7 UGA football players victims of locker room theft
Athens — Seven football players were victims of thefts at Butts-Mehre Heritage Hall, University of Georgia police confirmed Monday.
Jamel Allen, Kenarious Gates, Abry Jones, Jordan Love, Rhett McGowan, Alexander Ogletree and Shawn Williams all reported that items totaling $1,330 were stolen out of their lockers last Thursday afternoon, according to police reports. No players are expected to have been involved in the thefts.
“We haven’t ruled anything out but have no reason to suspect that,” UGA Police Lt. Eric Dellinger said.
Last Thursday afternoon the normally heavily-secured building — which requires fingerprint identification to access – was unsecured for “faculty appreciation day.” Here is a link to a UGA video report on that event.
All the items stolen were small electronic devices. The most expensive single item to go missing was the Apple iPhone 4 with red and black otter box belonging to Jones. It was valued at $500. One other iPhone and several iPods also were taken.
“It’s not uncommon for thefts to take place in secured buildings during events like this,” Dellinger said. “The lockers they were taken from weren’t locked.”
So far UGA detectives don’t have any suspects.

I have seen more G’s on hats, shirts, trucks, and flags in trailer parks than I have seen Auburn stuff. Funny a Dawg calling somebody else Trailer Park. Now that is just too damn funny.

I just don’t understand how losers like inconvenient truth come onto a UGA blog day after day and post the same inane drivel. They think it is funny yet no one is laughing.
The only laughs they get are from their girlfriends when they drop their pants.
Or their boyfriend.
Either way, laughter.
They ARE thankful that someone sees their rod since these losers have not seen it without the use of a mirror for over 10 years.
400 pound losers.

Herschel’s alter ego, Leothus “Crackdaddy” Jackson took it. When Herschel discovers this he will make Leothus bring the stuff back and apologize. Then he will beat the tar out of him.

Buying stuff for Terry Porter.
The ref who gave OSU the 2002 title with that bogus pass interference call vs Miami.
Terry is in the OSU Athletic Hall of Fame but the pay is not too good so Maurice helped him

Inconvenient Truth
Unfotunately for Tech, the final score at a football game does not include SAT scores. Tech fans are digging deep to find positive things to say about their program. Thats like the father of the ugliest girl in the beauty pageant bragging that his daughter doesn’t sweat half as much as other fat girls.

It couldn’t be a UGA player. Aren’t most of them already in jail?
Is there any good news coming out of Athens?

Stop using the R word. It is as offensive to R necks as the N word is to black folks.
STOP ALLOWING the use of REDNECK just like we have stopped the use of the N word.

Where do you think the saying came from, “Why buy the cow when the milk is free?”
Please tell me you just walk down the street and ask a girl to have sex and that is all it takes. It ALWAYS cost something if you are a male trying to get laid. Women don’t have to do much to get some.

Why buy the cow when you can rent for an hour from the farmer? I’ll bet that you have stump trained a few heifers in your time.

You know it was Ben Jones that attacked the Security Guard from behind. He was using the technique he used in the MSU game. I guess he thought the cops would do like coach Richt. You know. Do Nothing. I guess he was wrong.
