When will we wear the blue jerseys????

They were called the Bulldogs in the 19th century pursuant to the theory that Tech and Georgia were both part of the state university system and therefore should share the same mascot. As I sit here, I do not have a source to cite for you. They were also called the Blacksmiths well before being called the Yellow Jackets.

also used to describe Tech:
Engineers
Golden Tornado
Ramblin Wreck

here is something about UGa from Wikipedia:

The first mention of "Bulldogs" in association with Georgia athletics occurred on November 28, 1901, at the Georgia-Auburn football game played in Atlanta. The Georgia fans "had a badge saying 'Eat `em Georgia' and a picture of a bulldog tearing a piece of cloth";[1] however, it was not until 1920 that the nickname "Bulldog" was used to describe the athletic teams at the University of Georgia. Traditionally, the choice of a Bulldog as the UGA mascot was attributed to the alma mater of its founders and first president, who graduated from Yale University.[2] On November 3, 1920, Morgan Blake, a sportswriter for the Atlanta Journal wrote a story about school nicknames for football teams and proposed:
The Georgia Bulldogs would sound good because there is a certain dignity about a bulldog, as well as ferocity.[3]
Shortly thereafter, another news story appeared in the Atlanta Constitution in which the name "Bulldogs" was used several times to describe the Georgia football team and the nickname has been used ever since then.
 
Nice try, but I know this is a lie. You've taken issue with me for essentially nothing on one, maybe two other occasions

What were those?

Responses? I thought you didn't remember the other instance(s) of you getting feisty with me for no reason whatsoever.

Again, I can't tell you when you and I have had any other exchanges. You told me I had responded to you so I believed it. My willingness to believe you is not by any stretch some kind of admission that I remember whatever we had an exchange about. I do not deny that we had some exchange because I am willing to take your word for it, but I still don't remember what it was. Your user name does not jog my memory and it has simply not been a consideration for me on this thread. You are the one who initially responded to me on this thread, and when you did so, called me and my post "annoying."

You did something that pissed me off and I did something that pissed you off. I apologized. What you did is call me a liar, reject my apology, and refuse to offer one of your own. I even offered to stop posting at your command. I now renew that offer because that's how much it means to me to make sure that you feel okay about everything. I really don't think I have anything else to put on the table.
 
That image of GT in White/White/White is nasty (as in bad, or bad@%#, or wicked) or whatever the heck you kids say these days.
 
Are the white hemets fashioned after the Throw backs (70's).. are they the same lettering etc?
