You darn right UGA girls can ride.
Something you nerds will NEVER know anything about.

moboman, excellent example of Hewitt’s “offense.” And if he hadn’t lobbed an alley-oop, he would have probably pulled up at the 3-point line and heaved up a brick. Whatever happened to a Tech player actually driving the lane for a layup. Hell, can Tech players under Hewitt even hit layups? They haven’t been able to for at least the past 3 years.

Pretty sure Supersize was actually dressed in Kentucky Derby attire at Monster Jam last night.

Watkinsville at 4:58 — “You darn right UGA girls can ride”. Hmm, sounds like you’re saying that UGA girls are a bunch of ho’s. And what is Blake’s on the Park?

yes. Because any college co-ed who participates in Sex is a “ho”.
You wouldn’t know the first thing about that at Tech though.

And you know what Blake’s on the Park is. Don’t act dumb. I am sure you have a credit account set up there.

Watkinsville, if all you think that’s important in life is sex, or if that’s all you think that is important to college coeds, then this is truly a f**d up society. And, since I am without a doubt a good many years older (not to mention wiser) than you, I would say, based on your comment, that the future doesn’t look very good.

Watkinsville, I don’t live in Atlanta so I have no idea what Blake’s on the park is. From the tone you are taking, it must be some kind of sleazy place. Interesting that you seem to know all about it; I guess you go there yourself, huh?

Could you state where I said “sex is the only important thing…..”, or anything of that nature…….
Thanks. Look forward to the evidence you submit……

Watkinsville, I (perhaps incorrectly) interpreted your comment about all college girls to mean that such behavior was acceptable to you. If I was wrong, then I apologize, but your choice of wording left that remark open to that interpretation.

@Supersize, exactly. These guys are out there showcasing rather than being taught how to win basketball games. They over-extend on the defense trying to get steals, but for every steal they get they also give up 5 easy buckets because the whole defense has been taken out of postion. There is no Tech offense now, its all about Shumpert “leading” the offense. We have players, but no system designed to get the most out of them, based on each ones skills. If coach K were running this team, I guarantee you Moe Miller would be running the point, and every one of these players would be playing with a different attitude about what their defined responsibilities are on the court.

Ugh. It’s too bad that the comments for all the AJC sports stories just end up being the biggest morons on both sides rehashing the same, old insults. It’d be great if we could just talk sports.

Alabama, you’re right, “nuff said.” JUST DO IT. Don’t even wait till the season ends; it’s over already anyway.

Watkinsville, to be honest, I don’t know what you’re carrying on about. I’ve only been exchanging barbs with you because nobody else was saying anything. It’s now time for dinner, and I don’t need you anymore for my entertainment. Maybe you should go back to the mutt blogs. Since you guys say there are lots of Tech posters there, then go there and argue for awhile. It’s obvious you have nothing better to do.

I watched the entire game and it was amazing how many points Va. Tech scored in the paint and how few Ga. Tech made in the paint. I know Oliver was out but this was disgraceful. To the Georgia blogger who thought Tech was putting too much blame on coaching, think back on what you Georgia fans were saying about firing coaches after some of your losses this season.

If super size was as brilliant as his ego tells him he is, we might actually learn something on here.

Will someone that has free time, UGA fans possibly, go pool the Schedule from the final four run Tech made. I seem to remember them going 9-7 in conference losing 7 of 8 ACC road games. Is that accurate? If so, proves that was a fluke and Jarret Jack was the “reason for the season”

To summarize…fanbase #1 makes insulting comment regarding fanbase #2. Anonymity on the Internet at its best.
Now, I do have to admit that I had work to do, so I didn’t end up watching the game. Seeing the ESPN score tracker was rather depressing though, and there does need to be something that changes. I think Paul said it best when he said that the team is “in a tailspin”. I honestly want to spend a men’s game near the bench to see what’s going on.
