Uga VII, Georgia's beloved bulldog mascot, dies - CFB News - FOX Sports on MSN

I hate Georgia, but that sucks.

Uga VII, the University of Georgia football mascot, has died.

The university's sports information department has confirmed the mascot's death, according to Scout.com's Georgia web site, DawgPost.com. The cause of death was a heart attack, according to one published report.

Uga VII is an English bulldog, the latest in a line of solid-white bulldogs that have served as Georgia's football mascot since 1956.

Uga VII's first game was on Aug. 30, 2008 when Georgia faced Georgia Southern. That game was just two months after the previous University of Georgia mascot, Uga VI, died.

The Bulldogs went 16-7 during Uga VII's tenure, the shortest tenure of anyone in the Uga family.

He couldn't bear the thought of going 0-2 against Tech.

Sad. RIP Uga. He looked like a fun guy to play with.

I'm about as sad for this dog as all the ones I see on the side of the road.

So seeing dead dogs on the side of the road make you sad? If not, I think I could set you up with some of Vick's old crew.

Uga is hideous. God was having a bad day when he created bulldogs.

Pugs too...

That's just it. God didn't make bulldogs or pugs. We did.

We are morons. You'd think after you ran the dog's head into a wall enough times to get that nose, it'd have died of concussions. But no...We bred them.:no:

All my UGlyA friends are posting condolences on facebook. They say he died earlier today of a heart ailment. I am trying my best to be a friend but it is so hard. I want to crack so many jokes it's pitiful. I basically said " I'm dying to say something (no pun intended) but I won't. I'll be good on this one". Any tactful suggestion on a joke or two will be appreciated.

I bet UGA VII got on the field more times this year than Marlon Brown.

Poor old UGA laid down and died because he couldn't bear to watch the pathetic excuse of a football team any more.

 

[manfromtn]

It wouldn't be cool in any way to throw jokes at them about this. I wouldn't want jokes thrown if/when Smokey died.

Sad. I respect the dog more than the team.

He tried to transfer to missSt then realized he'd be better off dead.

Classless. Some of you guys sound like the Gamecock fans. No matter how much I dislike Georgia there is no place for jokes about losing a pet.
