Well he’s kinda right. We do act like rich assholes club whose most common comeback at their rivals is haha you don’t make as much money as me.
Yeah, I wish we would stop with that, it does us no favors. That's why the Waffle House association is good on many levels....really attacks the snobbery of our brand. Younger people are trending so much to "buy local". We should be like that cool microbrew that's hard to find, but very rewarding. How do we do that??
Positive press from a local media guy who has been around forever. I am gonna take it gladly rather than quibble.
This so much. In reality, the average GT alum probably does better than the average state-U dude but anybody, degree or not, can make more money than the average GT grad depending upon career/business choice, aspirations and luck. I dont know why we come at our rivals with this and truthfully I hope it is an old-school thing and not really a current taunt.
Trust me, as a sidewalk fan, I have had to explain my fanhood to alums. Some of which have never been season ticket holders, as opposed to my decades of season tix. Almost as if "why are you buying season tix, you aren't an alum". I just tell them I grew up supporting GT football. I should say "why don't you buy season tix"?
It is really sad, because it has already happened this year, when a GT grad asks ME for tickets to the UGAg game since I have 4 seats. Dude, buy your own damn tix. Mooch.
It’s more common than I’d like it to be. To the point where the kid washing my car the other day said “I bet you’re getting a kick out of watching a uga fan wearing a uga shirt washing your Corvette with the Tech plate.” I said “I’m sorry, I didn’t know you were allowed to talk to customers while washing their cars.”
While I can agree that our past coaches never embraced the Atlanta vibe like they should have, this does not excuse why you'll never find another city's press that öööös on the home team more than Atlanta does.
Well, the lead sports anchor for years at Atlanta's largest TV station was fingernails against the chalkboard, moron, Chuck Dowdle - UGAg grad and homer.
Randy Waters has been the only decent TV sports anchor in Atlanta for years. Fred Kalil and Ken Rodriguez seem neutral. The rest are Dwag fans/apologists.
He’s a friend and my friends usually have thicker skins than the average folk. Corndog met him. And took all his money at poker.
