In good company. Good to be routinely considered again after 15 years of bowl uncertainty
@Orange. Do you mind posting this to the FF? I was going to, but this feels perfect if you'd like to do the honorView attachment 654660
Many of you know from the "Football Talk" thread, but there are a lot of posters who mostly stay in the recruits' threads and would like to know that @SweetasSoda has passed away after a sudden onset illness of about a month's duration. She posted in threads often and had many friends here. I don't want to post to every thread, and decided this would be a place where nearly everyone would see this message.
She called herself "the captain of the cheerleaders," and she was surely a bright, loyal, enthusiastic lover of Tennessee athletics, football and football recruiting most of all. A "Go Fund Me" account has been set up to help her family with funeral arrangements, if you would like to contribute. Please keep her family in your thoughts and prayers. It would probably be best if anyone who wanted to remember her in a brief message use the "SweetAsSoda GFM" or "Football Talk" threads, so recruits' thread are not run off-course.

Hi all, I've set up a GFM for our beloved cheerleader SaS, R.I.P. Our goal is 7k to help her husband and family with funeral expenses. Also feel free to share any memories of SaS here. Thanks all. https://gofund.me/af51e761www.volnation.com
I couldn't say what I said above from personal recollection like you did, but one of my points was that Tony not only trained Elander as a coach,He brought Elander to teach his philosophy with hitting…. TV was the reason I was so excited when he was hired… His philosophy with hitting and pitching is what it takes to be great. It has surpassed my expectations and they were very high when Tony took this job If/when Josh moves on…. TV will replace him with someone that shares that philosophy. I hope when Frank decides to retire that we create our own pitching lab.
And 8 consecutive titles for Boston from 59 to 66 too.Well...... allow me to retort.
5 of the Lakers titles were before they even moved to LA. They were the Minneapolis Lakers prior to 1960 and wore powder blue. They shouldn't even count the ones from when they were in Minnesota. That's some bama type championship claiming right there.
18 NBA titles for Boston
12 NBA titles for Los Angeles
