

They blew that out of the water.
Remember when ESPN said "Texas is the best defense WVU will have played since LSU last year" …. 45 points later.

The bandwagon is full.
I'm thinking the Reds are a pretty good baseball team.

There are other ways to lose. I’m sure your team can find them.
Losing the way we do I just don't get it. Makes me sick. Back at work tomorrow getting ready for the Steelers. Still a long season ahead!!!

It’s better than nothing at all.
Before walk, Nick Swisher was 1 for 31 w/runners in scoring position in postseason. Now? Oh yeah, still 1 for 31. #walksdontcount

Bronson balled out.
Getting 21 outs from Bronson Arroyo was exactly what Dusty Baker needed after needing his pen to get 26 last night.
