"We cant stop anybody right now" direct coach from hbc Derek Dooley following the loss on saturday. Fumbled punt, fumbled kick, int, and fumbled snap all led to points for uga. throw in a couple of aaron murry scores and we got whooped. maybe we can get healthy and start playing better down the stretch. could potentially finish the season with only 4 wins (memphis, vandy being the other two) bama, ole miss, kensucky, and socar could all be losses. however kensucky, socar, and ole miss could all be wins too. nick reveiz is terrible. much like ryan karl and dane bradshaw before him. as a coach yes please give me the kid that will play hard and do anything to help his team win- but as a fan- H-E- Double Hockey sticks no- give me a player with talent. talent wins in college. But we will see. we knew that this was going to be a tough year but we have a lot of problems for football- is it basketball season yet??
bama is still the best team. auburn and lsu are crazy.
Defending my Reds...
Look they didnt become the #1 offense in the NL by just beating the bad teams- its an average for the year. they were also the #2 defense in all of baseball. when you dont score in two games including only the 2nd no hitter in baseball postseason history it makes it tough to win and your defense commits four errors including one each by our gold glove winning second baseman and thrid baseman (only the 3rd time a team has made that many errors in the postseason) makes it tough. But lets not get too carried away- my reds are good and could be really really good next year. We have an ace in edinson volquez 4-0 in sept with under a 2 era (people forget he came back from tommy john) plus a really good #2 in big game bronson. 17 wins on the year and eats a ton of innings. close out our rotation with johnny cueto- who is on the cusp of being a top flight pitcher himself who has had several flashes of briliance. then homer (young power pitcher bailey) and one of two rookies Lefty travis wood and right mike leake. hopefully next year old man aaron harang will be gone. in the pen sir arther, bill bray from the left. chops (jarred burton) logan ondrusek and nick masset from the right. coco cordero will probably be back and he kind of sucks but is a "big time closer" and oh yeah we have the cuban missile with chapman.
1st base- mvp joey votto, 2nd base- gold glove brandon phillips, ss- orlando cabrera veteran guy. hopefully we will finally let bphil play ss and get rid of cabrera and let either chris valakia or paul janish play 2nd. 3rd- thank you walt jockety- scott rolen. played like a man all year and will get another gold glove. of- gomes (clutch) drew stubbs (better than braves superstar jason heyward, and jay bruce who finally figured out how to hit. watch out. the big red machine is back!
wedding on saturday so this could be my last post for a while.

Orange Colored Glasses 2.0- UAB/LSU
How about this for irony- the game we won-felt like a loss, and the game we lost-felt like a win. Before things get any further, let me remind you that before the season i said that we would lose to Oregon, Florida, LSU, SoCar, and Bama- so far im right. But also- lets be honest and ask yourself this question- how many teams with 3 coaches in 3 years and play 3 top ten teams win any games? not many. there are few programs in the nation that would be able to beat 3 top ten teams all year Bama and Oregon. period. Ducks and a clear number two team in the nation IMO. Im glad that we did beat UAB because 1-4 just sucks- ask your buddies at jawja. What irks me about that game is we allowed 544 yds from the blazers- are you kidding me? ducks, gators, dawgs, tide, tigers- teams like that i would understand- but the blazers! i think that they play in conf USA- maybe. I also think that people need to give Matt Simms some credit he takes more hits than any UT qb that i can remember. plus he has a very inexperienced offensive line and without gerald jones or luke stocker most of the year (jones to injury stocker to...??where has he been?)
I do give derek dooley credit. i was not a fan of his- i didnt hate him, but after kiffin- who i was never really sold on ( ok with his tactics, but just not sure that that is what UT needs) i didnt want to give my fandom away so quickly. but he came in a got a solid recruiting class and is working on another pretty good one as well. And i know that we have gotten some big time play out of 2 star prospects (dennis rogan and montori hughes come to mind) but look at the teams that win titles- they also win in recruiting. Florida, Alabama, Texas, USC, Ohio St (ok maybe not the suckeyes, but the rest of them). However ive taken some heat from facebook people about my stance on defensive coordinator justin wilcox- he needs to go- and i stand by that. the inability to stop read option, allowing 544 yds to uab, crossing routes, 3rd/4th and long teams converting more than not, and all out poor tackling by our defense. and people can say "well look at what he has to play with" and "he had better players at boise" not true. boise has never had a top 25 class, and only one top FIFTY class in the history of the program. go look it up right now they arent even in the top 50. he didnt have better players, he might have had better schemes, or asst coaches or luck, but not better players. ps speaking of better players...let me give you a list of starting qbs in the sec better than heisman hopeful kellen moore at boise. 1- ryan mallet 2- greg mcelroy 3- randall cobb 4- steven garcia 5- matt simms 6- aaron murry 7- jeremiah masoli 8- brantley/burton 9- chris relf 10- jefferson/lee 11- cam newton. yeah a weak armed lefty qb doesnt make it in the sec...
ok here it is. bama made florida look like little boys and is the best team in the nation. lsu doesnt know what to do (oh btw give me thier athletes- because they win inspite of coaching 5-0...) auburn could be scary next year and are pretty good this year. i have no idea what is going on at georgia. shoelace robinson is pretty good at michigan- but they suck on defense and he doesnt deserve the heisman.
twins upset yanks, rays beat rangers, giants beat braves and my reds play the phils...we will see. votto for mvp
