Tech fans giggle while UGA fans say, ‘Shut up and deal’
PJ cracks wise; Richt is unamused. (AJC photo by Pouya Dianat)
In times of plenty and in times of want, there’s always Georgia versus Georgia Tech. It’s a game that defines (and sometimes reconfigures) the sport in our state, and by way of public service we offer yet another installment — that’s my way of saying I’ve lost count — of our Field Guide to the opposing sets of fans.
• Tech fans describe the moves Roddy Jones put on Georgia defenders along the sideline as “the old okey-doke.” Georgia fans describe Tech’s stadium as “The joke by Coke.”
• Georgia fans still can’t get over Tech putting the score of last year’s Georgia game on their Coastal Division co-championship rings. Tech fans still can’t get over Georgia players selling SEC championship rings on eBay.
• Tech fans laugh really hard whenever Paul Johnson says anything mildly amusing. Georgia fans stopped laughing at Paul Johnson midway through the third quarter on Nov. 29, 2008.
• Georgia fans don’t take the ACC seriously. Tech fans think SEC superiority is all a figment of Tim Brando’s imagination.
• Two words guaranteed to make Tech fans mad: Chop block. Two words guaranteed to make Georgia fans mad: Excessive celebration.
• Georgia fans believe SEC refs have it in for the Bulldogs. Tech fans believe SEC refs do a fine job — especially that nice Al Ford.
• Tech fans think it’s funny the head of SEC officiating is a Tech grad. Georgia fans think it’s all part of a grand conspiracy.
• Georgia fans are incensed by PETA’s demand that the late Uga VII be replaced by a robot. Tech fans will be incensed if they don’t get the contract to build the robot.
• Tech fans are excited to see the Jackets so high in the BCS rankings. Georgia fans are excited to see the Bulldogs so high in the recruiting rankings.
• Georgia fans can’t believe Tech keeps extending Paul Johnson’s contract. Tech fans would be willing to chip in and help Georgia extend Willie Martinez’s contract.
• Tech fans are eagerly awaiting a rematch with Clemson in Tampa. Georgia fans are eagerly awaiting a rematch with Kentucky in Stegeman Coliseum. (Er, maybe not. Kentucky’s better in hoops, too.)
• Georgia fans cackled when Tech kept going to bowls on the blue turf of exotic Boise. Tech fans with long memories are hoping like crazy Georgia lands in Shreveport, where every night is surf-and-turf at Red Lobster.
• The Tech fan’s favorite moment of 2009: Josh Nesbitt stealing the ball from a Florida State linebacker. The Georgia fan’s least favorite moment of 2009: Joe Cox flipping the ball to a Kentucky lineman.
• Georgia fans can’t understand what has happened to Mark Richt. Tech fans think what has happened to Mark Richt has a lot to do with Paul Johnson.
• Tech fans get really miffed if their team doesn’t wear gold. Georgia fans get really miffed if their team wears black helmets.
• Georgia fans still make fun of Tech’s (lack of) attendance. Tech fans figure that’s the last resort of a fading program: If you can’t beat ‘em on the field, outnumber ‘em in the stands.
• This season has Tech fans recalling the Bobby Dodd Era. This season has Georgia fans recalling the Ray Goff Era.

Paterno 3-9, 4-7 2003-2004
Patterson 6-6. 5-6 in 2004
So what if they’re all in top 10 for winning %, none can coach.

Yellow Fuzz doesn’t have a degree from GT nor does he attend GT…..can’t y’all tell by the way he writes? I mean come on. Yellow Fuzz is one of those skanky Tech fans that has NEVER even set foot on the hallowed grounds on N. Ave., except maybe to deliver a pizza to a dorm room.

“I’m not backing away from that, but what I’m trying to say is, it’s not going to end our season if we win or lose the game. I’m not going to let one game define my football season when I have to play 13 games.” Paul Johnson
Sounds like he’s setting himself and Tech for a failure on Saturday…Go Dawgs…first of seven straight starts on Saturday!!!

You always know when the dawg program is in decline. Dawgfans start quoting past history stats. I wonder if Rice fans still talk about its glory days in the ’30’s. Time to dust off the old “Lindsay Scott-Lindsay Scott” cassette (or do you have it on 8-track?) and relive the long-forgotten, faded glory. Tell us about Theron Sapp, Grandpa Dawg.
And by the way, if the Rambling Wreck breaks down from a faulty carburetor, we get a new carburetor and don’t make such a big deal about it. Get a new damn dog. You’ve got bigger problems.

Say, dawgs. Maybe they have some sort of BCS bracketology to determine best recruiting class. Y’all should win that every year. Then watch all that talent dissipate as soon as it hits that big ugly G.

Go figure…Yellow Fuzz will be by a “pole”. How fitting? “Talk down to you”? You have been in that postion many times before in life. I guess you consider when your UGA boss tells you to go get hima cup of coffee, you feel you are being “talked down to”? It is okay YF, everyone has their place in society.

The only people that talk are you guys, you’ve been hiding behind the buildings in downtown atl for years. Now you think your something since you beat a defense coached by the world renowned WILLIE MARTINEZ
It will be a shame if you don’t win this year because if you don’t it will be the last opportunity you have since Willie has gotten his plane ticket back to Miami Sunday.
