Aside from a couple of members on here; this discussion board is very "unwelcoming" to posters of other fan bases; even though I haven't made one negative comment about a Tennessee player or coach. The business model for most internet discussion boards is to attract more members/participants; especially ones who are capable of carrying on a discussion in a civil manner. I'll never understand why some fans get so worked up over a game played mostly by 18 to 22 year olds; and on the recruiting side we're talking about mostly 14 to 17 year olds that can have a new favorite team after every visit.

All team message boards are like that. I do agree fans get too upset over others opinions.

Unfortunately for you, most of the UGA fans that have been here prior to you have been Grade A douchebags, with the exception of one or two. You've been very respectful but you are having to overcome some pretty big piles of poop that have been dumped on here by some of your fellow dog fans.

I'd rather deal with the obnoxious (but honest) Tidewarriors,Bamawriters and 99Gators of the world than Eddie Haskell starter kits like this clown,ZDT and Palmer. "Your team sucks...and always will!" versus "Group hugs! Isn't football swell?" :huggy:

I'll respect you (but still talk smack) when my BS meter isn't going off. :yuck:

GreysonDawg and ZDT don't strike me as similar at all. ZDT is an obnoxious jerk whose sole purpose is to come here and bump player threads and gloat about UGA recruiting, even when it involves a kid for which Tennessee wasn't a serious contender.

I haven't gotten that sense from GreysonDawg, but maybe I've missed it.

You don't have any relatives who are from Alabama do you? :)

I agree. GreysonDawg is more than welcome here, IMO. He's up there with the LittleCat's and HialeahGator's of the world.

He's pacing himself. :).

Telltale sign is anytime a criticism of Kirby Smart is levied. I don't begrudge any fan their defense of a new hire. No one KNOWS how a coach will perform until they've built a case history. At least acknowledge that Smart doesn't have such history...as a HC. When he starts reciting our record under Dooley and whatnot as a defense of this new hire, you have to call him on it. I defended Butch's chance to prove himself for our team. I didn't do so on other boards. Begs a response. :hi:

His jab seemed to be a little playful to me. Maybe you shouldn't be so sensitive while visiting other teams' message boards? :dunno: Most on here appreciate the conversation and perspective; but don't expect hugs. We're still rivals. :hi:

Thank youuuuu

Even though I detest the Grayson Rams and Georgia Bulldogs both, GreysonDawg is alright. He's just taking up for his team. Why he would spend so much time on a rival team's board is beyond me, but he is consistently respectful to us. If my retort came off as disrespectful, my bad.

What the other posters are saying, however, is true. How respectful would other sites be to us? I commend Freak for even allowing rival posters on here. It adds some perspective. But I'm gonna talk some $#!+ to them while they're here.

Have you been on a UGA board? I have no trouble at all seeing why he would be on here instead of one of theirs.

Agreed. Go look at some of HialeahGator's posts to reference how to get along here, and you will do well. (Even though he is a vol in gator skin.)

HG was originally a Vol but he had a tragic accident while trolling the Gator board one day and is now stuck in a false Gator limbo reality.

The reason you hadn't seen it, is because I never wrote it. I just went back and read all my post and I never recited Tennessee's record under Dooley and "what not as a defense of this new hire". The only time I have ever mentioned Dooley is in regards to Pittman getting caught up in the coaching change when Dooley was fired. I have no idea what Tennessee's record was under Dooley, nor do I care.

I said. " and whatnot" also...covers everything. Pull your black and red panties back up Francine. :)

One day I was pretty hard up and I had to wipe my butt with a predominantly red and black page from one of those free Trading Post magazines that you can find in high class convenience stores... Does that count?

Absolutely counts. Once you were done wiping, it actually looked just like one of the UGA boards. :)

UGA wants Gibbs bad

Dawgs247 has confirmed some news on Thursday morning.

Georgia is gaining mid-summer transfer in Tulsa DB J.R. Reed. Reed is 6-foot-2, 175 pound prospect that has signed with UGA and set to enroll in August.

At this time it looks that Reed will sit out this season.

Reed has some connections to the state of Georgia. He is the cousin of the state's top prospect Deangelo Gibbs.
