Already some crazy rivalry stuff yesterday, I expect to see more today.

Sure wish our game were earlier, I really don't want to wait all day long.  I'll be watching other games and putting up Christmas decorations, that should help pass the time.

I keep forgetting yesterday was Friday, so my internal stress is "off", sort of, I can watch games and enjoy whatever happens.  Cool.

It's a frigid almost intolerable 33°F here right now.  I'm not sure I will survive.

After the Dawgs fell behind like 77-6 last night, I switched over to watching Apollo 13 with my wife.  This new cable box apparently comes with a bunch of free movie channels (???) and better reception, but her TV upstairs doesn't have one yet, we get one "free", the second is $130.  The good news is I was paying $7 a month for the second box, that should go away.

My TV must be 10+ years old, it's a 1 K 65", and it looks really good now.  This probably saved me $2500.

Fans on the winning side don't often complain about officiating ...

yup, feels like Monday after two days "off"
I have no plans for today, except watching some football on the 65" TV

I checked a 75 incher yesterday, but it won't fit on my current cabinet/table whatever

13 degrees here with chance of flurries - I'll stay inside

I have an option to sign up for a black market illegal streaming TV service.  Every channel there is.  Movie channels, NFL Ticket, MLB, everything.  $120/year but you pay 2 years in advance - $240.  You get two Fire Sticks. so Two TVs.  About once a quarter or less they change the scrambling on a few bigtime channels....... you simply call the number to let them know and in a few minutes it's resolved.

Gonna hit 65 here this afternoon, back into the 50s at kickoff.  You folks would call that "nice early September weather" I imagine.

When there is bad officiating, do "they" come back the next day and reverse the final result?

no, someone from the league office calls the coach or AD on Monday and apologizes for the bad call.

the loss stands

High of 72 today.

62 at the present.

Lots of disappointed visitors, I'm sure.

I "get" complaining about bad calls, we've all done it, I was pretty bad when I played.  I can see posting something about them, and then life goes on, nothing changes as a result, I suspect it makes the poster feel justified for a minute, and then frustrated.

Dawg fans still complain about a bad call in the '99 game.

UGA won, kinda.
