		<description>A better question to ask would be why do universities pay glorified P.E. teachers nine times what they pay their professors?  The functions of a university are to teach and engage in research, not to make money through a side sports business.  Semi-literate &quot;student-athletes&quot; are given &quot;scholarships&quot; despite the fact that most of their applications would be laughed out of the admissions office if they applied as regular students.  College football is a corruption of education and a sin against academic life.  

But the yahoos and rednecks we see here live and die for it.  And for that reason it will continue...and grow.</description>

		<description>Hey, Mark, what gives? You get a dime for every post on your blogs? How about some cutting edge stuff for once, something the fans can enjoy...oh, right...never mind then. Keep on writing stuff that stirs the pot but adds nothing resembling journalism to the mix.

HEY DAWG FANS. Will you please, for the love of Dooley, STOP responding to idiot tech posters? Every time you do they swarm around our news, our blogs, and ruin even these entertainment-as-journalism pieces Mark Bradley excels at. Talk about the dawgs, the piece...whatever, but please don&#039;t reference their stupidity. You love the Dawgs. That should be enough for anyone.</description>

		<description>Mark, The more realistic question would be winning the SEC Championship, as to climb over Florida, Bama and LSU seems quite a challenge presently, and will remain so until changes are made to the coaching staff.</description>

		<description>Richt is a great coach and a great role model.  However, he may be too nice to win a BCS Championship.  I believe if Van Gorder had sayed at Georgia, we would have won a national championship.  Martinez is a good coach but not a great one.  I am afraid Richt is just too nice to do what he has to do and demote his old friend Martinez and get a truly great defensive coordinator.</description>

		<description>Every year is the year to win a NC at Georgia, just ask the fans. If they don&#039;t there is always a reason or excuse. Born and raised a dog fan. Maybe the ball could have rolled one way or the other a year or two. The reality is that great coaches find ways to win regardless and/or they have talented enough coaches around them that pick-up the slack win other area&#039;s of the team are down. Georgia will always be that team that plays like a roller coaster of inconsistency. Georgia reminds me of the falcons with Vick, everyone makes up excuses why they aren&#039;t winning, but they don&#039;t want to point the finger at Vick. The same is true for the Mark Richt program, everyone wan&#039;t to make-up excuses on why UGA can&#039;t win the big one, but nobody holds Richt responsible. Maybe UGA has what it deserves, second best to Florida. 

Think about this, where would Sabin, Meyers, Miles or even Paul Johnson have the UGA program at if they started when Richt did? I bet everyone one of them would have the same level of success, plus a few more conference titles, more BCS apperances and atleast 1 NC. Just a thought. 

For now I am going downstairs to watch ESPN classics of UGA winning the NC.</description>

		<description>I am always amazed at the comments i read here especially from the tech fans, gator fans and yes the dawg fans about how great or not so great there football teams or coaches are. Coach Richt is an extremely good coach and person, and i would love to have my son play for him, is he perfect, no has he made mistakes and will he continue to make mistakes, yes, but our program is strong, and no we have&#039;nt won BCS, yet, but alot of luck and having the right mix of players and talent along with coaches goes into the formula, for tech fans, it is great that you feel your program is back and that you have a good coach that will take you to the promise land, and perhaps he will, but one win over your state school rival does not mean a dynasty, but we will wait and see, for gator fans, yes you are on top now as we read and hear all the time, enjoy it while you can because things do change, coaches, players, injuries, luck and etc, you have had some special players the last few years and may have some more, but so do a lot of teams, and again things do run in cycles, while I don&#039;t have a lot of respect for Coach Meyer, just based on things he says and does and actions on the field tell me alot about him, but hey, his teams keep winning so there is something to be said for that, for dawg fans, we have a great coach, and yes he may need to make some tough coaching decisions at the end of this year, he already has made some, I truly believe we will win a BCS, I don&#039;t know when, but all the things mentioned above will play a part in it.  We will continue to get very good talent, some will turn out like we expect, others will not, and there always be surprises, this is true for all teams, I&#039;m not sure what Mark Bradley is trying to stir up here, but it makes good reading along with some interesting opinions, Well I&#039;ll close for now so the great, great schools with the greatest coaches on earth can continue to tell us how the dawgs will never win the BCS and how many each of their schools will win over the next few years..go dawgs</description>
