Happy Birthday to Damon Evans and Aaron Murray, Two Damn Good 'Dawgs!

by T Kyle King on Nov 10, 2009 12:15 AM EST in Football

For me, at least, today is a busy day in what is going to be a busy week, so I can't afford to take Tuesday off, but, if you're a loyal booster of the Georgia Bulldogs and you're in a position to call in sick today, I strongly encourage you to do so, for today is an appropriate occasion for all loyal denizens of Bulldog Nation to take a holiday in celebration. (I really didn't mean to make that rhyme.)

On November 10, 1969, former Bulldog receiver and current Georgia athletic director Damon Evans was born. Anyone wishing to send appropriate "lordy, lordy, Damon's 40" birthday wishes to Evans may e-mail him here. (No, don't write him to tell him to fire Willie Martinez. It's the man's birthday; just write him to say happy birthday.)

On November 10, 1990, redshirt freshman quarterback Aaron Murray was born, as well, so all of us here at Dawg Sports send our best birthday wishes to a couple of damn good 'Dawgs.

Go 'Dawgs! Auburna delenda est!

It is bizarre

The guys we’re recruiting right now were born around the time Jurassic Park came out.

I tend to think of 1990 in terms of "Twin Peaks" . . .

. . . but, yeah, it’s amazing to think these kids weren’t born before Steve Spurrier returned to Gainesville.

Go 'Dawgs!

Well, guys born in 1990 are all 19 now, so the guys we’re actually following in high school right now would have been born 92-93ish, which is why I referenced Jurassic Park, the big movie that summer.

I remember the first time I noticed that a guy coming through rush had a 1970 birth date. It was one of those specific occasions when one instantly feels old.

I was a Twin Peaks devoté, but I was disappointed to discover that I could remember absolutely zero lines from the series. Several from the film prequel come to mind, however. “If I had a nickel for every cigarette your mother smoked, I’d be dead” (spoken by the non-Lara Flynn-Boyle Donna).
